INTERVIEW WITH MKs. LOGAN.

American journals are in the habit Of pub
fishing every kind OF interview with all sorts

is supposed to come within their special
province. But one instance, however. has

being interviewed on the political situation,
and that with as much seriousness as if she
were an important factor in shaping and con-
