The annual meHnngp of tbe type prcpnretl by (Irniit tititl Hnes has gene out of fashion. Hoespvelt delivered himself of long homilies. If he referred te tbe reports vf tbe cabinet ellifers, it was te urge Congress In most emphiitle language te adept their recom mendations. President Wilsen's first address te Con gress, delivered at the opening of the speelal session in April, l'.ll.'t, was devoted cxelti slvely te the mibjeet of the tariff. lie lit titiked the pellej of protection as It wns applied and demanded that we abolish every thing that bore the spinblanee of privilege "and put our business men and producers tinder tbe stimulation of a constant nt ssity le be efficient, eeoiieiiiienl and enterpiislng, musters of cuiiipetltlve siipreliiae.v , better vveikers and inerelimits than any in the world." The nddress recalled Cleveland's precedent-breaking pronouncement. Hut it may he said that this wus net an "antuial foinmiijilcntien." Mr. Wilsen's first "nniiiinl" nihlies te Congress, nt the (ipenlng of its regular session In Deeember, specltically refers the legisluters te the re ports of the cabinet nfli s, and then pru- teeils te discuss tbe Mexican situation, the need for new banking and ftiirency luws, prevision for rural credits, the revision of tin nntl-trust laws, the conditions in the Philippines, I'orte Kiee mid Alaska, and the need for tin employers' liability law for the protection of railroad wetkeri-. lie made ntlirtiiative reciiinmetiilatiens en all these subjects while saying nothing about the state of the union. Ills Micceedliig addres.sfs have been of ti like fharacter. And It is met ally certain Hint he will deliver himself tomorrow of another message nr nibltess, as the ciiai' liiaj be. ulni h Is buill after the new fashion. Whiitevei it niiitilllis it will be lead with cure, both te distnvcr tln cvtciit te which I be iiiiud of the Presidpiit has tci ceii'd its ilrilitj and te lcirn just lmw he has ad justed himself the conditions with which he is confronted at henie and alueiid.

LOWItlR THAT was n very geed itlen of Mrs. f.eergc Duiiiilug's mid Mayer Moere's, that con ference between the executives of the city and the organized political women of the clt ! It let in light en n number of hitherto darkened corners. I should sny the Miter iiiid his directors sew light, mid the open minded among the women saw light : tlmt 1, they saw .he difficulties of the political situa tion of the clt government, ns well ns the opportunities, In a somewhat eleurer medium than iieretofere. The reason I knew that the Mayer and bis directors saw light is that they talked business. They just wnded in and gave facts without palaver. As some one re marked, they talked neress, net ever or down. Which was a relief, fpr most of the women who were there were persons of affairs, who were net there te be compli mented or te compliment. Till, pedestnl about whirl, we used te bear se much, and which the fearful-minded aiming the nntis set up as a kind of altar before which they were went te croon and te lament Cassandrnwlse, lins evidently been removed te the scrap heap of the centuries. Never agniti will any cany Victorian figure lime te pose .sweetly mid cempluceutl iipuli it. It did a geed deal of harm in Its day that pedestal! It deceived n let of persons. There was a kind of man that cnje.vcd plac ing women 011 it nml then going off and for getting them. There was 11 kind of woman who lather fancied heiself en it.

Aftei a geed deal of amusing propaganda, the women get it into their stubborn, pieju 'dii ed heads that it was net because 11 girl was pietl.v or 11 woman was geed or worthy or thought herself Important it was that all women weie ill 11 sense the petPiitiul inellipis of the nice, and lis such deserved tl sped and homage of their men. livery man because of his own mother took off bis hat le her sex ! TTf X C.I STUI'CK me that, ihe Mayer and bis hind were fully awake te the fact that tliey had in that great g.ithei lag nf women 11 new piditicnl I. tree of great peteiitlnl value because il was vitally itileiesinl in the re sults nf their labors fieui the viewpoint of tlip mothers of the i.ice, net as pedestal ladies ; As though te illiistiate it and confirm i new and again, one (eiild hear the voice of it child in the great room.

In fad, I found myself listening le the directors' icperts with that child, ami nil the ethers that hed been left at home or weie ut school, in m mind. Till' Mayer seemed lelieved. 1 thought, te further ventilate his views en the bumpering piovisiens of the civil service laws in the matter of getting rid of mi itn desiiable official. it was like getting 11 mistake en n monthly hill corrected in the depni tmeiit of accounts nt 11 department store.

Indeed, the piesciit Mayer gnve 11s te iiniln stand that the tradition of Mr. I'.lnnkeiibuig's probity in tliis icspc.t as well as ethers, was still sacred in the ilcpnrtnicnts.
