Women and the Newspapers.

An eastern lady visiting tho elegant
home of the proprietor OF an influential
newspaper says to her husband;
why don't you own newspaper
dear? Just fancy! To have news
paper to go for people in and a home
like ths!" After pause-"And 1
think I'd rather have the newspaper
than the home"
That seems to be all women think a
newspaper is for anyway, to pitch INTO
people and print fashion and social
news. | wonder how many of them
ever read the telcgraphic news or the
local news. Sometimes. when 1t Is a
big murder or big scandal, they de-
your it greedily, but if women were the
arbiters il would be very cXtraordin-
ary paper they would demand. l have
known women who read editorials
sometimes, but they were generally
cranks in some direction. l think
there are exceptional cases who read
the police reports; but it is astonishing
how long n woman can look at . news
paper and not know anything that Is IN
It after she gets through. A thing has
to have connected story in it before
she can grasp it. A bare fact slips her.
an incident may catch her, but good
strong story in a kind of complete form
she remembers every detail OF, and
when she is told how the woman IS
dressed the whole thing lives before
her. and she never forgets it.-Sd''

Il The State Department. is collecting
Information as to the methods en-
.ployed BY the Norman propagandists
in securing adherents abroad to their
pernicious creed. Already some very
startling figures and statements have
been secured, which show on what q
wholesale plan the Mormon recruiting
agents are working in Europe, and
especially in Switzerland, buying young
girls, educating them, misleading them
and shipping them to Utah for: their
own nefarious purposes. It may be
that the completion Of the work now
being doneby the State Department.,
by opening the eyes Of European
eountEies to the spread of the Nor
mon propaganda among them, will
lead to some e.Inited action to check
it's That such action viii ultimately
be called for seems not at all improba-

crush out the Mormon system SO long

from foreign sources. Z.

Decadence of Sporting Men.

It is lamentable to look upon q
great champion Of any kind when he
begins to lose caste. Before, he is
courted, fawned upon and followed by
everybody, and his words are opin-
ions sent ticking over the wires of the
country to every newspaper in the
land. When his prestige is gone, mark
the change. No longer do the people
care for either what he thinks orsays,
and his whilom friends become either
strangers or worse, and those who
were loudest in his praise are the first
to throw mud at him. Take, for ex-
ample, the great wrestler, William
Muldoon. Not that l mean to say
that Muldoon is on the down grade,
but merely quote him as an illustra-
ton OF the general principle. 1t was
not SO much to his ;discredit that he
failed to throw the Japanese and
Evan Lewis at Minneapolis; but the
very. failure: Itself, while there was not
even fighting chance for either OF
them to get the better of him, reacted
badly, and, LEAR, lost him not a few
friends. It was the same with Ned
Hanlan, the oarsman, and it will he
the same with the boss OF them ali;

The success Of the secession party

The success OF the secession party in
the recent Nova Scotia elections is
q serious matter for that Province
and for the Dominion and home gov
ernments. The Dominion Govern
gment received formal warning q year
ago Of what to expect unless the de-
mands Of the Province were heed ed
for the readiustment Of the tariff, the
q tightening OF the burden of taxation,
which under the union has become
excessive, and q general reform OF the
financial relations between Dominion
and Province. But the domi nant
party 1t OTTAWA appears to; know OF
no. remedy for discomfort but a sub
sidy: Seemingly it is now too late,
and Nova Scotia will probably execute
its thirst to appeal to the imperial
authorities for leave to withdraw
from the confederation, with what
results nobody can foretell.

The late Legislature of New York
appropriated 5000, 900 for the enlarge.
ment Of certain locks in the Erie Ca,

can pass through them at time.
Governor Hill has approved !. the bill
making this appropriation, and it is
now a law. The work will be com

quicken and cheaper grain transpor-

alton is also an earnest that New
York will commence 8 thorough en-

portation helps the West by adding
to the value Of Western products in
the hands Of the farmers, manufac5-

Gov. Hauser, who was in Washing
ton on the sd inst, in an interview
on Montana's chances for statehood,
expressed himself as follows:
"The one thing that is now attract
ing the most interest in Montana is the
prospects for our admission into the
Union as state. Although no for
NAL application has yet been made,
the question will be brought up very
soon. As We have now 1 26, 900 inhabi-
tants there can be no difficulty on the
score Of population. The difficulties
now being experienced by Dakota
have attracted the attention Of the
citizens Of our territory. As the
republicans have the majority there,
and as that is probably one reason why
it cannot gain admission, project has
been formed to take advantage Of that
and gain admission for our territory.
Dakota, south, is republican, which
fact is given as the reason for its failure
to gain admittance. Montana is de-
mocratic and would neutralize the
effect Of the other state. We think
that by proposing as compromise the
states be admitted together, there will
be no difficulty experienced. Montana
is growing rapidly, and within a year
will have 10000 inhabitants.
