Wasn't Lost.

One of the interesting episodes of
the trip of the editors through South
east Missouri yesterday was the
solicitude of some of the members
concerning Mr.. Rouse, editor of the
Monroe City Democrat. They be-
lieved he was lost. But some re-
allied he had been away from
home before, and the fact that
some of the damsels of Morehouse
had cast shy glances at the man
who had left his wife at home nat
urally concluded he had been left
at Morehouse About the time the
train reached Sikeston, Rouse came
to light. No one knew where he
had been and the questions that
poured in on the poor fellow were
exasperating. But never a word
came from Rouse. He gave them
no satisfaction as TO whether ne
had been riding the trucks or had
been forced by circumstances to
occupy a cot in the baggage car.
The Monroe City man when last we
saw him, was racking his brain in
the attempt to fix up a story" that
would clear him of all suspicion
and would satisfy the folks at home.
Be it said to the credit of Rouse, he
is a man of strictly proper habits, a
fact that no doubt will make it
easy for him to render a satisfacto-
ry account of himself. Cape Girar-

PHARAOH, NAPOLEON, DIX.

How did man of Mr.. Littleton' s
acuteness come to offer suggestion
so inadequate as that Oyster Bays
name should be changed to Blue
Point? The great superiority OF
Little Neck in any change in desig-
nation due to post-election incidents
is most obvious. Destiny couldn't
permit the silence of the town long
to continue, but it has been clam
like for many, many hours.
Why didn't someone think before
Of an election defeat as a means
of inducing wonders along the Long
Island shore? The unsupported ef-
ficiency' of this potential agency In
substituting voicelessness and quiet
for clamor having now been dis
covered, its employment for the
same gratifying end in the future
will unquestionably become more
and more frequent.

al. Roosevelt may keep up the

leadership must necessarily be badly
crimpled by the disastrous record of

"Perhaps the men the democrats
have elected are the best, possibly
the are not" says the Thompson
Courier. "At any rate, the old
lesson has been taught again to the
plutocratic leaders that the people
will vote the other way when driven
to it, no matter what that other way
is. They know'no other method than
to knock the party which fails to
make good. Like the fellow who

WHO VOTED FOR PORTER:

Governor Carroll has been re-
elected to his second term as govern
or of Iowa but his plurality OF 6O,-
900 of two years ago over demo-
cratic opponent has been cut down
to 10000. While other republic
can candidates on the same ticket
have nearly $4,000 pluralities to
their credit. Considering that many
thousands of republicans voted for
Mr.. Carroll in spite of an intense
dislike for him but solely IN order
to be loyal to their party ticket
this election has clearly demonstrate
ed that he is not the choice OF Iowa
for governor but that republican
administration is preferred to DEM
ocratic administration in this state
in spite OF candidates. And the re-
suit read in that light is satlsfac-
tory to the greatest number. Porter
the democratic candidate, deserved
nothing, personally, more than Car
roll. Had Judson Harmon, of Ohio,
or Woodrow Wilson, of New Jersey,
been running for governor in Iowa,
the plurality would have been larger
than 10000 and it would have been
credited to the democratic ticket.
Two things and two only saved Car
roll; first the desire of progressive
republicans to remain loyal and
have no blood of republican candi-
date on their hands and secondly,
the weakness of the democratic can
didate, platform and leadership in
this state.
That the progressive republicans
remained loyal in spite of their
justified dissatisfaction with the re-
publican candidate although denied

ANOTHEU, STATE WON OVER.

Two years hence the women of
the state of Washington will have
the right to vote for president. They
will no longer view with envy their
sisters in Idaho, Colorado, Utah,
and Wyoming There is now a con-
tinuance of the. suffrage territory
stretching from the western bound
airy of Nebraska to the shores OF the
Pacific.
While the equal suffragists won
an easy victory in Washington, they
were defeated in the neighboring
state of Oregon What was worse,
the majorities against them was
greater than on previous occasions.
There must be some good reason
for this marked difference in senti-
ment, but it is not apparent at this
distance. The citizens of both states
have accepted with readiness new
ideas and adopted new political
methods. In many particulars Ore
gon has been the more advanced. 1t
has succeeded through the initiative
and referendum and in other ways
in getting close to direct govern
ment by the people. It abolished
government Ny IuC UOSSCS AOA LAC
Interests" several years ago, and
the voters do not mean to let it be
reestablished. 1t may be that the
men of Oregon, having shown their
ability to manage affairs so well,
do not think they need the services
of the women. The progressives of
Washington-the sweeping victory
of Miles ,Poindexter shows how radi-
cally progressive they are-may be-
lieve the women would be valuable
helpers.
How long will Oregon stand out?
Woman suffrage states now bound it
on the north and east, and they will
undoubtedly exert considerable in
fluence on their stubborn neighbor.
But while woman suffrage has gain
ed ground in the northwest, it has
met with a !repulse in the south
west. The constitutional conven-
ton of New Mexico has decided that
men alone shall vote. Probably the
equal suffragists will not be great
ly disappointed. They could not
have expected victory there.
