A FEMALE ACADEMY. -

From correspondence in the OregO-
Ricn, We learn that several Salem ladies
are interesting themselves in a project
TO establish a "female academy" \
society to further the object has been
organized, with Mrs. W. II. Odell as
President. The Vice Presidency has
been offered TO Mrs. Jos. Holman, and
Mrs. Lambert, wife Of Professor Lam
bert, has been rendered the Office of
Corresponding Secretary. Prominent
ladies connected with church organiza-
tions have been requested to aid in Sc
curing the necessary funds, which are
to be applied in fitting up building
near the Capitol and establishing therein
boarding Professors Tower
aud Lambert are prominent movers Of
the enterprise. 1t will be conducted
chiefly under the auspices Of the Meth
odist Episcopal Conference and remotely
connected with the Willamette Univer-
sity.
Doubtless the ladies' who are the
prime movers in this enterprise are ac-
tuated by honest motives, but We hope
they will fail in their object. We are
opposed 10 schools where the sexes are
separated. There is no reason in keep
ing apart during their education men
and women who are 20 be together dur
ing the remainder Of their lives. With
all the testimony which has lately ap-
peared in favor OF the co-edueation Of
the sexes, it is surprising that there can
be found persons who wish to establish
institutions where sex ia the chief req
uisite, or the great obstacle, to admis-
sion. Very frequently we hear Of a
young lady's running away from a
boarding school to wed some chap Of
whom she has no chance to know any
thing; but We do not remember a single
instance Of an elopement in which the
bride attended a school in the company
OF gentlemen. The inmates OF a college
for men only are always more unruly
than when the presence of ladies forces
them to proper observance Of the rules
Of conduct. The remark can easily be
modified to apply TO the exclusive
schools for young ladies. The good ma
tured rivalry which exists between the
sexes is a fruitful source Of excellent
recitations where co-edgcation exists.
We would much prefer to know that
the ladies above mentioned were at
tempting TO increase the patronage Of
Willamette University. Young ladies
and gentleman who walks together 20
the school-house or university; who oc-
cupy desks in the same room and reclte
in the same class; who stand side by
side at the same blackboard aud puzzle
their brains over the same problems /;
who toll over the same troublesome
/ points in the languages; who, when
the days sessions are over, stroll to-
/ gether from the school aud discuss their
studies-ihese young people are not dis
| posed 20 be foolish regarding each other,
as are the inmates Of schools where per-
sons Of but one sex are admitted.
Let US not have another school for
the exclusive use OF one sex, we pray
I you, ladies Of Salem.

OPIuM SMOKING.

From the report Of the Chief OF Police,
which we have already spoken Of freely
elsewhere, We learn some startling facts
in reference to the habit Of opium smok-
ing. There are, so the report informs
us, large number OF secret dens, kept
principally by Chinese, where men aud
women, young men and girls-some not
over thirteen years Of age-congregate
and Indulge in the vile and loa;hsome
habit and sleep or the stupor. The re-
port further says that some Of the
women who visit these deus have fami-
lies, and some Of them are girls belong
ing TO the most respectable classes of
society. the public is further Informed
that the publication OF the names OF
these women would cause society to
stand amazed. We agree with the Chief
OF Police that more stringent and severe
measures should be taken to break up
these dens Aud we do not doubt that
the publication Of the names Of all
opium smokers as fast as discovered
would have a salutary and lasting effect
in circumscribing the evil, 50 as to keep
il within its present boundaries. But
why hint at exposing the women aud
letting the men go free? Is tile sin Of
opium smoking any worse when a
woman commits il than when a man is
guilty? II so, why so? Will Chief
Lappeus enlighteu US?

RESPECTFUL CONSIDERATION. -

This term was originated by the Re
publicans for use in their national plat
form, to retain in the party ranks those
who are in favor Of Woman Suffrage,
and not drive Off its opponents BY
giving respectful consideration" to the
just demands OF women, discussion and
study Of the subject Of womau's rights is
caused, IsRd many an opponent Of the
beneicehB measure is won over to its
advocacy. The expression in itself is
not very encouraging but the ambigu-
Gus words give hope to the champions
OF the cause that, as the justice and
right OF the question are better under
stood, We may iD a short time get some
definite assistance. The Republicans
having recognized the cause, even in an
equiyocal way, the Democrats are
bound TO treat it courteously, even il
they make no acknowledgment in their
platform. The latest respectful con-
sideratiOn" which has been accorded TO
the movement is permission by the
Senate Judiciary Committee for dele
gates Of the National Woman Suffrage
Association TO present oral arguments
tomorrow in behalf Of the proposed con-
stitutionai amendment giving women
the right TO vote. The cause is so far
advanced that men can advocate in
Congress constitutional amendment
for universal political equality without
being held up to ridicule; that the
matter can be referred 20 the Senate Ju-
dietary Committee; that prominent
women can personally advocate the
claims Of the measure. Verify, the sin
gle floating plank thrown on the sea Of
public opinion by the Republican party
will return fEeighted with liberty and
justice.

FRANK LEsLIE,s WILL.

Frank Leslie's will has been fled in
the Surrogate's Office in New York City.
He bequeaths all his real and personal
property aad his trademarks to bis
wife, Marion Florence Leslie. He pub
lished some periodicals for the young
that should be tabooed in every house
in the land, and also some creditable
newspapers. However, his errors are
in a measure coudoued by the act Of
justice in treating his vile as an equal
human being. But his son, If tue tele-
graph reports are correct, is not imbued
with the idea that his mother is an
equal individual with his father. The
son will contest the will. If the mother
had died, aud the fsther had assumed
control Of the community property, the
sou would doubtless have not enter
| tanned the thought tnat he was entitled
to share of il. But custom AMI the
desire Of every person for wealth have

by the children who have so long re-

which sanction, protect and uphold
children in this injustice to one parent
belong to the dark ages, and should be
relegated back to oblivion.

TIE TRAININe THAT GIRLS NEED

Mrs. Abba Could Woolson has been
giving Boston some common-sense no.
tions about "The Training that Girls
Need" In a paper read before the
Moral Education Society, she pro-
nouuced ill-health q luxury that euor-
mously increased the cost Of living.
She advised mothers 70 keep their girls
from their own fate, and she asserted
that girls should be made TO lead a
quiet life on a simple diet until they are
fully grown that they should exercise
freely ia the open air; that housework
should be done by them in carefully
ventilated rooms that their dress
should be radically changed so that no
longer shall their vital organs be com
pressed, or their hips weighed down
with a mass of cloth that no man would
willingly carry. Compliance with these
rules, She believed, would give to the
world a nobler, healthier race OF women.
The object Of a girls mental training
should be, she said, to enable her 10

superficial ideas. The processes, applied
20 women minds, that are now devoted
70 the education Of men. she considered
would bring the same results. She ad-
vised that girls pursue with thorough.
ness the disci iplinary studies. Next to
this she would place the perceptive fac
ulties, in which woman is now much
more proficient than man. Women
should also be acquainted more or less
intimately with physiology, natural
philosophy, the laws Of mechanics
chemistry, political economy, the char
acteristics Of a republican form Of gov
ernmeut, rhetoric aud natural sciences
all Of which are far more important Ia
the girl than the modern languages
First Of all parental duties Mrs. Wool
son placed that Of fitting children, and
especially girls, to earn an honorable
living, no matter how wealthy their
family may be, since DO one is beyond
the reach Of possible poverty.

The Olympia Standard wishes TO
know why il is that no age has pro-
duced any great lady composers. There
are excellent writers and talented
artists among the gentler sex, but none
whose souls seem welded to harmony, or,
rather, who are capable Of creating the
sublime works which have wreathed
the names Of the masters Of every land
in garlands Of undying melody. Why
is il? The gentler nature Of woman
seems peculiarly adapted for striking
the keynote Of the heart her tender
sensibilities would appear to be exceed
ingly capable Of receiving and express
ing those delicate shades Of feeling
which fairly transport the soul by their
magic spell; but it is not so. Her Lutte
is unstrung, and she sits idly by while
her brothers scale the temple Of Fame;
her name passes into oblivion, while
around his life memory fingers like
sweet incense to hailow his works.

The Walla Walla Watchman tells Of
a certain lady teacher il the lower dis
triet school Of that city, who is in trou-
bic because an unruly boy in her charge
has been stoning the Sisters School
aud thereby bringing her school into
disrepute. We are not surprised "a
learn that boys in this teachers charge
have an utter contempt for women and
girls. She believes that men alone
should make laws and rule women
and, as "the child is father to the mau,'
the one under consideration has been
giving her a practical example Of his
estimate Of the subjugated class. Wen
venture the assertion that the son OF
pupil Of no well-bred Woman Suiragist
would bring his parents or teacher
into disgrace by throwing stones at a
school for girls.
