who was disbarred from practice as
an attorney after primary nomina-

six years practice at law.
He relates that the court issued the
order of disbarment under a misap-

ularly to two qualifcations-good
moral character and proper educa-
ton.

fering and financial losses as punish
ment enough, and makes his plea as
man to man." He asks charity and
mercy, and states the court would
never have reason to regret should

Woman's Influence.

Fort Dodge Post: The Post is not
quite ready to say it is for woman
suffrage but it is fully ready to say
that If the vote OF the good women of
the land will not make FOR civic right
eousness, then is civil government
hopelessly lost. We have always felt
that the whole duty of woman in
politics was confined to her infuenc e
on the men folk about her. If the
time ever comes when the wife, the
sister, the daughter or the sweetheart
good, then the women will have to
take up the ballot to make clear the
path of civic righteousness This is
the hopeful work that is set before
the vast organizations of women $
clubs now spreading all over the
country. Let them study domestic
science, and literature, and even poll
tics, because these things make for
broader visions of life, and no life is
ever nobler or higher than it's visions.
If more men had visions civic right
eOusness would never need to call in
to the arena the refining Influences of
woman. When men cease to dream
and lay hold only on those tangible
things we call wealth because things
we call wealth because things pander
to our baser selves. righteousness is
ripe for the cere and yellow leaf, the
mold that precedes decay has aIready
set in.
