Sex Equality in Finland.

When you feel like grumbling at the
advancement of women in America,
and their evident determination tc
stand on an equal footing with men,
they do not imagine that you have dis
covered something new.
In a corner of Europe the subject
was thrashed out years ago and set
tied. In Finland, while the women
cannot vote, no other door ia barred
to them. Behind the counter at the
bank you will often find a woman.
Women attendants only are found on
sleeping cars; there are many women
street car conductors.
In married life husband and wife
share each others property. In
fidelity is sin for a man as much as for
a woman; divorce is rare, and the
righteous party invariably holds the
children and the property, while So
ciety closes its doors to the doer of
evil.
No, sex equality has not made of
Finland a second Eden. The country,
in the grip of Russia, is anything but
that. But it Is a fact that the rise Of
women has not harmed men, nor has
1T coarsened women. They love and
bear children as they did before.
They seek education and find it, but 1t
has not made them the worst mothers,
Almost universal education has ad-
vanced the type Of Finnish women.
In colleges they stand shoulder to
shoulder with the males. Their
brains are as keen, or keener, their
wits as fine, and their steadiness in
the pursuit OF knowledge something TO
admire and emulate. Among PIP fell
lows that compose the organization OF
fine minds, the Royal Geographical
Society of Finland, 70 are women
When your wife joins a club and the
girl yearns for a career, don't mag or
throw cold water on advanced ideas.
Don't pratt about a woman's sphere be-
ing the home. Nine times out of ten
she has brains enough to discover her
own sphere. And the thing has
already been worked out in Finland to
the advantage OF all concerned,-St

Was Lincoln Wrongs?

What more impressive text for both
North and South to study to-day, on
the nirety-fourth anniversary Of Abra-

which Judge Roger A. Pryor quotes
in his letter printed in another place
on this pager

Lincoln in n of the speeches Of the
great debate which gave him national
fame and made him President, IAN in
favor of the race to which l belong

Lincoln, ''to introduce political and
social equality between the white and
the black races"
"There is a physical difference, "said
Abraham Lincoln, afterward the Eman-
c~ipator," between the two which, in
my judgment, will probably forever
forbid their living together upon a
footing Of perfect equality"
The rights which Lincoln demanded
for the African in America were those
of life. liberty and the pursuit of hap

equality.

The ridiculous law which prevents
the importation of wood pulp from our
territory of Alaska is a sample OF
some of the absurd legislation which
Congress has put upon the country for
the benefit of private interests. This
law, in keeping up the price of print

the United States. Congressman
Tawney will have done the country a
great service if he succeeds in his
efforts toward the abolition of this

Large Families are Expensive.

White House expenses have sud-
denly increased from s25, 900 TO $780,
600 a year. The most generous ex-
PLANTATION is that made by Col. T. A.
Bingham, the retiring superintendent
OF public buildings and grounds, who,
in bis written report to Congress on
the estimated expenses for the coming
fiscal year, said that this increase was
made necessary by the Presidents large
family.
Though the President has taken
umbrage at this statement, it remains
the most charitable one yet made.
For surely it is no disgrace to have a
large family and to provide we'll for it.
The White House has been blessed
with few large families. R~oosevelt's
Is the largest that has ever occupied
it.. 1t is natural that his living ex-
penses should be larger than those of
his predecessors. The assertion of
the fact is nothing to give o%tTense.
President Roosevelt has very re-
Gently put himself on record as being
In favor of large families. To Il wo-
man in Toledo, o., who gave birth TO
bankruptcies he sent his congratula-
tions and his photograph, with a let
ter saying he believed 10 large fami-
lies. 1t is a common sense view.
Large families are the substance of So
ciety and the mainstay of the nation.
No home is complete without children
in it.
But If the pace at the White House
for increased expenses because of
family is to obtain in other houses,
large families must become not only
unpopular, but in general impossible.
Roosevelt has five children. The ill.,
creased annual expense is $35, 900.
At this ate few homes could afford
large families, unless the government
paid the expenses, as it does in this
case. An expense of 81, 900 a year for
each child would soon bankrupt most
large families.
The President takes umbrage at this
explanation Of his increased living ex-
penses. In this he is undiplomatic.
A large family is legitimate. Some
other possible causes for the extra ex-
pense, which are being limited at are
not so legltimate.-St. Louis Chronicle.

THE GUN WAS LOADED.
Accidentally Discharged By One Boy
 and Killed His Chum.

Derby, March 21.-While playing with a loaded shot gun, Leon C. Ben ham, aged 16 years, was accidentally shot and killed last evening by his chum, Frank Barry, aged 15. Ben ham was a son of Frank J. Benham, a contractor at piano factory here, but he lived at the home of Miss Lizzie Swift on Derby Hill. Late yesterday afternoon, young Barry went by invi- tation of Benham to the latter's home to play marbles, and when he arrived there found Benham playing with a gun with which he had been shooting muskrats. Benham suggested that Barry should try to throw marbles in- to the barrel of the gun, and after this play had continued some time Barry took the gun and Benham in his turn aimed marbles at the muzzle. Sudden ly. while the gun was In Barry's hands. it was discharged, and the entire load of small shot penetrated Benham' S abdomen. severing the abdominal aorta. He died in twenty minutes. pr Beardsley, the medical examiner, re- turned finding of accidental death. It is a peculiar fact in connection with the case that two years ago Barry was wounded in the feshy part of the thigh by a bullet from a rife in yhe hands of Benham.

Thurs day and Friday the Judiciary commit tee began it's hearings on the proposed repeal of the general railroad law.

 Haven road putting on the stand a score of witnesses from various towns along the proposed route to show that
 the temper of the people of the state
 was against any radical change in the present law. The New Haven hosfd,
 represented by Attorney E. D. Rob-
 D1ns of Hartford, the Connecticut Rail- way & Lighting Go, represented by Allan w. Paige and various other street
 railroad attorneys appeared for the repeal, resting their case simply on arguments. The whole controversy came down at once to a light between the new corporation and the street railroads and New Haven
 road, and all of the discussion was on the question of permitting the Hart ford, Middletown and New Haven Rap- i'd Transit Go to exercise its right of eminent domain and build Its proposed
