WHERE WOMEN HELP RULE.

WHERE WOMEN HELP RULE.
Women not only vote in Finland, but
they hold office-and Finland and Den,
yer are held up as shining examples OF
progress by the suffragette.
The Finland diet has grown so used
to its women members that their pres
ence has ceased to become a novelty
and one scarcely ever hears the recog-
milton of women there. referred to in the
dispatches.
In 1906 women were adiudged to be
as eligible to represent their localities in
legislative assemblies as men and two
years ago there were more women vot-
ers than men. Finland is not a very
large province and the vote stood,
women 1850 and men, 1876.
Here was a splendid chance for fem
ininity to depose Insecurity. Women
might have deposed men and made
them outcasts and social Ishmaelites.
They might have passed to the "sterner
SEX little of the treatment accorded
them since the days the cave man cap
tured his bride by the hair of her head
and dragged her to his cave.
But did the women do it? No. The
majority of the women voted for the
man candidate. After the smoke of
battle cleared away the feminine
strength of the chamber was only one
tenth.
In spite of this apparent weakness
Of the skirted minority the women
were extremely active They fathered
or rather ''mothered" many bills.
There were three different bills for
the abolition of the guardianship of the
husband over his wife, and a new wom-
ans property act; one for more rights
Of mothers over their children; four for
raising the age of protection of girls:
two for raising the age of legal mar
riage for women from Is to II or 10:
four in regard to the legal status of il
legitimate children; two petitions for
more extensive employment OF women
in state service; for a state subsidy in
behalf of schools for domestic training.
for an annual subsidy of 10000 marks
Tor temperance; for obliging municip-
alities to appoint a midwife in each
parish; for an amendment of tha ara
graph Of the Agrarian law which stip-
ulates that sale of an estate annihilates
all lease contracts; for encouragement
and extension Of education; for
abolition of the law on domestic serv
ice; for the construction OF a specified
railway; for the establishment of a ma
ternity insurance fund; for the ap-
pointment of women as sanitary in
spectors, for amendment of the law on
litigation in so far as women shall be
granted the same rights as men in re-
gard to legal assistance; for subven-
lions to the distribution of free meals
to school children; for pardoning the
Firms that took part in the Sveaborg
revolt; for the abolition of disciplinary
punishments in prisons; for making it
a penal offense to insult a woman on
the public roads or in any other pub
lie place.
Only three Of these became laws.

Mandan Pioneer: Republicans in
North Dakota are congratulating them
selves on the fact that as result Of
the outcome of the primaries where the
honors were fairly divided between the
two factions there is most excel
lent feeling and the brightest prospects
for the party presenting an united
front at the polls next November
Well, why not? Any other course
would pronounce the doom of party
politics. 1t is true that in the heat
OF q primary campaign often it occurs
that the weakness or failing of some
candidate is magnifed, but when the
campaign is over and the people get
down to a sober analysis 1t is usually
discovered that the case has been over
drawn more for the purpose Of en-
phasizing the good qualities of the OPP
ponent. SO far as The Pioneer is able
to judge, the nominees on the state
and county tickets, irrespective of
their afff1iation with this or that fac
ton, all are capable, clean men, men
on whom the party can honestly unite
and give their most loyal support.
With this united front there will be no
possibility of the defeat of a republi-
can candidate for governor, or any
other state officer, and so far as Nor
ton county is concerned, no loop hole
for one or another party to break into
the local offices.

N. D. POLITICAL GOSSIP

Glen Ullin Leader: With the ticket
so evenly divided between stalwarts
and progressives there can be no rea-
sonable excuse for any republican to
scratch his ticket. Vote it straight.
Bowman Pioneer: James A. Blu
chanan, the candidate for the republic
can nomination for governor who was
defeated by G. A. Johnson has come
out like a man and informed the win
ner that he is with him and would
do all in his power to aid in his cleo
ton. If all the followers of Mr.. Blu
chanan are as manly in this matter
as he has been, this republican state
win not long be burdened with a
democratic governor.

Face The Issue Like Men.


Men, don't try to dodge the issue and
hide behind increased taxation or nom
enforcement or any other sophistry
that the liquor men may bring to bear
upon you. They do not know nor do
they care whether these things will
prove true or no. Their only reason
for pressing these objections is to in
duce you to continue to uphold their
nefaTious business. Don't be fooled.
You are going to vote for the holiest
Institution on earth, The American
Home, next Monday or you are going
to vote to uphold the hell holes and
death traps set all over this county to
ensnare our boys and our girls.
We have no party politics to hide be-
hind on this occasion. The question
is single one and we are to answer it
as such next Monday. If you believe
that the open saloon makes for
righteousness in the community, that it
tends to increase the comfort and hap
piness of the wives and the mothers
and the helpless children of the homes
where It's influence reaches and that it
helps our young people to grow into a
purity and perfection of manhood and
womanhood, vote for it. On the other
hand, if you know that its natural eff
fects are just the opposite, in the name
of just God, how can you vote for ii ?

Boozers Not Wanted.

The entire railroad system controlled
by James j. Hill has just issued an
anti-drinking order which reads as
follows: ave do not wish to have i'm
our employ men who drink liquor. Do
not employ drinking men. If men
now working under you drink, tell them
they must stop or make way for men
who will not drink" The order is the
result of the investigation of a number
of mishaps on these roads, where it has
been discovered that the loss Of proper
ty, life and limb has been the result of
drinking by employees.
The same rule is the order with near
ly all large employing concerns The
man who monkeys with rum is not in
demand in any profession or trade
The young man who is foolish enough
to indulge in strong drink will very
soon find that there is no place for him
where reliability and good sound judge
ment is required. Not only this but
the saloon proprietors in advertising
for men to tend bar insist that they be
not boozers.

TRAVELLING BY MOTORCYCLE
Boston Post)

The most novel and ultra-American
method OF seeing Europe, except pos
sibly that of soaring from sight in an
airship, is that of travelling upon the
motorcycle, method advocated by
the Rev. William G. Tousey, professor
of the philosophy of theism in the
Crane Divinity School of Tufts Col.
lege, who is himself planning a cycle
tour of Europe this summer.
Doctor Tousey is the leader of the
sport of motorcycling at Tufts, and
claims for himself the privilege of be-
ing about the only college professor
and professor of divinity at that
who is willing to risk his dignity to
the extent of scurrying about the
country and the campus on motor
bike.
The Rev. DR.. Tousey is to be ac-
companied upon his motorcycle tour
in Europe by several of the Tufts stu
dents, and plans for the trip are near
ing completion, for the start is to be
made soon after commencement.
"a year or so ago." says the divini-
ty professor, 81 travelled extensively
through Europe on bicycle, and
found 1t not only to be convenient
means of locomotion, but an excellent
way to see the country. 1t is possible
to cover a good deal of ground on a
bicycle in the course of a summers
vacation, and to view many sights
which are denied to the traveller by
train. But for man at my time of
life 1t is pretty strenuous work.
"By travelling with motorcycle it
ought to be possible for a man to
cover 100 miles or so-about 165 kilo-
meters, as they would reckon the dis
tance there-without having to rush
through too fast"

QUEER BET ON Two-HoRsE RACE
New York World)

When there are only two horses in
a race one of them, barring accident,
Is certain to run second, isn't he? So
the bet Clarence Foote made with
Harry Abrahamson at the Sheephead
Bay race track yesterday is the more
freakish and remarkable.
Ballot and King James were to be
the only starters in the Advance
Stakes. Mr.. Foote, who had started
his turf career two years ago with
$500 capital and has run it up to Sat-
900 by betting on odds-on favorites,
went among the memory brokers'
there are no book makers nowadays
asking:
What are the odds that King
James does not run as good as Sec
ond?"
If King James had dropped dead in
the race or been hurt so badly that
he could not finish it, or been dis
qualified for foul or for returning to
the scales short of the weight he was
supposed to carry, there would have
been only one horse in the race in ef-
feet. So the brokers Knocked Foote--
gave him the merry ha ha, to be
slangy.
No so Abrahamson, who takes life
and bets so seriously that he is known
familiarly as GLOOMY Gus"
"The odds are / to 1,OOO," said Abra-
hanson to Foote.
"I'll go, you. I'll bet you $1,000 to
ST." returned Foote
You're on" said the gloomy one.
Ballot won. King James was sec.
ond. Mr.. Foote won 81.

OUR NEW TYPE OF WOMEN

(Joseph Burtt, of London, in Leslie's)
America is producing a new type of
woman, who has the learning of a
Questioning, but who has lost moth
ing of the womanly tenderness of an
EARLIER generation; and she seems ca
pable of taking her religion in an. alb.
stract form, without the use of SYM
bols--a thing hitherto unknown to her
sex. And, combined with wide in
tellectual outlook and true womanli-
ness, she has the passion for righ-
teousness that one finds in the ear
nest religious set of narrower
school. This brings me to some cur
ious phenomena that are now present
ing themselves in the religious life OF
America. Christianity-the belief in
Jesus as the Son of Gods passing
openly and publicly. Heads of schools
and colleges do not hesitate to an
nounce views that in England would
ruin them as the guides of youth
Many of the churches are places OF
improving entertainment, where the
duty of man to man takes the place
of the duty of man to his God. Theolo
gy no longer appeals to the masses In
England, but in America it has chang
ed it's character and "Thou shalt love
thy neighbor or thyself" is becoming
the whole duty of man.

AARMoN's PLEDGE TO
THE I

THE PEOPLE
One of the bright gems of Governor
Harmon's speech of acceptance is the
Following:
"A chief magistrate does not serve
the people who uses the power en-
trusted him to advance his own or
any other than the public interest, or
fails to use 1t to safeguard the gener-
al welfare whenever it is endangered
by neglect, incompetence, wrong
doing, or the passage of unwise or un-
constitutional laws"
The people of Ohio, whatever their
politics, know that Judson Harmon
has earnestly and conscentiously en-
deavored in the governors Office to
fulfill all these requirements. If he
had not succeeded entirely in all re-
he has been Obliged to contend
against adverse circumstances not of
his own making nor choosing. AS
he also said in his address to the
convention, "the renewal of conf
dence, 30 heartily expressed today,
assures me that you believe | have
kept the faith and done the best |
could to live and act 1t, under condi-
tlons naturally difficult and made
more so by policy of persistent OBJ
struction which was seldom relaxed"
That policy of persistent obstruc-
tion" Is also well known to the voters
of Ohio, and will be removed entirely
at the polls this year by the election
of a legislature with Democratic
majority In both branches not In
one branch only, but in both
branches, because If one branch were
hostile II would keep UP this policy
of persistent obstruction" no matter
what the other branch might do to
give the governor loyal support,
II Is because the people OF Ohio
thoroughly understand all these con
.ditions and circumstances that they
have abiding faith in this pledge
made by Judson Harmon In accept
ing his denominations 81 shall keep
on trying to make the phrase serv-
ing the people true description and
not false pretense or figure of
speech"
Having the proof of experience in
one term before them, the people of
Ohio know that Governor Harmon
spoke very truly and sincerely, and
they will take him at his word with
full assurance that they can depend
upon the fulhllment of that pledge
II they give him another term

VERY WRY FACES

Wade Ellis probably thought he got
off pretty witty remark when he
said, "the Republicans have been
making history and the Democrats
making faces" but 1t will hardly do
for campaign slogan.
No body ever made such faces as
Republican voters of Ohio made when
President Taft named Ellis receiver of
the Republican party in Ohio. That
was the case of making history" and
making faces" in which Democrats
took no part, but they enjoyed it as
.onlookers just .the same.
