treatment of this great subject. l

THE Daughters of the Republic
of Texas have asked Miss Clara
Driscoll to reconsider her decision
to withdraw from the organization.
If it had not been for Miss Driscoll
the historic old Alamo would per
haps even now be reduced to a
heap of ruins, a sacrifice to the
insatiate greed of cold commercial
ism, its existence only a memory.
But Miss Driscoll stepped into the
breach, saved the spot hallowed by
the blood of heroes. only to be
confronted at last with the fact that
others besides prophets are not
without honor save in their own
country-at least to some people

, for wives for the cowboys in tn,
section around Meeteetse in Wyo
ming, re-enacts an ancient historic
event with interesting variations
Many will remember that in the
early days in Virginia wives were
scarce article and the London
Company came to the rescue OF
the colony of bachelors and sent
over a ship load of comely young
women of good repute, who were
sold to the men as wives"
This sounds rather brutal to the
modern ear, but as a matter Of
fact it is said that the woman had
to ratify the sale before it was
binding, and the sale consisted in
paying the woman's passage money
over the ocean. If the woman did
not choose to marry any of the in
tending suitors, she had the choice
of going to work for herself. 1t
was an odd situation, of course,
and out of it Miss Johnston, the
novelist, developed a very readable
story.
The Wyoming matrimonial i'm
portation bureau handled things
quite differently. and nothing so
we'll illustrates man S change of at
titude towards woman. Instead of
standing the women up in line and
letting the men take their choice,
the Wyoming bachelors imported
the women and found them we'll
paying positions of one kind or an
other, then the bachelors proceed
ed to pay court to them, thus Civ
ing the whole balance of power in
to the hands of the women.
1t is quite conceivable that some
Of those women charmed with the
freedom of earning their own liv-
ing, without any loss of social dig
nifty as in the more conventional |
East, may conclude not to marry
at all. One wonders what the
bachelors will do about
it.
Still, it would appear from the
tenor of the correspondence pre-
liminary to the coming of the
maids that the majority of them do
not intend to play any dog in the
role. In fact, most of
them seem to be quite as willing
as Barkis and they give naive ex-
preston of their preferences as to
husbands. The astonishing fact
appears upon careful compilation
of statistics from that voluminous
eight thousand letters in answer to
the Wyoming bachelors advertise
nent that the majority of these
women prefer husbands from IS to
IS years old, and none of them
we're willing to go below IS. From
his it must not be inferred that I

years-quite the reverse, in fact. 1
