claimed, the baldest intimidation
was practiced by the Republicans.
In many places Government road
gangs were marched up like herds

bosses desired. This is believed to
have bean prearranged and to have

One season the keeper Of an English
park made a pet of a young cock,
which became so completely tanned that
even after taking up his abode in the
cover he would, at the familiar call,
cautiously emerge, compare the general
appearance of the man with the voice
and, being satisfied as to his identity,
walk quickly toward him ready for the
usual frolic. The keeper would initiate
that peculiar whirring sound of the
bird and make a sidewise lunge. At
the same time the young pheasant
would raise his wings and dart for
ward and backward before his ad-
vancing and retreating opponent and.

Employers Campaign
In Indianapolis

The Employers Association of In
dianapolis has issued circular which
will be sent to every employer in the
city, no matter how small his business
or how few men he carries on his
payrolls. This circular embodies
the principles of the association and
calls upon employers to stand togeth-
er for the protection of the business
interests. The subjoined extract
shows the ground which the associa-
tion covers:
The Employers Association of Indi-
annapolis is not radical nor conten-
tious. 1t Is not looking for trouble.
against workingmen. But it is in
tended to safeguard the business in
terests of Indianapolis, and to main

things il will absolutely do.
If you are a member, we will sup
port you In the employment of ap'
prentices.
We will support you in the mainte-
nance of the "open shop"
We stand by you in the event of a
sympathetic strike or a boycott.
We will see that your employees,
whether union or nonunion, shall
have the protection of the law, and
will secure the punishment of persons
guilty of violence or intimidation.
We will see that you are fairly treat
ed in the public press. and that al
the facts are made known.
We will use our influence to secure
you fair treatment from owners and
architects.

of its members involved in labor

Mr.. ShafrOth Speaks.

The newspapers of the country are
teeming with the reports of the cleo
ton frauds which deprived John F.
Shafroth OF his seat in Congress, and
the manner in which many of them
have "swooped down" upon woman
kind in general, because a few women
took some part in the frauds, is pa
thetic. 1t is the same old story-if
one woman steals it reflects upon all
women; if one woman departs from
the straight and narrow path of vir-
tue, it is construed to mean that all
women prefer the wide and rosy
highway that leads to the neither re-
gion; If one woman cheats in an cleo
tion, an outraged public, cries not
''shame on the woman" oh, no, but
shame on women" Men may lie
and steal, give bribes and take
bribes, prostitute the pulpit, the
press and electorate, buy their way
into public offices, from the United
States Senate down to the village
Board of EDUCATION, yet none of these
things reflect on men as sex, as half
of the people. but only and always
on the individual men who commit
these sins, or rather on the ones who
got caught in the SHINING. The atti-
tude of their natural protectors
towards women is, well, incongruous,
to put it politely. There are ex-
ceptions, of course, and Mr.. Shafroth
is one of these. To be sure man
who is honest enough to give up
seat in the Congress of the United
States just the way he did, might be
expected to be little in advance of
the procession in most things. Mr.
Shafroth is certainly the person
most concerned in the present affair,
and surely his words ought to be
given at least equal consideration
with those of the ''shame on women"
crowd. In an authorized interview,
at which the writer of this article
was present, Mr.. Shafroth said:
"Of the persons implicated in these
frauds, only a very small fraction
we're women-not more than one wo-
man to ten men, at the outside. The
few women who were involved in the
affair were put up to it by the men
To use the incident as an argument
against woman suffrage is preposter-
GUS. Everybody knows that there
are bad women as well as bad men;
but the proportion is about one to
twenty. Would it be an argument
for taking any good mans vote away
from him because a few bad men
somewhere cheated at an election?
The frauds were committed in a bad
| part of Denver, where few women
live. To represent them as charac-
teristic of women's election methods
in Colorado is an outrage. The
women of Colorado vote as generally
as the men. and fraud is much rarer
among them than among men. The
influence of woman suffrage upon our
State has been distinctly for good "

Two women. a mother and her little
daughter. were one night watching
their field of Indian corn-''makaf'-
against the inroads Of the bears. The
mother had TO 90 TO her house to pre-
pare to light a Gre outside. While she
was doing this a bear came and took
her away. He carried her to his den
and daily brought her to eat and drink.
He rolled big stone In front Of his
den whenever he went away ON his
tours. which the girl was not strong
enough to move.
When she became old enough TO do
this. he used daily to lick her feet. by
which they became swollen and gradu-
ally dwindled down 10 mere misshapen
stumps. The girl eventually died, and
the poor bear. after vain efforts TO re-
store her TO life. roamed disconsolately
about the fields.

A consul is, in certain sense, the
representative of his country. To the
people among whom he Is stationed
and to the local authorities he is the
impersonation of his government. He
should be a man of dignity, of self pos
session, of good address and bearing,
Of tact and discretion, who should
command the respect and confidence
of foreign merchants and officials and
who should be honored even by his
travelling countrymen.
When Prince Gortchakof was at the
head of the Russian foreign office, the
candidates for the diplomatic service
after passing the examination were al
ways granted an audience with his
excellency. who then made final deci-
sion by observing the manner In which
they entered the room, the way in
which they addressed him and their
general department during the inter
view. A consul may know all about
invoices and ships and also about seals
and sealing wax, but II he be rude and
undignified, IL he lack savoir faire and
savoir vivre, he could serve his coun.
try 10 better advantage in that obscure
region known as the classic shades OF
private life."-Forum.
