We must speak with respect and in praise
osthe Women's Convention held in Chicago last
week. We guess that It was the most i'm.
portant Convention ever held by women in the
United States. Its purpose was not to promote
female suffrage or dress reform. and 1t had no
revolutionary programme with divided skirts.
The design OF the humorous clubs OF which It
was composed Is to enlarge the social inter-
course OF women. to foster the growth Of
knowledge and thought among them. to train
them to perform their duties as members Of
the body polite. and to furnish them with OPP
portunities OF mutual service in the business
OF life. We used to hear OF the screaming
sistsrhood" in former times. but this Conven-
tion was not held by that sisterhood. Tho
delegates sent to 1t from the 200 women's
clubs in the country were level headed. dis
Greet. well-disciplined. and Intelligent daugh-
tiers OF mankind. The questions brought up
In 1t were those that relate to the interests and
the welfare OF women. It's proceedings were
In conformity with the rules provided for pub
lie conventions. 1t was q credit to womankind.

German-American politician Of this city
has taken up tho cry that was recently raised
by some German-born voters In Kansas He
says that the natives OF Germany who have
become citizens OF this country ought to get
moro public offices than they have got: that
they should compel the political parties to
nominate candidates Of German birth. and
that German born voters should rally to the
support OF such candidates when nominated
By any party. He admits that he himself Is
anxious to be elected to Congress this year
through the favor OF our German American
fellow citizens.
We apprehend that he will ind It hard to get
any party to nominate him on the ground Of
his nativity. even II he were born in the pow
erful and enlightened country OF the Germanic
race. man may properly be proud Of his
birthplace. II he were born in the right place.
but he had better not ask our voters to give
him an office because Of his birth In that place.
We shall be pleased. however. to see him
nominate himself for any offlce he wants on q
birthplace platform. II he asks our German
American citizens to vote for him for the rea-
son that he was born in the country that gave
them birth. We warrant that these citizens will
give him lesson In Americanism that he will
not forget They will lot him know that when
they took out their papers OF citizenshi they
were no longer foreigners. but became Amer
leans. Americans In patriotism and in poll
tics. to remain Americans through life. ever
enjoying the glorious franchises Of American
citizenship Our German Americans are not
the kind Of people for demsgogues to play
with.
German-Am orleans have often been elected
and appointed to high Offices We have seen
them In the Cabinet. in both Houses Of Con-
gress. In the Legislatures OF all tho States, in
municipal bodies. In the foreign service OF
the Government. and In many other public
places. Our native and adopted citizens have
voted for them without caring where they
were born. caring only for their political abil-
ity and principles. We are always ready to
support any fit and proper candidate for office
regardless Of his birthplace. but can never
sustain man In asking people to vote for him
because he was born where they were.
