Why Don't the Boys Marry2

AN EASTERN journal recen tly pre-
pounded TO it's readers the conundrum ::
why Don't the Boys Marry" Since
that time. its columns have been flooded
with letters giving the ideas of the
different writer's. One young lady
scores the dudes as follows: To COM
hence with, the young men nowadays
have no ambition and are content 70
earn salary, say from $40 to SD per
week, which, if they obtain the above
amount, is the height of their ambition,
and on this they expect to marry and
live as though they had an income of
$1,000 a year. The young girl can
make as much as that herself, and why
should she give up her freedom to bur
den herself with the cares OF married
life when she can afford to be independ-
ent. She can dress herself nicely. and
nowadays young girls can 20 to places
of amusement without fear of insult
and be perfectly Independent of an
escort who, on the average, is obliged
to forfeit his whole weeks salary to
take young lady to the theatre or
some other place of amusement. More.
over, young men of the present age
have too many outdoor sports, such as
baseball. rowing matches, yachting,
etc., and they have no time to devote
to young lady. They board in
fashionable boarding house, and t! exc
is always some spinster or old lady 10
sew on buttons, mend their clothes.
etc., for the privilege of being escorted
to church or concert. The young
men do not seem 20 understand that
the young lady who is independent
enough to earn her own living IS the
one who will spend his money iudicl
ously, for she knows the ~alue of dol
lar and how far it should go But no;
they prefer one who is staying at home
and who will jump at the first chance
to break away from no ne bondage.

More Light Wanted

The Moline Dispatch is complaining
bitterly of the poor light furnished
its citizens. 1t thinks there Is
too much economy by far and says
that to run all night when there is no
moon, or it is cloudy, would involve but
two additional items of expense. for fuel
aud for carbons, and the necessity of
keeping up steam anyway would reduce
the fuel item, so it would be inconsidera-
BILE. There are not many people out
after midnight, but those who are need
the light more than earlier pedestrians,
and the police would certainly be aided
by having light streets. 1--WE believe the
extra expense would be wisely expended
In giving light all night. The manage
ment of affairs at the water works is also
amatter which interests everyone. 1t has
been suggested to have an electrician APP
pointed BY the mayor and council and
responsible to them for the whole electri
cal apparatus, and have the engineer fur
nish the requisite power to run the dyna
mos. There has been much dissatisfac'
ton with the wretched lighting of oul
streets Of late, and it will be better t.
have competent electrician at a goot
salary than poor one at any price, anC
then when he is obtained let him hav'
entire charge of the plant. II the ligh
then isn't what 1t should be, there will b.
man to complain to, and who will bt
