Much has been said and written of the warmth
of the Southern heart and of its constant willing
ness to respond to the cry of the needy and suffer-
ing. Another illustration of the truth of this as
sertion was witnessed in the manner in which the
general public responded to the call for aid in sup
porting the Orphans Home at Little Rock, their
generous patronage of the entertainment nagu-
rated by the management of that institution, be-
ing surprise to all. The lawn prrty was given on
the State-house lawn, the grounds being crowded
during the entire evening,

The suffrage bill was lost in Michigan; passed
by the house but defeated in the senate Dissat-

by for another hearing A delegation of ladies

"ayes' rolled in. Button-hoe bouquets were sent
In to the senators friendly to the bill, and floral
design representing the word "Yes'' was sent to
the senator who made telling speech. One SEN

according to her own say, "to get rid of him."

would bestow the right even grudgingly possesses
more logic than many of the others who wait to be
convinced.

a club paper.
The club paper, ''Lend Hand Echoes is is
sued monthly, and is very handsome in appear
ance. The subscription price is fifty cents a year.
1t gives evidence of good work in their club, and
if the labor of the various tens is as excellent as
the one having in charge the paper, Davenport is
indeed blessed with its band of noble young
women.
"WHEN women WANT the franchise they will get
it, This is the last argument of the tottering
opposition. Ridicule and satire, once the strong
est weapons, have worn themselves out. The
scores of other arguments against it, illumined by
the light of reason, have faded to mere appar-
ton, and nothing left but the one cold hard fact
-"the women don't want it," What women don't
want it? The working woman who Is ground
down to a pittance for her labor. True she
doesn't want IT. she has no time to want anything.
She doesn't have fresh air to breathe, nor nourish
ing food to eat-why should she crave to vote?
DO they distribute bread at the polls? Why then
shall she take time for naught?
Then the prosperous woman, what of her? The
woman to whom the changing of the seasons means
new bonnets and other personal diversions. The
discretion and makes five cents do the work CT ten

economy thereat
This woman--does she want the franchise? Will
it benefit her? What benefit does she need2
None!
True it is--one-half the world knows not how
the other half lives, and it does not want to know.
The arguments in favor of the franchise have
grown to the reader nearly as worn out as the
ones against it, 1t has become self-evident
truth. But the great class of prosperous women
has not read them. They have ears, but they will
not hear; eyes, but they will not see They are
told it means "equal pay for equal work." but
these words mean nothing. Ask them if ''taxa-
ton without representation" is right. A very
difficult problem this is the feminine mind quails
before il.
Finally, is it right for you, my sister, who have
a suhiciency Of this worlds goods and the bless

EVER A SONG SOMEWHERE
BY JAMES wHITCoMB RILEY.

There is ever song somewhere, my dear;
There is ever a something sings away;
There's the song of the lark when the sky is clear
And the song of the thrush when the sky is gray.
The Sunshine showers across the grain,
And the bluebird thrills in the orchard tree;
And in and out, when the ewes drip rain,
The swallows are twttering carelessly.
There is ever song somewhere, my dear.
In the midnight black, or the midday blue;
The Robin pipes when the sun is here,
And the cricket chirrups the whole night through.
The buds may blow. and the fruits may grow,
And the autumn leaves drop crisp and sere;
But whether the sun, or the rain, or the snow,
There's ever a song somewhere, my dear.

AMONG the Distinguishing features that charac-
terize the Father of our Country was very red
nose. History has never furnished so much as an
insinuaton that the touch of Bacchus, the wine
god, had ever been employed to promote its rosi-
ness. The winds of Virginia and the varied vics-
STUDIES of the weather were ascribed as the agents
when it was writ in the annals that George Wash
ington had very red nose.
And Observation-Disclosures the WoMANs CnRoN-
ICLE, that the face of our ustrous ancestor would
have been suffused with color eclipsing even the
hue Of his nasal organ, could he have been present
at his centennial celebration as participated in by
the children of the country he sought to honor.
Where are the sponsors of the child he left in
whose keeping, that sacred anniversary should
have become a baschanalan festival to stain with
dishonor instead of memorabilia by the purity of
its proceedings?
No woman's club in the West has reached such
stage of prosperity and perfection in its work
ings as the 'Lend Hand Club" of Davenport,
Iowa.
"Bear We one another's burdens" is their APP
propriate working motto. The club is divided into
working tens, and every department of woman's
work comes under their notice. The object is to
increase fellowship among women, with view to
the improvement of domestic, social, and indus
trial relations; to encourage an interest in every
kind of women's work, and to stimulate spirit of
mutual helpfulness among all women workers.
The method is personal instruction, evening
classes, courses of lectures, informal talks on the
relations and duties of life, reading-room and Ii
brary, registration Of employments, agency of

The recent developments of brutality of the
officials of Cook County (Illinois) Insane Asylum
is another evidence of the existing offensive con-
dtion of politics. Men who by their fighting abil-
ities at the polls in fraudulenty carrying elections
to put dishonest men in office, have been rewarded
by being given positions at the county expense at
the insane asylum, where they could have an OPP
portunity TO keep their native brutality in prac-
tice, by such inhuman treatment of the poor, help
less, unfortunate inmates as battles description
Hanging is by far too good punishment for
them.
The Arkansas Christian thinks that "House-
keeping is no longer fashionable" and adds that
''women are ceasing to be mothers, sisters and
sweethearts." Thisis mistake, as the editor of
the Christian could readily discover by paying a
visit to the numerous public schools throughout
the country and cities That gentleman could also
find many evidences of mother love in the patched

FROM CHINA TO ENGLAND.
An Important Contract Made by the
British OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Through
Canada.

An Important Contract Made by the
British GoYernment-Mails Through
Canada.
MONTREAL, August pa London
cable gives the particulars of the
British mail contract with the Cana
dian Pacific road, which has passed
the Imperial House of Commons.
The contract provides that the SER
vice between Halifax in winter and
Quebec in summer shall be one con-
tinuous and complete service at in
tervals of four weeks, the vessels to
call at Yokohama and Shanghai, and
the period of transit between Halifax
and Hongkong to be 1872 hours, and
between Quebec and Hongkong 684
hours. The run between Quebec
and Hongkong will thus occupy
twenty-eight and a half days, and
between Liverpool and Hongkong
about thirty-six days. Penalties are
provided in case Of failure. The
contract runs for ten years. The i'm
perial subsidy is 100000 a year and
the Dominion 100000.
TO BE USED IN CASE OF WAR.
Admiralty clauses provide that the
company shall construct all vessels
engaged for the service with gun
platforms and other fittings required
by the Admiralty, and to sell them to
the Admiralty if required. The YES
sells must run seventeen and a half
knots on a measured mile, and six
teen knots on sea-trial. The Admir-
atty may hire the vessels at twenty
shillings per ton per month, the
Admiralty providing and paying the
crew. The purchase price will be
the value on the day of purchase,
with 10 per cent. for compulsory
sale, and a further sum representing
the cost of delivery at a North Pacific
station. The company undertakes to
employ, as far as possible, members
Of the Royal Naval Reserve.
AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND.
A Treasury minute says the Cana
dian Pacific Railway will present an
alternative route for the Australia
and New Zealand mails. At present
these mails go by way of America
and travel through New York and
San Francisco, and a specially high
rate is paid in the United States for
the land transit.
The Treasury minute concerning
the scheme also says the Govern
ment considered the scheme offering
direct communication entirely
through British territory and an
alternative route to the East desir-
able in the interests of the Empire,
apart from postal considerations.
The scheme is not justifable upon
postal reasons alone, but offers
alternative service which saves sew
eral days as compared with the Suez
route, and therefore is of value from
a postal point of view. The land
transit, wholly within British terri
tory, as military route, is of the
highest Importance, and the offer of
the company to construct mail
steamers which could be employed
by the Admiralty as armed cruisers
is advantageous to the Government.

of course, in English tradition. 1t
was adopted by our National Gov
eminent partly because, though
there was no distinct class Of citi-
zens to be represented in the upper
house, there were the States, jealous
Of equal rights, whose governments
the upper house might represent,
while the lower house represented
the people. In the formation OF
State governments no such reason
for double chamber has existed,
and it's universal adoption has been
principally a matter of imitation,
though partly from conservative
desire to prevent ill-considered legis-
lation. Washington's belief that
there was greater security if the
country's legislative tea were served
in cups with saucers than merely in
cups, is so we'll known as to recur at
once to every one. Yet this was but
a part of Washington's character
istic distrust of the popular will
the same distrust which made him
wish that the electors and not the
people should choose the President
The danger of a double chamber is
that the popular will may be fol-
years defeated, without the posi-
bility of fixing the responsibility, as
in the case of the railroad land
Y grants and the Interstate commerce
laws; each house can persistently
pass it's own bill and refuse to pass
that of the other, and thus year after
year go by with nothing done. AS
time has gone on, the d-time belief
in the wisdom of legislatures and
the old time distrust of the popular
will have both grown less. In Eng
land there is already practically but
a single chamber; in France the Re
publican leaders generally favor
one. It would not be surprising
therefore, to see the experiment
tried in America"
Our little kingdom of Hawaii has
but one legislative assembly, the
mobiles corresponding with senators
sitting together in equal numbers il
the same hall, debating and voting
together as one body. According tc
the reasoning of the above writer
Hawaii must be placed in advance o.
most other nations in this respect
and the experience here thus far has
been entirely in favor of single
Legislative assembly, chiefly on &C
count of the greater expedition
which attends its business. Jeffer
sons theory was undoubtedly the
true one for small country or {
State of any Federal Union, but fol
large country like that of the
United States or France, it is quite
probable that two chambers form ;
stronger and more secure form O.

SINGLE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLIES

An American exchange says that
'the most striking innovation pro-
posed in any Of the new constitu-
tional assemblies in the West is that
of a single legislative chamber in
North Dakota. If adopted, as seems
quite likely, it will but form another
in the long list of instances in which
succeeding generations have ac-
cepted Jeferson's formulation Of
the political creed of democracy.
