A Mistaken Idea.

There is popular superstition to the
effect that pretty women are rarely
good for any thing save to serve as
ornamental human bric-a-brac for the
rest Of tho work-a-day world. That
the chief end of a beauty is to polish
her filbert nails, train her arched
brows. devise new schemes for be-
witcfing her fellow-creatures and wear
as many becoming costumes rs Provi-
dence or her husband sees fit to give
her. In many cases this is true. no
doubt. but so frequent and admirable
are the exceptions that the justice Of
the belief is completely Overthrown.

The Effect OF Her Presence on the Political

Rev. R Heber Newton. at All Souls
church. ended his series of sermons on
"Woman in the State" He consid-
cred the dangers and benefits which
might accompany the entrance of wo-
man into citizens ship. Instead of de-
grading her. he thought that occupation
with large concerns and noble aims
would educate her. The home would
not be endangered by her withdrawal
from it. for with woman as a citizen
some of the economic condition which
now make a mockery of the working
people would be remedied.
The danger of doubling the mass
of ignorant, unframed voters" con-
tinued the preacher. lis real enough
to lead us to make haste slowly toward
the inevitable goal. The extension of
the suffrage to full half Of our people
should be through successive steps. by
which the more thoughtful women
alone will. at first become citizens.
The entrance of woman into citizen
ship will charge the political atmos-
phere with feeling-again a real dam

NOT AN OLD HICKORY.

4 Democratic Organ Bepudloeos German
and Hts Creatures
Governor jackson. of Maryland. in
pardoning the seven Baltimore cleo
ton clerks and judges who were con-
victed of frauds upon the ballot-box
committed two years ago. took the
ground that the men had been suffi-
GENTLY punished. II the men were
guilty they could not have been pun
ished too much if they had been kept
at prison labor the remainder Of their
lives.
OF course. under the ring rule in
Baltimore election frauds are regarded
as simply venial offenses. Many
gentlemen endear themselves to the
bosses by their ability to commit these
peccadilloes. To Governor Jackson
and the manipulators of Baltimore
politics it must have seemed odd that
seven election clerks and judges should
be kept in prison for doing precisely
what hundreds of other gentlemen in
politics had done End were ready 10 do
ut short nOtice-viz.. defraud the
voters of the city. When the ben
eficiaries of these rascalities were
walking the streets of Baltimore or
planning Democratic campaigns in
high places it must have seemed droll
to some people to force vicarious
sacrifice upon seven poor devils who
happened to get caught.
But what had the political crimes Of
other men to do with this question?
The seven judges and clerks who were
caught perpetrating frauds merited
the full punishment Of the law. The
fact that one hundred ballot-box
suffers and registry-list forgers Of
Baltimore are not now in the peniten-
tiary is a disgrace to the city and the
Democratic party. These seven men
are no worse than their comrades

far better than the editor of the ring

REPUBLICAN CLUBS.

The Most Advantog00us Agencies Wh.Oa
the rartv Can Employ.
The rapid increase of Republican
clubs in all parts Of the country is .
fact of decided interest and import
ance. 1t implies organization of the
most desirable and effective kind.
Such clubs are composed mainly. as =
rule. of the young and aggressive
members Of the party-the element
that creates enthusiasm and gives to =
campaign its practical and conquer
ing vigor. The first election OF Lin
coin was largely due to organizations
of this description; and the same is
true of other notable Republican vic
tories. There are certain facilities Of
success in politics which can only be
reached by enlisting the sctive inter-
est of voters who are fond Of doing
things energetically and willing to
give close attention to details. The
orators are useful In their way. and
the newspapers render good service in
another way; but after all. the best re-
suits are brought about by the clubs
that make it point to appeal directly
to individual voters and to promote
party discipline and confidence One
such agency in every voting precinct
is the most advantageous thing that .
party can have, as experience has fully
demonstrated Nothing else can be
made to answer its purpose. and the
party that tries to dispense with it is
certain to suffer accordingly.
1t is particularly desirable that tho
Republican party should provide It.
self with as much aid of this kind as
possible in the great contest which is
soon to begin. There are unquestiOn-
ably enough Republican votes in the
country to elect the next President;
and the principal task of the CAM
paign is to concentrate them and get
them all cast at the election. That
the sort of work that the clubs do.
and it can not be thoroughly done
without them. Thousands of them
have already been organized under
the most suspicious conditions. but
the number is not yet hundredth
part of what it should be. The young
Republicans of every school district in
the Union ought to be urged and as
sisted to cooperate in the struggle
for honest and progressive govern
ment, by forming such associations.
No elaborate scheme of organization
is necessary. In fact the more sim
pie it is the better it will serve to ac-
complish the ends in view. The prin-
cipal thing is to bring the young
voters together in a distinct body and
inspire them with q proper degree OF
zeal and ambition. They will easily
find ways to give good account Of
themselves if once fairly started in
the right direction. Mr.. Blaine never
declared more significant truth than
when he said: +" The giants of myth
ology typified the strength of young
men. and the strength of the Repub-
lican party is in the young men OF
this country, of whom it possesses =
vast majority" But this source OF
power is useful only in such proper
ton as it may be organized for in
dustrious and persevering service;
and the methods Of the club are to DO
preferred above all others in that con-
nection.-St. Louis 6s-Democrok

gle Of shrubbery by the roadside. 1t had

but he was dazed, and deadly sickness
seized him with returning Consciousness.
The half-healed injury in his side, disturbed
by the fall, fetched sharp twinge, too, with
every breath he drew.
How swift . change had come upon his
happy humori In few moments he got
upon his feet in the road, but staggered
about with dizziness. What had happened
