Connolly takes up the question, lis
woman a menace to society,"" in answer
to Rev. Henry Frank who emphatical-
ly declared the affirmative in a recent
lecture on woman's moral weakness,
before the Philosophical Association
at Brooklyn. The article, which is
clothed in erudite language and inter
spersed with classic metaphor, is a
scorching and convincing refutation oil
the insult hung at the great majority OF
womanhood. We quote the closing
words of the editorial:

standpoint of the cause of women in
France it says. I'VE record with the great
est pleasure this new conquest at which we

shall see at last an end put to the ridiculous
anomaly Of captain earning 5000 francs

General Andres circular Is a happy blow to
the prejudice in honor among the middle
classes which consists In believing that a
woman loses caste by taking up a profess
sion or a trade. Young girls who realize
that II is more honorable to owe their posi-
ton to their personal labors than to a dot

of General Andre"

There were even men who made a busl-
ness of rendering this little service for
monetary consideration. Naturally, they
eXacted an adequate compensation and also
substantial guarantees against any undue
attachment the borrower might show
toward the valuable papers once the mar
riage ceremony had been performed. Still,
more than one officers wife owes her happy
state to the oppOrtune Intervention Of the
professional deed lender. 1t will be read
lily understood that General Andre has not
broken with the traditions Of nearly sixty
years without srousing considerable oppo-
sition on the part of the adherentS to the
old dot system. and he has been subjected
to criticism of the most severe character,
especially by the political adversaries Of the
WaldeckROusseau administration One ma
tionalist organ even goes as far as to say
that the decision taken by the minister Of
war will deal almost mortal blow to
the military organization of France"
more sober criticism comes from the mill
tary critic Of the Gaulois, who remarks:
1T Is evident that certain officers will at
the first blush believe the reform to be
beneficial, but the great majority will see
more dangers than advantages i'll 1t. Cur
lieutenants and sub-Eeutenants, who do
not receive a salary Of even 200 francs a
month, and who with this modest sum
compelled to dress, board and lodge them
selves and buy a few cigarettes, are in
Viting a life of misery should they listen to
their hearts and offer their names to young
girls unpossessed Of dots. Until now the
state constituting itself the general guar
dian of the officers, insisted upon an effec
tive guarantee for the fulfillment of the
family obligations OF a young household"
The Regulation UntenabIe.
Gen. Andre suppresses this guarantee In
reply to this argument from the military
standpoint, Camille Pelletan. the we'll
known pubicist and member of the cham
Der of deputies. writes a trenchant article
defending Gen. Andre and Justifyng the
abolition of the dot. THE dot regulation"
he says, was quite untenable. First of all,
IT restricted one of these liberties a man of
heart holds dearest, that of choosing his
rfes companion. Sometimes this choice
may be a duty of reparation. and II is
shocking to see the authority of the state
intervene to prohibit man from fulfilling
this duty. Moreover, the regime of TIE
regulation dot in It's nature essentially
arIstocratic and feudal, is In Jarring contrast
to the democratic principles of the France
of SO. II is revolving that a young girl
should be deprived of the right to marry
cause she does not happen to possess 30 600
francs. Even from the standpoint of The
officers position, the dot constitutes very
uncertain safeguard. His responsibilities
will be less heavy with a wife without
dot but with modest ideas. than with an
cXtravagant wife with a dot, whose small
income would be soon expended and ex-
ceeded." A fitting complement to this in
dOrsement of Gen. Andres measure comes
from La Fronde, the organ of the cause of
WCmen'S rights In France. La Fronde is
daily newspaper of a unique character. be-
ing written, managed and produced entirely
by women.
