A WOMAN'S PAPER.

The report that comes from New York that women

solely by the fair is interesting Bit of and
that will doubtless furnish much good copy para
graphers. Whenever women essay do something all
by themselves without reference man. is considered
to be sidesplttng proposition. Just why it is re-
garded funny stated There is no reason the
world why if desire inaugurate business and
employ only in its management, they should
not do On the other hand there is particular
why they should do
Women in their dream of equality, have been de-
handing that the question of be abolished in the
business world and have asked that if their ability do
certain work be great that of men, they be allowed
to stand equal chance of obtaining positions They have
claimed that there sex in brain. These demands
certain extent have been granted by in charge
of business enterprises Women have had their chance.
Aside from the admitted fact that in business
house has been given less wages than in similar
position it cannot be fairly said that have been
Disseminated against in the business world Now it is
undoubted fact that the employing of women in many
large enterprises is the decrease This surely
the fault of the women themselves Where it has hap
pened men say that have traded upon their sex
to do inferior work, all the time claiming and asking
equality.
In establishing womans paper or womans
anything else, the weaker doing the very thing
that for fifty they claim to have fought against If
men and women should together in business en-
terpr1ses on equal terms why wonans paper? How
would they like if the papers managed by men should
announce that they mems papers?" While there
is no why paper edited and managed by women
should not be readable and bright, is probable that
should 1t become fact will be considered huge joke
and its life short Considering their propaganda
for equality this womans paper would seem to be step
backwards.

Russia,s. Serious DANGER.

Russia has succeeded in ingratiating
herself with the Chinese authorities to
such an extent that not only does she
easily obtain concessions for her own
benefit, but she also exercises a potent
influence over the Chinese policy to-
ward other nations. This is evidenced
by the fact that the recent proposal
to allow two ports to be opened is is
sued jointly by the two governments
and by the extensive franchises now
being exploited by Russia throughout
the Celestial empire
One cannot avoid the conclusion that
the ear is not satisfied with present
success, but that ne contemplates still
further aggression as soon as the time
may be ripe.
= One danger confronts the emperor
which he perhaps does not fully COM
prehend. namely. the possible disinte-
grafton of his own dominionS. His is
not by any means homogeneous peo-
pie. He has done and is doing his ut
most to assimilate the homogeneous
hordes that make up Russia's teeming
millions; but he is not attempting to
develop thef1i, which is the only sue
eessfuT method Of assimilation.
He is magnifying his empire by ex-
tension rather than intension. He has
temporized with the other powers on
European question, he has neglected
the social aneiioration of his subjects,
he has allowed himself to be penned
UP in Europe, he has eonciliated the
powers on every hand, all for the sue
cess of his Eastern coup.-St. Joseph

ALCOHOL FOR ARTS AND MANUFACTURES.

There has been strong movement at several times
in the past of reduced taxation alcohol used
the arts and in manufacture Hitherto 1t has run up
against the blank wall of opposition to all reductions of
taxation for our heavily taxed people Recently some
facts have been made public that show the immense IN
dustrial Importance of such change.
For purposes of comparison the statistics of allied
industries in which alcohol plays part in Germany are
given The tax there So cents per proof gallon IN the
United States it $IIo The total consumption OF alco-
lol Germany for industrial purposes leaving bever-
ages entirely of the account is 85,5ooooo gal
lens while that the United States with half many
more people, barely 100000 gallons Germany also
exports millions of gallons than the United States
The great importance of the subject lies in the fact
that alcohol is being turned and to industrial
1t is becoming one of the great fuels to which
the increasing multitude of for their supply
of energy Steam launches, hand lamps, agricultural ma
chnery all kinds of work where moderate power IS re-

an important part includes an immense amount OF the
ordinary and familiar products of the factory And 1t

in general use At the time it argued reasonably
that the expansion of demand and OF consunp
manufacture and the arts that would take place
would only make good to the government any loss
of owing to lessened taxation but very material

The sentimental connection in the public mind be-
tween alcohol and Intoxicating beverages is mostly re-
sponsibe for the indifference of the people to this ques
ton and the failure of those who advocate tax reduction
to make progress. But it alcohol not used for such
purposes and that alone the substance to be ap-
