Why ShOuldn woman do the things that Iordlv

He makes her stand on tramway cars, aching
ing to a strap.
f EN- though she step upon his feet, or tumble

She's entered into politics; she practices
at law;
She's taken up the surgeon S work with lancet
and with saw;
Some play at foot ball, so we re told: and
there are also some
Who on their safety bicycles like Boreas do

Man makes her do thousand things that

II she ass imes his duties, pray, why not his
pleasures too?
She wears his collars, and her clothes are cut
quite as his are:
If she be mannish in her dress, why not have
hnr cigar:
And furthermore, man has encroached on
woman sphere of late,
He taken on dressmaking at a truly won

And some mems clubs for gossip beat the

When women all will smoke who live beyond

Iowa Senatorial Election.

The legislature of Iowa, which assem-
bled on Monday, started into its work IN
der circumstances that promise TO de-
velOp some sensations. The Iowa legisla-
ture meets once in two years, hence it de-
wolves upon the current session to elect a
successor to Senator Wilson, whose term
expires on March 3. 1895. Senator Wilson
is in bad health and his resignation may
be sent in any day hence il may occur
that an election TO fiji his unexpired term
and for the succeeding full term will be
held on the same day. There are several
candidates for the seat, the stronger
among them being Congressman Gear and
Mr. Perkins. whom Gov Larrabee would
have appointed to succeed Senator Ali
son had the senator gone into President
Harrison S cabinet.
The legislature is overwhelmingly re-
publican, so that the fight over the sena-
torship will be within that party, and on
personal lines. The democrats and indie
pendents may become a balance of power,
but they are mot in it" so TO speak, at
present. If the fight should be extended
beyond the caucus, the minority would
become of Importance, but not otherwise.
The probability Of a sensational turn in
the election lies in the fact that rumors
of bribery and bamboozling' are always
thick in the air Congressman Gear is
the corporation candidate" He is
backed by a strong lobby of railroad Off
ciaIs, who, according to report, have gone
to Des Moines with their pockets full of
free passes, good for a round trip to and
ten days stayat the California midwinter
fair. These favors are TO be distributed
to the legislators who will vote for their
candidate for senator. Besides the free
railroad tickets, there are rumors of fat
campaign fund" that is to be disbursed
for Gears advancement
The Perkins party, having received
tip about these things, proposes to make
it warm for anybody who tenders or ac-
cepts a free pass; besides which the Per
kins people will take advantage of what
ever there may be for them in the old pro
hibition quarrel by affiliating with the
prohi0itionists and indorsing their views.
The fight will be lively, whether it is
confined to the caucus or goes into the as
sembly. The outcome, however, will be
a republican senator

An Ohio pottery manufacturer recently
shut down mis- works because of the
tariff agitation" A few days ago he
made proposition to his men looking to
the reopening of the works. He said he
would permit the men to go to work if
they would allow him ITO retain 5O per
cent. of'their wages pending the settle
ment of the tariff question. If the tariff
affecting his manufactures is untouched
he agrees to pay the 80 per cent. re
tained.' A more unreasonable PROPOSE
tion could hardly have been made, unless
the manufacturer had proposed to retain
all of the mems wages. Under the Me
Kiuley bill this manufacturer is pro-
tected by duty Of 25 per cent. on plain
earthern ware, go per cent. on decorated
porcelain and 50 Ter cent. on white china.
The Wilson bill proposes to reduce these
duties 10 20 per cent, 45 per cent and 30
per cent. respectively Would these pro
posed reductions, even if they reduced the
manufacturer S profits in like proportions.

Progress of the South.

From the Philadelphia Times Indl.
The new south continues along the avenues
so heroically taken up twenty years ago. and
the list Of new Industrial enterprises for 1898
gives little evidence Of the monetary depres-
sion and stagnation in trade which affected
other sections of the country. 1t is amazing
In view OF the financial stringency, that the
south should have established 2.293 new en-
terprlses during the past year and enlarged
ana improved even larger number The re
cora showsa total of 1881 new enterprises in
two years OF industrial advancement OF the
most gratifying character. The south is taking
advantage OF opportunities. This is more ap-
parent IN the commercial centerS and coast
trading points, the returns from which are
the best evidence that the south is growing
and reaching out on lines contrary to ali
precedent The new year is especially rich in
promise.

The corouer's jury investigating the
Louisville bridge disaster, In which
twenty or more persons were killed, will
need exceptional wisdom to separate the
true from the false testimony presented.
The other day one witness, an employee of
the construction company, swore that
while engaged on the building Of the
bridge he had handled timber to be used
in its construction that was so rotten it
broke in the handling, Following this
witness came another, also an employee,
who swore that not a rotten or insecure
piece Of timber had been used in the work.
When the jury shall have decided who
told the truth, somebody ought to be pun
ished for perjury.

A young woman's shape was the sub

her assurance to the managers that her
form was "all right" for the part She
appeared on the stage in tights, when the
managers concluded her form was all
wrong, and discharged her. a suit fol-

clared that the young woman's form was

cancel the engagement. The plaintiffs
lawyer argued THAT shape was not in it :;
that if his clients form was double
barreled' the contract would hold good.

fifteen democrats in the Senate who are
opposed TO the income tax, as follows:
Messrs. Brice, Gallery, Camden, Faux

'The populist senator's and fusionists

Kyle, Martin, and PETER, are looked
upon as firm in their support of the meas

which to calculate the chances of the in

little list is interesting as showing how

firearms and cartridges. If such a tax
should be made to affect only wealthy

carry pistols, it might be a good thing.
But there should be no tax on the gun of

Secretary Hoke Smith, it appears. is
about to be the innocent cause of a lively

M. L. Canoe, pastor Of the Ridge avenue

hope that 'Hoke Smith and the other

"hurled from power" Many of his

Senator Voorhees, declares he could
never vote to increase the tax on beer
and tobacco, "the poor mans only lux

tax on cigarettes, not so much for revenue
purposes as for sanitary reasons. The
senator voted against the repeal Of the
income tax twenty years ago.
