THE WOMEN ARE TO BLAME
FOR 1T ALL.

Melville X. Stone, manager OF the
Associated Press, in an address to
the General Federation of Women
Suffragists at st. Louis, said: LET
me tell you that the scandal papers
of the country are supported by
women. No large metropolitan
newspaper can live unless it meets
tine demands of the women" The
Binghampton, n. Y. Herald in
commenting upon this says:
"Of course, the woman is always
to blame for it all. She was the
one who gave Adam the forbidden
fruit. She is always the one who
drives her husband TO drink, and
evil ways, and who causes him to
get gray headed because of Der
terrible temper. If there is any
thing particularly wrong in the
world it can all be traced back to
woman. We did not believe that
the sensational newspapers were
the outcome of a demand for their
existence by the debased female
sex of the country, but it seems
that such is the case. Epidemics
of crime are probably due to the
women, and we have no doubt that
a careful scrutiny will reveal the
fact that all the evil things of
which the world complains are the
outgrowth of the efforts of tie
women. We are glad to know that
the world is coming to recognize
the william of that terrible sex. In
time to come they will get set
down on the records just where
they belong"
There is more truth in the satiIi-
cal remarks of the Herald than
most people realize. In q recent
paper read before the Society for
the Study of Inebriety, in London,
DR.. Jones made the claim that the
chief cause of drunkenness was the
bad cooking Of hOusekeepers. He,
however, did not explain why this
same food did not make drunkards
of the women who ate the same
food. Another writer recently
made the claim that women were
the cause of wars, and recently the
Male Teachers Association, of New
York City laid the blame of so few
boys graduating from the high
schools upon the women teachers,
claiming that il they were under
the instruction of male teachers
they would remain in school for a
longer time.
Two-thirds of the men lay the
blame to the women for the injus-
tice done by not allowing women
to express their choice of men and
measures at the polls on election
day. They tell us the reason they
do not allow women to vote is be-
cause women do not want to vote
aud thaf thnu a rnahU RI OiUn
the ballot as soon as We manifest
any general desire for it. 1t is the
same old spirit of laying all the
blame to the women that has been
in existence from the time of Adam
and we have become SO accustomed
to it that we seldom stop to con-
slider the righteousness of it all.

THE CIVIC LEAGUE-WORK
TO BE DONE.

The ladies of the Civic League
desire us to again call attention to
the work being done by them in
advancing civic cleanliness.
A good many men say they have
no time for such things. These
ladies say join the Civic League,
pay the 25 cents for membership
and they will do the rest.
They are arranging to have the
Chautauqua Baskets put at con
venient places throughout the city,
in which trash and litter may be
temporarily deposited until it can
be properly disposed Of.
They are gratified at the evident
progress being made in keeping the
streets clean; but much more can
be done.
AS urged by us in our last issue,
when the streets are swept, they
should be thoroughly sprinkled
beforehand and the dirt, when col
leoted in plies in the cutters, should
be at once hauled away, not wait
ing until it can again dry out and
be swept about by the winds.
There is no use in talking, if we
wish a healthy and attractive city,
we must pay attention to these
things. 1t will not do to say, ooh!
we'll! In old times we did not pay
so much attention to these things
and did we'll enough" The truth
is, when we had macadamized
streets only, they were literally
sprinkled and the resultant mud
was scraped up and hauled away.
There is more DUST NOW than
ever before, because it cannot sink
into the body of the brick streets,
and, of course, this makes it more
dangerous and causes more disease.
Wake up and make Frankfort
what she can easily be, the pref
test, cleanest and most attractive
city of her size in Kentucky.

TUESDAYS FIRE.

At sos on Tuesday afternoon an
alarm from box % called the boys to
the cottage of Miss Ruby Macklii,
on East Broadway street formerly
the F. & G.. passenger station),
where blaze was making things
lively on the roof.
After a short tussle the flame was
exiting uished with loss of some
$50 or 500. No insurance.
The house had just been vacated
and it is supposed that some trash
being burned up caused the fire.

CREAMERY FOR CROOKSTON
More Than Half the Stock Already Sold
to Business Men.

CROOKSTON, MINN.-For some time the
building Of creamery has been under consid-
Grafton by the Commercial Union. and it Is now
assured. 1t will undoubtedly be established upon
farmers cooperative lines. and with the i'm
mense territory tributary to the city 1t Is not
likely that there will be any necessity for the
managers to go out of a radius Of ten or twelve
miles to secure milk provided the farmers can
be induced to take stock.
More than half of the stock has been disposed
of to business The matter is being pushed
as rapidly as possible, as it is the intention to
have the building erected and the machinery In
stalled this fall in order to be prepared for an
early opening in the spring and long run next
summer. The ste will probably be in South
Crook ston.
1t is estimated that about 200 gallons of cream
are shipped thru Crookston from points on the
north line and from this vicinity to the twin
cities, where it is disposed Of to creamerfes.
Much of this will be secured for the
CrookstOn creamery.

HOUGHTON, MICH.-The demand for work
ingmen in the upper peninsula is greater than Tor
several years. The boom in the copper district
that started in 1887 and ended in 1900. caused
a scarcity of men while it lasted, but was fol-

nately, the iron districts We're looking for men
about the time the copper district got Its full
quota but many miners were let out on the
iron ranges last year, where mining has been
progressing under check until recently.
Most of the lie iron mines are putting on
extra men at present, and are doing this at
a time Of the year, shortly before the close of
lake navigation, when forces are being lessened,
as a rule, in even the best of years. Some of the
surface men being taken will be let out dur

miners, and these will be retained permanently

His Crime.
Homer Holland five years ago was Drake uni

friend in the world than Matt Hunter. Both
students lived at Mount Ayr and were sons Of
leading men. Holland excelled as an athlete.

fell in love with the girl, telephone oper-

ment and, following poker game in which the
young men had been playing at a Mount Ayr
gamblinghouse it was easy to stir up fuss.
Holland met Hunter several hours later and was
shot dead. Hunter says that Holland started to
shoot first. 49,.
