Sein SERB 80R0818 AND OTHER ASSOOIATIO} To-day the International Council of Women Was told by distinguished women what the power of organization is, how women have organized, and what such organizations are doing. It 1s no wonder if the fifteen hundred or more women who heard these addresses got it into their heads that ‘Women could run the world if they chose without the. ald of man. What the ultimate results ot this International Council! may be 1s & matter of conjecture—conjecture filled with dread, perhaps, for man; but one can fancy he sees some of the immediate results in the troops of women, young and old, who flock to the opera house every day. And even the young lady promenaders on Pennsylvania ave- Bue seem to have been infected by the spirit of in- dependence, ‘They carry their arms @ little more aklinbo, and their unbrellas are swung with the vigor of a new inspiration, The council seems to have braced the young women up in a wonderful degree and made them realize that women do amount to something after all, They have before them every day examples of ‘WOMEN WHO HAVE DARED, AND WHO HAVE ACHIEVED, ‘So, very naturally they tlt their b: ) one side, and perhaps swagger just a little bit. There are evidences also of the process of evolution in many noses that used to be quite straigut. Now they seem to be getting a piquant, upward turn, as it contempt for the tyrant. man’ Was working itself out into physical expression. What wil this Dodes, whether the evolution pictured by Mrs. Stanton, with barricaded streets guarded by ‘red-capped Women or a peaceititarbitra- on and final emancipation of women only Those blessed with prophetic powers can venture Yo say. It is very certain that the men who at- tend the meetings of the council are meek enough. Tney look, most of them, as though they were. ready vanquished, ‘They follow the independent looking ladles with a respectful air of submission, ‘They do not look as though they contemplated re— sistance. Mrs, Matilda Joslyn Gage, presided at this moruing’s session. Mrs, Gage 1s a vice-president- at-large of the National | Woman’s Suffrage Asso- ciation. Her spare figure was clad in black, but a huge crimson fan she car- ried and her pale face and \ white hair made quite a ! striking contrast of col- ors. Shespeaksdistinctiy and with the ease of an experienced orator. Mrs, Isabella Beecher Hooker offered the open- Ing pra Then, as a compliment vo Mrs. Howe, attle Hymn of the Republic” was sung. Miss Anthony read a cable dispatch trom Eng- land saying: “Follow Joan Bright's yesterday Birmingham keynote; proclaim Anglo-American, higher confederation.” “she read also telegrams, and letters of yreeting from the women physicians Of San Francisco, Robert P. Porter, Harriet Stan. ton Blatch, and Henrietta Muller. MRS, GAGE ON ORGANIZATION Mrs. Gage said the subject to be spoken of this morning was organizauon, which had so much ef- fect on the affairs of the world. Women's work had not been organized to any extent until the ‘ae Woman Suffrage Association had never neither aspires to lead nor asks to be led. This 1s a deliberative whose function is very impor- ant, int With deliberation between the amoition of the few and the passion of the many. Mrs, Howe dwelt upon the importance of the work Which is done within a smaller compass—the home, she neigh ‘he local associations. In con- clusion she gave some attention to the heredity of Sneantzatious, and Cwelt upon the momentous tm terest Crganizations which coming genera- ‘ons would inherit from our own, MRS. MARY P, EASTMAN, Mrs, Howe's colleague, from the Assoctation for the Advancement of Women, was next introduced. Mrs, Eastman fs a lady of commanding figure, Her hair is tron-gray, and waves about her head in a mani ing to her Tace, Tose, mouth and.chin expressive of character. Sbe Wore :biack silk. Mrs. Eastman spoke also of organization, She spoke without notes, and well- rounded sentences roiled out of her mouth with an astonishing ease. They had come, she said, to re gard humasity as one great solidarity. ‘She spoke of the multiplication of organizations in many forms. Orzanizations have — become - most a thing of nh She de scribed a ttle club formed by children in imitation Of their mothers. They called it tue J. A. R. Club. When they compieted thelr organiza- tion they did not know what todo with it. The President and secretary decided that the funds should be devoted to What was most agreeable to ‘them, and that they was horse-car riding, ‘so they expended their money tn that way. Tue result Was that When the club met it justified its name. The mothersentered the club and dis- Solved the organization, She elaborated to some length upon THE ADVANTAGES OF ORGANIZATION. ‘They were engaged, she said, in making a mosaic. ‘They were ail building, but they were building only one picture. Organtzation taught them hu- mility; taugh¢ them tat they were but part and not the whole. Tt taught them a sense of the Umit of personal right—tae line where ope could not intrude upon abother. No individual ought to bear the Intrusiveness of another, In the nome, she thought, they failed aitogetger toget tis training, The relations tne prevailing: Prevented tuls In the family, too, there Were the "relations of supertority and inferiority, The husband stood in the relation of legalized mastery. Sue thought they nursed this training in the family, too, because in so small a Sphere, Wuere each was dependent upon the other, ‘the individual charactertsiics of our, perieps, be- came overmastering. Nothing in the world was 80 adVaniageous to thei as the necessity of meet~ ing people as their peers, neither dominating the otner, each with his sacred right. The organiza- Uon gave them exactly that. Nothts ye siti, had ever so keenly developed the power of self eriticisin as organization. ‘The next paper announced on the program was by the Baroness Gripenberg, of Finland, who was to speak of Fiuntsu women. Miss Anthony anpouncedithat the Baroness Gripenberg was unable to speak, betag confined at her hotel by an affection of ine Unroai. In Huroness Gripenverg’s place Mrs Gage intro duced Rev. Amanda Deyo, of ‘THE UNIVERSAL PRACE UNION, She told of-the movement which had given rise to the organization of the Peace Union. The society had, she said, twenty-five branch societies in the United States, Mrs. Deyo said that they felt that one of the causes of War Was Injustice. Hence she did not know of an advocate Of their mayement Who was not in favor of absolute equality, ‘Their peace meant no easy, feather-bed, rockitig-chair sort of existence—that all they would have to say wes .” Lucretia Mott Wasa Wonan who teared nothing; Susan B. Anthony, her sister, Did any one put them down as latking bravery?) Though they never cast a ballot those two women, wila Wendeil Phillips, did more to shape American politics than any other two persous. Mrs. Deyo told Of the work of the peace societies, tcaching the beauties of arvitpation; niuking’ & public senument that would be behind Use Government, EDUCATIONAL AND INDUSTRIAL UNIONS. Abby Morton Diaz, presdent of the Women’s Educational and Industrial Union, or Boston, Women, they found, organized less formaterial tn- terests and more as the represen iatives of the pr gressive spirit of humanity. Th Organized in the interest of literature and tn re- | forms touching the weifare of all humawity. On the platform, she Said, there were represented ino Than a million of Women. The club existed, at first, because Of a single interest. ‘Then’ the suilfage Women found tuemselves becoming in- Lerested 1a temperance, the temperance Woman ia suffrage, 4c.
