One must rub his eyes these
days to be sure that Bryan didn't
win the last election. Here, for
instance, is President Taft's at.
torney general advising the ma
tional banks that they may in-
sure their deposits. The very
suggestion was wicked and I'm
practible less than a year ago.
True it is that Bryan proposed to
have deposits guaranteed by the
federal government, whereas the
attorney general has reference to
insurance companies. But this
convenient distinction may be re-
solved into a plutocratic differ
ence.-Chicago Public.

One of the handiest things

One can not help but notice the
great amount of civic pride being
shown in Baxter Springs this
spring. Now that sidewalks are
being built all over the city, a
great deal of parking is being
done, old fences are. being torn
down, yards are being cleaaed
up, and a general air of pride is
being manifested. And it is we'll.
Baxter Springs is just as pretty
a place, naturally, as Carthage,
but the people of that place have
shown so much civic pride and
have cleaned up their properties
so nicely that they are the talk
of the country. Baxter Springs
could have no better advertise'
ment than to keep cleaned up,
and it will result in untold good,
too.

Who Su--cr.S tie Wife7

Rev. Anna Howard Shaw and Mrs.
Charlotte Perkins Gilman had a de-
bate the other day in New York, the
question being, do husbands support
their wives?" Rev. Anna Shaw said
that they do not, but that in this
semi-civilized country in 3S of the
states the title to the children rests,
not in the mother, but in the father
Women can not legally possess their
own children nor own their clothes
The more work a woman does the less
her husband gives her. Mrs. Gilman
said that If a stenographer earning
$25 a week married an invalid and he
stayed home and, did the work while
she made the money, people would
say she supported him, and logically
the wife doing the same thing was
supported. The audience, however,
voted in favor of the proposition of
DR.. Shaw.
