Representative Underwood of Ala

There is much talk Of women;
rights these days The suffragettes are
militant and clamoring for the bal
lot other rights are demanded for
women with equal insistence. Nothing
is said about the rights of man. Poor
man is entirely neglected, and arro-
gantly is told, in effect. to go way
back and sit down
But it is said that the worm viii
turn at last. In the case of man this
saying is about to be verified in re-
gard to one of the woman's tyrannies
the ''hook-up the back" dress. From
various parts of the country come in
dications of a revolt against this fe-
male fashion, which has already passed
the stage of mild protest and is as
Stunning the form of stern demand of
the give me liberty or give me death"
order -;
In New York, this revolt is finding
expression in Nominations from the
sanctum, The Times shows the folly
% this fashion,, and the Journal in a
slugged and copyrighter leader excor-
iates it. Down with the hook up
the-back" dresses is the cry, resound-
ing with more determined energy
than the cry, Of the suffragette for the
ballot. $50.
Was this style of dress invented for
ally other purpose than to tyranize
over man? Think how the poor hem
pecked husbands have been tortured
by this device. Manipulating hooks
and safety pins and buttons is some
thing that no mere man was ever able
to accomplish with any degree of dex-
terity, and miserable has been the ex-
perience Of the poor fellows to do this
hooking up the back.
Not only are these poor men the
suffering victims of this "hook-up- the
back" fashion, but also countless poor
girls. 'As well be out of the world as
out of the fashion" and so girls not
vet in a position to act the tyrant
over man have been in sore straits.
They have felt compelled to follow
this fashion, and without husband or
lady's maid they have doubtless ex-
perieneed immense difficulty in hav-
ing themselves hooked up.
But 1.-THE cry for reform has been
raised; 1t is rising above all other
cries, and it will not down until de-
liverance SHALL come, from this de-
vice Invented to allow women to
