The game of ball between the
Morris and Benson zines, at Benson,
last Thursday, was very fine and
closely contested game and resulted in
victory for the latter club by score
of 8 to 7. The Morris boys Were
handsomely entertained by the peo-
pie of Benson, and enjoyed very
pleasant time. A return game is
talked of at Morris this week.

THE Crisis in Ohio" strongly urging
that in the revision of the State Con-
stitution. the word male" be stricken
out Mrs. Frost makes a number of
good points. among others the follow
ing:
Love of liberty is natural to woman.
God never asked her to surrender it.
God says. Come into harmony with
law. govern yourself. made you free
to choose" Woman. after centuries of
obedience to man and disobedience to
God. says: mo. man may govern. and
take the responsibility, and if the ma
ton is destroyed. let him answer for it!
He makes the laws. / have all the
rights I want, and enough to do with
out interfering with government" The
time has gone by when woman
can say this with impunity. Woman
must answer for the downfall of this
nation equally with man. If she does
not rise to her opportunities God gave
us the franchise in the beginning. and
man has said. ''She shall have it when
she wants it." Not to wantit, isrebel-
lion against Gods moral government.

WORDS FOR WOMEN.

HENRY GEORGE, in letter written
from England to the Standard. speaks
strong words for woman suffrage.
The world is growing wiser and pre-
sumably better. but it is not either wise
enough or good enough to pay wo-
man mans wages for doing mans
work. Democrat.
Mrs. JUDGE HUMP HREY, OF Kansas,
says: Every pure woman's ballot may
be an effective protest against wrong.
and if she fails to cast it, by 50 much
is she responsible if wrong rules in
stead Of right.
The Ludington Record says: Thou
sands of ladies in Detroit voted for
school inspector, and exerted a bene-
fetal effect on the bystanders at the
polls. None of the baleful things hap
pened that croakers have predicted"
The more radical friends of the cause
in Great Britain say there is no earthly
reason why married women should not
vote; and they even take the extreme
position that they will oppose the pas
sage Of any bill which does not include
married women.

Women In Journalism:

'.Another romantic thing in journal
ism." says James w. Clarke. in the
Boston Globe, is worth observing the
successful advent of the woman jour
nalist. My recollection does not 60 back
very far. but it goes back far enough to
remember the time when you could
count the women regularly engaged on
the Boston press on the fingers of one
hand, and the general sentiment seemed
to be in those days,' only sixteen years
ago. that the few women who were en-
gagged in editorial or reportorial work
were sadly out of place. The woman
journalist was then decided oddity of
journalism. To-day the decided oddly
in Journalism is the newspaper Office that
does not include anywhere from three
to half dozen women in its editorial
and reportorial force. And who in this
year of 1889 thinks of women as being
in any way out of place in the ranks OF
newspaper workers? l should not like
to say how many bright and able wo-
men writer's there are engaged ON the
Boston press to-day, but certainly there
are five times as many as there were
fifteen years ago, and this number is
steadily increasing. And why not?
English literature is full Of evidence
that much of the very finest thinking
and strongest writing has been done by
women. and for one l am prouder of my
profession on this ground than on any
other-that it has been the pioneer of
all professions in opening the door of
wider for women. The fact
is significant. as believe. of the next
great political change that Is coming.
What the press does to-day the people
will do tomorrow. How long will it
be possible for a country ruled by its
to deny to women the
at tho ballot-box which they
have already gained in the newspaper

said. 1.-The real seat of government"

The Paper Collar Trade.

The caprices of fashion order many
changes in mans apparel. but it is al
most safe to say that the return to pop
ularity of the once all-prevailing paper
collar is about as probable as the re-
turn by the nineteenth century youth
to the powdered wigs. cooked hats and
knickerbockers of their colonial pred
ecessors. And yet a decade and
half ago the paper collar, with its
muslin foundation and its glossy We
neer. was almost universally worn. It
is now stated. as q reminder Of the
one-time popularity Of this collar. that
between the years 1860 and 1870 over
1000, 900 of the collars were sold daily.
The extent of yearly sales of these col
lars nowadays amount to about $780,
OO0 1t is scarcely necessary to add
that the paper collar still reigns SUI
preme in the backwoods, and that the
circulation of this article of apparel is
merely confined to the country places.
It Is difficult to persuade oneself that
this collar was once the dear particu-
lar ''fad'' of the young and old men of
fashion throughout the country. It
was first introduced to the favorable
notice of the public by well-known
New Yorker, q young man about town
who had the courage Of his convic-
tions and his taste. The dudes Of
that day were as quick then as they
are now to ''catch on" to a good thing,
and the paper collar entered upon its
long career of popularity. = N. 7.
