their leading spirits are stirring III

sentiment of the country-especiall
of the better class Of women il it,
against the woman's right theories
these agitators persist in thrusting
themselves and their demands upon
public attention. OF course they
have a right to do so; it is only a
question Of propriety and taste,
There are some brilliant and proba'
bly, excellent women, engaged in the
cause. Its is singular that such
women as Mrs. Stanton, Miss An
thony, Mrs. Blake, Mrs. Gage, Mrs.

commit the blunder of excluding
men as advocates in their cause
and of taking up the better part OF
their time in denouncins some class
of male citizens who have the ball
lot. There are many inconsistent
cies illustrative of the natural and
physical laws which exist as a stand
ing barrier to the achievements of
this ''equal rights" doctrine. One
of the ladies who addressed q SEN
ate committe most earnestly in favor
of the rights of women which aecor-
ding to her creed, is no more nor
less than simply to place them on al
equality with men, had only the day
before complained quite bittery that
ladies going into the Senate galleries
did not receive proper attention
from the doorkeepers. A gentleman
now here relates an incident in his
own experience developing the same
Inconsistency in the advocates OF
woman's rights. Some time ago he
travelled in a Pullman car with Miss
Anthony and Mrs. Stanton, two of
the ladies who addressed the Senate
committee. They had discoursed to
him most eloquently for an hour or
two on the rear platform-where
they all sat enjoying the scenery
on the injustice of the denial of
equal rights to women, but when he
lighted a cigar objection was most
strenuously made, and he was treat
ed to a severe lecture for not having
due regard for the presence of ladies.
