What Alxire Wants,

We are in receipt of an aesthetic lo\
ing brown pamphlet from the pen
Miss Alzire A. Chevallier. 1t is on II
subject of "Woman's Place In the Cred
Rcfo'm Movements of This Age" 1t
always pleasant to see a person who ha
the force of his convictions, and this All
zire certainly has. But she is somewhat
like the temperance ladies who once Pc
titioned the legislature for alaw prohib-
iting the sale of intoxicants. The ladies
toiled through slush and rain, through
summer heat and winter cold, visiting
all sorts of scary places, till they got
signatures to a petition many yards long
respectfully begging the legislature to
enact a law abolishing the liquor traffic.
The gallant house of representatives
heard the petition all through with an
air Of profound respect; then one of the
members rose and courteously informed
the women that there was already on the
statute book exactly such a law as they
asked for, and there had been for Is
years. The thing was to get it enforced.
So with Alzire's plan. She evidently
labors under the hallucination that all
Legislators have to do is to pass a law,
and Immediately the people will begin to
tumble owe one another and break their
necks trying to obey it. 1t won't do,
Alzire! Know this: No law can be en-
forced till public opinion has reached
that point where it would obey whether
there was any law to that effect or not.
You would have laws passed establish
ing free nurseries, free kindergartens,
free industrial schools, gymnasium
baths and Fairgrounds, not to speak
libraries and reading rooms. With
u heart, Alzire, but who is to paytt.4
them? Would you tax the people, whose
champion you are, still more heavily
than they are now taxed? We learn in
the latter part of the pamphlet that ma
tionalism or Christian socialism will be
the magician to wave its little wand and
work all these wonders. We doubt it.
Go to work Oh human nature, Alzire,
and make it better; then you will have
no need of laws.
One of the lady's suggestions is indeed
in the line of practical application. She
says that when a roue and libertine is so
treated by all good women that he will
feel himself a pitiable outcast in society,
then these villains will vanish. So they
will.

One thing is certain, 1894 will be a
better year than 1898 was. The reason
is that 1t cannot be worse.
