ECHOES OF The PRESS.
THE COUNTRY AT LARGE.
Carlisle and the Women.
Register! |!

N. Y Tribune
Secretary Carlisle would do well 70 revise
his antiquated notion that women cannot earn
more than Sl2O0 year. Not being able TO in
wade his inner consciousness we shall prob
ably never know why he fixed on that par
ticular sum as the limit Of their wage earning
capacity. but in view of the large incomes
that hundreds of women throughout
the country derive from professional
work Din many cases exceeding the combined
salaries of himself and his SOM, and the thou
sands who earn by honorable toll far more
than cit her of the Carlsles has ever yet made
outside of Government employ, his views on
the subject would indicate mind singularly
impervious to facts. IL is not, however, as
wage learners that women will hereafter be
significant when men of Mr.. Car
isles type seek the endorsement of the people,
Recent events have demonstrated their
capacity for swift and effective organi zation
to defeat candidates and measures they do
not approve. In Mr.. Carlisle's own State
their exercise of this capacity has increased
the "complexity" of the present political stu
alton and produced much recasting Of ''politi-
cal horoscopes" while in Washington it las
secured for them participation in public af-
fairs which has proved distinctly helpful to
the cause of good Government.

of course, to be on COCHRAN.

MIR. Reed Generously Spares Them.
New York Press.

A careful observer, who has been in Wash
ington the past week, told me yesterday that
the magnanimity of the Hon. Thomas Brack-
EFT Reed, as shown by his refusal TO harry the
humbled and mortified Democrats in the
House, had greatly comforted them. One Of
the horrors of the ir return To Washington was
their fear of his clever sarcasm and biting
rldicule Timidly they greeted him, but he
has been only cordial, consoling and cheerful.
instead of making miserable the dying hours
of the majority, ire mas showed spirit of gen.
erous forbearance and real sympathy FOR the
ur seated and disappointed. This, however. is
"a characteristic trait OF Mr.. Reed. He doesn't
do small things. because he is a big man. He
will ridicule absurd pretentions ana puffed-up
cranks; but he won't crow over a fallen foe
lie Is busy all the time, and is using all of his
great influence with his fellsw Republicans to
keep them from assuming responsibilities
which don't belong to them. Every one as
sumes that Mr.. Reed will be the speaker of
the next House. and that his mastery hand
will direct the course of the majority toward
suggestions of remedial legislation.

way employees. Two dramatic illustra-
tions can be mentioned There is living
in New Jersey, not far from Philadel-
phia, a man who for many years was
the foremost passenger engineer between
New York and Philadelphia ON the
Pennsylvania railroad. He ran all the
specials and best trains, and in 10 years
never had an accident. One night in
the CLEAN of the headlight he saw a
woman. He had only time to see her
hands raised and to hear her cry, and
before he could put his hand upon the
lever he felt jerk under the wheels
and knew that all was over. Since that
night he has never been on an engine.
For months he did not sleep and later
became practically insane, but only on
the one point of seeing and hearing the
woman his engine killed. Now he goes
about harmlessly and aimlessly, but he
has to be kept away from railroads, and
in his fretful sleep he awakes with cries
and paroxysms of horror The other
case is that of a man who was conductor
of q train on the Camden and Amboy,
whose train had an accident. He came
out all right himself, but it preyed SC
upon his mind that one night he left his
home, and going to the point where the
accident occurred threw himself in
front of passing train, receiving in
juries from which he died. .-Philadel.
