No Offices for Women.

President Harrison has shown what ooarse material he is made of in his treatment of women, for whom it is plain he has not the usual amount of respect. He hag recently ordered the dismissal of three lady clerks from the office of the Collector Of Internal Revenue in this city for no other reason except that their places may be given to men and to political heelers and jobbers. These ladies were appointed years ago by the Republicans, and were kept in office by the chivalrous instinots of the Democrats. They have also become experts in their duties. But the mandate of our devout President now is that they must go. Not only so, but when the ladies of the Woman’s (lub went to Washington for «n interview with the President, he heard them in silence, intimated that he was bored, and dismissed them without saying a word. if Mr. Harrison thinks that these removals will help his partv in this oity he is dreadfully fooled. Things have gone too far here for that. The Pres dent may than khis st >rs and “the Lord” if the whole State of Illinois does not -go Democratio next fall when Gen. Palmer leads the party. —Chicago Herald.
