THE ADVANCE GUARD.

We do not believe that the Delaware
Equal Suffrage Association represents
large proportion of the women of
Delaware. There is nothing on the
surface of current political events to
indicate that the women Of our state,
as a class, wish to exercise the elective
franchise. That some of them do there
is no doubt, as was demonstrated by
the presentation to the Constitutional
Convention of a petition for a consti-
tutional provision extending to the
women of Delaware equal suffrage
with men, but they constitute the ad-
vance guard rather than the great body
of Delaware women.
While no one will deny that ma
jority of them is better equipped to
exercise the elective franchise than
many Of the ignorant, venal and vi
cious men who now possess and misuse
it, we seriously doubt whether the
present convention will deem it expe.
dent to grant such a power upon sucf
a small representation of women.

CONSPIRICY.

One of the latest yarns with which the wicked Popocratic managers are trying to influence the voters is that there is a conspiracy among employers to reduce wages after the election of Mckinley. If this were true, it might be said it would require a conspiracy to bring about a reduction in wages if Mckinley is elected and confidence re- stored. Business would pick up so that labor would be in demand. If Bryan is elected no extra conspiracy to reduce wages will be needed. Wages will come down without any other conspir- acy to bring them down than that which was made at the Chicago con- vention. A conspiracy to get work at any wages will be the kind of conspir- acy needed then.
 Will sensible workingmen vote for a panic and reduction in wages?

CONSISTENT.

The treatment of the Hon. John G. Carlisle secretary of the treasury, by some of the people of Covington, Ken lucky, is only another manifestation of the spirit which is underneath the whole Popocratic campaign. That spirit is hostile to good order and good government. Mir Carlisle is member of the national government. He stands second in rank in the cabinet of the president of tho United States. This fact alone should serve to protect his person from violence and command for him a respectful public hearing in any city of the Union. Beyond this he has been signaily honored by Kentucky for years, and has certainly earned the right to at least enter his native State without molestation.
 The throwing of eggs at the secre- tary of the treasury and the attempts to interfere with the right of free speech are entirely consistent with the spirit of the party that is assailing the party seems to be getting desperate. It should be careful how it reveals it's real spirit during the next week if 1t wants to get votes.

ROYCOTTING IN JAPAN.

Japan is very progressive nation,
 but 1t has not yet got beyond the bar barous boycott. In the latest British consular report from Hiogo a special paragraph is devoted to boycotting, which is said to flourish still, to be con stantly employed, and to have become an established institution of Japan, ow- ing to the trade guilds and the strict ness with which the members are ruled. The consul mentions two recent cases of boycotting which have excited a good deal of discussion. One was an agitation against Chinese merchants in Japan to compel them to put an end to the old custom of levying commits sion and a percentage from the Japan ese. The combination against the Chi nese was a powerful one, and consisted of many guilds, including those of sugar, silk fabrics, iron and copper, and marine products. In another case a leading British firm of Yokohama inn ported to the order of a prominent Jap anese merchant, who is director of an important bank, a parcel of goods.

COERCION.

According to Chairman Jones, head Popocratic pusher, the workingmen of this country are being coerced to vote to maintain the present large purchas- ing power of the dollars they earn and to vote for condition of things under which the business that gives them work can be safely done.
 Do the workingmen need to be CO., creed to do this? We believe they do not. Don't they know enough to do it without coercion? We believe they do. If they don't, of course they shouldn' t be coerced by those who see the situa- tion more clearly than they do No- body should be coerced, even for his own good. But those workingmen who need to be coerced for their own good in this campaign shouldn't consult with their employers, who might give them good advice. They should hire an able bodied mule with able heels to kick them into the right path and then offer @ vote of thanks to the mule.

When the latter arrived the Japanese re- fused to take delivery, and the British importers having instituted legal pro- ceedings in the native courts, judgment was given against the Japanese, who was ordered to take delivery of the whole of the goods and to pay the plaintiffs the cost and charges. There upon, the guild of which the defendant is member decided that the British importers and plaintiffs should be boy cotted If they insisted on maintaining and enforcing their Judgment, and as the resident partner of the British firm deemed it inexpedient to face a general boycott in Japan the firm submitted to compromise involving a serious loss,
 Japan can hardly claim to be en- tirely civilized while the boycott con- tinues to flourish there.

 Here's the prettiest shell that comes to the islands," continued the old man, fishing several objects from his vest that looked like little cornucopias. They are the inside shell of a squid, at least shell man told me, but I have never seen the squid, and never have found dozen shells, and then after storms
 The shell justified the old mans praise. It was spirula, delicate coil about two inches across, of rich light gray color, the end stopped or closed with 8 partition of pearl, the coil it's entire length being divided up by these little partitions, each of which had a hue running through it. The shell was really relative of the pearly nautilus, and arranged on very much the same plan.

FASHION NOTES.

Liberties the Man Dressmaker Takes.
 Think of tailor having anything to do with these new silk reps that seems to be stiff cords of silk held together with little line of wool, but he is ac- tually doing so. He's managing, too, to produce all sorts of trim effects that come within the line of tailor-made, and yet are as far as can be from the gentlemanly swagger or the riding hab- it severity that tailor made once meant
 He has hobnobbed with princess mod els and makes his backs all one, or tin- ishes the band of the skirt at the back with some wicked and deceiving little points that fasten up on the bodice and give a princess effect that brings your best friend to her wits end wondering how in the world you got into the thing

those of a dressmaker remodeling a two
 year old gown, and he has strange cuts
 at the shoulders that give street and
 outdoor look to- a bodice that isn't in the least essentially outdoor.
 In this picture he even winks at but tons and when he takes to putting on
 buttons even in senseless rows they
 seem all of sudden the right thing.
 He so basely discloses the brilliantly soft satin that lines his little fraud
 jacket that when you catch that gleam,
 Mademoiselle might almost as well be in party dress. All this he does, and yet the gown maintains enough exact
 ness of effect and jauntiness of cut to come within the tailor-made category
 It may be worn with walking gloves, square toed shoes and at the very same
 time the airiest paradise feather futter
 of milliner hat All this, you have been told time and time again, cannot
 be done in good taste, but who shall say
 can or can't to man modiste when he 1 really sets his mind to 1t? The result pictured is of just the sort that catches
 your attention by some attractive,
 brand new notion, that doesn't imply extravaganza, nor challenge harmony | and good taste. Such a dress marks
 the woman who is able upon the right l occasion to be as advanced as any one
 ought to be, and who yet does not rush into new cloth with a pair of frenzied scissors. FLORETTE
