leaders of the party now think it wise to act
on the defensive. The cause is very appar-
ent and can be easily comprehended. The
German vote of the State is fully one-third
of the total vote, and circumstances now
point to the fact that fully seven-eighths OF
this vote will be cast for Cleveland ard
Hendricks. A comprehensive view can be
had when one considers the way the Ger
mans have been voting
In Recent State Elections.
Fully two thirds of their vote has been cast
with the Republicans. One of the leading
Judges in this district, Republican, frank
ly acknowledged but few days ago that
unless the Republicans could stop the rush
OF Germaus to Cleveland's support WiscOn-
sin would 60 Democratic. In this opinion
his opinion he is eminently sound and his
observations indicate that he is right. An
other and difficult faction the Republicans
must contend against is the prohibition
vote. The prohibitionist have placed full
state and congressional ticket in the field,
and their vote viii in oil probability reach
eight or ten thousand, the greater msjority
of this vote coming from the Republican
ranks. There is no use trying to disguise
these facts. Mr. Blaine is not popular with
the great mass of Republicans in this state
and consequently they do not enthuse.
Opposition to the Republican Machine.
This State at its last election by con-
gressional districts went Democratic. The
Democrats are everywhere united and en-
thusiasnc, and never more confident. With
n. D. Fratt, of Racine, at its head, their
ticket is strong one. Jerry Rust the Re-
publican gubernatorial candidate, acknowl-
edges closely contested fight ahead, with
the chances against him.
At the grand Independent rally here,
there was seen on the stand during Mr..
Schurz' speech such men as ex-senator
land late Republican candidate for Mayor,
N. P. Wing DR., Knute Hoegh, one of the
leading. Norwegian Republicans in Western
Wisconsin, and many others who are de-
2ouncing Blaine. The Republicans can i'll
afford to lose these men. The Independents
are hard at work. Their vote in this State
is estimated at 5000

4 POINT About THE ADIRONDACK RES
ERV4TION

A great handle is made by some of the oppo-
ncnts Of Adirondack legislation OF the fact
that the proposed boundary of the Reservation
includes some villages and farming lands. So
far rs this is sincere it is based on total mis-
conception Of what Forest Reservations are.
They are not solitudes in which there can be no
numbering or mining or charcoal burning, or
gathering of turpcntine or tan-bark. On the
contrary. scientifically administered forest
begins from the first to increase the quantity
and improve the quality of all its products. 1t
is not the aim of the proposed legislation 10 di-
minish forest industries, but to regulate them
so as 10 make the output more abundant, more
varied more rcmuncratiye, and, above all, more
permanent 1t is like the perennial, evenly
flowing streams which such forestry preserves
AS contrasted with the alienation OF floods and
drouths which forest butchery brings in its
train. The products are not rushed for short
time upon gluttcd markets. feverish activity
sure to result ere long in scarcity and famine
prices.
One of the strongest arguments used with the
farming population of France by the advocates
of the refOresting or rcbOiSemept law of 1850
was this: that in the winter season their boys
could find occupation in the woods at fair wages
and near home, instead of being obliged to seek
ii in distant towns in which, at that time of
year, labor was apt to be drug. If the farmers
and local tradesmen of Northern New York
knew what a properly managed Adirondack
Reservation would do in furnishing perma-
nent market for labor and farm products, be-
sides the stimulus which it would give to sum-
mer travel, they would eagerly plead for tho
most thorough going measures to stop the de-
struction of the North Woods.
The Compromise" bill which has just been
introduced by Mr. Lansing in the Senate does
not go far enough, but it is perhaps the best
thing which can be secured at this session. Let
every friend Of agriculture and commerce in
both houses think twice before he goes on the
record against it.

4 CONTRAST.

Mr. M0rrisOn's report is not strong one, even
in the estimation of his party friends. But
great allowance should be made for the extreme
difficulty of his position. The conflicting opin-
ions within his party, the necessities of a Pres
idential campaign, the certainty that step in
one direction will cost the party the electoral
votes of several great States, and the unccr
tainty whether the party itself can be moved in
the opposite direction without disruption
these things make Mr.. MOrrisOn's task hard
one. If he has not done well, it may be fair to
say that no living man could have met a com.
plication so extraordinary without great cmbar-
rassmcDt. When a man is riding fractions
mule. uncertain whether the creature may not
bolt at any moment, and is close to the edge of a
precipicc. but cannot see where the edge is he
may be pardoncd for some loss OF dignity.
The report of the Republican minority is en-
trcly free from INDIGESTION on cquNOcdtlOn. IL
is clear strong, ably reasoned and brief enough
to De widely read and appreciated. The con-
iIast between the two reports only sets forth
the contrast between the two political parties
from which they come. The Democratic party
has tortured itself for years to find some mode
of cvading this issue, and has not been able.
The Republican party Is heartily united IN up
holding its latest enactment as whole, and IN
welcoming verdict of the people upon 1t. The
Democrats cannot agree; the Republicans arc
agreed. The Democrats do not dare to ayow
their own purposes; the Republicans have

Uouay IN The HONOR LIST.

Perbaps the most significant indication OF the
influence of modern ideas that has been given at
all is the announcement that the University OF
Oxford has formally admitted women to the ex-
aminations, and by consequence to place IN
the honor list. Twenty years ago such step
ms this would have been not merely impossible,
but prcpostcrous. 1t would not have been dis
cussed seriously 10y the authorities or the pub
lie. But now the Congregation meets and gravely
delibeIates over the proposition to admit
women TO the examinations on equal terms; and
Notwithstanding the advancement OF all the
old fashioned objections Notwithstanding the
airing of the staple predictions OF evil the
statute was adopted, and to-day the great
change is in operation. CuriOusly enough, the
Oxford Congregation made this important con
ccssion at about the same tine that the name of
Miss Octavia Hill was rejected as a member Of
the Royal Commission on tie housing OF the
poor for no conceivable reason other than her
sex. There is no doubt that she understands
the question better than any man in the United
Kingdom but unfortunately she is woman,
and so, in n country where another woman
rcigns, Miss Hill is ineligible to sit on Royal
Commission.
The action Of Oxford is 4 sharp rcbukC to that
kind of d-fogyism, as well as Icing great en-
enlargement for the friends OF e Iual opportunl-
ties for women everywhere. 1t is "A great deal to
have overcome the conservatism which took
shelter in the stereOtyped prctences that women
were not fitted by nature for this, that and the
other study or occupation or pursuit. Hence
forth, so far rs the University Of Oxford is con
cerned. all such considerations will be dis
penscd with, and women will be free to expert
mcnt on their own capabilities, and to demon
strate, in the only practical way. what they can
or cannot do. No doubt the example of Oxford
will prove contagious. 1t is humiliatng to re-
fleet how many good people depend more for
guidance upon powers and principalities than
upon their own reason. That which was only
tolerated before will become popular now, and
the education of woman will take a new de-
parture in England.
The London Times remarks in an article on
the new event: The Reformation swept away
"the nunneres without alfording women any
compensation in colleges, endowed schools
" or religious foundations The University Of
"Oxford itself, after being founded by hummer
~ics, has lived for ages on their spoil" Now
after three centuries the old University tardily
recognizes something of its obligation to women
and gives them the right to equal or nearly
equal competition in the examinations That
they viii eagerly avail themselves of the
opening Girton sufficiently indicates. and that
they will profit permanently by the opportunity
to secure the Hall mark of university education
cannot be doubted.
