Not in favor of woman's Rights.

Special to the Gazette.
LONDON, June 9.-The house of lords to-day
rejected the bill to enab bic women to serve as
members of county councils. While from the
known consensus of opinion among the lords on
this subject their action not Surprising, it
was still thought the presence OF Miss Golden
and Miss Cones in the London county council
caused by virtue of populsr election, and the
additional fact that no protest against their be-
ing seated was lodged within q year succeeding
their election, would exercise greater influence
over the obdurate peers. There is now 6 reso-
luton before the house of commons calling at
tention to the exclusion OF women from the
parliamentary franchise, and practically
motion to allow women. otherwise legally
qualified, TO exercise this privilege. Although
not as ancient nor as time-worn the ode
ceased wife's sister, BILL this motion creeps up
from time to time, and it is interesting to note
its increasing strength it returns to its plHce
on the parliamentary table. Since 1872 women
have voted for members ofthe town council and,
IN the years intervening the privilege of voting
for school boards, poor law guardians and other
local bodies has been added.
The parliamentary commi ttee also rejected to-
day the ''unearned increment clause in the
bill. providing for the widening and general inn
pTovement OF the Strand.

The petition declares the belief Of the siGners
that Nj. Parke has already been sufficiently
punished for his otfense, that the majesty of the

has been amply avenged for the imputation put
complished by the prolongation OF Parke's inn

Hon. GUsTAvE COOK affirms that he
prefers greatly to be judged by his intui-
tions than by his accomplishments. Mr..
Cook VIII hardly be able TO establish new
standards. "By their deeds ye shall
know them' is law of estimates that is
not easily abrogated. More than this,
political acumen that reaches the point
of mind reading is not given to the
masses, with whom what a man does
outweighs what he says, and who are
not supposed to know what man
thinks. Women only are said to know by
intuition, but as they have not the right
of sugrage, "'intuitious are not very
strong card to play in the game of politi-
cal preferment. Marc Antony, when he
swayed the multitude, told of Csesar's
deeds, not his "intuitions - and he let
the wounds made by the conspirators re-
flute the words by which they would as
suage the wrath of the people. Gao
complishme nts" count with the masses,
and to will to do better than is done
has little weight in convention halls or
at the ballot box.

munism. 1t is based on the seemingly
ridiculous assumption that the friends Of
the proposed railway commission amend
ment, who, the News writer says, "have
been for years graduating under the
teaching of widespread commuuistio
propaganda, - have been wrought up TO
sentimental evaporation against all
iorms of aggregated capital, and ell in
stances of great amassments of private
| capitsl.' In other words the advo-
nor leSs than communists bent on con-
hscating the property of the railroads,
and when that is done, they mean to lay
violent hands on the property of wealthy
citizens. and divide up the loot among
themselves as the barbarous tribes do in
Africa.
AT first this language may not strike
the average reader as beng very funny
or very humorous. He may be in
elined to regard it as the raving of
lunatio or the dyspeptic growl of hope
that the author waLed from a horrible
nightmare, and mechanically transfer
red the hallucinations and morbid fancies
of terrible dream to paper. And IN
sober truth, if it be admitted that the
writer aforesaid was in earnest, the YER
dict of the reader would be correct and
just. But as he was only indulging
bit of humor, and trying the wings of his
fancy as young bird does when it first
leaves the nest, the verdict must be set
aside as harsh and unjust.
AS it is his first successful attempt at
humor, we shall look for further efforts
in the same line during the campaign.
He has struck a fine lead for the exer-
else of faculty which he undoubtedly
possesses, and should spare no pains to
develop it to the full extent of its power.
He might 90 ahead and show how the
friends of a commission mean not only to
rob the railroads and the rich,
but to rob and despoil everyone
opposed to a commission. CHASTITY pic
lures might be drawn of wholesale plund
dering and midnight confiagrations, OF
burning homes and ruined and sacked
towns and villages. Tho feelings of the
sympathetic would be wonderfully
aroused by graphic descriptions of the
brutal and savage manner in which
the commission communists" dragged
the anti-com mission leaders from the |
bosoms of their families and hung them |
to the nearest lamp posts. Other heart
rending and diabolical features might be |
added to round out and intensity the
vividness of the picture.
Let n t the writer hesitate to do this, |
lest he be classed as an escaped luuatio.
Genius is Indifferent to the praise or
blame of the multitude. His sanity is
already suspected and will continue to
be so regarded, it is feared, in spite of
our efforts to correct the wrong impress
sion. Further extravaganza of the sort
indicated can do him no special harm.
Let him remember DrYden's couplet that
says:
Great wits to madness sure are near allied.
And thin partitions do their bounds divide.
