A sLANDER ON WOMEN

A New York writer says that a
clergyman, preached a very bitter
and denunciatory sermon recently,
against woman's suffrage, and
against women in public life. The
pith of his discourse was to the eff
feet that womans participation
would not purify but polute politics
This ministerial gentleman should
turn his attention for a moment to
what is happening in the Ashland
District, away down in old Ken
lucky. He will find, by a very lit
tie inquiry, that Congressman
Breckenridge, if he is beaten in his
scandalous campaign for reelection
will owe his defeat to the women OF
his district in general, and to one
high-minded, strong-willed woman
of Kentucky in particular, Mrs.
Luke Blackburn.
Here is an American woman OF
the highest character, standing IN
the very front rank of Kentucky's
social leaders, who does not hesitate
to participate in politics And the
motive of her action is determine
ton to redress a great moral wrong,
and hunt the wrongdoer out OF pub
lie life. This was the impulse that
brought her to the witness stand in
Washington, and it is the same that
is inspiring her efforts now to pre-
vent Col. Breckinridge's reelection
It was doubtless due mainly to her
example and leadership that, when
this soied statesman appeared on
the platform Of the Lexington Op
era House the other night, there
was not one woman in the whole
audience.
The man, be he clergyman OF
layman, who believes that the in
Auence Of woman as voters woult
be against public morality and de
cency, has read history upside down
and studied human nature to nopur
pose. To make such and assump
ton is, in effect, to believe that th'
great majority of American womel
are not as well disposed morally a
the great majority of American
men. And to assert any such prop
osition as that is simply treason t.

writer in the Popular Science
monthly. In the rural districts OF
Canada, Satan is supposed to be
very active. His company may be

accidental appearance of a little
child in the room often betrays the
presence of the evil spirit, as the,
poor innocent is sure to bewail it.
self vigorously. The Prince Of
Darkness may be met at ball in
the guise Of a handsome young man
who excels all the rustic gallants in

the trammels of conyentionality by

dian tribes, has returned to Wash
ington, from his recent trip to the
Indian country. In conversation,
on this important subject, the EX-
Senator gave free expression to his
views. He said that the commission
was beginning to feel that it was
making progress, but the work un-
til recently had been very slow, ow-
ing to the fact that the head men
among the Indians were not dis
posed towards any change of pres
ent conditions. There had, howev-
er, been perceptible improvement in
the outlook since the recent visit of
the senate committee on the five
civilized tribes, whose plain talk had
the effect of causing some of the
Indians to see that achange of some
kind from the present condition
would soon be necessary, Senator
Dawes expressed the opinion that a
territorial form of government
would solve the questions which are
now in such unsatisfactory condi-
tions, but before wholesale change,
such as that would involve, could be
brought about he thought other
minor changes would be necessary,
such as reformation of the judici-
ary system and a settlement of
land questions. The Dawes commits
sion is now engaged upon the latter
problem, which is one of such intri-
cacies as to require great deal OF
careful work, While he was not
disposed to go into details, he ex
pressed the opinion that the lands
of the several tribes would be divid-
ed pro rata among the Indians. If
this system should be adopted the
Choctaws and Chickasaws would re-
ceive 900 or !, 900 acres each, while
a member of the other three tribes
would get an average of about l6O
acres each.

AN ELOQUENT ADDRESS.

Col, Dan W, Jones, one of the
most prominent lawyers, and most

ed most eloquent and touching
address, at Little Rock, on Monday.
of this week, the occasion being
Decoration day, in honor of those
who fought aud died, for the lost
cause The closing words of his
address, which were especially
touching and beautiful, were as fol
lows:
Ladies of the Memorial Associa-
tion, right well and beautiful has
your noble work been done; and in
the name Of those who lie buried
here, whose mute lips can no more
raise the battle shout, nor plead
for the cause they died for; and in
the name of all soldiers of the
South, both living aud dead; in the
name of our common country and
of those who shall come after us, |
thank you for it. Peace, universal
peace, now reigns throughout our
land The causes for dissension,
! discord and disuniOn have disap-
peared forever Our country, our
whole country is happy united and
prosperous. Time, the tomb-build-
err the molliher of human passion
and prejudice, is fast erasing the
pencil marks of differences which
once existed between us. Our chill
dren, if not ourselves, will live to
see the day when the American
people will feel as justly proud of
the glorious achievements wrought
by the soldiers Of the Confederacy,
as by those of the Union Army.
But whether they do or not we can
raise our hands on high in the full
sunlight of heaven and submit the
purity of our motives, the honesty
Of our purposes, and the integrity
our action to Him who iudgeth as
no man can Judge, and we fear not
the Judgment which shall be render
ed by Him.
His address was received with ap-
plause and a member of the Omer

and thanked him in a few beautiful
sentiments for his tribute to the
