''there should be general statute for the
summary suppression of such newspapers
as The CALL" Doubtless, De Young would
like to be rid of such exposures as this paper
makes, but that does not trouble US, nor
does the assertion that we have but little in
fiuence. We can assure De Young, how
ever, that The CALL steadily gains infiu-
ence and circulation, which we take for
granted is an approval by the public of the
course THE CALL pursueS.

Ex@Gov, Taylor Is Mute.

NhhHNlllt ntIhius
The Name of Ex-Governor Robert l..
Taylor has been frequently mentioned
in connection with the senatorial con
test two years hence. Indeen the eX-
Governors closest friends have not
hesitated to declare that he is i'll the
race. The Herald sent its representa-
tive to him yesterday in Chatta-
nooga and asked him in regard there
to. His reply was that the election
was "too far off to discuss the matter
at present" Asked in regard to the
Alliance and the subtreasury, he de-
clared that it was his "custom to dis
cuss matters and express views oil pub
lie questions only when they are before
the public"
The interview was, il is needless to
say, rather unsatisfactory. Ithas been
the custom OF public men in Tonnes
see to lay bare their hearts and minds
TO the people from whom they are ask
ing favors The Ex-Governor is, how
ever, the best judge of the course he
should pursue. His political career
has been so much more successful
than his most ardent admirers ever
dreamed it would be, that there seems
to be very general willingness on the
part Of his political adherents to allow
him to paddle his own canoe.
Whenever, however, the distin-
guished Ex-Governor is ready to
give to the people formal notice of his
candidacy, and to utter his views upon
political questions which have arisen
or may arise, the Herald tenders its
space without money and without
price.

Women and the Professions.

THE Legislature of Wisconsinrecent-
~ passed law making women, who
are members of the bar of that State,
eligible to the Office of Court Commits
sioner, The other day Judge Johnson,
at Milwaukee, appointed Mrs. Kate
Pier to that office in his court, which is
the first made under the law. She is,
perhaps, the only woman Court Com
missioner in the United States. She is
considered an excellent lawyer and en-
joys a large and lucrative practice, and
has repeatedly acted as receiver for i'm
portant business enterprises. Her
husband, Col. G. r. Pier, is also law
yer of ability, and daughter who has
just finished her course in law school
is entering the profession with excel
lent prospects. Two other daughters
are studying law in the State Universe
ty. On the same day that Mrs. Piei
received her commission Judge Pills
bury, of Pontiac, ILL.,, appointed Miss
Stella NJ. Callen Master in Chancery
of Vermillion county, and the bar has
heartily endorsed the appointment
She is the first lady to hold the cofiiC
of Master in Chancery in the State

From childhood she had a passionate
love for history, particularly for that Of
her own country. Her private library is
extensive, and last autumn she had the
privilege of making special studies in
John Fishes library in Cambridge
Having lectured annually at Chautau-
qua, and at such schools as Ogontz and
Mrs. Sylvanus Reeds, Miss WEIGH de-
cided to give the New York public a
taste Of her quality, and at the sugges-
ton of her friend, Mrs. Grover Cleve-
land, she went to New York, engaged
the aristocratic Berkeley Lyceum thea
ter for a course of lectures on American
history, and succeeded in interesting
some of the foremost women in New
York society in her venture. Some of
her subjects in this course were "The
Making of the Constitution, "The War
of 1872" Alexander Hamilton" can.
drew Jackson and John Adams" and
"The Capture of a Commonwealth. 4"
She speaks entirely without notes, and
her memory for dates, facts and figures
seems phenomenal.
Miss WEIGH is very attractive person
ally; she has a refined and winning
manner, a spirited appearance and an
agreeable voice. Her delivery is easy
and fluent, and the literary style of her
discourse charming. She is always ready
to answer any questions after lecture,
and her replies are invariably swift and
complete. The New York lectures were
successful beyond her hopes, and when
the course was finished series of sup
Elementary lectures followed at the
houses of Mrs. Cleveland, Mrs. s. J. Col
gate, Miss Amy Townsend and other
ladies who banded themselves into an
association called the Half Hour club, as
its members are required to read one
half hour daily upon American history.
Among The ladies belonging to this club
are Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt, Mrs. Ros.
coe Conkling, Mrs. Pierrepont Edwards,
Mrs. Daniel S. Lamont, Mrs. William G.
Whitney, Mrs Gouverneur Morris and
Mrs. Richard Watson Glider.

About Teaching Reading.

Mr.. Ballet, superintendent of schools,
In an address before the board of trade
said; Reading has been taught in
Springfield for many years by what is
called the word method, but it seems
this fact had not been universally
known until recently. No primary
teacher of any standing in the country
would teach "a child the alphabet be-
fore he can read. No educator of any
standing in. America or Europe would
advocate it. The only question among
educators is whether it is more natural
for the child to learn words first or en-
tire sentences. On this there is a diff
ference of opinion at present, but the
sentence method seems to be growing
in favor. springfield (Mass. Home

THE Italians of Philadelphia are
taking the first step toward civilization.
Over 10000 of them are organizing
what they call the "Italio-American
League" which will form branches all
over the country. The primary object
of the League is to Amerieanize al Ital-
ians coming to the United States.
Their action is commendable and
shows that they are making timely
effort to promote the longevity OF their
race in this free country. Under our
valuable precepts and awful examples,
such as was given at New Orleans, all
the murderous proelivities inherited
and acquired may be eradicated from
the Italio-American.

James ID. Houston, who has been
described as the "first lieutenant" Of
the lynching mob at New Orleans, is
said to wear coat OF mail under his
everyday clothes. For ten years he
was political "boss" of Louisiana, and
held some of the most lucrative posi-
tons in the State. He came into
power in 1876 under the first Demo
cratic State administration. During
his period OF Office he was engaged in
some half dozen shooting affrays and
escaped from all of them without a
scratch. Those who witnessed sew.
