This has been woman's week in Engliah poli

ings of the Priinrtjao League and the Liberal
Fcderation, and the evidcnce afforded of tbo
gn.Aving iniiuence of the nex in political catn
paigning. Over 100.000 women areenlistcd in
tho active work <?f theso two organizations, and
the movement i? stcadily giowing in jx-pularitv
without any signs of the dcvolopnpmt of woman -
?uffrage p'ropaganda. Kithcr Lord Handulph
ChUKhill or his American Avife is entitled to tho
ciedit of originatiug this iiovul eleclioneoring

ASOTHER QOOU MAS (WSE WROKO.
One of tho tnoRt inexplicahle ihings in this
mortal life is the aabv in AAhich a ptiblie man who
is primaiily a ootiticiaa c.nnes to regard
an offlcfl 11* wbicb the people of this great city
havo elected him. Here. for instanoe, avo havo
a yoiiiig, ainhitious. fairly intoUigenl and per
sonally honest, uprigh* aml indiistrioua Mayor.
who must lie asMimod to look upon his own ad
miiiis,i.tlii>n as a meatia rather than an ond.
There is no ItaHtin whahsoever to 8-ppOM tbat
Mr. Oiant has satisliod hi* desire for fame. Ho
is siifliciently endi.xvod with this world'a good*
to be compBraUvely indifferent to further ar
rniisitions. He has tasud the ? up of politii al
piefeimcnt. and nobody has ever heard him aay
tliat he dislikcs it. llt' has befi.re him the ex
aniplo of a man who began hi* public careor as
a shorilT and who becaine in the course of a few
daz/ling years a Mayor. a Governor and a Tre*i
dent. Two of these steps he has alnady t.ik.-n.
The thiid was noi beyond the tield of his par
donable h?.pe. and having lavken that. nobottj
m entitled to ?y that he migbl no. bave a hiovc.i
the fottlih in diie tima Few men in our day
have enteied upon a more cngaging firld ? * ac
tivity than tbe e.xccllent y.niiig penoi who 008
preaidea over this muuicipality.
We have n?>t the slighte-*t doubt tbat when
Mr. Grant peotnulgated (ho admirably lurid
doaiment in wbicb be laid ilmvnj tho
cotirae wbicb he thunghi a Mayor of New?
York might to piirsue, h?- thonght that he ueant
eveiy word that aa_.s ptibl.*bed over hia naine
Ue know?wh.i doOB not know??that this im
l>erial city offers ti. its < hief magistrato a careor
of noble tt_efulneaa and distini tinn. lt is not
too inurh to say that a man who had risen to the
full ineaaiire of tbat opportimity would bejone
uf the BBaxI notal.le nien in ibe country. In
?hat single sphere be would havo achiovekl a
degtee of fame suflicicnt t.. aatiafy any uiiselti?*h
ambition. bm it tiie aame finio he might re*t
a**siired that further hi.nois awaited him wben
ever be was willing to accept them. Mayor (irani
is not lacking in raparlty In uiidarataad a plain
piopositiun wben it is preaented to his mind in
simple outHnea He was under tho improasii.n
thut he intendcd to be an ideal Mayor. to give
this netropolifl a government of which it might
be bonestly proiid. He ha*. eat?l ns much, not
only in the formal languaKe of a candidate and
an execiitive, but in unreslrain-d and fauiihai
conversation with petaoBBl fricnds.
The troiible xvith Mayor (Jnuit and Avith al!
Diunkipal ofli.eis nbo. like him. are tbe ?rea
tion of an oligaithy, ia ihat they are inrapaci
tated by the ciwuiUflUoce* of their politiral ex
i.st?'nce for aeeing things jn their ttue K'lationfl.
During all the year* of bls gradual adtance
meut he has been tiained to reBard a part as
great*r tlian the. tvhole. He haa piatballv
knoAA-n nonvenne of preferment tthich did not,
begin and end in TamuBtny llall. II* has i*
casimially talkcd like a man of large views. be?
fore whom new botizona were opening fr.mi
year to year, but in reslity bis snn alwaya r.*.**
and set ii. rourtt?ntb-at.. and be ha* uncoii
Bfiuttaly acquired a dlatate f<*i exploratjon.
When he h:i? talked about diarnvering new wayfl
Of BBTVing the people nf ihis.ity and leading us
into i>aths uf praif alid pleasantness, he ha**
been nierel.v imitating tbe siho.'lboy Avho gllbly
botrndfl a oontinent wbk'b bas no cxiau-nre for
him outside the cvers of bis atlas.
The Mayor is a grievotia disapix.intment. He
began so well tbat we l an sA-airely r*'idire that
h<- has alnady reacbed his lunit. But nftor
all he is inerely tbe latest in a long atirf4?aaiiin of
failun's io grasp the rhaiMC whlrh is constanflv
uffert'd to ih<- Mayor of Ntnr-York. His op
p4 itunity was greatet tiian anv of his predo
(*essots had enjoyed. and be ahowed Bunw t'arly
signa of comi>rehending it. llut he. has delil'.'r
ately ch- aen to follow in the footstepa of tbe m;t

THE TBOBLEU FOB TBMPEBAHCB MF.X
Iu Statpa where tho temperanre caiuc Hart
l.oon heaton l>y the VOtea <>f 'irofcssod t-emp<'r
ance men tbrmaelvea, a* in New-Jorhoy, it h??
(oiiM-.s a perplextag qoeatlon whal to dn. If it,
wcre a naked qiKMion of light. there would 1><'
no dinVulty. But tho legislation whi.-h tho
largo majority of tho friendfl of tomi*'ranoe in
New-Jeraey jndged the best pnuti.aUo. has
boen uvortunic-d. and the rcpeal is not the le*s
tho dMiberate a.-t uf th*- people, thoogh it was
mado pi^sible bj tho waated roteB of the fol
lowera of (.'-ncral Fislc. who n?.w percelve that
they wero us.-d an a ratapaw bt Hqnor dealera.
Th. ordinary jM.liti. i:m. who lil.es to dodgo
rtiggfd is.iics. ran Bow say with truth : " Hy
olecting a Democratic Legislaturo. pledged to
repoal tho Uptioa-LiceaiH law, th<- people havo
iWided ngainst that law. Tho rep.-al is th.ir
act. Kotbiag betterispoaaible. Tbarefure tbe
proper coutae i* to reaolre that tho whole quea
tion shnll hc left hereafter to the p<*(.p!o of tbe
*overal towaabipa. and that no party action
shali I.e taken on it in State LeRislaturea ..rcon
vontions. nor -hall party candidatea ho per
rnitu-d to pJedge thenu*. .ve? for or agalnst any
legislation whatever on tho liquor qtirmtion."
That Is a logical po.itii.n. and it ha? tho nicrit
of putting tho ro?p? nuib.Iity exartly where it be
longs. upon the so-call< d temperance men who
refiiacd to uphold wise legislation. But it i*
iievertheleBB an unbenahle l.ecatise imprarticahlo
poaition. Candidates will inovitably be noml
nated who favor thi* or that meastire. and will
ine.vitar.ly answer one way ?r the other quea.
tion* which votora are sure to put to -hetn. Hu?
it ia not the buaineaa of any frienda of tempor
BDCe to throw away an opportunity to do good.
Tbe folly of tbone who per*i*t<?d in putting
Prohibttlon candidatea in the lield, though it
wbb evident that inBtrnmentH of tho aaloon*
would thereby be elected, is not to hc imitated
by men who jostly oeiisure it. The repeal of
tbe law mipht be aooepted as final by the f ilends
of temparanoe if tbere were an honeet oonvic
tion tbat a B_8jari-> ctf tbe people pveterred De*
mocracy and free Hquor. But there is the best
pnasible rca.son for believing that thosc who
wasted votea for Prohibition candidatea did not
knr.w what they were doing. and did not inean
to favor the party nt t*16 mlhBmm nr the polfcry
of the saloons against a practical step in the di
rei-tion of tompemnce.
So reasoning, many sinrero frionds of tcmpor
anco are dispo-ed lo say: "Tho mon who ?e
rured the repeal of the Option-I.icen*o law must
boar the reaponsibility. Our skirtx an. clean,
and we must stand by that meastire as the besl
yet dovised. If it ran be impmved in tho light
of e_.porienoc. good. Hut in essentials it e.x
pre?r*es the will of the truo friends of bompor
anco, and we a*k all who want lt rostorod to tho
xtatuto bookfl to Jnin us. Again. and if noed be
man; timea igaia. Ict tho i-wuo be mado clear
betweea th.r*e who pre/er the be.*: ottainahl..
men<iire and thoxo who prefer tho party of the
sakH ns." This wlll not soom shrowd to tho
pulitician. Hut no army marches baekward
with mueh suceesfl. llaving dofinitoly r.nn
mittod themvolro* to the measuro adi.ptod last
year. baving found that it was ?ccomptishiag all
they expeeted from it. the roal frieada of tem
peranre cannot if they would. and wt.uld not if
thoy could. excape full rosp.msilnlity for thoir
act. lf it waa wise and good then. the recent
(ondtiet of profosaod frionds of temperanco does
not make it loss wise. They will nol be ablfl to
deny, if asked. as candidatos will be. that they
think tho measure one whi.h ought to be ro
onactod. It is a qnestion whother tbey can do
bottor than to avow formally and publicly their
intent to restore the act if the people givo them

COLLEQR OVTRAORS.
Piesident Rartlett, of Dartiiv.iith College, is
unmcoaaarily BOvere in hi<* Btrlfttirea upon th<>
code of honor atii?.ng atudenta Taking as a
text the tx-4-enl des.xratinn <<f Ibe statne nf
I'rofexaor Silliman at Yale. he preachefl ? vig
orous aermon in "The fndependantn again<t

ia BOl satislii-d xxith the rewolutionfl of the Yala
stndvnts rondemning thi* nutrage as " an a<t uf
the most drapkahk* vandalism'' He ronaidera
tbat they ought to ha\e pledged their beat <-n
dcavora to have the guiity in^n arnvst...I nnd
puniahed. This. h<- avera, is what college atu
dents invariably refuso to iK Thej know who
are the offenders in every t. .trtii,'". blll rombinc
to Bcreen their fellowa frotn the legitimatn <"ii
aeijuencea of follies. riocfl and misdeim-anor*.
They aro iutluenied. in his jiidgnient. by ?
falac c*de of honor, and conspire Avirh tho
Avrongdoora to baflle the college faculties and tu
defeat tbe ends of pttblir decorum and order.
Tbis sweeping indh-tment against atudonts
ia not justified cither by the case in point or by
the general tendenciea of college Opiaion and
moiality. The drunken i-evellers wbo dis
gracrd. themselves and their college by their
senseless de?*ecration of fhe statun were un
known to the great body of students who
missed the resolutions. It was not ihe biisiness
,,f those studenta to bocome privato dotortiA'Os
and to engage in a atill hunt for the offenderB.
Thry performed their duty when thoy da
nounced the vandalism in good. vigorous Eng
lish. Il was the privilege ()f the college ait
thotltie* to errrpley detectivoa for secret service
in the dormitoriest and this is the proper
ooiirac to be taken in aueh caaes. With few
excemtiona the offeodern in coliege brawls and
rrutragea are not known to the maaa of the
fltndenta. SuaDicion mar be dlrected againat
a few men, but direot evidence is lacking.
Those who are Implicated do not go about
oollcge bragging of their exploit and soLici-ing
avmr-athy. They avoid meeting their confed
p'rates, and have n? littlo an poaaible to say
about the affair. They are ailent boeause they
aro afraid of being found out. Ordinarily. there
is neither comblaatfoa nor conspiracy on tho
part of fellow-etudonU to ahiold wroiigdoora.
Thoro is -imply a fatck of detinite information
and a natnral and comniondable roluctance to
play tho ifooble part of informer and spy.
College disciplinariann lay pltogethor too
mueh stress upon this sooBllod code of honor.
In a largo coninitinity of studont* thoro aro
certain to bo a few dissiputed. rocklen*. and law
lc4? men, who will oecasioiially bo guilty of
rxceeeaa and out-rage*.. latctead of depending
upon the Btudente to htint dowa and cxpom tbe
offendera tho college BUthnritiea ought to eall
to their aid profe?flrional deteetives, who ca_i
do tha work akilfully and sncccasftdly and bo
well compenaatad for it. If this wero the
ordinary practice of university facultie.s, a
strong deberrent influence would bo oxeroisod
in preventing rarioufl kiada of college ruftian
iam aud crinic. Thoro is no roason why a stu
dont who violate* municipal or town law should
n..t bo arrnigned in tho court* and proseeuted
aa an ordinary offendor; nor can thoro bo any
valid objection to the eniployment of skilled
detectivea in following up olews and forreting
..ui tho guilty. Cortainly thoro would be fewer
college outrage* if tbe studenU themselves
were aware that detectivea would bo put on
their tiack whenever nusdemcanora were com
mitteda
Neaily all college prcaidenks dislike to havo
