Recommendation of Lawmakers.

A sample of the manner in which
men, W hen left entirely to their own de-
vices, seek to promote morality amongst
themselves and protect the chastity of
woman by.legislative enactment, is wit
messed in the following extract from an
eastern journal: .....
Thomas Cooper Campbell, Leo c.
Dessar, John IT. McGowan, and Jacob
Hess, members of committee of the
New York State Legislature, have united
in a recommendation to license prosti-
tuition. They say: "Houses of prOstitu-
ton must exist and will continue to ex-
ist. o. We do not doubt that
prostitution necessarily will exist.
Human nature is so constituted
that prostitution will continue.
Whatever may be the Odium incurred
by the suggestion among honest people
: the Committee are willing to take
it upon themselves in recommending
the regulating, or permitting, or, if the
word be not deemed offensive, the Ii
censing of prostitution. As to
terms, the Committee are not tenacious.
If anybOdy's conscience can be soothed,
his moral doubts assuaged, by dropping
the word 'license" and using the word
regulation" the Committee have no
earthly objection, but that the objection
to the substance of the proposition is an
ill-founded one we cannot doubt. 1t be-
hooves legislators to take the world as
il is. Prostitution being indi-
rectIy recognized by the law, the houses
and inmates being registered, the police
captains, only authority over them
would be to see that they lived harm
IessIy and in obedience to the law. Such
a system would prevent all street-walk-
ing, all indecent exposures of every
kind. Any prostitute who was
guilty of such an offense should have
her permit taken away, should be sent
to Jail, and every house whence such
demonstrations issued should have it's
permit taken away and its inmates dis
persed. In addition to these reasons,
the institution should be under medical
supervision"

A NOBLE WOMAN.

To THE EDITOR OF THE NEW NoRTHw EST:
Considering your columns most fit
ting place for the record Of the self-sac-
rificing deeds of devoted woman, I
presume to furnish the following recital
to your readers:
Mrs. Charles Walker, lady residing
in the eastern part of Washington Ter
ritory, whose husband has long been
missing, and is supposed to have been
drowned in the Columbia River near
The Dalles some months since, recently
heard that the remains of a man had
been found near tne place mentioned,
brought to Portland, and placed in
charge of Coroner Wetmore, who held
the same for Identification by friends.
Circumstances leading her to suppose
this to be her husband, she quickly pro-
vided for the welfare of her family OF
six children and started for Portland, a
distance of two hundred and fifty miles.
The first fifty miles were made on horse
back and the remainder by stage and
steamboat, the entire journey being
made without an escort. In due time
she arrived at her destination and was
conducted to the place where the body
was kept by the coroner on the morning
after her arrival. She carefully exam.
ined the few remaining shreds of cloth
ing and teeth of the deceased, and at the
conclusion of her sad and shocking
task, said that she could not, upon the
evidence so adduced, swear to the iden.
tity of the melancholy wreck before her
choosing rather to lose $1,000 (tht
amount of insurance on the life of he
husband) than to testify without suff
cient conviction as to his identity. Tht

PETTY DEsP0FTsM.

Even in these days, when Centennial
freedom is to be met with in every par
agraph of current literature, and Cen
tennial buncombe is retailed on every
street corner, we are reminded that
freedom, in its largest and noblest
sense, is a myth, and that petty despot-
ism, in divers forms and apparel, rules
and reigns. This despOtism is various
in kind and degree. First is the despot-
ism of custom, which says, without re-
gard to fitness, this is your work; that
is mine; this is your place; that is
mine. Then the despotism of society,
which forbids all independence of action
and, as far as possible, of thought, that
fain would Danish intelligence and re-
finement if their proprietors chanced to
be plainly clad; that makes slaves OF
the votaries of fashion. Then we have
political despotism, that gives the gov
erning and law-making power entirely
into the hands of one sex; the despot-
ism of art, that sneers at those who are
not already distinguished; the despot-
ism of literature, that would Danish the
productions of all lower or less re-
nowned than Bryant, or others who
have made for themselves a name and
place in the world of letters. Indeed,
when we view this subject, we are con-
strained to the belief that there is a
spark of ,despotism in every human
soul, which, if fostered and fed, glows
into flame more or less fierce, accord
ing to the manner in which it is fed,
while true liberty exists only as it
meets, gives battle, and overcomes the
daily exhibitions of petty tyranny,
which are born of, as well as fostered
and nursed by selfishness. % .l

A STIRRING GALL.

Miss Anthony has written to Mrs.
Duniway, informing her that she is to
be one of the principal orators of the
day, on the coming Fourth of July, in
the shadow of Independence Hall,
where the National Woman Suffrage
Association is to meet to protest against
the tyranny of taxation without repre-
sentation." 1--WE depend upon you, and
you must come" writes Susan. "This
protest must be uttered on historic
grounds in this Centennial year of mems
independence, and its echo will be re-
peated over aud over among the tax
paying and unrepresented women OF
America, till its reverberations are
heard and needed from Maine TO farthest
Oregon" Mrs. Duniway has taken the
matter under advisement, and will re-
port progress of the plan in week OF

AN OPEN CONFESSION.

Mindful of the adage that "an open
confession is good for the souI,'' ask
the privilege of embodying confession
in short article which 1 hope you will
find space for in the NEW NORTHWEST.
My wife has been for few months a
subscriber to your paper, although-and
this is confession number one-she be-
came one without my knowledge or
consent. To tell the truth, when the
first number came, was surprised and
vexed, and told her that if she would
insist on taking it another year, that 1
would burn every copy that came into
the house. This state of feeling con-
tinued until one day, my wife being
away from home, 1 picked up copy OF
the paper and, glancing over it, saw an
article headed "Dissension in Families, u
which so exactly suited my own case,
that / felt constrained to admit that one
article, at least, was not only true, but
just. This discovery encouraged me to
look over back numbers that were laid
away, and to my surprise found that
the views expressed were just the oppo-
site of what 1 supposed the paper con-
tained, and that could cheerfully en-
dOrse them almost stentirely. "Woman's
rights" which from prejudice, associa-
ton, ridicule, etc., 1 had always be-
lieved to be the most peace-disturbihg
doctrine that could be promulgated, as
sumed new light in the plain, just, and
well-chosen language in which 1 now
saw it set forth, and I feel that owe
you an apology for the many bitter, uu-
reasonable prejudices have entertained
against you and the cause you are SO
bravely working for. The experience
here related convinees me that to over
come prejudices existing against Wom-
an Suffrage, men who are disposed tc
be just to their wives, mothers and
daughters, (as most men, notwithstand-
ing the tyranny of custom, are), need
only to see the subject in its true light
divested of all of the absurdities thai
ignorance throws around it, to cause
them to favor the equal rights of women
with even more earnestness than they
now oppose them. A. E. FOSTER.
