The conclusion of the whole matter is simply
that there is nothing to be gained in the solution
OF political problems by extending the privilege
OF suffrage to women. But much might be lost
by destroying, in measure, that respect for
women which men ought always to entertain 1t
is that respect which is best guarded By preeerv-
ing IN women their native modesty; and tha
ornament, is, also, that which makes her shrink
from coming in contact with the roughness and
depravity of the world Denver Republican.

IT is all nonsense for old people 10 scold
about the small boy and the fre-cracker on
the Fourth of July. The Fourth of July is
the day for fre-crackers, for noise, for gun
powder and for small boys. We know there is
a city ordinance against shooting in the limits,
but We like that chief Of police in ST. Louis,
who officially announced that on the Fourth
Of July the law would not be enforced, and
prescribed the regulations under which the
small boy and his fre-cracker would be not
only permissible, but under the protection of
the authorities. Some things are possible
and some things are not. One of the things
that are not, is to have Fourth Of July with
out the small boy and the fre-cracker When
there can be a Fourth of July without the
burning of gunpowder, then it will be time
to fence in the American Republic In the
meantime, here is to the Fourth of July, the
small boy and the fre-cracker-a glorious
combination, despite the man who never felt
his heart thump meath his little ribs. Long

THOSE in charge of the Tomlinson Hall
meeting on Sunday might say that there were
more than seven hundred present by actual
count, when the services began, and that 9TH
ers came in during the evening. It is quite
possible that the reporters failed in computing
the audience, for even eight hundred people
in that hall would impress one as making a
small audience. Seven or eight hundred peo-
pie was good crowd for such night, and
gives added promise for the success of the
meetings in the future. On Sunday night
next, Rev. E. j. CAN'T, of the First Christian
Church, will preach. The meetings are de-
signed for the accommodation and benefit of
those who DO not attend regular church serv-
ices, and for strangers and others temporarily
in the city. The meetings will be continued
through the summer months at least.

THE season of the year has arrived when ex-
plosions of boilers of portable engines used in
threshing wheat will be frequent. These dis
asters, usually so destructive of life and prop
erty, are the result of wornout boilers and in
competent engineers, both of which should be
avoided as far as possible. 1t is not profitable
to run risks in this direction. The boilers
should be carefully, inspected before beginning

ployed to run them because he is CHEAP

THE Democratic House of Representatives
thinks to lay trap for the Republicans of
the Senate by passing general pension law,
AID adding to it a provision for an income
tax. The expectation is that the Senate will
defeat the bill because OF the tax provisi on,
and thus the Democrats will be able to go to
the country saying that they favored pen
siors, and the Republicans killed the bill.
The best way to beat the Democrats at this
little game viii be to pass the bill. If the
Democratic party desires to re-enact an in
come tax, let them have the responsibility.
The Republicans can stand It quite as well as
the Democrats can.

the same there are thousands of Democrats

YESTERDAY was hot enough for all the pur-
poses of Fourth-of-July celebration. Bust
ness was generally suspended, and sweltering
humanity did the best it could to enjoy itself
nd honor the day. Unless the climate has
greatly changed during the last 10 years, our
forefathers should have known better than to
have given the country the Fourth of July at
this season of the year About the middle of
May or the 1st of October would have been a
