MISS KROUT INTERVIEWED.
She Eulightou8 the Bostonians as to Oliicaeo Ladies and Western Journalism, Miss Mary 11. Krout was in .Boston r-centlv and created quite a furore in that center of culture. Tho leading papers give her lengthy notices and the Boston
Kiuhji'l.
the great society jour
nal, contains a lengthy interview witli Miss Krout which we partially reproduce. It will prove intorestinir reading to Miss Krout's many friends here, and in fact to everybody. The interview is as follows:
Miss Mary H. Krout, of C-lm-.igo, a journalist who ably sustains a leading position on tho
Inter-Ocetut
Huthjel
has had the
good fortune to phonograph it for the many. Among tho many brilliant young women in journalism, Miss Krout holds distinctive rank and place. She has the wisdom, to paraphrase Dr. Holmes, to select good ancestors, and grow up in an atmosphere electric with intellectual energy n. 0 vho good breeding of refined and studious people, to whom books and thought and progress were tho essentials of life. All those influences have their outgrowth in character and Miss Krout, with her intellectual force, her keen discrimination, her swift, reiwnsive sympathy,—genial and sympathetic ot manner, refined and dainty in personality and tasteful attire,—well illustrates that the early atmosphere of fine thought enters into character,molding and determining it. Miss Krout's father was a Kentuckian, a man of the highest culture. His mother's people were Scotch-Irish, and settled in Covington, Ky., 17S5, tho family still holding thoir original possessions thero, the house built bv her great-great-grand-father and tho ground surrounding it.
Her mother was a woman of liberal culture and brilliant intellect. Mrs. Krout was a daughter of Prof, liyland T. Brown, one of tho earliest abolitionists in tho West, and one of the first advocates of equal suffrage, lie was for many years professor of natural science in Butler University, Indianapolis, and lectured on chemistry in the State Mod ical College. During the administration of President Hayes he was chemist-in-chiof in the Agricultural Department in Washington. Admiral George Bro-.vn, who was at one time in command of the navy yard here, now in command of thtri Pacific squadron, is her cousin. Miss Krout was educated by her parents, and her literary proclivities early took form in verse-writing. One of her lyrics. '•Little Brown Hands,'' was accepted by Miss Lucy Larcom when she edited "Our Young Folks," and the poem is found now in ina.-.y of our school readers. From the age of twelve the Jitt'o maiden was absorbed with her pen, and writing, which is now her profession, was entered upon as her recreation, her special enjoyment. "Where did you do your first editorial work?"' Miss Krout was aked. to which she replied: "My first editorial work was on tho Crawfordsvillo (Indiana) Joitunai., whore I have always lived. I. then was the leading editorial writer ou the Terro Haute
E.rpress
a Republi
can morning daily. It was during President Harrison's candidacy for tho Senate, and at that timo I became familiar with all the intricacies of Indiana politics. In 1888 I went to Chicago, taking letters from Gen. Low Wallace and Mrs. Wallace, who have been close friends, always, and at once secured a position on tho
1 iiler-Occuit.
After the
National Convention I was sent to Indianajiolis, where I remained as the political correspondent of the paper for eight mouths. Tho work involved the discussion ot all issues of the campaign from every poSBib.e point of view. It was difficult and responsible. I sent my paper a column daily, with the exception of Sunday, for fivo months, and frequent numerous short telegrams." "And what did the political authori ties think of a woman's concoctions from the political caldron?" "I do not think that the State Central Committee put much credence in the belief that a woman cannot keep a secret," she replied,"' for I had their entire confidence, and thoy assisted me in every pos-iblo way. After tho election the State officials sent to my paper a very kind letter of commendation and thanks for the work I had done. I am now on the editorial staff of the
Jnter-Oceun,
and have what I eonsidor an ideal posi -tion. Although newspaper work is exacting, laborious Bnd,fatiguing, its re wards are in inverse ratio to its requirements, and it is tho one profession abovo all others in which thero is no royal road to fortune." "Thnt is true, indeed and it is also true that no journalistic writing, worthy the name, can bo save from the writer who is not only educated and cultivated, but who is gifted by nature with the literary nrt. To hear tho crude persons
speak of 'going into' journalism, as if it were a trade, determines the mental calibre ot such a person at once. But a
nos iiioiitoii.i.
What do you find in
that wonderful Chicago, Miss Krout? Do enlighten tho Bostonian mind." "You must know," laughingly replie tho slender, blonde, vivacious young lady, "that we who live thoro resent the popular impression that tho board ot trade and the stock yards aro tho dominant influence in Chicago.. On tho contrary, it. has more college graduates to the square mile than any city in the country. It has a number of wealthy young men who have had al! tho advantages of university training, ami aro interesting themselves in tho public welfare to an extent that I have never heard ot elsowhore. "And what of tho women's clubs? What are they doing? "I think that with all this intellectual interest we have the ideal club Tor womon—The Chicago Women's Club.
D~PRI6E'S
It is a power socially, jxiliticnlly and educationally. It- has now a membership of over fiOO, and it is ii pure democracy of brains. It is a body of representative women, those prominent iu society, in the professions, writers, artists, lawyers, author.s physicians and journalists." "And the Prese League, Miss Kront. of which vou are president. Whi't oi thnt?" •This league," she replied, "is ft national organization of womeu journalists. Its headquarters are for the presell'
'.ti
of thnt city,
has recently visited Uoston, and was a guest at the Brunswick last week. Her sparkling conversation regarding the social life and tendencies of Chicago was too interesting to be limited to an audieuce of one, and the
Chicago, and tho officers are-
Chicago women. But this arrangement will exist only until after tho Exposition. Tin re is a reason for it. The Chicago members have agreed to constitute themselves a committee of entertainment and the league will bo also a bureau of information lor visiting women journalists who may be sent to the Kxpositiyn. Oiii- proposed plan has boon purely a helpful one. and wo have no desire or intention of monopolizing the honors. Tho Eastern women have a mistaken idea of our purpose—thinking it exclusively a Chicago organization. We have representatives—vice-presi-dents, in reality—appointed and serving in nearly all tho Western and Eastern States. Tho Auditorium Hotel has generously given us a clubrooin, and placed itn bountiful parlors at our disposal for our first public meeting. "Does the League hold any official relation to the Board of Lady Mima-
"In this connection I may «iy that, while wo are working for tho Board of Lady Managers lor the Columbian Exposition, and aro wholly in sympathy with it, wo will preserve our independence as a league. An impression, somehow, has gono abroad that an Eastern organization has boon officially recognized by the board and its president, Mrs. Palmer, but this is an error. While overy aid and courtesy will bo extended to the women of the press, collectively and individually, there will be absolute impartiality shown to all. Mrs, Palmer is too wise and just a women tc^discriminations of any sort. know her personally and officially and speak from personal knowledge."
To return to my original proposition. I think I have shown you that Chicago is doing a great deal in the cause of education and philanthropy, its spirit of liberality is as magnificent as its progress is marvellous. The entire population does not bow down in a blind, unreasoning worship of bigness ind money. The 17-story building is leplorable, a sin against State and vgiene, but like any other evil it will inevitably bring its own corrective. In gard to money, I know of no city where wealth alone and unaided will do little to •supply intellectual, and. more than tins, moral deficienees." ... ......
