Mrs H. Barton, president during the term just

Mothers, in leaving this office for another
want to ask you to forget the object of the
circle which is to make better mothers and better
homes. Always remember that home is to have the
first place in our hearts and attention AS you
go over the constitution do not make it binding
as to be upon you in conforming to it. This is
not club and such constitution would be detri-
ment.
'A1so l ask of you to be religious in your meet
ings but denomnational to be patriotic but not
partisan There is so much in common between
mothers that it is not necessary that disturbing ee
ments should be brought in"

Yn african Club.

Mrs Byrd Trego in the B1ackfoot (Idaho) Re
publican:
Away out in darkest Africa, in the colony of
Sirerra Leone is a club federation of over 1000
women The origin of this club is mythical
the early history OF the royal house OF Italy. Its
records are unwritten lore treasured in the hearts
of its members. More than that the key is turned
that their husbands get not glimpse into
its mysteries demonstrating conclusivey the fact that
can keep secret.
Their president although she does not enjoy
phOniouS title, is accredited with power that is
not only potent for women, but for which all the
Bundu men have a most wholesome regard. Though
elected to her office she is absolute ruler. This club
has entire and absolute control all women and
girls of the tribe and it wisely for their pro-
lection and education 1t has established and en-
forced the complete segregation of the sexes during
the adoescent period and while they preparing
for the duties of maternity 1t has made its
laws for marriage and divorce and enforces them
and has obtained equal rights in government.
A leading club woman, in of eastern
cities, proposed the easiest solution of
much vexed question: that cooperative home on
large scale be established where all children could
be placed to receive hyglenic scientific and profess
sional training and education by those especially
trained for that purpose The lady spent the rest of
the session explaining that she didn't mean it. and
thought herself fortunate to have paved way to
retreat even in confusion. But the Bundu club has
solved this question and practically demonstrated
for generations the wisdom of their decision.
mother who is member of the club, only
keeps her children during their babyhood Then the
girls sent to the Bundu Bush, secret encan1p-
nent in the forest where women are paid to care
for them and educate them in the domestic sciences
and the various lines of culture of the life of
anhood. The boys sent to a school of masculine
character governed much the same. The parents
pay for the keeping of their children thus giving
the mothers leisure for the duties of club
life.
The strictest secrecy is preserved regarding the
location of this female seminary. Even the mothers
do not know unless they, themselves are graduates
and any man who is foolhardy to indulge mas
culine curiosity in the matter pays the penalty with
his life This is suggestive, but have desire
to further humiliate Tennysons Princess we will
draw comparisons
The girls dress in this institution of learning is
a sort of uniform much of which is symbolic of
their standing and advancement
Occasionally there is a sort of commencement or
exhibition The public is not invited to the Bush,
but after the usual demonstration of their accomplish
ments, they are marched back to their retreat Now
they are full-fedged women and candidates for in
itiation into the club

period of hard times there is a
gradual recovery. Business i'm
proves, labor is well employed, ana
commerce becomes more active. De-
posits accumulate in the banks, and
money for mercantile purposes can
be borrowed at low rates of interest.
For a time business is conducted,
cautiously and conesrvatively. Not
many large new enterprises are
launched. AS prosperity is estab-
lished, and as the wealth of the COM
munity increases, there is an extern
sion of business, and the success
which attends the movement Justi-
fies it. But gradually confidence in
the future leads to rashneSs. Those
who have been conservative risk
more than they have been accustom-
ed to venture. This is the time
when large fortunes-sometimes on
ly fortunes Ion paper-are made
quickly. New men appear in the
markets with small capital, but with
great boldness. They speculate on
a large scale, promote magnificent
schemes, and carry them through by
means of extensive loans, and by the
attraction of apparent success draw
a multitude OF small investors into
their enterprises.
1t is only when this process of eX-
tension has gone to the point of eX-
hausting the borrowing power that
the crisis comes; and the borrowing
power is exhausted-as matter of
Colrs2-When the available capital
in the banks has all been lent. Then
some enterpriSeS-one or more
which must have more money in or
der to continue in operation find
themselves unable to borrow; or it is
discovered that the market for some
important commodity is demOraliz-
ed; or in some other way a weakness
is developed, the weakness extends
from one point to another, and
shortly there is a panic.
Those who study the course of
events which led to the serious finan-
cial trouble in New York last month
will disagree as to the immediate
cause Some will hold that it came
from political agitation, some will
attribute it to EQUALIZATION of
certain large enterprises, others to
a lack of lOanable funds in the banks
and still others to other causes. But
in this last analysis it all comes to
the same ng-overcOnfdence in
the future and investment beyond
the actual means of the investors

INDEPENDENT CANDIDATES

The status of an Independent vot-
er under the direct primary law
seems to be generally understood
he has no status. He can not enter
the primaries of either party if he
wishes to preserve his independence
But the status of an Independent
candidate seems to be more or less
perplexing. Yet the matter is Gear.
Suppose a democrat, for instance,
should be found who desires to bolt
the action of the suggestive conven-
tion of the city hall gang. Two
courses are open to him. He can
file his declaration of candidacy as
a democrat and contest the nomina
ton at the primaries of the "Sug-
gestion" of the city hall convention;
or he can become strictly independ-
ent If he selects the latter course,
it will be necessary for him to call a
convention of his friends on the day
of the primary, procure his nomina
ton as an Independent and go on the
election ticket as such.
This contingency is provided for
in section % Of the primary law,
which says:
Amy political party which at the
last preceding election cast less than
10 per cent Of the votes may nomi-
nate candidates in the manner pro-
vided by existing laws Tor cOnyen-
tons; provided, however, that all
such conventions must be held upon
the same day as the primary cleo
tons are held.
The city party, which nominated
Mayor Moore of Seattle was minor
ity party, organized several years
ago for city uses. 1t nominated at
the regular primaries because it cast
more than 10 per cent vote at the
preceding election. Had it not done
so, though, Mayor Moore might have
/ organized it, called it in convention,
! and obtained the nomination. AS
it is, he is practically running as an
independent democrat, because he
could not stand for the bosses of
his party.
The independent voter can be shut
out of the party primary as an indie
pendent, but he can not, of course,
be shut out of an election, and the
Independent candidate can never be
shut out No percentage of the yot-
ers is required for such a nominal
be sure, it woul be poor politicsvb
ing convention as he can hold.-Ta-

Wenatchee has a bunch of ordi-
nances which have been on the
books ever since the town was in
corporated. Some of these have
been changed from time to time,
some have been repealed and some
have been forgotten.
Would it not be a fine idea to have
the ordinances of the city in shape
so that The who runs may read. -
1t is probable that some of the men,
bers of the council may know some
of the laws of the city, but it is
clearly evident that there are COM
paratively few people who know
what the laws are which govern us
