Large lies and small lies. Lies private

Victorious Women.

The Chicago Evening Law School
has had lively fight over the question
of admitting women as students. The
school is Incorporated under the State
law, and was opened short time ago
in the appellate court room. with
Judges Moran and Bailey of the appel
late court as faculty and seventy young
men as students Miss Emma Baumann
and Miss Baker applied for admission.
Both are stenographers, and wished to
perfect themselves in legal technical
tiles to enable them to do court report
ing. Strong opposition was made to
their admission. Mrs. Myra Bradwell,
of the Legal News, and other ladies
took up the cause Of the young lady ap-
plicants. The sentiment of the students
is said to have been against their adj
mission. but Judge Moran sensibly
said: LET the ladies be given equal
privileges. If young gentlemen are
mentally superior, let them demon
strate it by proficiency in their studies"
The directors were divided, but after
some discussion. and a postponement
or two. they voted that women shall be
admitted. This scores one more vic
tory for justice and common-sense.

A Brave Southern Governor.

In pardoning two negroes convicted
of murder for participation in the
lynching of a white man, Governor
Richardson, of South Carolina, has
shown himself to be brave and just
Executive. Many negroes have been
lynched in that State for crimes
against white women, but no white
man, before this instance, has been
subjected to the same fate for sim
liar crime against colored women. And
no white man has been hanged Tor
helping to lynch negroes. though the
cases have been numerous. Governor
Richardson does not think it just to
hang the first negroes ever convicted
of initiating the example of white
MODS. This is right Nothing is more
fundamentally democratic than equal
Justice for equal citizens. There
should not be one rule of morals or one
law for white ruffians and another

Mental Capacity.

Referring to the argument for the
mental inferiority Of women that has
been drawn from brain-weights r. c.
Macdonald in Education says:
''The average weight of the male
brain is 1,4S5 grammes; Of the female
brain. 1920 grammes This difference
begins at birth, when the male brain
averages from 435 to 472 grammes,
the female from 800 to 405 grammes.
These figures are the stock in trade OF
the fossils; as if intellectually could
be measured by size or weight. But
even this stronghold OF figures. when
subjected to the cannonade of criticism,
becomes untenable. Since the female
frame is smaller than the male, we
must expect to find a proportionally
smaller brain-as We do; but we also
find that the female brain, relatively
to the body weight, is actually larger
than the male. the average female
brain being one-fortieth of her body
weight. and the average male brain
being but one-forty-first of his body
weight. If weight of brain is
to be introduced as factor
of intellectually, it must be in
this relative way; otherwise the
fossils will. by the memorable logic OF
their own figures. be compelled to be-
lieve that their mothers. sisters and
wives are mentally inferior to the de-
based savages of Africa; for the abso-
lutte brain weight of the former is less
than that of the latter"
