WOMEN A3 ORATORS.
It I Chiefly Their Lack of Vole That
Handicaps Their Suceeas.
It ia not everybody who has yet grown
op to the iika thnt tho female orator is
nil essential parr-of the social fabric, anil
yet we have her suddenly with us and
taking tho prizes a way from the sex that
has hitherto enjoyed it practical monop
oly of the oratorical arts and graces. It
Is not worth while to question the pro
priety of woman's apjiearance on the
platform. As a matter of fact she ap
peared there some time ago, but as
speaker, hardly as an orator in the
proper sense. It has been several years
bow since, the sight of a woman as a
public speaker created even a ripple of
emotion. She has been presiding over
and addressing temperance meetings
and club gatherings, she has lectured to
public assemblies, she has made political
stump speeches, she has even preached
sermons all withont arousing excite
ment or serious opposition.
The fact is, women have "arrived'
and the people who are slow to adjust
themselves to the situation are at a dis
advantage. It matters not whether pub
lic speaking is in their "sphere," women
are making public speeches when occa
sion seems to call for them. Conven
tionalities and traditions, authorities
and prejudices are all knocked in the
bead, to be sure. Even St. Paul is dis
credited, but the women go serenely on
and it must be acknowledged that no
serious calamity has yet resulted. If
they want to talk out in meeting they
will talk, and it profits no man to say
them nay. On the contrary there are
several reasons. why they should be en-
conraged to excel, -i--
If woman will address her fellow citi-
tens from the stage or the stump it is
better that she should do it acceptably.
tven toe most ardent friends of ad
vanced woman, those who have kept her
in sight in her rapid progress toward
"emancipation," are obliged to confess
to a frequent wish tht she wouldn't

The next morning Maj. Randolph took
her with Adole in a light cariole over
the ranch. Although his domain was
nearly as large us the adjoining wheat
plain, it was not like that monopolized
by one enormous characteristic yield.
but embraced a more diversified prod
uct There were acres and acres of po
tatoes, in rows of endless and varying
succession. There were miles of, wild
oats and barley, which overtopped them
as they drovw in narrow lanes of dry
and dusty monotony. There were or
chards of pears, apricots, peaches and
nectarines, and vineyards of grapes so
comparatively dwarfed in height that
they scarcely reached to the level of their
eyes, yet kuien and breaking beneath
the weight of their ludicrously dispropor
tionate fruit. V hat seemed to be a vast
green plateau covered with tiny patches.
that headed the northern edge of the
prospect, was an enormous bed of straw
berry plants. But everywhere, crossing
the track, bounding the fields, orchards
and vineyards, intersecting the paths of
the whole domain, were narrow irrigat
ing ducts and channels of running water.
"Those, said the major poetically,
"are the veins and arteries of the ranch.
Come with me now and Til show ion
its pulsating heart." Descending from
the wagon into pedestrian prose again
he led Rose a hundred yards further to
a shed that covered a wonderful artesian
well. In the center of a basin a column
of water rose regularly with the evc-j
flow and volume of a brook. "It fa one
of the largest in the state," said the
major, "and is the life of all that grows
here during six months of the year.
Pleased as the young girl was with
these evidences of the prosperity and
position of her host, she was struck
however, with the fact that the farm
laborers, vine growers, nursery men and
all field bands scattered on the vast
estate were apparently of the same inde
pendent, unpastoral and unprofessional
character as the men of the wheat field.
There were no cottages or farm build
ings that she could see. nor any appar
ent connection between the household
and the estate. Far from suggesting
tenantry or retainers, the men who were
working in the fields glanced at them
as they passed with the indifference of
strangers, or replied to the major's
greetings of questionings with perfect
equality of manner or even businesslike
reserve and caution. Her host explained
that the ranch was worked by a com
pany "on shares:" that those laborers
were in fact the bulk of the company,
and that he. the major, only furnished
the land, the seed and tha implements.
"That man who was driving the long
roller, ana with whom yon were indig
nant because he wouldn't get out of our
way, is the president of the company.
That needn t make him so uncivil,
aid Rose, poutingly, "for if it comes to
that you're- the landlord," she added
triumphantly.
"AO, said the major good humored-
ly, "I am simply the man driving the
lighter and more easily managed team
for pleasure, and he's the man driving
the heavier and more difficult machine
for work. It's for me to get out of his
way. And looked at in the light of my
being the landlord it is still woree, for
as we re working 'on shares Im inter
rupting his work and reducing his prof
its merely because I choose to sacrifice
my own." -.-.
I need not say that those atrociously
leveling sentiments were received by the
young ladies with that feminine scorn
which is only qualified by misconception.
Rose, who nnder the influence of her
oosiess nationality naa a vague im
pression that they sounded something
like the French revolution, and that
Adele must feel like the Princess Eliza
beth, rushed to her relief like a good
girl. "But, major, now you're a gentle
man, and if you had been driving that
roller you know yon would have turned
out for us.
"1 don't know about that," said the
major mischievously, "but if I had
should have known that the other fellow
who accepted it wasn't a gentleman.
But Hose having sufhciently shown
her partisanship in the discussion, after
the feminine fashion, did not care par
ticularly for the logical result.. After a
moment's silence she resumed, "And the
wheat ranch below is that carried on
in the same way?'
"Yes; but their

At the end of two weeks Maj. Ran
dolph received a letter from Mr. Mai
lory. Wlxm lie . had read it ho turned
to his wife, "He thanks you," he said,
"for your kindness to his daughter, and
explains that his sudden departure wus
owing to the necessity of his taking ad
vantage of a great opportunity for spec
ulation that hud offered." As Mrs.
Randolph turned away with a slight
shrug of her shoulders the major con
tinued: "But you haveu't heard all. That
opportunity was tho securing of a half
interest in a Ciunabus lodo in Sonojra,
which has already gone up a hundred
thousand dollars in his bauds. By Jo vol
man can afford to drop a little social
ceremony on those terms, ch, Josephine?"
he concluded with a triumphant chuckle.
He's as likely to lose his hundred

"You're wrong as regards Mallorv,

Major Randolph faced his wife quick

"I should be very loth to give my

of my already thinking of 'such things,'
do you suppose that your friend Mr.

What had Impjicncdt
It had been warm morning. An un
usual mist, which the sun had not dissi
pated, had crept ch from the great grain
fields beyond, and hung around the house
charged with a dry, dusty closeness that
seemed to be quite independent of tho
sun's rays, and more like a heated ex
halation or emanation of the soil itself.
In its acrid irritation Rose thought she
could detect the breath of the wheat as
on the day she had plunged into its
pale green shadows. -
By the afternoon this mist had disap
peared, apparently in the same mysteri
ous manner, but not scattered by the
usual trade wind which another un
usual circumstance that day was not
forthcoming. There was a breathless-
ness in the air like the hu3h of listening
expectancy which filled the young girl
with a vague restlessness, and seemed to
even affect a scattered company of crows
in tho field beyond the house which rose
suddenly with startled but aimless wings
and then dropped vacantly among the
grain again. ,

tant part of the ranch, Mrs. Randolph

and Rose was sitting between Adele and

room, listlessly turning over the leaves of
some music There had been an odd
mingling of eagerness and abstraction in
the usual attentions of the young man
that morning, and a certain nervous af

ends of a small black mustache which
resembled his mother's eyebrows, that

Where an article Is advertised In mag

sands of people, sales will most assured
ly be effected ; but they will be far more
limited than they would be were the
same amount of monev that ia spent
with the magazines placed with the home
papers ol tie consumer. The bulky
pages of magazines are seldom carefully
scanned; whereas, with even mammoth
metropolitan $nm!av papers the adver
tisements are all more or less read be-
canse ol their being so easily seen, and
Because of the ract that inanr of tbem
are on pages with reading matter.
As a rule the advertising pages of mag
azines arc not interspersed with reading
matter. This is all the better for the
subscriber; but, alas I it Is not quite so
consoling to the advertiser. For even the
largest local general dealers to cultivate
the pages of msgszi nes seems a daring and
hazardous experiment. Ibe circulation
is over tne entire union, and there are
not sufficient near-by consumers to rec
ompense the expense for readers away
beyond the confines of the dealers' trade
territory.
What good woold it do the largest dry-
gooos house on the Coast to advertise in
the magazine with the largest circu
lation in the United States? It is con
ceded that some benefit would be certain
to accrue therefrom, but It would not be
sufficient to warrant the outlav. while
the same amount in any home newspa
per would return a handsome profit.
A STBIKINO IXAMPLI.
The influence of local advertising and
soliciting trade through the home papers
of consumers was shown in a remarkable
manner on oundav. December 4. 18S3.
when the New York Sunday Recorder
printed ten more column of advertise
ments than the wonderful New York
Sunday World of the same day. The
Sundav World has almost three times
the circulation of the Recorder, but its
circulation is national, its main territorv
) oeing an tne Atlantic states; whereas,
, the Recorder is more or less restricted in
, Its circulation to New York city and im
, mediate vicinity. New York dealers
rely largelv upon trade at home, and
therefore they displayed their wares in
a home paper.
This principle is recognized bv all the
large advertisers and by the leading ad
vertising agencies in a peculiarly strik
, ing manner. The smaller the circulation
I of a paper the higher proportionate rate
, i allowed it. The reason is that because
, the smaller the circulation the morecer-
tain it is to he confined to home. It will
cover its immediate territory more thor
oughly than a paper with a larger clrcn
i 1 at ion, reaching bevond the trade limits
of the dealers at the point of publica
tion.
A BKASONABLS ILICSTBATIOX,
Take a metropolitan dailv that has,
say, eeveral hundred circulation in this
place. Would it not pay any dry-goods
dealer or jeweler of the big city better
were that several hnndred circulated in
and near the point of publication? That
is not a conundrum ; its answer is self,
evident, and is carried on the verv far
of the proposition. Now, take an article
that is of more or less general sale, and
is also advertised here; does the the ad
vertisement of that article in the several
hundred copies of the metropolitan pa
per, circulating here, benefit the adver
tiser any or one-tenth as much as it
would were those copies taken In the
none territory.
Experience is nsnally the correct ex
ponent of true theory, and the experi
ence that advertising in one's home pa
per is the cheapest and best wav to se
cure his patronage has produced the
nieory 01 advertisers that higher
prices pr rata lor local circulation are
meaner than lower prices pro rata for
larger circulation that goes beyond the
vern ury 01 me nome (leaiere.
The conntrv weekly with BOO rtrmTa.
tion covers Its territory more thoroughly
aim in iirupomunaiHiy a iar more valu-
anie advertising medium than the metro
politan daily or the great magazine, each
with man thousands of general extra-
rcrriiunai nrcn'aiion.
The metropolitan dailies may enunci
ate me proper pnhlio policies, hut it is
tne country weeklies that deliver the
true political gospel to the vast voting
masses. Eminent political leaders may
give the note of the campaign, but it is
the country district workers that carry
the election. Mammoth circulations
may spread broadcast the fame of some
article, but it is the home paper that is
read every day of everv week that event
ually and surely percolates into the un
heeding minds of its readers the merits
of that article. A column report of our
Senator's speech in 800,000 copies of
the New York World would not do hi mas
much good as a half column of it in the
gaper of smallest circulation in this
tate.
The issue has been loined. and shrewd
advertisers are deciding in favor of the
papers that have local circulation in
city, town, and remote 'country village,
especially in such papers as lis ia their
trade territory.
