WOMAN'S MISDIRECTION.

= A Clergyman of ST. Paul, Mimi,
named Smith, some time ago took up
the subject which has been so much
treated in these columns during several
years, the danger to civilization from
the entrance into business and the
walks of masculine labor by women,
and has been preaching the same doc
trine, we assume, to which the "Rec-
ord Union" has given voice for ten
years or more regarding the employ
ment of women.
Because Rev. Mr.. Smith has argued.
as well he might, that as women trench
upon the field Of labor natural to man,
they injure their sex and equally Grip
pie the efficiency of the other as bread
winner and care-taker he has been
taken to task. He now returns to the
charge, say the dispatches, and intro
duces a new count in the indictment.
He claims, and upon historic grounds
bases his allegation, that as woman be-
comes a worker in mans field of labor,
she approaches the parallel Of the con-
dition when the weaker sex was in a
state of quasi slavery, serving her
master in mental tasks. On the lines
of direction she is now proceeding in
this matter Mr.. Smith thinks woman
is leading us on the road to a new
savagery.
For, he holds, the drift of the evil is
to the condition when the strength of
the nation will be drained by sapping
the life of it's future mothers. This is
not, however, altogether a new position.
1t has been presented in another form
by many writers and sociologists, and
has been quoted in these columns. We
firmly believe despite the citations of
European example where women have
SO long been employed in hard labor
outside the home without, it is claimed,
apparent i'll effect upon society, that
the result with US, where the class
distinctions are not preserved and
should never be, the push of women
into business as we'll as outside labor,
works destruction of donesticity,
cheapens the labor of man and renders
him less able to found the family and
build the home.
1t means the breaking down of that
femininity which is the strength of
womanhood and glory of motherhood;
the growth of Discrimination for matri-
mony and consequent relaxation of
moral restraint; the decay of respect for
womanhood and the decline of the
chivalrous spirit in men-in short, the
more woman displaces man in the
walks of business and labor outside the
home, the worse it is for both sexes
and the greater the menace to a high
state Of civilization.
We have no information as to who
Rev. Smith is, how he holds in other
sociological matters, nor what his views
may be regarding the many current
questions. but on this one whether he
blows a penny trumpet or sounds a
bugle blast, he strikes note Of woful
truth.

but it is lacking in good judgment; is
too much operated by mere sympathy
without the balance of business sense.
It often means disbursement by i'm
pulse, by the sympathetic condition OF
the mind at the time of the call in those
who are fitted neither by business ex-
perience nor a broad knowledge of the
principles of the science-for it is
science-of private and public relief
By the New York system the question
of the preserving the existence of char
ity organizations will be confined to
them wholly, and will not at all enter
into the economics of the city. That
will concern itself alone with the relief
of worthy distress, the prevention of
crime and the protection of society
against the influences which propagate
dependents.
There is reason to believe that the
action of the city of New York indi-
Gates the approach of the time when
municipalities will take over wholly
work having relation to general relief.
Indeed it is within the possibilities of
the near future when all organized
charities, excepting only those which
relate to confraternal societies and re-
ligious orders, will be controlled by mu-
nicipal authority.
We believe that this assumption upon
the part of communities as political
bodies is supported by the fact that
wherever communities have undertaken
such work it has been found to be pow
erful influence in abolition of the ne
cessity for disbursing charity. 1t tends
to make such communities look to the
cause of distress and to remove them,
instead, as they now do, either directly
or by neglect fostering them.

Belgium, like Holland, is a little king
dom surrounded by powerful states
with mighty armies. tits what is known
as a neutral buffer state between the
two great rivals, Germany and France.
European treaty law has done what it
can to protect its territory against inva-
sion from any quarter, but the fate Of
Denmark in 1864, when Prussia and
Austria united in attacking it, is a warn
ing that the most solemn pledges of
diplomacy are sometimes wantonly
broken. Belgian policies are identical
with those of Holland. The kingdom
has no foreign alliances, is absorbed in
its own affairs, avoids any occasion for
giving offence to any great power, and
devotes its energies to the enlargement
Of its commerce. 1t has an empire in
the heart of Africa known as the Kongo
Free State, and it is anxious to by the
Canary Islands from Spain and TO
strengthen its navy. 1t is forced to acl
cautiously from fear of creating i'll
feeling in France, Germany or England.
The King of the Belgians is one of the
wisest rulers in Europe, and the nation
owes much TO his sagacity. He has
Travelled widely, and he has used his
eyes wherever he has gone. His one
disappointment, as he is never weary
of telling American ministers in Brus-
sells is his inability to plan long jour
ney to the United States. ut may not
yet be too late" he usually adds, with
smile. King Leopold III. is the founder
OF the Kongo Free State. Without this
vast project Belgium would have been
inferior TO Holland as a colonial power.
He was ridiculed as royal india-rub-
Der merchant when he starter that
great undertaking, but he was in rea ity
the only far-sighted Belgian. The i'm
portance Of Belgium has been largely
increased and her position in Europe
has been strengthened by her African
possessions. The King is a man with a
capacity for large ideas His minis
tiers are always frightened by his plans.
lie is not obstinate, but is always will
ing to bide his time. After trying to
substitute projects OF their own for
those favored by him, his ministers u u
ally confess that his judgment was bet
ter than theirs. This has happened not
only in the KOngo enterprise, but also
in the recent undertakings for improv-
ing Brussels and converting it into
handsome, spacious capital. The King
at 63 is the most useful citizen in Bel
gium-a wise ruler, with real genius
for the business of state.

committee which was sent to Washington
some time since to confer with the gov
eminent regarding Cuban affairs.
1t was finally decided to have the report
printed and to hand copy of it to each
member of the assembly, that they might
study it carefully. The fact that the
offer of S3,OO0,00O, on basis OF 500 pay
for each soldier was adopted and that
efforts to obtain more failed, makes OBJ
ligatory the assembly's ratification of The
acceptance of the proposition OF the United

A writer in the Forum, who an
nounces himself as having been a
tramp, with no literary or sociolog-
ical Motives" defines and differentiates
that particular genus as follows: "a
tramp is not a hobo; hobo Is not a
tramp; vagrant is neither, and a
criminal Is none of these" The tramp's
sole object in life Is to "have a little
fun" but without that work which
most of us find a necessary prelude to
true enjoyment. Work he despises,
and not even the pangs of hunger will
Induce him to engage in 1t when 1t is
made preliminary to a promised meal.
The hobo Is, in most cases, a man who
is driven to the road from want Of that
which the tramp loathes-work. He is
a victim of circumstances, and not a
social parasite. The vagrant is a
loafer in towns and cities so long as he
finds 1t safe and profitable. He is
often a "grafter is, creature
who stimulates lameness and cutaneous
diseases in order to excite pity and
charity, and is apt to be addicted either
to drink or opium. The hobo is never
a CRATER" the tramp rarely. The
writer thinks 1.-The tramp should be
given up as hopeless" to be helped or
denied. as those to whom he appeals
may feel inclined But he pleads for
the hobo. HE IS young" he says; 'he
can work; he is inclined to work"
Manhood and self-respect are not dead
within him, and sympathy and oppor-
tunity given him may save for society
a worthy member.

Rico, recently saw a strangely unwont-

flags to the various schools of the city.
Principals, teachers, scholars-even the
small lads Of the orphan asylum-all
were there. Marching at the head Of
each school was youthful and-who
can doubt?-supremely proud bearer Of
the standard-the emblem of new
hopes, aspirations and wider possibili-
ties. There are, 1t is stated, six hun
dred schools-public and private-on
the island and to each a flag is to be
given. Is it too much to hope that, in
due season, childish voices will make
Its significance vocal In mind and
heart?

A Havana paper, the Discussion, de
scribes the finding of fifty human skele-
tons in a well near Maguito, Cuba, and
says that their attitude and appear
ances were such as to convey the i'm
preston that the persons were thrown
sn while alive. The same paper also
says that the remains of between two
and three hundred people were found
sn a well near Matanzas. Thus the evil
dence accumulates that the United
States was justified in kicking the
Spaniards out of the island and ending
the reign of medieval barbarity at our
doors
