WHILE California farmers find the profits
on wheat growing very thin at present prices
for the staple, the Russians are complain
ing that their wheat does not command the
actual cost OF production. 1t seems to be
an established fact that with our skill in the
industry, improved machinery and cheap
railroad transportation We can produce
wheat at smaller cost in the United States
than can be hoped for in other parts of the
world, and that if anybody is driven out o.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

One of the signs ofthe times with regard
TO woman suffrage in thus country is the
growing opposition Of the women themselves
to throwing this new responsibility on them.
The extension of the franchise to females
was recently defeated in Oregon by an over
whelming majority. This was due in large
part to the efforts of conservative ladies
against it. Their stand on the matter, it is
curious to note, was itself the reflection Of
thai Of the women Of Massachusetts. The
latter were so anxious to oppose the move
.ment to add the ballot to the burdens Of
their sex that they telegrsphed aud wrote to
the people of Oregon to induce them to vote
1t down. In Massachusetts il was By the
strenuous opposition Of some Of the inaaent-
ial women Of the Commonwealth that the
Legislature was persuaded. less than year
ago. to withhold its approval Of the PROPOSE
ton to introduce woman suffrage They
said that they believed thst their liberties
and property and happiness were safer with
out the vote than with it. They said they
believed that if allowed to vote il woald be
its worst element that would distinguish
itself among the workers Of the ser. The
existence Of q feeling as strong as this
among the women Of the country is q new
element in the agitation, aud makes it
likely that the heroic English woman who
recently lei her furniture be sold for taxes

little sympathy from the women Of Amsrics
as she had won from those of her own peo-
who have looked at her performance
with more amusement than admiration.
