L' ok for the woman" is an old French , proverb, which implies that uollilng happens in this world either tragedy or couoedy In which one of the gentler sex is not involved. Dispatches rom Topekt represent that, there is trouble among the Pcpuliels and Demo crats in Kansas, all on account of woman; ' It Is alleged (hat Ihe Populists want the ladles to lake au active part in the campaign, whilo the Democrats do not desire the women to hs a promi nent factor in lliu fight. The two par ties hold such divergent views on this momentous subject that already, it ia aaid, strained relations exist, and each party has established separate headquar ters, aeventy mile apart. There Leeras to be no good reason why cither Demo crats or Populists should not utilize the services of the ladies In the battle against imperialism. It would be folly for the D.'iwx rais lo decline assistance from uny reputable source. If the) adopt an altitude of antagonism to the wouku of thd State they may not only suffer politically, hut may find "rebell ion" rampant hi their own households when tho sex Issue is iigliultil. If Kansas women are anything like their sUlers lu I lie r:i: il uculd he eas) to keep them om of politics wiihoul hurling their pildu or assuming a dicta torial attitude. All that la necessan would be lo provide i.r.lforms which are not Incoming and bonnets which are ilmply frightful. No hasten) woman ould dou such parapln i iihIik, not even to become fattious as a campaign orator and orgauixer. The women of Kausaa may bo gnpcriur iruatuim, and not slaves lo gown and.bonuet, luil this is lo be doubted. The Democrats cf that ii ate would bo wio lo try Ihe ex peri menl before they break away from their Populist allies because of tlie political activity of the Populist women. If title plan doesn't work satisfactorily a few mice judiciously distributed at political meetings mii;bt discourage activity on the part of the ladles. It la always well to try a little strategy with tho gentle sex before adopting the "lord of crea tion" tone. Many a man would have more hair on his head today If he had applied the wisdom of the serpent lo hi domestic problems, aud not asserted his supremacy too noisily and arrogantly.
