2 THE EVENING STAR. WAS HINGTON For full details of Mr. Ritchie’s local government Dill, introduced last Monday evening in the British house of commons, one must await the arrival of ‘tye slow-moving transatlantic mails, the cable having given us only @ brief bint of its provi- sions It appears to be a measure, as its title would indicate, for the transfer to Jocal officers, chosen directly by the peo- ple of their respective counties, of many gov- €rnmental functions hitherto exercised by the crown through its executive aud judicial ap- pointes. Of course this sweeps away the practi- eally despotic power of the petty magistrates, and ‘Will be vigorously opposed by them and by their friends. That is what makes the introduction of ‘Ube bill by a conservative so astonishing. It tssur- mised that Salisbury, tn view of the growing Strength of the Gladstonian party, has resolved upon putting them tntoa trying position. They jmaust either give a tory proposition a vote ©f gpproval by supporting this bill, or they must risk their standing with their own constituents by opposing it. Most of the English Miberals, probably, will feet forced to vote in the aMnuative, in spite of Its offensive source, while tue Scotch Gladstonlans and the Irish home-rulers ‘will nope for its extension at some future day to their respective parts of the kingdom if they can wet it through parliament now. At the same time, Jt is Suspected that Salisbury has no rea: desire Jor its passage, and believes that enough votes ‘will be got together by the tory squire element to Geteat it. He will thus have all the credit of per- anitting its introduction and the political advan- ‘tage of causing @ split in the opposition and of winning back some of the unionists who had begun to stray from bis support. ‘To meet the possibility that the tories cannot stomach the proposed reforms the Salisbury gov- ‘ernment has already announced that it will not consider an adverse vote upon the measure as a declaration of lack of confidence in the govern- ment. Americans will feet a special interest in the fate of this bill, which makes a long stride in ‘the direction of imitating our own institutions. ‘With a change in the local governmental system ‘would be likely to come also a change in the ‘methods of local politics, and the primary and the caucus and the nominating convention, and all ‘the little wheels within the big ones, would be Drought into play there as here, <<< ‘The wide scope of the topics of discussion at the ‘women’s conference, gives unusual interest to the proceedings. The improvement of their political condition Is only one of the matters to be consid- ered, and the attention given to thetr notable ad- ‘vances In other lines of development draws to the city certain representative women, and adds to ‘he audiences a number of hearers who would not be attracted if the crusade had but a single end in ‘view. Nothing that pertains to woman Is foreign to the conference, and this comprehensiveness of plan, involving a review of what has been accom- plished tm all lines of development, gives to the gathering a cheerful and congratulatory tone, Which might be wanting if political conditions were alone discussed. Woman's rights in the mat- ter of education have brought to the city speakers from India, Denmark and Norway, and from widely-separated sections of the United States So the subject of phillanthropies, including prison reform, hospital work, and Work among the In- dians, the great temperance question, the consid- eration of women in the professions and indus- tries and such topics as social purity and woman's Jegal condition nave been the magnets to draw to ‘Washington the workers in the fields suggested, and togive acertain representative character to ‘this congress of women. The organizations to be perfected as the result of the conference promise to be of historical interest. and importance. The great impediment to many movements for the Denefit of the gentler sex as been the apparent indifference of the beneficiaries of the alleged tm- provement. ‘The reformer’s work of proselyting 1s amore necessary among the women than among the men. Outside of the few requests by women Yor a recognition of alleged rights to which valid djection supported by sound argument can be ‘urged,—and these are few indeed,—there 1s prob- ably no benefit which women, acting in organiza- tion and speaking with substanually one voice, can ask which the men will not be quick to be- ‘stow. Professor Hadley, of Yale College, in an after- dinner speech delivered in New York city last night, declared that the remedy for the labor- ‘strike evil must be sought in the prevention of ‘trouble rather than in its cure. Even arbitration, ‘he said, often fails of its desired effect, the decis- jon of the arbitrators being variously interpreted ‘Dy the parties to the controversy and thus giving Tise toa fresh quarrel He suggested the trial of @& new resource—a change in the business methods of corporations. If railroad companies ‘would fill their managerial offices with men who had made a study of human nature rather than ‘with those who had devoted their entire attention tothe artof getting and hoarding dollars, they ‘would have infinitely less difficulty with their sub- ordinates. Such managers would take pains to get acquainted with their working staffs; they ‘Would estabitsh systems of promotion which give every employe a stimulus to perfect himself in his special line of labor for the purpose of secur- tug @ higher place and larger wages, By studying the peculiarities of the men and devising schemes for stirring their ambition they could apply a counter-irritant which would soon undo the !ll-effects of agitation in the labor unions, ‘There is much sound sense in Professor Hadley’s suggestion. Considerate treatment of employes ‘tm the manner suggested has prevented many a labor controversy, and has saved to employer and emp 2yed the cost of many a strike. — Prince Ferdinand of Bulgaria may pot have a ‘Very comfortable throne to sit on for the present, but, with the assistance of so clever a managing mama as Princess Clementine, there 1s no telling ‘What slice of good fortune may yet fall into his Jap. It’s now rumored that the princess's trip to Paris bas & matrimonial purpose behind it. Just ‘Where she expects to find a young woman who combines the necessary requisites of ‘strong iam- ‘ily connections, an abundant fortune, and an ad- ‘Venturous spirit, does not appear; but, if Ferdi- and comes by his indomitable self-assertion ‘through his mother’s blood, it would be folly to prophesy off-hand the failure of her mission, ‘There may besome marriageable daughters left im the Rothschild family, for instance, who, if Bulgaria were erected into a kingdom, would not mind figuring in history as the founder of a Gynasty. The rapidity with which the French courts dis- ‘Dose of a certata class of cases ts at once a rebuke and an example for our own tribunals, It was only a few days ago that Daniel Wilson was convicted 1p @ police court of misdemeanors so serious that ‘the mere suspicion of their existence had con- ‘tributed to change the whole current of French history.

He has condensed the breath, and injected the resulting liquid under the skin of a rabbit, which promptly expired. Those who ride the “better-ventilation” hobby are especially interested in the experiment, and, it ts thought, that kissing, alany rate of (he protracted. long-drawn-out variety, will be discontinued and becume obsviete, a “If it finds that arguments fail, with the daring of youth It may use some more powerful ammunt- ‘Won to drive all opposing forces from the field of battle, and overthrow forever an aristocracy based on sex."—Mrs. Stanton's Address of Welcome.
