Norway and the Midnight SUN.

The lecture by the Rev. J. J. Tiffany, of
New York, on NORWAY and the midnight
sun" attracted an audience that completely
filed North Sheffield hall last evening. Prof
Fisher introduced the lecturer, who spoke
rapidly and fiuently, giving graphic descrip-
tions of the country and its inhabitants and
the wonderful scenes of the rugged land
where the sun sets at II at night and rises
at 1 in the morning. The journey to Nor
way can be made in three weeks and it is
not expensive tour, $500 sufficing for an
extensive trip through the country. Travel.
ing is quite convenient and the labor of max
ing oneself understood to the natives is not
great to one who speaks the English and
German languages. The people were des-
cribed as hospitable and happy in their sim
pie modes of living. The fjords and noun
tain scenery were said to be remarkably
picturesque.
The lecture was amply illustrated by stere-
opticon views.

The Position of italian Women.
Rome Letter in Chicago Tribune.l
1t is quite curious to note how a young,
aspiring, professedly liberal nation like Italy
lags behind in the most important question
of female education end social position. The
rules for regulating the latter-ths absolute
seclusion and strict constraint of the young
girls and the unbounded freedom which they
attain soon they are married-are the
causes of much that impedes the progress of
this most intelligent people of the worlds
race. Conservative England is, in compare
son, the land of freedom and equality. 1 re-
member Prof. Bonamy Price, of Oxford, tell
ing me last winter when I met him at the
house of friend here that the very best and
most succinct answer to a question he put in
the course of one of his famous lectures on
political economy, he received from a young
lady. 1t proved, he said, that she had
thought, and had, moreover, given her pow
ers of ratiocination full play before answer
ing. Well, this was not overpoweringly
novel idea to me, but know well if the Pro
fessor had told his story to italian auditors it
would have been received either with smiles
of incredulity or with stares of blank amaze
ment. A clever Italian friend once said to
me: " Oh woman who reasons is horri-
BILE creature % But I thought to myself at
the time that he would scarcely appreciate
the blessing of an utterly unreasonable fe-
male in the capacity of wife, sister or daugh-
teri Luckily their practice is not always
quite SO bad as their profession. I observe
that lady has just been appointed Professor
of Latin and Greek at the College for the
Higher Education of Women at Rome, which
is named after the late distinguished Signora
Emilia Fua- Fusenato. This is the first ap-
pointment of the kind on record, and it is
quite certain that nothing but the undoubt-
ed capacity of the fair candidate would have
procured her admission. So that is step in
the right direction.

EDITOR CouRIER:-Respected Sir:
Our Catholic citizens are under the
impression, whether erroneous or
not, matters little, that the Universe
ty at Vermillion has for years been
conducted in the interests of two or
three denominations, religiously
and educationlly. Our Catholic
tax payers should be given repres-
entation in the board OF regents and
faculty, or else exempt from tax
alton for that special purpose. Is it
right, honest, or christian, to take
the monies of Catholic taxpayers,
without giving them a voice in its
expenditure? We should do to
others only as we would have others
do to US. In this matter of educa-
ton as impaired in territorial schools
there should be not only theoretical,
but practical fair play, for Protest
ants and Catholics Jews and Iuf-
dels, Democrats and Republicans.
As an old resident and well wisher
of Dakota and her institutions, we
ask only for equal justice for all
classes of our people.
Respectfully,
Union County courier. [volume] (Elk Point, Union County, D.T. [S.D.]) 187?-1913, 1885-05-20
