The Pride of Southern Women

It must be admitted that the woman of
the new South is proud. a trait which
she also inherited from her ancestors in
the female line. but this pride is less
positive than relative, writes Julia Ma
gruder, in Harper's Bazaar. 1t is when
she compares herself with her North
ern sisters that it specially comes out.
AS rule. it proceeds from inexper1ence
in worldly ways. necessitated by very
isolated life. and sometimes it is speed
flv corrected by little travel, and an
enforced consideration of the many
points in which the women she has look
ed down upon are her superiors. An
acknowledgment of this fact, however.
is not in her-either in the past or in
the present. That will have to be left
tn the Southern woman of the future.

<Sao .gton, April SLOW the Dewey
i. Atial matter started and the true
inwa. mess OF it was today told The Post
correspondent. The gentleman giving the
information is a prominent politician of the
Palmer and Buckner stripe and he placed
an inhibition on his name being used 10
connection with the statement.
"The Dewey boom for the presidency
was launched prematurely and on that
account it may die a-bornin.' The devel-'
opments of the last few days show how the
best laid plans OF mice and men gang aft
agley.' So said this goldbug All tho
arrangements for making Dewey a prrsl-
made in New York at dinner given by
William C. Whtney. former secretary Of
the navy under Cleveland, at which only
prominent gold men were present. Tue
purpose of this gathering of gold men
who deserted Bryan In 1896 was to select
some one, IL possible who could defeat
ITyan for the democratic nomination at
the Kansas City convention. The name
of Arthur P. German was the first men
toned and he was quickly disposed OF be-
cause II was thought he was too close to
the silver men and that his senatorial
defeat would interfere with his name be-
ing used. The only other names seriously
discussed were those of Richard olney OF
Massachusetts, and Augustus Van wyck OF
New York. The objection to olney was
his connection with trusts and corpora
tions and Van Wyck was equally unfa-
vored on account OF the fact that there
had been tentative launching of his
presidential boom which had fallen by the
wayside
After considerable discussion It was
agreed that the best move would be to
make a grand stand play with the name
of Admiral Dewey at the Kansas City
convention. All agreed to this aud the
only question was whether the admiral
would allow his name to be used. Nr.
