COMMUNICATIONS.
Woman Suffrage.

The number of women who are earu- |
ing their own living in this city is much |
larger than most persons realize. OF
course, | mean earning their own living
outside of the home by their efforts in
various trades and professions. Every
married woman who attends to her
household and her children earns her
own living within the home,
But of wage-earning women >toilers,
supporting themselves and often their
husbands and children there is large
and constantly increasing host. The
census of 1880 grossly understated their
number; it is to be hoped that the
census of 1890 will be more trustworthy.
AS have heretofore stated, Mr.. Chas.
F. Peck, the State Labor Commissioner,
made in 1886 an exhaustive investigation
into the condition of our working
women and his results are the most
reliable that we have. By Topographic
cal error in recent article | was made
to say that his figures are far behind"
those of the census. The word should
have been beyond" for in careful
computation he asserts that there are
lover 200, 900 women" employed in this
city in various trades and professions,
and this estimate, which is undoubtedly
the most accurate that has yet been
given, is very much higher than that of
the census.
Let us consider for a moment what
these figures mean Over 200, 900 women
are earning the money that supports
them. How does this compare with the
number of men who are self.supporting?
In the presidential election of 1883 not
quite 100000 men cast their ballots in
this city and it would probably be fair
to estimate that these figures are rather
under than over the figures representing
the number of men who are earning
money. We know that wealthy idlers
do sometimes vote as we'll as tramps.
Mr.. Peck's estimate was made in 1886;
there must have been a considerable in
crease in the number of working omen
since that time. We have, then, more
than 100000 women earners as against
less than 100000 men earners. A vast
army truly, but an army most unequally
equipped for the great battle of life. To
the one portion, and that the stronger,
is given the protection of the ballot,
political representation; to the other and
weaker contingent this protection is
denied. Is it any wonder that the aver
age earnings of the unprotected laborers
are far less than the average earnings of
the protected ones?
LILLE DEvEREUX BLAKE.
In justice to the census of 1885,
which in many respect is deficient-it
must be observed that the number of
New York women reported in that year
as engaged in all classes of money-earn-
ing occupations was $4,000. During
the six following years this number in
creased vastly, SO that the estimate
given by Commissioner Peck in 1886
was probably as approximately correct
as it could be without census, but did
not, by reason of its comparative mag
nitude, invalidate the smaller official
figures of 1880. 1t only shows the rapid
increase of the number or wage-earning
women and rather strengthens than
weakens Mrs. Blake's argument. ED.

AS a statesman of the yjutocratic
school Jim Blaine has no equal. His
Behring sea dispute with England has
three-fold object: Ito catch the Irish
vote; 2-to enrich the capitalists engaged
in iron works and ship building by the
construction of an unnecessary navy;
3-to divert the attention of the people
from real issues of domestic character
to imaginary and foreign ones. No
public man ever acted with more pro-
found conviction that the people are
utterly deprived of common sense.
The value of the worlds annual pro-
duction of iron and coal is nearly five
times that of the gold and silver OBJ
tanned in the same time.
1t is stated on good authority that the
railroad system of the United States can
be operated At an average cost of so per
cent. of its gross earnings. The gross
earnings for 1889, according to Roor's
Manual, were about 1000 million dol
lars; in 1890 they must have increased
to about 1850 millions and they will I'M
questionable surpass 1900 millions next
year, leaving a net profit to the stock.
holders of about 500 million dollars.
To this should be added the interest on
about 5000 million dollars of bonds
or say $50 million dollars year-beside
the 200 millions which Mr.. McNair says
are annually wasted by bad manage
ment We thus have a grand total of
$50 million dollars as the possible net
revenue OF the capital at present en-
gagged in railroads. revenue derived
from the private ownership of what is
actually ''post-roads" within the mean
ing of the National Constitution and
which of right belongs to the nation.

The contemplated wiping away of the
surplus revenue has strengthened rather
than weakened the public credit" The
bondholders know that 1.-The country is
safe" and Secretary Window must pay
1924 for every 800 bond originally
issued at $50 (gold value) and bear
ing interest at the rate of 4 per cent.

Thanks to the work of the School
Conference, the condition of educational
affairs in this city is the subject of wide
spread comment in this country and
abroad. Will the citizens of New York
take less interest in this local matter
than foreigners do? Or will they manifest
their indignation by voting for the can
didates of Labor this fall?

Chauncey M. Depew, worker among
workers, captain of workers., has
favored the New York Herald with an
interview, in which he describes his la
borious trip to Europe, and his laborious
gossip with captains of workers" on
the other side of the Atlantic. The
tongue of that Depew is decidedly his
busiest organ, although his stomach
does great work at public banquets.

A revolution in Buenos Ayres
Although the political government
alone is attacked, the actual rulers, the
capitalist class-many members of
which are among the Insurgents
brought about the state of affairs which
finally ended in ruin and street fighting
Another political government will be
set up, in every respect as servile to the
plutocracy as the previous one, and
capitatalism, more firmly established
than ever, will continue its work of
ruin throughout the Argentine Repub-
lie.
