Mrs. HELEN M. GARDNER criticised men
| pretty sharply In her recent address be-
| fore the Woman's Press Club. and we do
| not find fault with her. Men are open
| to the criticism OF women. and 1t 10
| good for them to get the censure. 1t serves
| to take the self-conceit out OF them and to
| mako them even moro anxious to mend
their shortcomings. and thus to obtain the
chief desire Of their hearts. which Is femi-
nine favor and consideration.
However. her specific criticism Of men,
that they have resisted the educational and
political advancement OF women. Is not
fair. The colleges and schools for the high
or education OF women have been almost
uniformly established by the muniflcencs
OF men. often. IL not usually. without any
outspoken demand for their advantages
from even the great body OF intelligent
women. The legal position OF women has
been improved and elevated by laws
passed by Legislatures composed wholly Of
men. though there was no considerable
feminine call for the amelioration. Men
have given women these rights freely Of
their own motion. rather than yielded them
under feminine pressure. Husbands and
fathers have thus sought to give legal pro-
lection TO their wives and daughters.
though these themselves did not understand
the necessity for 1t. Men have opened the
way for the entrance Of women into the
many new employments In which they
now engage. instead Of discOurAging them
from such pursuits.
Moreover. men are far more willing to
extend to women full political equality
than women are 10 receive and assume Its
duties. Woman suffrage has been retarded
by women rather than by men. AS recent
correspondence in The Sun and feminine
discussion Of the subject prove very
stnkingly. the strongest opposition
TO such extension of political obligation
comes from women themselves. They can
have the suffrage whenever they manifest
a general desire for it. IL they are ex-
eluded from the management OF the State.
il is not because men refuse TO admit them
as equal partners in the public business.
but because they have persisted in begging
that they be saved the burden.
Even under these circumstances the legis-
lation OF men has given partial suffrage
To women in some OF the older States. by
permitting them To vote in municipal cleo
lions and for school officers. for instance:
but usually women have not improved
the opportunity. We grant that such
limited suffrage Is illogical. and for that
reason the few radical woman suffra-
gists scorn it Justly. II women are
ht to vote for school oficers or in
States provide. they are ht 70 vote at
all elections. No discrimination is Tea-
sORAble. Political business Is one and the

We fancy that tho store OF wANAMAKEn
postage stamps. bearing those Colum ban de-
signs, must be nearly exhausted By this time.
The old-time reds and blues are again served
at the New York Post once. We have noticed
with interest the suggestion OF w. J. L" In
THE Sun that the American fag In miniature
shall be used as a device for the stamps. We
are not entirely sure that he Is right
The two-cent stamp now In use bears an
imprint OF the features OF GEoRoE WASH
IsoToN, and the oae-cent stamp an i'm
print Of those Of BENJAMIN franklin. The
WARRINGTON device must stand forever. and
many people would regret the disappearancs
OF the FRANKLIN device. Perhaps. however.
the latter might be transferred to q stamp Of
higher denomination. so that the American dag
might appear upon the one-cent blue stamp.
OF which many millions are used every year.
This IL the most feasible suggestion that
comes to US for the carrying out ofths thought
OF our patriotic correspondent who IL DESTROYS
that the Stars and Stripes uafurled upon q
postage stamp shall be seen all over the earth.

The Responsibility for tho Income Tax

Tho Responsibility for tho Income Tax.
One Of the striking features OF Senator
HILLS great speech was the distinct
ness with which he fixed the responsibility
for the disgraceful attempt TO substitute
direct for indirect taxation. to insert an In
come tan In q bill pretending to aim at
ltarin reform. and thereby to inject the
poison OF socialism into Federal legislation.
Thanks to the Senator. we now know exactly
VINO are. and who are not. chargeable with
ths effort to split the Democracy with the
wedge OF sectionalism and class hatred.
tits certain that the Democratic masses.
when defining the principles Of their party
through their authorized spokesman In their
last national convention. never uttered .
word which could be construed as permits
siye o; an income tax. Had It's platform
seemed to sanction such q measure, even
by hint or implication. the Democracy
could not have carried single State and
probably not ono Congress district east OF
the Mississippi River and north OF MASON
and DnoE's line. We may assert with
equal confidence that not one Representa-
ave or Senator from any Of the States in
cluded In the section named. who shall have
voted for an income tar. will ever be re-
turned TO Congress.
Who first proposed that the Democratic
party should turn Its back upon the course
which II has followed for century, and not
only resort 10 direct taxation. but revive
for that purpose the most odious Of the ex-
pedients employed by the Republicans dur
ing the civil war There Is no doubt that
the responsibility Tor the proposal primarI-
ly rests on President CLEVELAND. who in
bis message Of Dec l. 1898. announced that
the forthcoming Taaff bill would embrace
- small tax upon incomes derived from
certain corporate Investments" and ex-
pressed great desire for the success OF
this measure" It was. as Senator HILL
has pointed out. this drst suggestion OF q
limited income tai thas injected the poison
which has since spreai until It has deVsl-
Oped into q general Income tau. Subss-
quently. In his annual report. Mr. CLEVE-
LANDS Secretary OF the Treasury also rec
commended . limited tar upon incomes de-
rived from corporate Investments. on the
ground that "ths assessments or returns
need not be based upon information extort-
ed by the law from the persons charged with
their payment. but upon the public records
and the regular and sutheEtie accounts Of
the eOrpOTstiOns and companies In which
the inVsstments have been made" SeeTs-

The religious revival Is very lively.
Thousands OF mourning sinners attend the
daily meetings In it's interest Sunday was
great day for IL. and q multitude OF converts
were gathered from the crowds assembled In
the ThAliA Theatre. the Standard Theatre.
the Academy OF Music. Niblos Garden. the
Masonic Temple. and the several revlyslist
churches. Sermons have been preached in
the four languages which predominant in New
York. tho English. the German. the Italian.
and the Yidisoh. Even the Jewish population
OF the east side have begun TO take an inter
est In the revival. as was made evident on
Sunday at the Thalia 1.-THE old Bowsry TheatreL
where they heard sermon In the YidIseh
speech. Not perhaps since the days Of PAUL
the Apostle have SO many OF the people OF his
race listened to preaching in favor OF Chris
tianity. PAUL was the apostle TO the Gentiles.
but ne labored also among tho Jews. as We
learn from one OF his epistles. The Thalia
preacher to the Bowsry people was named
LICHTENsTEIS.
II the amount Of Wieksdness in the city
shall be reduced By the revival. that reduction
must bs put TO its credit. The converts ought
to be better men and women than they were.
and should show their betterment by their
daily conduct

A step Backward in Criminal Law

Mr.. JACOB RICE OF Rondout. who repre-
sents the Seventeenth Senate district in the
State Senate. has brought forward In the
Legislature a remarkable proposition TO
change the law relating 10 the names OF

adoption OF the Code OF Criminal Procedure.
in 1881. the law has provided that the names
OF the witnesses who have been examined
have been read before that body, must

Is presented to the Court. II the names are
omitted. It Is made the imperative duty OF
