STATE, SHOULD SUPPORT
WIDOWS AND ORPHANS

st. Paul, Minn.-"State support of
widows, their children and orphans
is inevitable and such a system is the
only solution of the Juvenile question.
1t will come during the present gen.
eration."
This was the prediction made by
Judge Lindsey of Denver while here
on his way to Crookston. "Under
present conditions" the judge con-
tinued, "the number of children COM
ing into our courts will never be de-
creased. During the last juvenile
generation-that is, IS years-over
100000 children have come into
our courts. We must change the
environment of the child.
During the last Juvenile genera
ton $4,000 orrShans have been created
by such accidents as the Cherry mine
disaster These conditions appall hu-
manity
widows, forced breadwinners, neg
lect their children, who congregate in
bad company. We cannot do away
with fatherless children, but We can
take care of them. widows should
be state charges. Private charity is
doing what is absolutely the duty of
the state"

COLLEGE GIRLS WILL
ASK DEPARTMENT TO ACT

New York. - A declaration of col

College Equal Suffrage league, is ar
ranging to go to Washington to pre-
sent to the senate department a reso-
luton calling for the interference of
this government in the Imprisonment
in England of Miss Paul, the Ameri.

the banquet of the Lord Mayor of
London. Miss Paul is a militant suf-
fragette and is serving a 80 day sem

Mrs. Harriet Stanton Blach, leader
of the suffragettes in this country has
caused a resolution to be adopted by
several associations of women in this
country. She contends that Miss
Paul threw the stone as matter Of
political policy and that she should
therefore be treated as a political

SEAL ESCAPES AND
DEVOURS FISH IN LAKE,

Seattle. = Park Superintendent ].
W. Thompson is busy devising
schemes to recapture "Bismark," the
large hair seal which escaped from
Woodland park last week and made
its way into Green lake. At first the
people living along the shores of the
lake were greatly amused at the an
tics of the seal which has been dis
porting itself in the water, but they
soon demanded it's removal when they
found that it was eating all the fish
in the lake. They appealed to lame
Warden Harry Rief and asked that
he compel the park authorities to re-
capture the animal. Park Superin-
tendent Thompson says that he has
made every effort to ensnare the seal,
but thus far has been unsuccessful
He believes that after the seal has
fattened on the fish in the lake it will
become fat and lazy and will be easy
to capture
"Bismark" is one of the three hair
seals that formed part Of the United
States fisheries exhibit at the Alaska
Yukon-Paclfic exposition. After the
close of the fair the government pre-
sented the seals to the park board
and they were placed in a pen in
woodland park. The big seal man
aged to get out Of the enclosure and
made it's way to the lake wherc it
has been reducing the number Of fish
in an alarming manner.

EDITOR DIRECTS HIS
PAPER FROM JAIL

Mount Carmel, Ill.-Ora F. Havill,
editor of a newspaper published here,
spent his Thanksgiving day in Jail,
but he is still editing.
HE is not downcast. With a de-
fiant blue pencil he wrote the prin-
cipal headlines which appeared on
the first page of his paper on that
day.
'Havill in the coop"
That is the way he feels about it.
Scorning to ask for his release on
bonds, he has chosen to serve a 60
day sentence on a charge of criminal
libel, and he has transformed his cell
into an editorial sanctum. The only
concessions made to Havill by the
jailer are a table on which to edit his
paper, and visits from reporters, sub
editors and copy boys.

STE|NHE|L CASE
REv|vES ANOTHER
FAMOUS SToRA CASE
is CALLED TO LIGHT
With Recent Trial of 'Red Widow
Ii Proves Criticisms of French Ju-
dicial Procedurc-Stora Killed His
Mistress Who Subjected Him 30
Indignities. I

London.-Lawyers all over the
world have been discussing the Stein
he'll case, recently concluded in Paris,
and have made it a text for vigorous
criticisms of French judicial pro-
cedure. Much more remarkable than
that famous case, however, was the
recent trial of man named Stora,
in the Seine assize court. Stora kill
ed his Mistress Mile. Muguet, a mu-
sic hall dancer. At the trial he did
not deny the commission OF the crime
nor was it alleged he was insane. The
counsel for the defense urged, as an
extenuation, that Stora had spent
large sums on the woman, and that
she had treated him in an inconsid-
crate manner, and finally repulsed
him. For this he shot and killed
her. As this was the first time he
had ever murdered anyone, and as
the court considered that the victim
had been inconsiderate of Stora' s
feelings, he was mercifully acquitted.
According to Stora's story on the
fatal day, February II, Stora escorted
his mistress TO a boulevard cafe fire.
quented by artists in quest of an en-
gagement. Stay here at the door
and wait for me-" she said as she went
in, leaving the unlucky man with her
dog out in the bitter cold. Hours
rolled by, and there he stood like an
unrelieved sentry. Meanwhile, Mu-
guet, was chatting gaily with friends
in the warm cafe, and making fun Of
her lover as he shivered in the cold
outside; but no one joined in her
merriment, for they all pitied him.
At last she condescended to join
Stora, who took her off to dinner at
a restaurant. AS they passed bv a
flower stall he bought her a bouquet
of yiolets, and she threw it in his face.
Even when they had returned to her
abode. Muguet kept on taunting him.
emarting under these indignities
from his mistress, Stora secured re-
volver and shot her. Former lovers
of the woman were called as witness
es, and all declared that Muguet had
a very disagreeable temper. One of
the witnesses declared that the only
way he could reduce her to submis-
sion was by shooting at her, although,
he said, he was always careful to
miss After hearing the evidence, the
court commented: when a man has
a mistress who is not agreeable, it is
better to leave her than to kill her
This philosophic reflection as to the
ethics of Illicit love affairs, however
did not prevent the court returning g
verdict of acquittal, allowing the de-
fendant the benefit of "the first Of
tenders act' 1t is presumed thai
should Stora kill another mistress
he might be slapped on the wrist.

 may be brought forward. A state might have In 1t one city and cousty with votes enough fs control the pri. mary and thus keep both. Senators to the one county without chance of re- lief. That, also, would be virtual and practical departure frsn, the inten. tions of those who, founded the gov ernmsnt. Our contention Is that the Senators should be chosen in the man. ner provided by the Federal Consti- tuition. The only departure we would consider proper would be that each county might instruct it's representa- tiyes, and each senatorial district might instruct it's Senator as to whom they should vote for when the time came for the formal vote in the two houses. This would be but a slight departure from the original mode, and would still leave the election to the Legislature as originally intended. In short, and finally. we are opposed to the plan of choosing United States Senators by primary elections.
