The queer things that she has accomplished are ilius- trated in the curious fact that the best live-stock reporter in this country is a young lady. There is no doubt that her competi- tion is giving man a close race. Thou- sanas of young men loaf around the Btreet corners and complain of notbeing "0 to got situations; but while they loaf the young women secure the places, do the wor w the B And it is not only in subordinate tions that women accomplish gooc sults.

The complete list of women in this country who have made themselves rich would cause nine men out of ten to open their eves wide in astonishment, A Woman's Reason. New York Commercial Advertiser: Gradually the philosophy of the fomale suffragists. 0 the mind of man it has scemed w strange thing that vely woman, with all her love of Jux- nd refinement,should yearn for the privilege of voti aud holding oftice, With all the hardships and disagreeable associations implied thereby. To the masculine intelleet it seems that ds hardly adequate compensation,rating woman’s sentimentality at her own val- uation, in the mere privilege th anale suffragists ask for what they obliged to give in return. = But Miss Nellie Luc Refeated candidate for school commis- sioner in W ¢ county, has thrown me light on this subject. In a burst f frankness Miss Cooke opened | muind to a reporter and confided to him ghe moral and sentimental, debit .uul credit, of the canvas: Suid sh Hie ad 5ot my heart on beating those old publican politicians and boing New ork’s first lady school commissioner, nd now that it is all against me cannot help fecling about it.

Was Miss Cooke’s purpose in thus entering the canvas no higher than the mere satisfaction of beating those old repub- lican mossbacks of \\'lnn county? And do women always make sorry work of lities? Is the novelty and vanity of ing the first woman to achieve a cer- tain position the paramount advantage to be guined by her election? Alas thut Mrs. Lillie Devereaux Blake did not have this candidate in training to point one of her only lofty morals with. O1d Fashioned View of Women, Elizabeth Stuart Phelps: Mucl as has been said of the equality of the sexes, und great as is the indignation of some of us at being considered the Hweaker sex,” [ am afraid that abso- lute equality between men and women is impossible.

All members of the school committee women, fourteen teache ers are women, and cven the printer the report is of the same sex, although she aftixes **hook and _job printer” to her name. In the midst of this edu tional garden of women and girls, ther appeared only two men, each of whom tanght through a winter term,and then , probably ov me by the lonesomeness of their tion, departed to more mixed conditions. Tt is satisfactory to learn that the schools under the com- » form of “‘petticont government™ mve given good satisfaction to the committee during the past year. The report says: The teache ve been thorough and carnest in their work, as the interest manifested by the pupils and the pr s made in their studies plainly indic ) The' Charlemont report that women in education are also con- servative, for the salaries paid to the two men who st od into the school for winte ‘hing are larger than any o en to the women ng $114, while the ]n;:l\ st sulary paid to a woman for teaching during the same term is $72. Whether the man’s serviees were in- trinsically more valuable than the woman’s, or whether he was more suc- sful in resisting the p ure of his mployers for low wages, or whether he profited by the smaller competition among men than among women for a school position at Charlemont, cannot be determined until the question of women's wages in politieal economy shall have becen satisfuctorily answered.
