ARE WOMEN READY TO VOTE?

Every year about town meeting time
we hear from a certain class of women
who want to vote. They think they see
the injustice of being excluded from
school matters, property taxation and
other like town affairs in which they are,
or ought to be- equally interested with
the men.
There is lust where the rub comes.
They ought to be equally interested
with the men in these and all matters
but are they?
They want to VOTE but the law says
no, and the law will probably continue
to say no, while they, the women, con-
tinue in their present ignorance OF how
the affairs of the town should be con-
Quoted. what its real needs are and how
the men are meeting these needs.
The first step toward helping to gov
ern is to learn how to govern.
The law doesn't exclude women from
the grocery caucuSes, those preliminary
town meetings where all the town S
business is aired and discussed and gen
orally decided, and yet few women who
want to vote care to participate III these
The law doesn't exclude women from
the toWnhouse on the first OF second
Monday in March. There she can learn
much that will stand her i'll hand when
her time comes to vote. She IS not de-
barred from taking a part i'll the dis
cussions and if she has something to
say worth listening to the men are only
too glad to listen to her. But these very
women WHO want to vote seldom II ever,
avail themselves of this privilege.
Just imagine that tomorrow the right
of suffrage in municipal affairs be given
to women, how many of the most in
telligent in the smaller towns would
know how to conduct a town meeting,
or even to put motion in order. Parl-
mentary law and etiquette is closed
book to most women and until they
have mastered a certain portion OF that
they ought not to want to vote.
The vote itself is small part OF the
municipal governing. Logical discus
sion, up-to-date ideas. progressive
thoughts, wise tinanciering, careful ex-
penditure, all along these lines must
woman educate herself before she is able
to govern, and until she is capable OF
governing. giving her a vote is but an
empty legislation.
We have too many ignorant, ire
sponsible voters now.-Helen NJ. Smith
in the Bar Harbor Record.

The Shoe Situation.

Jobbers are placing large orders for fall
delivery of shoes, readily paying the recent
advance in prices, and manufacturers Of
heavy goods have booked more business
than is customary at this early date. Whole
especially from the West, and the shops are
assured of continued activity. Shipments
from Boston since the year opened have
largely surpassed any similar period on re-
cord, which is the more remarkable in view
of the rapid growth Of this industry, outside
New England. Leather is quiet. but low
point has been reached in domestic hides,
and prices have steadied, which is due to
the somewhat better condition of receipts.

March "a, number of the young people
connected with the W. l. I. sidewalk circle
gave an entertainment in the town hall for
the benefit of the circle. The entertain

taken by Misses Nellie CoOmbs, Ellie HatchN
Agnes Williams, Mrs. Laura Farrow, Stuart

the hired man, taken by Edwin Hatch, was
rendered very effectively. Miss Coombs,
representing Mrs. Tomkins, showed great
deceit and double-dealing. and carrying
secrets which embittered her life, never
daring to disclose them, had a long and
difficult part, and received much favorable
comment from the audience. All the char
acters we're well sustained throughout. The
play lasted two hours and no observable
mistakes were made. The travelling was
very bad, but about 40 were present.

While the practical features OF the
report of the coal strike commission
naturally had first attention, because
of their bearing upon the future supply,
and price of this indispensable fuel
that portion relating to strikes and
unions is scarcely less important. In
deed, it may be said to be of first i'm
portance, as strike under present con-
ditions means violation of law, disor-
der crime and assaults upon the rights
of individuals, and is thus menace
not only to the peace but to the pros
perity of the country. "The history o.
the strike,' says the report of the com
mission, sis stained with a record of
riot and bloodshed, eliminating in
three murders, unprovoked save by the
fact that two of the victims were as
serting their right to work, and another
was an officer of the law who was per-
forming his duty in attempting to pre-
serve the peace" And further:
Men who chose to be employed or
who remained at work were aSsalled
and threatened; and they and their
families terroriZed and inundated. In
several instances the houses of such
workmen were dynamited or otherwise
assaulted, and the lives of unoffending
women and children put in jeopardy.
The armed guards employed to protect
the Golfers and the men who worked
them appear not to have been an I'M
necessary precaution, and the Governor
of the State was, as the evidence before
the committee shows, justified in calling
out the citizen soldiery of the common
wealth to preserve its peace and vindi-
cate its laws. The resentment express
ed by many persons connected with the
strike at the presence of the armed
guards and militia of the State does
not argue well for the peaceable char
acter or purposes of such persons. No
peaceable or law-abiding citizen has
reason to fear or resent their presence.
