WHERE WOMEN VOTE.
Results of the Finnish Elections
Female Franchise Works Well.

. VI.
There is no doubt that the elections pro-
duced the deepest impression upon the
whole of the Finnish population. For the
first time in the history of Finland women
have voted, and the general opinion in
Finland is that they have perfectly &C
quilted themselves of their new rights and
duties. Little Finland with her popula-
ton of less than 100000, has 1891, 421
voters, male and female.
The latter showed greater interest as a
rule, than the men. The greatest activity
was displayed by the prohibitionist party
which demands the total prohibition of al
coholie drink in the towns, 1t being already
forbidden in the villages. Their leaders,
Matti Helenius and his wife, ALI Trug sue
ceeded in having their candidates included
IN the lists of almost all the parties par
ticipating in the elections. The most IA
vored prohibitionist candidate seems to be
the schoomistreSs of Ekenes-Edwiga Sol
berg. The social democratic party had
among it's female candidates a house
maid and another working woman. The
editor of popular paper Nine Elene Wer-
termark, was put up as candidate by the
Swedish party.
How strong the interest aroused by
these unique elections is seen I'm the fact
that from rs to 80 per cent of the voters
have used their, voting right. There will be
200 deputies in the new diet.

Japanese Children Are obedient

The instinct of obedience seems to be In
nate in japanese children. When they are
told that the first Monday Of September
or whatever date their school year may be-
gin--has arrived, and that they must make
ready for school, they never pout or cry or
protest or say they hate school and would
rather stay at home and play; instead. they
smile and say,'Yes, my most honorable
parent, 1 am ready" AS a rule, Japanese
children love their teachers, and obedience
is no hardship. In the last half century,
however, European methods have obtained
in the capital and all the treaty ports, and
one sometimes hears conversations that
are not in the least japanese.

Professional Pessimism.
From the Chicago Tribune.

The actors who solemnly advise young
men and women to keep off the stage. the
lawyers who speak discouraglngly Of the
laws delays, the writer's who decry their
own professionally are wasting their time
and adding nothing to their own reputa-
tons The general croaker Is a pessimist

Republicans in Good Shape.

The meeting of the republican state CEN
trail committee here during the week devel-
oped one fact, and that is that the party
will nominate the strongest man to head
the ticket this fall. There was much gos-
sip in the lobby of the Rennert during the
meeting, and the most-mentioned men were
John Writ Randall of Annapolis, Phillips
Lee Goldsborough Of Dorchester Repre-
sentative George A. Pearre and George R.
Gather of this city. Among the shrewdest
and most far-seeing republicans Mr.. Ran
dali had the first call If the aim is to unite
the party. They claim that Randall is not
and never has been identified with any
faction in the party; that his personal and
public record Is above attack and that he
would take up no mans fight for the
United States Senate.
There is little room for doubt that the
republicans in the city will work in har-
mony for the state ticket next November.
Stone in Control.
OF course, former Representative Wachter
is regarded as ag'in the organization, but
calm and unbiased review of the condi-
lions in Baltimore show conclusively that
Wachter is not strong enough to control a
corporars guard Collector of the Port
Stone is in absolute control of the city
machinery, and Wachter must in the flu
ture be regular or else become nonentity
in the politics Of the city. He has only
small following of what may be called the
socialist republicans, and it can be asserted
that he cannot control even these few hun
dreds All Wachter has left of the ma
chine that downed the organization four
years ago are his personal friends. The
others who rallied around his banner have
realized since the mayoralty campaign that
Wachter has nothing to offer; that he is
absolutely shorn of power in city politics
and at the best can only hope to be allowed
to work in the ranks of the party where he
was once a powerful leader. ]. NJ. D.

Tennessee Is Democratic.

Tennessee is democratic, but the people
are watching the fight between these young
champions as they have never watched
contest before. Backing Patterson Is the
democratic state organization, or the official
family Backing Carmack are the old
politicians the young who preferred him
to Bob Taylor and the temperance element
of the state.
The seat of the present Senator, James
B. Frazier, is the goal, for 1T is conceded
that Bob Taylor will remain there until
he retires or dies Lined up for Patterson,
or more properly speaking. lined up against
Carmack, are ex-Gov. Benton Mcmillan and
the present Sanator, Bob Taylor. Lined up
for Carmack is former Gov. John l. Cox
and Luke Lea, whose debut into state poll
tics last year was the most forceful Ten
nessee has ever known. While Patterson
and Carmack may be candidates for the
Office of governor, they will also be candi-
dates for the office of United States Sena-
tor. Those who know the two men are
convinced that there will be no end to the
war between them until one Of them leaves
life'S stage.

Resume Sunday Excursions.

For many years the railroads from this
city to the seashore have been operating
Sunday excursion trains. The trains have
always proven popular and have been
largely patronized by that class of persons
who can i'll afford to lose day from their
work Families often go down and spend
the day. making several trips during the
heated term. The ministers of the city pc
titioned against the Sunday excursion and
the railroads discontinued them this year
especially when the jamestown exposition
was on and it was believed that the roads
would have all they could do to handle the
crowds. The attendance has not been so
large as to Inconvenience the railroads as
yet and 1t Is now announced that they will
return to the Sunday outings at an early
date
The remarkable weather for the last sixty
days is causing some uneasiness in this
section. The weather has been cold and
wholly unsuited to growing crops. Reports
from the tobacco section say that the last
stand put out was killed by the frost, and
that there are now few plants with which
to try to make another planting. Corn and
other crops are also later than usual, while
the safety of the wheat crop is more or less
uncertain The wheat is not maturing,
though the season is near at hand for the
harvest.

Carmack a National Figure.

Carmack Nat1onal c1SuTe.
Carmack Is a national figure, while Pat
terson's reputation is largely confined to
his state But Mr.. Patterson has pre-
vented the return of Mr.. Carmack to the
Senate and his relentless pursuit has not
ended On the other hand, Carmack Is
now being groomed by his friends for the
gubernatorial race. No one believes that
Mr.. Carmack wants to be governor. But
there is no sacrifice he would not make to
humiliate Patterson, SO If no other candl-
date can defeat him Carmack will make
the race himself. Patterson has his eye on
the senatorial toga, a thing Carmack covets.
He has sat three terms in his honored
fathers seat from the tenth district and
would go higher. AS between these two
men, it is anything to destroy each other.
The party leaders are divided between
them. Their methods in politics are SINH
lar Each is a man of supreme courage
Patterson is the most astute politician,
Carmack is the most plausible orator. Car
mack is fluent, eloquent and ready, and
liable to make statements he may regret;
Patterson goes before the, people cool and
prepared. He is aggressive and never re-

Cleaning Out Jails.
Sheriffs and sergeants In the state are
much concerned over the possible action of
the next general assembly. These officers
now get good sum for caring for the
prisoners. The more men sent to the roads
from the jails the less the revenues of the
officers. The movement now on foot is to
have the laws SO amended that all men sent
to prison for less than five years are to go
to the roads. The law is to be made en-
phatic, the courts to have no option in the
matter. The jailers and others Interested
are antagonstic to this scheme, and the
disposition of the subject in the general as
sembly will be one that will draw big
crowds and create feeling. The people of
the state are beginning to realize that by
putting the convicts on the roads they get
the benefits and do not have to pay for
keeping a lot of loafers during the winter
months in comfortable quarters and with
abundance of food
The amount of building now going on
here is greater than it has been for some
time. The character of the buildings is in
dcative Of the prosperity and general prog
reSs of the city. Real estate is high and
the owners of city lots are adding to- their
holding whenever opportunity offers There
are a great many handsome homes under
contract at this time, and there would be
many more but for the scarcity of labor
and the excessively high prices for mate
rails. Not only are materials high, but it
is impossible to get contracts for brick
stone and lumber filled on time. The con-
tractors have about all they can do. while
artisans of all callings are having jobs
opened to them almost daily. There are
practically no mechanics worthy the name
who have not the refusal of places al any
