The author has still to consider, from the
ethical point OF view. the political position of
women as compared with tho politlca! position
OF mon. Until the later has been dealt with
tho former cannot be expounded. The truth
10, that Mr. spencsr's definition OF the po-
liticsl rights OF men differs materially
from that prevailing In England and the
United States. This definition will naturally
affect his view OF tho right OF women to
vote In general political elections. There is,
however. one aspect Of the matter which
may be examined nt once. Are the no.
ltical rights Of women the same az those
OF mem The assumption that they are the
same is now widely current Along with tho
identity OF rights arising from the human
nature common to the tw, sexes there 10 as
sumed to 60 an identity OF rights In respect to

Herbert Spencer ON wonan's Rishts.

They who recall the classification OF Mr..
HERRERT SPENcER's Synthetic Philosophy"
will remember that the crown Of the work was
to be tho afIiliation Of ethics to the doctrine OF
evolution. The process OF utilization began
with The Data OF Ethics" published in 1879.
but III health has until recently prevented the
author from continuing this section OF his task.
Even now. believing that his remaining ener-
Ries may not enable him to carry out his whole
design. Mr.. Spencer has passed over part ii.
and part Ill. OF the Principles Of Morality
tho "Inductions Of Ethics" and the Ethics OF
Individual Life"-and in tho volume before us
devotes himself to the Ahics Of Socia! Lite:
justice; tAppletons).
In the frst five chapters Of the present book
the author examines animal. sub-huInan and
human ethics. and traces the evolution OF tho
feeling and idea OF justice. In tho sixth and
seventh chapters he propounds and defends
tho formula Of justice which is as follows:
Every man IL FREQ to do that which he Wills.
provided no tnfringes not the equal freedom
OF auy other man." Thore Ia. OF course. moth
ing new in this formula and It is Mr.. Spencer's
applications OF 1t that will be read with in
forest His review OF tho corollaries OF the for
mula OF justice leads him to discuss tho rights
OF mon to the uses OF natural media: the
rights Of property in general, OF free contract
and Of free industry. the rights OF free belief
and Of FREQ speech and. finally. the limitations
OF the duties OF tho State. From this sum-
mary OF subjects It will at once DO manifest
that In this volume tho author sots forth his
ideas about socialism. land naturalization. and
womans rights His views OF the two former
subjects may DO more conveniently presented
at Ar other time. and for tho moment We con-
Ans ourselves to pointing out tho conclusions
arrived at by Mr.. Spencer in regard to the
rights OF women.
No attempt Is made In the book before us to
compare In detail the capacities OF men and
women. It su11ces for the au hor's present
that some women are physically stronger than
some men. and that some women have higher
mental sndowments than some msn-highsr,
indeed. than the great majority OF men. From
this fact 1t follows that even were 1t possible 10
adjust liberties 70 abilities. the adjustments
would have to DO made irrespective OF sex.
The difficulty OF discriminating between the
rights OF men and the rights OF women
reappsars under another form. II we
SGT out with the proposition that Just
as. disreRarding exceptions, tho average
physical powers OF women are loss than tho
average physical powers OF men. so. too. are
their average mental powers. We could net In
practice conform our plans TO this truth. 1t
would b impossible to ascertain the ratio be-
tween the two averages. and It would be impos-
sibls likewise to proportion the spheres OF &C.
avtty to them. M Spencer even goes on to

Petrsrch refuses to admit at first. though he
does subsequently. that his love for Laura can
be sin. He protests that he has lovei only
her soul. and recounts how she has Withdrawn
him from everything base and has tnught him
to look upward. st. Augustine. however con-

Aeronauts Not LabOrers.

CHICAGO, July Eugene Goddard
and Pilas Pines, the famous French
aeronauts, came near being detained as
common laborers imported under con-
tract. They came to this country under
contract to Chicago company to oper-
ate a captive balloon, similar to that
operated in Paris, and when they went
to the custom house yesterday for the
purpose of securing the entry of their
balloon free of duty, as among the tools
of their trade" Immigrant Inspector
Lester took them in tow, questioning
them as to their business After look
ing up the law and the definitions &C
cording to Webster, he came to the con-
clusion that aeronautics is an art, and
that aeronauts are professors, class
not subject to the provisions Of the con-
tract labor law. He will, however. re-
port the case to the authorities at Wash
ington The balloon was admitted on
the claim made.
