By the vote Of Idaho one more state
seems to have been added to the gal
a1ry of commemorative which have ex-
tended to women a measure of justice
long withheld.
The equal suffrage amendment to the
constitution which was submitted to
the people at the recent election was
approved by a majority of those voting
on the question Since however it did
not receive a majority of the total vote
cast at the election, the legality Of its
adoption win probably be contested and
the matter must in that case be deter
mined BY the courts. If the courts
shall follow the precedent esta blished
in Kansas in connection with the pro-
hibitory liquor amendment Idaho's suf-
frage amendment must be declared leg
ally adopted
1t viii be remembered that the pro-
hibitOry amendment lacked some thou
sands Of votes of receiving a majority
of the votes cast at the election in
which it was before the people. It re-
ceived a majority of the vote cast on
that question. however. and was de-
clared adopted. The legality of its
adoption was afterwards sustained by
the courts From a common sense view
point any other ruling would seem to be
equivalent to counting the silent votes
on the side Of the opposition to the
amendment
It seems safe to class Idaho with Col
orado. Utah and Wyoming. 1t looks as
though all reforms must come from the
west. The east is SO set in its ways.

In the Sixth district of California
Populist Barlow. has been elected to
congress over his Republican opponent
By a small majority. The district is
naturally Republican but the party
newspaper organs made a bitter fight
on Barlow. He was vilided and abused
in every way that could be thought of.
All sorts Of approbrious epithets were
applied to him, yet the people elected
him. If the space devoted to the per

lied in proving to his supporters the
fallacy of their position on national ques-

It is improbable that the proposition
to select Mr.. Bryan as a representative
of the state of Washington in the Uni
ted States senate, if seriously made
which is doubtful. will meet with that
gentleman's approval or the approval Of
the country. The people have had an
example of that sort of thing in the
case of Calvin S. Brice of eNw York,
Rhode Island and Ohio and from the
press comments on the matter from
time to time it is safe to conclude that
they do not like it. If once established,
the custom of choosing a United States
senator from anywhere and everywhere
would be one fraught with great dan
ger to the liberties Of the people. 1t is
unlikely that either the people of Wash
ingtOn or Mr.. Bryan viii be parties to
any movement of that kind.
