TO INSURE SCHOOL HOUSES
Boards Of Directors, Says Assistant
Attorney General, Are Authorized
to Choose Kind Of Insurance.

OLYMPIA, Aug. 13.-Assistant At
torney General Falknor has rendered
the following opinion on the subject
of insurance Of school houses:
"The law authorizes boards of direc-
tors to insure school houses. There Is
no restriction upon the character Of
the company in which they may in
sure. Under the law, as this office
has construed it, mutual fire insur-
ance company may accept insurance
premiums in lieu of assessments.
Whether or not the cash premium paid
would be the extent of the liability
of the insured would depend upon the
bylaws of the company. 1t is possible
for the trustees of the insurance COM
parv t. make the liability Of the poll
cy holders an amount equal to five
insura nee premiums in case cash is
accepted in lieu Of the assessments.
"If your district has insured this
property and paid an annual pre-
MUM in lieu of assessments in order
to determine whether that premium
would be the extent of your liability
it would be necessary for the district
to inquire of the company what Its
bylaws are in that particular. AS
heretofore stated, Notwithstanding the
payment of the cash premium the by
laws of the company might provide, IN
case of loss, that the district would be
liable for further payments not ex-
cccding five annual premiums. If the
district sees fit to insure in mutual
fire insurance company, the attorney
general is of the opinion that the
district would be Able the same as
any other policy holder"

The, terrible day is coming. We
have been looking for it for years, fear
ing and trembling all the time. Mrs
lngals. announced 1t at gathering o:
when she declared. in firm but solemn
voice: I'VE must clear the house OF
fathers cigar"
.ThIg announcement comes so sudden
that the men have had no chance to
consider how to meet the startling in
.novaGon, Startling, because it has
been limited around, by the swestest
women in the world, that they liked
the smell OF q good cigar. and my
husband always felt so much at home
when he smoked his cigar in the sala
that \ liked him to do it." And now,
to Think that back of these blandish'
ments' apd loving concessions, the wo'
meat have been consplring. at their
pink. teas and Dorcas societies, to
drive man from this last solace of his
martial career! And what shall he
do thrown out on the Indictment world
but seek his consolation at club!
We have before in these columns
referred grave1y to the fact that the
world is drifting womanward. Here is
another evidence of It. The man. the
father, and his cigar are to be ruled
away from the sacred hearthstone.
What next! Alas, how many ways
The repression may come! 1t will not
be long, We fancy, when the alleged
good man of the household, engaged
in putting up stovepipe or hanging
picture, will be prohibited, even in a
state of excruciating impotence, from
saying darn it."

Every election has its humorous rs
pecis and this one is no exception. For

ance. in the magazines advertising
columns, is left high and dry in his

and most active in business and poll

The Domestic Problem.
Pittsburg Dispatch.

Pittsburg Dispatch.
When the Journal Of Political Econ
omy takes up the problem OF domestic
service, vulgarly known as "the hircd
girl problem" the women of the coun-
try, and the men also who frequently
have to join in the quest. may heaVe
sigh of relief and look for soln-
ton. But 1t will be in vain. Appeal
ing to the economists is like asking
for bread and being given stone;
we ask them for girls and they give
us-statistics. Statistic may start
fire, but t hey will never ;co6k meal.
Nevertheless, the hgures's explain
things that have never been under
stood The problem remains a prob
lem, but there are sidelights on IT.
For instance, the scarcity Of help Is
explained by the fact that while the,
incubation has Increased % per cent
since 1870 the number of servants has
grown but AZ per cent, and in that
fine the number OF families able 10y
nay for help has increased even moref
rapidly than the ratio OF population. d
Light is also thrown by the statis''
ttcians upon another point. 1t IS
popularly thought due largely to the.
comic artists that most Of our domes':.
tic help comes from abroad, AS a mat
Ter of fact. nearly half is native while
n fourth colored and only a quarter
foreign. Still more remarkable Is the
fact that while the other classes sho%'
increases of nearly 8 per cent. lin ~
years the supply of foreign girls has,
decreased per cent. 1t is true tnat
a larger percentage of foreign white
women enter domestic service, almost
every second one landing, but they do
not stay In II longer than they can
helm. a. fact that the statisticians did
not have to dig up for general infor'
nation. But there the economists
halt. They hold out hope that when
technical knowledge and invention
shall have changed conditions the
problem will be solved. = Z i,

Mr.. Rooseyelts administration has

cling towards Massachusetts, the first
President avoided Rhode Island be
cause that State had not subscribed
its allegiance to the Constitution, and
was not, therefore, a part Of the Uni
ted States. Washington's successors
continued to observe his scruples. The
late President Mckinley, up on the
occasion of his famous trip to the Pa
cific, declined On invitation TO be the
guest .of the city OF Vancouver, and
denied himself the pleasure OF return
ing by way Of the Canadian Pacific
He would not even cross the bridge at
Ell Paso which formed the connecting
Ink between Mexico and the United
States.
There are many good and Sufficient
reasons why the President should re
main within the borders OF this country
while serving as chief executive. The
Constitution does not provide for an
acting president. Indeed, it is doubt
full whether the trainers Of the Con
stItutlon ever anticipated a situation
such as now presents itself, When
the President Is absent, therefore
there Is no one upon whom his duties
and responsibilities can devolve. We
can simply hope that while he is away
the machinery of government will con
tinue; to revolye with its customary
smodthness, and that no occasion tu
executive action will arise. The Pres
fdent and the country take this risk
1t may be remote, but none the Jess
does it exist. Should such, an emer
eency present itself it is doubtful what
course could be pursued. No one. as
we have already pointed ont, can take
his place.
