AN ANSWER RECEIVED.

We have at last found a republican
editor who attempts an answer to our
interrogatory concerning foreign
price of agricultural implements and
other machinery exported from this
country and sold abroad in competition
with the products of the pauper labor
Of Europe. The one man that under
stands the process is the editor of the
Hoosier State. His answer is triple in
character. the parts being as follows:
1. He does not believe that our manu-
facturers sell cheaper abroad than at
home
?. Owing to the system Of reciprocity
with certain foreign countries our man
ufacturers can send their agricultural
implements and other machinery there
without having to pay the tariff that
manufacturers from other foreign coun-
tries would have to pay"
3. Granting that they do sell cheaper,
our only answer is that the industry,
which has grown to such an extent that
it is able to do this. no longer needs the
fostering hand Of a protective tariff and
the duty they produce should be reduced
or removed altogether"
It will be observed that the first and

WHERE DOES WOMAN's INFLUENCE
LIE.

Every once in a while woman's Curl
osity gets overpowering, and she de-
termines to investigate some of the evils
Of which she reads and which she is not
willing to take on trust In vain her
husband and her friends try to persuade
her that she will do no good, but will
only be Disguised and sickened by tie
result She will not heed, but starts out
by herself or in company with other
women on a stunning expedition. Her
horror is always pitiful. but fails to
arouse any sympathy IN the persons who
warned her against going, and who
knew that her weakness measured
against so powerful an evil could have
no reforming influence. Generally the
only result of the reformatory excur-
sions is to get the ladies who participate
into the newspapers in an unenviable
light.
Sometimes the w. c. T. L. or other
organization of women sends a commit
tee to investigate the wine rooms. and
other evils of city life and the reports
cause much excitement among the
worthy women Of the club. who feel that
the evil must be eradicated right here
and now. The committee generally ad-
mits its own powerlessness to make any
reform in the matter and having salts
fed its own curiosity and brought in
formation to the other women. ii asks
to be discharged from further action.
Strange it never occurs TO the women
so interested. most Of them being
mothers, too. that while they cannot
make laws nor influence the men inter-
ested in the evils. one remedy lies with
in their reach. The mother has it i'm her
power to so educate her daughters and
to keep SO careful a watch over them
that they be proof against the evil in
huence that must come from their asso-
Citations in school and society. Here and
here alone can women exert a powerful
influence-in their homes where their
boys and girls may be taught the con-
sequences Of evil and trained to choose
the right
The fact that parents do not exercise
as much influence over their children as
they should has been amply illustrated
in our city recently, where several cases
have occurred where the daughters Of
respectable parents have figured in dis
gushing scandals. Persons Obliged to
remain down town late at night are
amazed at the number Of very young
girls, not over fifteen or sixteen years of
age, who are seen on Washington and
other principal streets at nearly mid
night. Go to the cheap theaters and one
sees young girls there unattended In
crowds flirting and acting in a manner
that makes one shudder for their future.
These girls are not the poor working
girls about whom society women love

TO weave so many sentimental theories,
but the daughters of parents who stand
high in the social world and who little
dream that their daughters are in such
company. The girls who as yet move
in the best society and who carry on
clandestine correspondence and meet
men outlawed by their society friends
may be named by the score. and yet
mothers never seem TO question when
the daughter has business which takes
her down town every afternoon. The
girls who frequent the public library
with no other purpose in view than to
carry on flirtations are innumerable, yet
the library officials are powerless to stop
them.
y case in point was noted recently.
An afternoon party was given at the
Propylaeum for charity and followed by
an evening reception. In the crowd at
tending in the afternoon were about six
teen boys and girls about fifteen years
Of age. When O'Clock came the ladies
in charge gave orders to have the build
ing closed until 8 p. m, but the young
girls who were all from the best ranks
of society announced their intention of
not going home, but remaining until
o'clock, and showed their feeling in the
matter by kissing the ladies who tried
to prevail upon them to go home. The
building was closed and the crowd Of
boys and girls adjourned to n restaurant,
where they ate supper and then ran
around the streets acting like young
hoodlums until o'clock. The record
does not show that a single mother wor-
ried about her daughters whereabouts
or sent TO inquire why she was not at
home for supper This is only mild in
ciGent, but serves To- show the unlimited
confidence which mothers place in their
sons and daughters.
The influence of d wild girl over her
girl companions is far more harmful
than that of a wild young man, yet
parents do not seem to think it
their duty to inquire into the habits of
the girls who visit their daughters. Let
the mothers begin in the home circle
and make sure that their own children
at least are not going to be led into
downward paths before they try to in
fuence those grown old in sin to reform.
