The Editorial Association Discusses
Advertising Rates.
. BOSTON, June 26.-The sessions of the
National Editorial Association were con-
tinued to-day at the state house.
A paper entitled, "Down Below" was
read by G. H Baskette of Nashville, Tenn.
which had reference to the counting rooms.
He commended that the editorial and finau-
cial departments should be kept distinct,
and in all matters publications in news
papers should be founded upon truth and
Justice, apart from any consideration of
dollars and cents 1t should be more than
mere money making scheme.
Invitations were received to hold the next
annual meeting at Roanoke, Va, Jackson
vile, Fla, and Asheville, N. G.
Vice President E. W. Stephens of Mis-
souri, opened the discussion on the question
of advertising by a paper on newspaper
making for profit" He held that the
present lack of uniformity in advertising
rates is due to the lack of knowledge on the
part of the newspaper publishers of what
standard, and every publisher is a law to
himself.
ADVERTISING AGENCIES.
AS to the advertising agent, Mr.. Stephens
was of the opinion that the weekly papers
would be better off without him.
Chairman Parker, of the committee on
advertising, made report of the schedule
of uniform advertising rates running per
inch from rs cents per week to $40 per year,
and per column from $40 per week to 800
per year.
MIR. Bette of Arkansas, from the COM
mittee appointed for the purpose, reported
favorably upon the proposition for affilia-
ton with the American Newspaper Publish
ers' Association for associate membership,
having agreed upon the terms for all weekly
papers connected with the National Edito-
rial Association of S. yearly; for papers
published oftener, in towns of 10000 people,
$40. and in towns of 10, 900 and Is, 900 popu-
lation SIS. After a brief discussion the
report was accepted. Discussion of adver-
Using was continued until the recess.

Rights.
NoTRE DAME, md. June 26.-The radi-
cal declarations of Bishop Spalding of
Peoria, speaking to the faculty and stu
dents of Notre Dame university on the
position of women, has created a sensation
here among the Catholics. Last evening at
the commencement of st. Mary's academy
he went even further. After having com
plimented the work of the sisters of the
Congregation of the Holy Cross he said the
position of women has been the position that
southern planters gave their slaves 1t was
no better to-day than it was years ago.
They were treated kindly, as the slaves of
men he knew had been treated, but kept in
ignorance. In this country, however,
women had emancipated themselves. The
American women were more intelligent
than American men. He demanded the
highest education for women, and declared
that she must henceforth work side by side
with man for the prizes for which man
worked and won. These words seemed very
like statement of an advanced belief in
woman's rights. He was applauded again
and again,
