SCATTER THE MONEY.

n There is much discOntent and grumb-
ling among certain classes because Cor
nelius Vanderbilt has spent q large
amount Of money in the building Of a
new house at Newport. What better use
could any man make of his money, ex-
cept possibly to give it away in judicious
charity? In every stage of the constitute
ton Of that house was not money paid
out ito the workmen. Did not every dolr
lar invested go to the benefit Of someone?
Even the luxurious appointments pur-
chased and paid for in Europe benefited
people over there, although this coun-
try may have reaped no benefit di-
rect America can afford to be unseltish.
What if Vanderbilt had boarded his
wealth, priced it as 1niser and built
no mansion? Who would then have reap
ed a benefit? Not himself nor any one
else who lives by toll or trade or specu-
lation. Let the man who has the dol
lars be encouraged to scatter them. We
have ,nisers enough in Minnesota and If
We had fewer Of them the people gener-
ally would be much better of. a com.
munity gains nothing by the grasping
and boarding qualities Of few indtvid-
uals born with the faculty of acquisition.
And this does not mean that a man must
be spendthrift or that he shall sQuand-
er his money as fast as he gets it. When
one of the Astors spent a fabulous sum
for one of the doors Of his house he was
making division of his money among
those who needed its use. Instead Of the
act being looked upon as reckless it
should have been considered as a deed Of
generosity.
And then gossip is rife again about
the house that Charles T. Yerkes has re-
Gently built in New York. 1t is spoken
of as the height Of extravagance. But
why extravaganza as long as the street
car magnate can afford it? Each brown
stone block in that ediflce cost just 81, 900,
building itself cost 100000, the furnish
ings 100000, the ground on which the
house is built $780, 1000, and the paintings
100000. Was this money not well
spent?
The city Of Chicago might compel Mt.
Yerkes to charge less than cents for
a ride in his crowded street cars but
while that might reduce his income,
it would not prove that the expenditure
of millions of dollars in the qualifca-
ton Of any taste is sorry waste Of
wealth when one can afford the money.

THE SOLID SOUTH.

Surprising the South is not solid, what
then? Will the Republicans capture gil
the states between the Gulf and the line
known as Mason and Dixon's? In answer
TO this question it should be said that the
South is Just solid enough to keep all the
New England carpet-baggers away from
that section Of the nation If they had
hoped to win any political success in the
same manner In which they tried it years
ago. Let not the G. 0. P. bother itself too
much about the solid South. Have they
not asked time and again for solid North
in such states as Minnesota and Iowa and
Nebraska and even that silver-disturbe
state Of Colorado, not to speak Of other
states where the party held predomin-
ance? Does the Republican party ever
cease to pirate and crate, argue and tes-
tify as to its ability in keeping its North
sern plantations together? In this respect
when they meet with success is there any
limit to exultation? Do they not sing
poems Of praise that God had favored
them so-they who sprung from race
that knew nothing but the 3divinest right
of kings. Iii a hide-bound, rock-ribbed
Republican, who claims in ontbursts of
political passion that he knows no North,
nor South, no east nor no West, if you
would stick a pin YOU would find the
s:ckly flow of sectional pMtisanship to fol-
low. The pratings Of the Republicans
about solid South would be amusing
were they not so despicably partisan.
Every Republican who thinks that parti-
sanship should go before patriotism will
denounce solid South while he will howl
with the loudest acclaim for a solid North.
Every Northern state from aine to Cali
fornia must go Repub ican. BY hook or
by crook ali the states must be carried.
They must stand together for the G. o. p
And yet you would insult a Republican il
YOU told him he was standing for a solid
North. It is the Inference between your
[ox and mine. Il. tells the tale OF the man
whose toes you tread on. aaas n M

THE COMING WOrIAN.

#ttt1'he WhOio 1AEeIlectual ana pTOBreSSlfO
Western world is talking aboutsthe com
ing woman. The coming woman is
brought into mind because she is a going
woman Whether she is on her. wheel
or on her nerve, or telling You all the
beauties about her newest fad, she is
coming and COINS sneyerthe Iess. She has
brightness, viyacity and ability She
steps forth into the ranks of the world,
whether in the field of labor, thought or
the general advancement of the human
race, and is only eclipsed by her brother.
True, her sex has not prod uced3 a Shakes
peare in poetry nor Beethoven in mt-
sic, nor has the female mind led the great
armies of modern times. .
Still going back little, and without div
ing too far into MEDIEVAL times, we find
women in the century Just past greater
in intellect and acumen and statecraft
than the proudest emperor that happen
ed to surround them. Such women as
Madame Stael and Madam Recamier
and others in that glorious period In the
history of the French during the past
century should be proof positive of the
capacities Of women. 1t may be argued
that their lives were replete with in
trigue and duplicity and that the purity
Of their motives was not Of the best. Mo-
body will attempt to sustain any position
to the contrary, but they were women OF
such magnificent ability that the proud
est and most gifted intellects in war, in
craftsmanship, i'll legal attainments and
other callings Of the highest nature, bow
ed before them.
The question comes up: Have women
the power Of supremacy? Even if not
supreme can they keep pace with the
masculine element? George Eliot in her
lifetime almost kept pace with Shakes
peare, In all the matters that pertained
to plot and plan and strength of Ian
guage and capacity for the portrayal OF
varied characters. No one is the super
ior of Rosa Bonheur as an animal paint
or, and Winnie Ream is holding her own
| in the realms of sculpture, not to speak
of others of greater fame.
But are these, and such as these
of whom no mention has been made, to be
counted among the coming women? Are
not these the women of the past and the
present and such as these will be the
women of the future
Does the coming woman we speak OF
intend to be gifted in diplomacy; does
she wish to be successful in art, in liter
ature, OF science; does she wish to com
n1and the world by such progressive
ideas that make people pause and reflect,
or, unhappy and degrading though the
thought may be, does she simply want to
ride a bicycle and look like man?
We are all looking at the coming wo-
man and we see her proportions. To us
she becomes more rounded out from day
to day. We want to see more of her. In
time we will, Va Al

ARCHBISHOP IRELAND. \

In discussing the congress Of religions
held in Toronto the Western Waterman
says Of Archbishop ireland, who attended
that he is a whole congress of religions in
himself and that Protestants who do not
know the man, but who delight to hear
him, consider him a Catholic bishop, plus
something and minus something, whereas
he lisa Catholic bishop and nothing more
nor less He delights his hearers by con-
fning himself to the human and historical
side OF the church and showing them
what a sensible and big-hearted old
mother she is.
Further speaking of the archbishop the
article says he is doing a noble work
among our separated brethren and one
that he alone can perform. He demon
strates that Catholics have hearts and
consciences in the every day affairs of
life. This IS a.revelation to men who from
infancy have been taught to regard them
.as half tigers, half devils. He does more.
He shows them that Catholics love them
with all their faults and 5fanaticisms. He
shows them that they have only one law
for friend or foe, and in worldly things
that. is no other than the golden rule. He
shows them that the bad Catholic neigh
Dor, the bad Catholic citizen, is 9 bad
Catholic in everything and a Disgrace to

During the present week Archbishop
Ireland visited the Catholic Summer
School at Madison. He was received in
the most enthusiastic manner. In his adj
dress he took for his subject Science and
Religion He said the church compels
us to be seekers after natural truth. The
deeper we go into science, the 1norey we
study history, the nearer we come 70 the
heart of civilization, the closer are we
drawn to the great heart Of God, the au-
thor alike Of the wonders Of revelation
and of nature. It isfthe Mission OF the
Catholic, he said, to be the greatest scholar
and the purest citizen. In america the
highest aspirations Of mankind are inten-
siffed aspirations for knowledge and for
liberty. He admonished the, laity that
the success of the church depended upon
them. What he wanted to spring from
the summer school was realization In the
laity Of their. intellectual. and moral
power.

THE NATIONAL RANKS.

Justin Mccarthy recently sent the fol-
lowing to the Dublin Evening Telegraph:
The charge made Of selling four North
ern seats to Liberal Party absolutely I'M
true. Full statement will be published.
7 cannot too strongly condemn the making
OF baseless charges against the party at a
crisis like the present. Such proceed
ings can only result in Strengthening the
hands of the faction and d.sorganizing the
National ranks.
The statement is correct but the idea
Of disordering the National ranks any
further than they are disordered just now
would be something bordering ON the RI
diculous. This is said in pity but with a
flavor of hope. y
Duluth has magnificent sensation.
Luther Mendenhall, one Of the wealthiest
men of that city and one who led in all
the virtues, has sued for q divorce from
his wife on the grounds Of desertion. OF
course, his wife never deserted him but
chung to him closer than a burr, but then
there was Miss Kate 3, Hardy in the
case, young woman who kept fashion
able boarding school, and taking that into
consideration, it would not be difficult to
make out clear case of desertiOn on the
part of the wife. He could have accused
his wife OF highway robbery with equal
effect. Mrs. Mendenhall brought suit on
her own behalf for an absolute divorce
and in her complaint she did not forget
the pretty, piquant, daahing and insinuat-
ing Miss Hardy. So that now Duluth is
all torn up concerning the scandal and the
