A Lincoln, Nebraska, dispatch says: A feature of the state woman's suffrage convention, which closed today, was the address of Mrs. Caroline M. Woodward. president of the Nebraska Woman's Christian Temperance Union. Mrs. Woodward is Methodist, and she urged women of that denomination to with. draw from active church work until the general conference recognizes them as delegates By refusing to become Sunday school superintendents or otherwise par tcipating, she thought the men would be brought to their senses. She be- lieves the bishops had settled the ques- tion, so there was no hope in 1900, but she thought if an organized effort was made and the fact that they intended to refuse to do any further church work were impressed upon the conference they might receive recognition in 1904. Her remarks were applauded.

Judge Fosters Decision.

In healthy decision adverse to tht Kansas City Live Stock exchange, Judge Foster, of Topeka, uttered some very sound comments The exchange prac tically forbids it's members, who are the bulk of the trade, from dealing with any but members and restricts the market for live stock. In the course of his opin. ion the judge says:
 ''The crying complaint of today and the great menace to the welfare of the people is the tendency of wealth to mo- nopolze and control by trusts and com pines the products and industries of the country, and it must be confessed by every thoughtful observer that many of the so-called stock produce exchanges are among the most potent instrumen. talities tor the accomplishment of these purposes by specuators and adventurers. Men who add nothing to the productive wealth of the country growing rich or poor by gambling on the wealth pro duced by others. Men are daily selling through these exchanges millions of bushels of corn, wheat, and other pro duce who neither have nor expect to have bushel, and others are buying millions who never expect to receive hushel. Both sides are tamperlng with the normal price fixed by the law of supply and demand and attempting by false and dishonest means and methods to serve thelr ends. The courts have uuiformaIly condemned this class of business as illegal, and, though it is un der the ban of the law, it still hourlshes. The remedy must be looked for in legis- lation and not in the courts alone.
