projects from ont of the casing, and on

WOMAN'S DRESS.
a Plea For Garments Which Permit Free
a, II

Il Plea For Garments Which Permit Free
dom of Movement.
There can be no doubt that as long as
women remain-the slaves of fashion
they are destined to occupy an inferior
place in the affairs of the world A
thoroughly healthy mind can live only
in a thoroughly healthy body. Women
who wear corsets suffer from contrac-
ton of the thorax and the thousand ills
it brings forth. The trailing skirt,
whose weight rests on the hips, inter
feres with the power of locomotion,
prevents wholesome physical exercise
and poisons the skin with the impuri-
ties it sweeps up on the streets.
Woman's evolution or elevation de-
ponds upon the adoption of dress
which permits the lungs to expand and
hberates the body from the thralldom
of inartistic drapery. 1t is one of the
pleasing signs of the times that the
leaders of the woman movement, how
ever much they may differ on matters
of less Importance, are unanimous and
enthusiastic in their advocacy of dress
reform.
Woman, like man, was made in the
image of God. We have no sympathy
with prudes who insist upon the perpet-
uation of the skirt because it hides the
form. The skirt is badge of woman's
inferiority, conferred on her at
a time when the sex enioyed
neither civil nor social rights. The
Oriental trousers-a dual skirts
a far more convenient and healthy gar
ment than the heavy drapery worn by
the women of America who look upon
their sisters in the east with pity and
compassion.
Every one who has given some
thought to the social conditions of the
country must admit that the women
will play an important part in its future
development. They have already be-
come a part of American business and
professional life and are even now con-
Quoting an aggressive and popular cam
paign for equal suffrage. In few
years they will accompany us to the
polls and assist us in selecting law
makers and making our laws
In view OF these facts, it becomes the
duty of men to urge upon their wives,
sisters and daughters the adoption of
dress which shall permit rational exer-
else without violating the artistic taste
Not until women are clothed in gar
ments emhlematic of freedom can they
hope to compete successfully with men;
nor will they be free from the small
preiudices and weaknesses which have
retarded their evolution and made
them the subject of illtempered ridi-
cule.
The Importance of clothes must not
be uHderestinated TO quote from

think them, they are SO unspeakably

THE ANTI-OPTION BILL.
Opposed by All the Grain Gamblers, 1t
VIII EInaIIX Recnnne n Lazy.

Opposed by All the Grain Gamblers, 1t
Will Finally Become Law.
Before this appears in print we trust
the anti-option-gamblin bill will have
become law. How any man, who be-
lieves in the reforms of the peoples
party, can in any way defend the great
est iniquity ever known, the gigantic
control of prices of produce by the bears
on the board of trade, is beyond our
finding out 1t is said that the present
bill would not crush out future deals in
wind produce" 1t woodland not
only is that the faith of every compe-
tent judge, but the faith is the cause of
the tremendous fight being made by
the boards of trade and the stock job
bling iniquities.
1t is also stated that Washburn, Pills
bury and others are working for the
bill because of private interest Adj
mitted to the fullest extent. Whenever
it becomes the private interest of men
to advance just cause, and they do so
advance it, is it the duty of patriots to
war upon justice? There is no excuse,
not the slightest shadow of an excuse,
for any conscientious person opposing
just bill because that justice So deserves
private interests In fact it is the pri-
vate interest of every producer in the
land to destroy option gambling, or
dealing in futures without ownership.
And we question if the masses to-day
would be rising in rebellion against
gigantic frauds il it were not for the
private interests of every person in
volved
The most stupendous efforts are be-
ing made to defeat the bill In its dis
cussion the most rancorous ignorance
is exhibited by its foes
4 Louisiana senator, on the 4th in
slant, in . whirlwind of rhetoric, de-
clared that all the commerce of the
world, the traffic of tradesmen, the pur.
chase of all necessaries of life-were
but the buying of property in hopes of
a rise so as to sell at a profit Such
outrageous ignorance was uttered to q
senate of supposed wise men, and was
unrebuked. The statement was vital
to the bill. The speech was potent
though failing to carry an amendment
which would have destroyed the bill.
The fact is, ne Legitimate merchant
buys to wait or expect rise. The uni
versal merchant buys in quantity to
make persectage on distribution, ex-
pecting and requiring u steady market,
And the statement of the Louisiana
senator was false even as to the illigit-
innate and piratical work of the wind
merchant!
1t is only the dupes-the lambs, the
fresh 3umpkins-who are buyers for d
rise, except at intermittent speculative
periods of short duration.
Not one bushel in a thousand is
bought for rise by the regulars on the
boards. The stuff, be it grain or cot
ton or pork, is sold for drop and the
purchases are to cover such sales
On that same day however, the enc
mics of the anti-option bill got d blacl.
eye. The amendment to destroy its
| force was defeated by plump major
ity.
We look upon the passage of the anti
option bill as one of tie giant strides
toward revolution in the commercial
world-to the crushing out of a mon
