In my opinion, these Chautauqua

for professional women. The very

tauqua cOngenial, at least, people who
live at Newport, etc, with all which
that implies and it is out of reach of
the very poor. but the average, which
is, after all, the important factor of
this country, will, l think. more and
more, resort tOplaces like Chautauqua
for their summer outing. 1t covers
the needs of the average i'm the matter
of expenditure. You could spend $35
a week at Chautauqua, and you can
be very comfortable there on s. a

Right here is suggestion for the
state federatiOns-that at the various
chautauquas scattered throughout
the country, they maintain a Feder-
alton house for the benefit of club
members, but especially for members
Of limited incomes and professional
women. They could not do a better
work for the cause Of education than
this, or one more needy. 1t is SEN

Chautauqua is more or less an expert
ment, and / went there simply to see.
As l had but two days i'm which to
see il all, could not be wise, but lit
orally flew from one thing to another.
The first day had an early break
fast-early to me-but found / was
late i'm comparison with many of my
friends. The first course of classes,
beginning at i'm the morning, neces-
states for those attending them
breakfast at 7:3O. Immediately after
breakfast 1 went to the kindergarten
school. A mothers meeting was i'm
session, and at 9 O'Clock the kinder
garten meets. At left the children
and went to Mrs. Ewing's lecture on
cooking" and stopped i'm at the
school of typewriting and stenog-
raphy. At IL spoke in the hall of
philosophy and afterward met the
club women who were i'm attendance
at the lecture. At 3 o'clock attended
Professor A. B. Adams (of Johns
HOpkins) lecture on ''Chautauqua and
American Summer Schools" This is
in the course on education which is
being given, and the large number OF
teachers i'm attendance proves that
Chautauqua is a favOrite summer re-
sort among the profession. At5O'clOck
Professor w. L. Bryan lectured on
plato and Teachers" Mr.. Bryan is
a young man who is extremely pOpu-
lar and beautiful speaker.
After dinner the band p'ayed on the
porch and the lake front was crowded,
women predOminating, walking up
and down before going to bed OF to
the auditorium. At O'Clock Profess
sOr w. Douglass Mackenzie read from
Ian Maclaren and the readings were
illustrated by the stereOpticOn. As
Professor Mackenzie is ScOtchman.
he literally added the beauty Of his
voice and perception to Ian Maclaren's
work, so that it was most enjoyable
occasion. 1t is said that the amphi-
theatre seats ten thousand people. 1t
isopen all around, and the acoustic
properties are SO good that any one
with a clear enunciatiOn and voice
that carries could easily be heard.
These evening entertainments are
one Of the great charms Of life at
ChautauGua: they always commence
at $50. and are over by 10 or 1890: the
whole assembly is quiet. no loud talk
ing or midnight parties are allowed,
every one goes early to bed and gets
up early. The character of the even
ing entertainment is always popular,
but i'm good taste, and the children at
tend the first part.
The second evening was at Chau-
tauqua there was a concert Of Ameri-
can dialect music, negro and creole,
and it was perfectly charming. The
evening after left there was to be an
illustrated lecture on American Illus
tratiOns and illustrators by A. T. Van

recitals i'm the auditorium: the chill

One secret Of the success Of Chau-

Lynch law is not justitiable except as
it promotes justice. Political parties
cannot be relied upon to bring about
reforms in administration. Human
nature is so much alike that reforms
must come from the enlightened con-
science of the ofiice-holder and from
the demands of an enlightened public
sentiment. The successful banker
and business man must be scrupulous-
ly fair and honest in his dealings with
the public. The official should be
the same. The banker or business
man who would overreach or take adj
vantage of the public soon Sloses all
confidence and patronage. To get
public attention aroused to abuses in
public affairs, the official guilty OF
such abuses must be pilloried and
pounded aud made an example Of
The educational influence that results,
is as beneficial as that of a necessary
lynching.

The selection Of a West Point cadet
from this district should be conducted
according TO the almost universal GUS
tom of appointing an examining COM
mittee, and setting a time when all
the young men Of the district who de-
sire to compete shall be examined and
the one passing the highest examina-
tion to be recommended by the con-
gresham for appointment. The place
is TO be secured for son of state
official by petition of Republicans to
Congressman Tongue. This is not
right. The young man VIII" is trying
to get it in this way is a worthy young
man, hut the plan of procedure is not
worthy of appreciation and the con-
gresham from this district should
not be influenced by IL. He sho1ld
follow the custom all over the United
States, as above indicated. That is
American. 1t is Democratic. 1t Is
fair, just, equal rights to all. The
petition plan is an usurpation, that
fills West Point with favored class
and tends to make 1t an aristocratic
institution, an idea not to be toler-
ated in the war department.

The Graeco.Turkish war has slim
ulated interest in the study of Greece
and the people Of Greece. Universal
public sympathy was with Greece.
or this there is no doubt. Only her
complete failure after taking the
field, her collapse as power of any
class whatever. the absence Of courage
and endurance on the part of her
soldiery, lost her the victory. "The
Wreck of Greece" specially pre-
pared article by Henry Norman, cor
respondent for the London Chronicle,

tober Scribner. Now that 1t is possible
to look back upon the recent struggle

cleared away by this notable paper
Mr.. Norman, besides being one OF the
most talented of modern correspond
ents, had the advantage Of personal
acquaintance at Athens, and among
the officers of the Greek army. In
this article he will relate for the first
time certain. conversations that he
had with the king, with whom ne
was in confidential relations, and he
will show just what was going on be-
hind the scenes, and how much more
reasonable Greece's attitude was than
most of us thought at the time. lie

The controversy about the conduct
of the Oregon state treasurer is found
ed upon the proposition that all pub
lie records must be open to the pub
lie. The treasurer is well paid. He
has the most lucrative Office In the
state. The law makes it felony tn
speculate in public funds. 1t is not
assumed that this is done. But If it
is not done, why the great secrecy
about the public funds? A treasurer
with princely Income could afford to
be fair, just and open with the people
he serves if he has nothing to conceal.
But there is not an Office in the city,
county or state, the records Of which
should not beopen to the public. The
Official who says here are my books;
come and inspect them; they are open
to the world; such an official has the
confidence of, the public and has it be-
cause he deserves it. But in the Ore
gon state treasury, there is exactly
the opposite condition of affairs.
There is no publication Of its affairs,
except the biennial report to the leg
islature, not'printed until the legisla-
ture adiourns. No statement is al

annual report is kept under lock and
