Legal Equality.

The women are again moving in the
state Of Illinois in the interest of equal.
ity before the law. God bless them and
God speed them in their righteous quest
The shame is that it is left for the women
to lead. Let the men inaugurate the
movement that will make for justice.
This cause has lost its newness. It has
had to pay full price for the crudities
and extravagances that gather around
every reform, but at the core the de-
mand is righteous one, and it must be
heard. and ultimately it must triumph.
Let no one lose heart and Let no one de-
lay any legitimate effort. Wyoming,
Colorado, Utah and Idaho have fully
enfranchised their women Eastward
the star Of (this) empire takes its way. "

FIRST WOMAN CITIZEN
Her Sturdy Lads and Clever Lasses Become
Prominent Citizens What Some Of
them Accomplished.
From the Meros, Indianapolis, Ind.

Hundreds of thousands of men of foreign
birth have taken out papers declaring their
cltizenshlp IN Indiana since that State was
admitted into the Union in 1916 without
creating remark or comment 1t was a diff
ferent matter, however, when along in the

ms FIRST woman citizen" was an Irish
widow who settled in southern Indiana with
her progeny of sturdy lads and clever lasses
upon farm which she had bought.
The Widow Ryan" as she was known
IN Davies County, Indiana, was a great
woman with clever business head and left
behind her those who grew to be worthy
men and worthy women, and who have left
their impress upon the State.
One of these sons James B. Ryan became
treasurer of the State of Indiana, and a son.
in-law, Nj. L. Brett also held that high and
honorable position. Another son was the
late Lieut.. Col. Richard j. Ryan who was.
probably the most brilliant and gifted orator
that Indiana ever produced and who during
the war for the Union served his country in
the Thirty-ffth Indiana Volunteer Infantry,
better known as "the Irish Regiment"
Another son is Thomas F. Ryan who is
now % yeats old, and with a few intervals of
absence has been a resident of Indianapolis
for fOrty-twO years.
In the early fifties smitten by the GOLD
fever he went by way of the Isthmus of
Panama to Cali ornia. He has been all over
the far west engaged in mining and trade
operations in Oregon, Arizona and Montana
From May, 1885 until August, 1887 he was
the government agent at the Seal Islands off
the Alaska coast, highly responsible posi-
ton.

A Kentucky heiress spent 500 600 the pas
three years travelling. The question arises
what has she done to produce that amount o
wealth? Is there not something wrong Au
gusta Journal. (Pop)
A young man who, according othe
Journal, was comparatively obscure
and unknown a year ago, twice,
recently, repeated speech he has
probably delivered five hundred times
a very ordinary speech, by the way,
and for these two chestnuts he receiv.
ed over sixteen hundred dollars. The
question arises, did w. J. Bryan do
anything to produce that amount of
wealth, or earn it? as there not
something wrOng?"
Less than year ago this young
man said that no man could earn more
than five thousand dollars in a year.
Yet he Jugs off one-third that sum n
two days. us there not something
wrong ?u
Mr.. Bryan was not satisfied with
one half the gate receipts at the Of
tawa Chautauqua, which Melted him
1925 in two hours, but insisted that the
management should turn over to him
twenty-five cents each for one half
the season tickets used that day.
When fellow is not satisfied with
1925 for a wOrmy old chestnut "is
there not something wrong ?"
In the same issue of the Journal
from which the preceding slam at the
Kentucky heiress is taken, Bee. Cady
eulogizes MIR. Bryan to the skies. 1t
says he is "every inch man" and
that id 1900 he twill be the peoples
for President" and that
''the organized wealth of the world
will meet their Waterloo" But at
this $1,000 rate won't Mr.. Bryan be
wealthy himself, by 1900 -?
If so, and if he should then take no.

Of his gate receipts for travelling ex-
oenses, say the Insignificant little sum
If 100000, wouldn't he make a fine

And wouldn't it be big joke on the
wealth of the world if this
oeddler of stale chestnuts should
Knock 'em all out, besides setting 'em
IN example In accommodating ducats |
without doing anything to produce
wealth =?
Strange, isn'tit, that bright young
