For OrEanixation.

There is q great deal of woman suf-
frage sentiment lying about unorganized
in all our states. In Massachusetts,, for
instance, the State Suffrage association
has only I,100 members, yet 100, 2O4
persons in Massachusetts have Just voted
for woman suffrage in that state. With
a view to getting this unorganized
sentiment organized, the following gen.
erous offer was made in the national
suffrage convention at Washington:
Carrie G. and George W. Gait pro-
pose to pay the sum Of $3.50 to the state,
whose territory lies west Of the longi-
tude Of the west line Of the state Of
Minnesota. which shall first secure a
suffrage organization based Oh club
membership auxiliary to the State and
National American Woman Suffrage as
ISOLATION, equal to 500 to each 100, 900
Of the white population. The money
is to be used for. campaign purposes, and
the offer will remain open until Jan. 1,
1900, and no longer.
Mr.. and Mrs. Gait will pay 800 to
the state east of said degree of longitude
which shall first secure a suffrage or
ganization based on a club membership
auxiliary to the State and National
American Woman Suffrage association,
equal to $50 for each 100000 of the

Education Of Women.

The Massachusetts Society for the
University Education of Women has a
beneficiary committee. In the report of
its chairman, at the recent annual meet
ing, the fact was refered to that foreign
countries support institutions in which
orphan children of gentle blood may be
reared in accordance with the former
position Of their parents. By this means
the results of generationsof cultivation
are preserved to the nation. Unfortu-
nately, however, the idea prevails here
that the boy who worked his way from
the log cabin to the White House is q
character of past history, and that the
spirit that inspired Lucy Larcom in the
mills of Lowell is no longer among our
girls.
The report showed, however, that the
girls who come to the attention of this
committee glow with the same earnest
enthusiasm that animated the noble
women of the past, and in detail related
that in the past year l 4 girls in the de-
partments OF medicine and liberal arts
have applied for loans ranging from $25
to 500. The growing appreciation that
the girls feel for the society is most
gratifying. The debt to them is one of
honor. That no interest is charged is an
expression of godspeed from women
ahead of them in the race.-New York

An exchange prints these excellent
and moderate views on dress reform
II think one Of the greatest aids to
dress reform is to encourage the wear
ing OF various styles of dress for differ
emit occasions. Let work dresses, to be
worn at home. be quite short and loose.
~ fitted, or let one wear the bicycle
trousers. if liked. Encourage the wear
ing of divided skirts. For walking in
cities and for travelling let the dress
clear the ground. There should be no
extra trimming to catch dust, and the
general effect should be one of trimness.
Long dresses might be worn upon cere-
monial occasions. The more diverse the
styles the less conspicuous real dress re-.
form will be.

A FUTURE FOR KENOsHA.
Much Business Can Be Brought Here
Which Overfiows Chicago.

We have more than once called at
tention to the chance for the building
p~of a shipping interest at this city,
and have given reasons for this chance.
These are the lack of accommodation
and the high cost of doing business in
Chicago. These two objections are
driving large interests to other points
that are near Chicago and where the
business can be done cheaper An ar
ticle in Thursdays Times Herald gives
an illustration where one of the richest
of the eastern coal railroads will give
up It's high priced docks in Chicago
and will go to South Chicago. tits this
overflow of business in Chicago that
has built up South Chicago into great
manufacturing and shipping port.
1t is not so very many years ago that
South Chicago was planning for the
business, and when capitalists put in
money for the improving Of the harbor
and building docks, they were consid
cred wild. But time endorsed the
Judgment of those enterp7ising men.
So it will be with our city. It's natural
location is superior to that of any port
adjacent to Chicago; it has a fins har-
Dor and large manufacturing interests
already.
In speaking of companies that are
moving now from Chicago, the same
paper says: Several of the larger coal
companies are preparing to handle all
of their heavy shipping business from
South Chicago, where It is possible to
have larger docks, equally good rail
facilities and lessened cost Of handling.
The new docks are accessible to all the
western roads by means of the two belt
lines" This is just the point-large
docks, rail facilities and lessened cost
Of handling and part of these Keno
sha now has, and she will have all of
them as soon as our citizens wake up to
a better realization of the great things
we are constantly losing by reason Of
the inadequacy of our harbor.

was made to get something done for it.

was an effort which dropped perfectly
flat after q very few weeks. Now
Congress is in session and there is
hardly a dispatch which comes from

which does not tell Of what the various
congressman are doing for nearly every
other harbor along the west shore of
Lake Michigan. Where is Kenosha?
Not in it. Not mentioned. Her name
kept as silent as the grave. Why?
Because the citizens do not seem to
care enough about the interests we are
constantly losing to be willing to bear
down heavy on our congressman in
such way that action will become
necessary. Kenosha needs a few blows
dealt from the shoulder now. 1t is the
place and the time now for our bust
