presented to the legislature in Janu-
ary re-organizing the system OF &C
counting used in the offices OF county
auditors and treasurers throughout
the state. Plans for the work were
laid months ago, but the campaign
interfered with their execution. The
commission will consist of either i've
or seven, at the option OF the
governor, and the members will be
selected by the governor and State
Auditor r. G. Dunn. It is said that
politics will have nothing to do with
the appointments and that the very
ablest auditors will. be chosen. The
entire system of accounting in use
will be examined and aided by the
suggestions of the state auditor, pub

the plan worked out will make acct

cupied with matters of absolute
necessity, SO that it is hard to predict
the fate of measures which, if neeess
airy, can be laid aside for the time

Senator Elkins thus briefed his
ideas of what he hoped Congress
would do: The first bill | want to

WOMEN SUFFRAGE /.

That the right of suffrage should
be granted to females as we'll as
males is the contention of a certain
class in the United States, and owing
to their ability and respectfully
they are entitled to a hearing, says
the Paramount News. Their argu-
ments are familiar to all and the only
thing we shall consider in this article
is what, to us, is the chief objection
10 II. A class that has the right OF
suffrage, but does not want to ana
will not vote, is dangerous to the vel
fare of the state, for the reason that
the corrupt portion of it will be
manipulated by corruptIonlsts' ana
the better element will noe Offset their
influence. We do not believe that
the majority of women want to vote
or would exercise the right if they
possessed it. This belief is borne
out by the result wherever it has been
tried. In this state where women
have the right to vote on school mat
tiers but very small percentage ex-
ercise the privilege. In the recent
election some counties did not return
a woman's vote, and in none OF them
did a majority go to the polls. But,
saws the enthusiast: "That is because
the suffrage is so limited; it would bel
entirely different if they could vote
for all officers" But. in Wyoming,
where each sex has equal rights, out
of $4,000 votes, but 5000 were cast by
women. We have seen no statement
in regard to the other states where
equal rights exist, but this one case
goes far to proye our position. We
are in favor of woman suffrage when
women want to vote and not before.

THAT GROSS EARNINGS CONTRACT

AAAA \ 0NOo0 EkAf<lNAlN0CS sOlNA n ~ =
By an opinion handed down by the
supreme court of the United States
on Monday, the Anderson law taxing
unused railway lands in this state was
declared invalid on account of being
in conflict with a certain contract re-
garding gross earnings taxes which
had been made with the railroads.
The decision, by the way, vindicates
the position Of those members of the
Legislature who two years ago voted
against the bill to increase the tax on
gross earnings on the ground that
the state had a contract with the rail-
.. roads which could not be violated
The people of the state. have been
much in favor of additional taxation
of railroads and accordingly ratified
the Anderson law four years ago and
we're DESTROYS of an increase of the
gross earnings tax two years ago, but
the wisdom of the Legislators who
voted against the increase is now prov
ed, and no doubt in time the present
three per cent gross earnings con-
tract will throw the greater part Of
state taxes on the railroads.

THE CLAIMS OF TRAVERSE.

"THE Grant County Herald says
that there was no trading INDUCED
in Grant by the friends of the legis.
lative candidates. That is unques-
tionabIy true, and is equally true IN
the other counties of the district. The
result was due to combination OF
unlocked for circumstances that
might easily haye been avoided had
not the republicans been over-conti-
dent, 1t is lesson that will not be
forgotten and two years hence repub-
licans will not take 80 much for
granted and the Legislative ticket will
b. elected without break. In this
connection it might not be out OF
place to say that as Traverse is with
out representation on the delegation
that will represent the district at the
coming session, she is entitled to
special consideration next time and
would not object to having the priv
lege of furnishing candidate for the
senatorship. There are several gen
Z. . r 4 + i
.tlemen in this immediate vicinity who
would I'LL the position with credit.
When the proper time comes it is
probable that the republicans OF
Traverse will unite in presenting the
name Of one THESE gentlemen and
will expect the other two counties to-
gracefully fallin line and make it
unanimous"

ing that Grant will wish to endorse.
their present representative, the dis
position Of the senatorship would
thus lie between Traverse and Stevens.
Traverse county never has had the
senatorship, and no doubt has several
candidates who would fill the office
with credit TO themselves and to the
district, chief among which would no
doubt be the gentleman who BY an
untoward combination Of circum
stances was this year defeatee for tho

CUBA AND THE UNITED STATES.

| Now that the Cuban constitutional
convention is in session, ald it has
been possible to learn something of Its
composition and spirit, members OF
the administration at Washington are
hopeful of a happy outcome. It is
believed that the American policy,
which till now has been kept well in
the background, will be adopted by
the convention as its own. If this
proves to be the case, then indeed
will the people of Cuba have cause
for thankfulness; for they will secure
all the advantages of nationality along
with the perfect security which is to
be found under the powerful wing Of
the great republic. The Cubans will
gain full control of their domestic
affairs, without interference by the
United States, save that they are
voluntarily to restrict their power to
contract debt. Under the new regime
Cubans will be justified in looking
upon their republic as nation; for
government, in the fullest sense,
IS to be theirs. They may make all
their domestic laws, set up their own
governmental machinery, fix their
tariffs, levy their taxes, order their
expenditures, establish their courts,
police their territory, without fear Of
interference or dictation from abroad.
But the foreign relations Of the re-
pubic of Cuba are to be conducted
at Washington, not at Havana. Cuba
will have no ministers abroad, but
will speak through the Stare Depart
ment and the diplomatic establish
ment Of the United States. Foreign
governments having business with
Cuba will address the Secretary of
State, Washington, and he will COM
municate with the island government
at Havana. Inwardly Cuba is to be
a sovereign nation; internationally it
is to be an American State. In other
words, the republic of Cuba is to be
to the United States almost precisely
what the Dominion of Canada is to
Great Britain, save that Cuba will
choose a president, and not have a
nominal encouragement appoint
ed by the paramount power. From
