to be done for her good so much as for the
benefit of the other sex. Aside from the
mere question of representation, woman in
the United States is greatly privileged /;
she occupies an enviable position; she is
the social god she is better off than wom-
an in any other part of the world.
True, she is debarred some property
rights, but otherwise she is the
equal of man before the law, saving
as to the privilege of the ballot. Now, if
this is to be given to her, it should be be-
cause it will introduce into the political
system new element for its betterment.
1t is not, therefore, a question Of woman's
desire. Man is the ruler now, and il is for
him to say what he wants. If he judges,
as we hold he should, that government
will be strengthened, the morals of society
bettered, politics purified, the injustice of
misrepresentation abolished, by giving wo-
man the ballot, he should decree ii with
out any inquiry as to her desire. She can
not, indeed, be deemed fully competent
to judge now upon the subject. If it is not
hereinafter with the women of the
United States now, it is because their
thoughts have not been given seriously to
the subject. In England Il large proper
ton ofwomen enjoy the privilege ofthe bal
lot, but we have never been advised that it
came to them through any largely ex-
pressed desire of their own, but in response
to the demands of Il few more courageous
than the mass, and because Englishmen
recognized it as wise policy to invest wo-
men with certain political powers.

NOT A QUESTION OF LOCATION

In the press and other discussions now
opening as to the choosing of nominees fol-
Congressman by the Republican Congress.
sional Convention, it is thrown out here
and there that this or that or the Other
county claims the nominee this year and
will insist upon it. Thus, in the Third
District, some one has taken upon himself
to have it declared that Alameda claims
the right to name the nominee in 1884. As
a matter of fact, this may be true; but as a
matter of party policy, if true, it is bad
We say this, not to reflect upon the claim
of Alameda, or to advance the claim OF
any other county-but to give point to
the expression that this is not a
county matter at all The Con
gressional District is an independent
political division for certain purposes.
1t elects Congressman not to represent a
particular county of the district, but the
whole people of the district and of the

proper to set up the claim of a county
within district to be specially considered.
What the party must do is to select the
best and most available man, the one who
will represent the district and State to the
best purpose, and wholly irrespective OF
his present residence in any section of the
district The people of the whole district
are to be considered, and not the personal
pride of those of one county. II the claim
of one county is to be recognized now, and
another at the next election, etc, we will
not be choosing Congressman for their dis
trict availability, but according to county
selfishness. This county business is all
wrong and ought to be stamped out. We
should select the nominee because of his
fitness and acceptability. If we add as
another requisite that he must reside in 4
particular county we may be cutting our
selves out of the best choice we might
make. 1t should make no difference what
ever from what county the nominee halls
or whether he comes from the same county
term after term. In this matter there is
neither room nor excuse for county pride
1t should be district pride alone, if any
enters into it at all

A bright-eyed girl, who is a skillful
angler for hearts, thinks young man, to
be successful, should propose after a very
short acquaintance, take the girl by storm,
as 1t were, while she is pleased with a new
beau, and before she has time 10 tire OF
him; then follow the proposal up by Wig
orous courtship, lots Of flowers, drives, the
alters. etc, and, if She consents. insist upon
a short engagement by all means.
Another well-known blonde beauty, who
has created sad havoc, and has had much
experience iii this line, says the only sue
cessful way to propose is when least ex-
pected. Allow no time for consideration,
and then insist that the acceptance be

is the only way She will ever be captured
but she thinks few men are bold enough to
try that game.

hung up his hat, announced his intentions
of remaining until she accepted. and She

One sweet. dreamy-eyed girl, who is iust

FISHERY INDUSTRIES OF THE UNITED

Women Who Never Buy.

vent them. The moment an old-timer
comes up to the counter she is instantly
recognized by some one of the statesmen,
and the warning signal, a tap ON the coun-
ter, is passed along the line Then we have
some fun. The old-timer' will call for,
say, certain shade of yellow She is told
that it is not in stock oh, what a pity ?
she exclaims, that is just what l wanted.
If you had it would buy sixteen yards of
it. Then it is the next mans turn. He
comes up, accordingly, and tells the first
salesman that he is mistaken, that there is
still bolt of twenty yards of that identical
stuff in the store. He brings it forward and
lays it down. You would think the shop
per who never buys would be disconnected
at this turn of affairs. Not bit of it. She
says smiingly: Oh, that is Just what l
want Lay it aside for me, and | will see
my drcssmaker and find out Just how many
yards she needs, and tomorrow I'll come
back and buy it Then she departs with a
shipper, but she never comes back We
