WOMEN COMPETING WITH MEN.

Men Must Make UP Their AKinds Thai
Women Are IN Industry TO Stay.
The example Of the Brooklyn elevated
railways in substituting women for men
as ticket agents will very likely be fol.
lowed in New York 1t is said that,
while the service of women in the Brook.
lyn Offices is cheaper than that Of men,
it is not less efficient or less courteous.
The Brooklyn managers say that they
have taken account only Of economy and
utility.
Women have as good right as men
have to take any kind of honest work
which they ere able to perform or which
they csn secure. Within a few years
past they have entered into hundreds of
industries which had previously bea1
followed by men alone, and we must
suppose that they have found it to thei1
advantage to do so. The unnumbered inr
ventions Of the age have opened up new
fields of activity for them. The ever ex-
tending employment of machinery in
production has enabled them to do things
which formerly required such strength
as ia possessed by men alone. Even with
in 10 years there has been an immense
increase in the number of women who
are experts in skilled trades. Women
clerks and counter walters have sup
planted men in thousands Of establish
ments, wholesale and retail There are
several thousand feminine typewuters
and telegraph operators in the city. Lit
erary women are turning out books upon
all subjects in rivalry with men, wom-
en- teachers abound as never before, and
we have seen a long list Of female lee
turers, all waiting to receive orders.
What are the men to do about 1t allf
In the first place, they have been able to
get along about as well as usual during
the 10, 20 or more years in which wom-
en- have been largely superseding them
in many branches Of activity.
In the second place, it is beyond the
power Of the men to keep women ont
Of any industry which they wish to fol-
/ low and in which they can earn the
wages that they need. The mon may as
we'll mako up their minds that this is
solemn fact. Men will havo to turn their
attention more than ever to these indus
tries which they alone are capable Of
pursuing. There are lots Of things which
women cannot do as well as men and
which must be done By the stronger sex.
Then, again, there are hordes Of bach
elors who, if they were to marry, as
they ought to do, could very speedily
and largely reduce the competition Of
women in the labor market.
We guess that, as the saying goes,
"things will adjust themselves" here
after, as things arc always pretty sure to
do on this eyerchanging old earth. ---

Atlnospheric Exnnrlsiona.

Some interesting observations Of q
cosnical nature aro announced as having
been made by M. Frye, the we'll known
hydrographical engineer, who after years
Of patientstu has calculated the atmos-
pheric expansions and depressions which
coincide with spring and neap tides. He
declares there have been cases in which
air was moved in waves 1873 yards high,
and in places where the barometrical
pressure was seven-tenths of an inch, or
61s miles, near the upper surface of the
earth's atmosphere, condensations and
dilations Of this magnitude being fre-
quent, the incandescent and fluid mat
ter under the earth's crust is found to
act in concert with the air and sea at
the full Of the moon This conclusion is
bascd upon the data Of observations
made simultaneously at different and
widely distant geographical points, the
fact being established that the earth
rises and falls like the ocean and the

TINKERING STATE MEN.

"Tinkering statesmen is a new coin
age applied to character quite fam
liar TO the reading public. The orig
inal idea of sending Legislators to leg.
islate has dwindled to the dimensions
OF an unknown quantity. The office is
used too often as means to an end,
and that end the individual advance
ment OF the incumbent 1t is humiliat-
ing TO the electors of any community
that the duties and privileges. dele
gated by them to trusted candidate,
are prostituted to such uses, yet the
spectacle is so familiar that the Often
sive term of 'tinkering' is not inaptIy
applied in the majority of cases. 1t is
time for the candidate to consider
whether his motives are purely selfish,
or whether actuated by the better pur-
pose of serving his constituents in the
manner contemplated in his election.
The average voter is thinking upon
these lines as he never did before.
Called by the party yoke, and COM
promiSedby the evOlutionS of party
machinery, he is cultivating a spirit of
independence that is liable to prove
disastrous to machine candidates. If
this is the beginning of a reform which
will bring out the unSelfish, capable
candidate who will make his indiyid-
ual advancement secondary to his Off
cial duties, we may look for 4 higher
ideal of lawmakers.

OFFICIAL DECENCY DEMANDED.

If the honest people Of Wichita are
more unanimous touching any one de-
sire or conviction than another, it is
that a decent administration OF our
city police affairs shall be had for the
future The average citizen is tired
of hearing open accusations and whls-
pered scandals of crookedness here,
Matchmaking there and gang hood
ling all around. Official corruption has
been not only more or less continu-
ously limited at for the past four years,
but of late such charges and counter
charges are made as to warrant prose
cutions in open court. The average
taxpayer does not believe that the
revenues are uniformly collected and
when so collected that they reach the
public treasury unimpaired. Business
men and right thinking people of this
city, generally, have been sorely veXed
and tried not only by the surmises of
others but by damaging evidences all
too convincing.
The days of scandals should cease.
There must be an end TO the COM
plants of those who have been bled
and robbed no less than to the open
and covert charges of official cOrrup-
ton. 1t is possible to run the public
affairs of q city like Wichita in q man
ner so honest and open rs TO leave no
room for even the pessimiSt TO COM
plain. Whatever the line of policy de-
cided upon that policy should be so
carried out as to render just criticism
impossible. An honest police com
mission, made up of capable men is a
prerequisite. A man of integrity and
sound judgment for city marshal. not
a political boss, but man possessing
such executive ability and discern
ment as will make it well nigh imposs-
bic for dishonest or unworthy man
to stay on the police force, is abso-
lutely necessary. With these and q
clean prosecuting attorney, and all
scandal will not only cease, but every
cent of revenue paid will promptly go
into the city treasury; not only Will
highway robbery on principal streets
and house robbery be less frequent
but charges of official blackmailing be
heard no more.
