Des Moines, Ia, has been governed

Des Moines, Ia, has been governed
under "a new system since early in
April. The government is not divided
into legislative and executive branch
es, as is common in most American
cities. The executive and legislative
officers are the same. There are
mayor and four councilmen, each of
whom is the head of an executive de.
partment- That which the mayor
controls is called the department OF
public affairs. The mayor and council
men meet together as legislature
and pass ordinances. The will OF any
three prevails. The mayor receives
$4,000 a year, and each of the council
men $4,000. 1t IL maintained by the
supporters Of the law that the salaries
are large enough TO attract capable
citizens to ONCE. While considerable
legislative power is vested in the
elected officers, they are kept from dis
regarding the popular will by pro
vision which compels them either to
pass any ordinance submitted to them
by petition signed by certain pro
portion of the voters, or to submit 1t
TO the general public at 4 special elec-
ton. A slightly different system Of
city government has been in operation
in Texas in the cities OF Galveston
Houston, Dallas and Fort Worth
where It is said public affairs are now
managed honestly. even II there has
been no gain In economy.

A High Philosophy.

Few women have the tall mans

TO mere scrambling ants, whose pur-
pose in life is TO live-neither more
nor less Diamonds and velvets, rags

and climbing up and down is seen to
rule all alike-a strange passion, capa-

the works of mans hands as al once

structures rise in the air there vast
tunnels are being bored, and there
again hundreds OF men are filling in

Unbe6tting Work for
Women
BY C. C. MATTHEWS.

Travellers in Europe frequently women carry
ing heavy burdens or drawing great loads upon the
public highway. We are beginning to observe the
same thing occasionally, in America. Such sights
are shocking to the American sense of fitness
While women, under stress of poverty, must
work for their livelihood, and while all honor
should be given to those who cheerfully and bravely
accept abnormal conditions and bend their backs
to the wheel, society should save them from that
kind of employment which compels them to assume,
in public view the character of beasts of burden.
The spectacle that is tolerated among the European
peasantry ought not to be suffered in this country.
The fact that the women who thus abused
make no complaint has nothing to do with the
properties of the matter. In the streets of the
large cities does not have to wander far before
coming upon a woman scavenger toiling under
sack of refuse, woman cleaner of Goals and
sticks bending under the weight of pickedup fuel.
In the country districts, now and then, as the
trainpassenger is whirled past farms and gardens,
he catches a glimpse of woman holding plow
or welding a hoe. The man who contemplates
these spectacles without regret is out of place
among true Americans. His nature must be essen

tyrants flourish and where they may become the

away from her presence; he had air Of suppress
ed excitement about him. 1t was year since they
had parted on the Malta. "The fellow is almost
handsome" thought Harrisse "and he is in love
with Lucille" Miss Lindsay was engaged with a
headache, and begged DR.. Harrisse would excuse
her. The words sounded strangely to him; he
felt dazed and miserable, and angry with Dr. Johns,
as If his visit had something to do with 1t. All
at once the fact that Lucille had begun life as a
circus-rider seemed trivial and of no Importance
compared with the greater fact that he loved her.

DIR. Harrisse tossed the letter into the CRATE and

The question of woman's suffrage must be decided
upon broader and better principle than that. Tne
very fact that such suggestion is made gives oc-
casion for the admonition that society take care
lest 1t shall permit the working-women to be rated
according to muscular capabiity We don't want
to see women digging, carrying mortar, throwing
sledges, pushing wheelbarrows lifting bales, and
similar work. Great progress has been MADE IN
opening avenues for the employment OF women
but let not the time come when the sight OF
woman working for bread shall become so common
that society will neglect to distinguish between
that which she should do and that from which she
should be saved We must not grow used to see,
ing women toiling in the streets. We must not
grow used to seeing them struggling under heavy
loads We must not grow used to the men who
allow their mothers, wives and daughters to do
such work as Nature never intended. Such en-
ployment is retrogression to the savage state.
