New York, Dec. 3—Fifteen hundred steerage passen. camel generally believe it, the desired change can be easily made. Equal suffrage or new laws are not essential. The boycott is the weapon. There is no merchant in America, whether he deals in dry goods or hardware, who would not tremble at the thought of a boycott by the women. He would understand the hopelessness of resistance and would yield without a strugyle. If the women are truly sympathetic with the boy messenger, if they wish to secure better treatment for their sisters behind the counter or at the sewing machine, they have but to issue an ultimatum. No one will resist or even hesitate if assured that the order is really a finality. But the weak point, and it often a fatally weak point, is that the ultimatum issued by women is generally not an ultimatum at ajl. The women threaten and do not carry out their threats. The talk, but do not act boycott, and merchants, wise from experience, are not apprehensive of the danger of such an organization as the. Consumers’ League. Its demands have not always been enforced in previous instances and may be expected to be equally ineffective in many cases in the fnture. The women have only themselves to blame for this, The power is in their own hands if they choose to use it. They cam save the messenger boys, they can furnish seats for saleswomen, they can compel the stores to close at any hour they see fit, and they can effect any reforms they may desire, whenever they are sufficiently convinced of the need of united action on their part. > vo vere eeT eH F THE HELD OF THE PAPERS. THE California Promotion Committee, recognizing the good woik done by the newspapers of the State, proposes to establish a California publication bureau to utililize still more fully the power of the press. As the Oakland Enquirer advises, the committee should be careful not to put this work into inexperienced hands. No one but a practical newspaper juan understands newspaper methods, and no one should be intrusted with this work for the State who is not an expert. Probably every man connected with the Promotion’ Committee feels quite sure that he could run a paper better than those trained to the business, but in such opinion*he is wholly wrong. If the Promotion Committee really wish to make its publication bureau a success, it must put a genuine, practical editor in charge of the newspaper work. The papers do an immense amount of valuable, unrecognized work forthe State and will continue to do it, whether aided by the Promotion Committee or not, but they willl appreciate any assistance received from that organization and will gladly co-operate with it, if it pursue the proper intelligent methods. If its new bureau of publication be organized and conducted in’ the right way, it will be of the greatest value, but if the usual mistake be made and men ignorant of the business be placed in control, its usefulness will be greatly lessened, if not entirely destroyed. But whether rightly or wrongly managed, the papers will go ahead as before and work for the good of the State. The papers of California did this work before the Promotion Committee came into existence, have continued it ever since, and will be at it when the committee has gone out of existence. .
