WoMEN's VOTES PRICED.

The statue extending the franchise
to New Zealand women was passed
in 1893. Since then there have been
six parliaments elected by the joint
votes of the men end women of New
Zealand. In all of these elections,
says the North American Review, the
women of the country have taken
their full share.
The proportion of women who
voted at each election compared with
those whose names were on the rolls
have been almost exactly the same as
that of the male voters. There are
not at present i'm New Zealand as
many women as men, and the actual
voting power of the women is nearly
10 per cent less than that of the
men. Practically, however, all who
can do SO vote at each election.
The fears expressed at the time
the franchise was given them that
the result would be either that the
women would vote just as their hus-
bands and fathers told them to vote.
or that the new privilege would mean
dissesion in families and the practical
degradation of the women, have not
been justified by the experience
The women of New Zealand vote
at elections as a matter of course,
just as they partake of their meals
or do any other ordinary duty of

that what may be called political
questions have become matters Of
general interest of being as formerly

To be outside the sphere of one-half

In the matter of the extended fran

but practical experience, that won
the day. 1t was not because women
were human beings as much as men;
it was not even because they were
Intelligent human being to whom men
were ready to entrust thecare of their
homes and families; it was because

A BoYHooD RECOLLECTION.

Remember the old swimmin' hole?
These hot, midsummer days bring the
picture back with all its delightful col
orings. says the Boston Traveller 1t
was down by the river or creek-we
called it a "crick"- then-and here
and there were low-hanging elms over
the bank, under whose roots a boy
could almost hide. Most Of it was
hardly more than waist deep, although
over at one end it was most five feet,
and unless you were an awfully big
boy the water was over your head. You
could take as many as five swimming
strokes without being able to touch the
bottom once.
That water would hardly tempe you
now; the board of health would be
likely to condemn it. 1t was not ex-
actly limpid-but oh! how inviting it
was!
Pity the poor unfortunate lad who
had to wear shoes and stockings in
those days. How he did envy the boys
whose toilet consisted in getting in or
out of two garments-shirt and over
alls! You assembled at that mystic
sign of two fingers and hurried to the
pool There was a mad haste to get
out of your clothes and an unwilling
ness to come out of the water even
If it was long after supper time. Often
you were half dressed when some more
boys arrived, whereupon you promptly
stripped again and went in with them.
Sanitary? Lord, no! But what fun

DEMOCRATS TODAY
IN CONVENTION
A Wealth of Material From Which
to Select Candidates.

The democratic county convention
for the naming of nine candidates for
delegates to the constitutional con-
vention will be held today at the
Third Avenue theater The conven-
ton will be called to order at 10
o'clock and after the usual prelim-
mary organization an adjournment
will be taken until the afternoon,
when a platform will be presented.
The platform making itself ought
not to consume a great deal OF time
for it is said to be already reposing
in the desk of a prominent ln.mDer
of the convention. The nature of it
has not been disclosed, but it is said
to contain strong recognition of the
principle of the initiative and refer
endum. The candidates for delegate
will be expected to stand on that
platform, but it is given out that it
is not as pronounced as the advocates
of the so-called Oregon plan" would
desire.
1t may be said that no slate has
been agreed upon. Some fifteen
prominent democrats have been sug-
gested for candidates. including Judge
c. NJ lander, Rev. Mr.. Crutchfield,
NJ J. Dougherty. c. S. Stapley, d. T.
Jones, b. b. Mouer. Warren Peterson,
J. II. lie Seuer. Lin B. Orme, Henry
Welborn, Sidney Osborn and w. 7.
Smith.
Yesterday movement was started
by some of the delegates, notably
members OF the Osborn delegation, in
favor of f. A Jones, but n question
was raised as to the politics of Mr..
Jones. 1t had generally been under
stood that he was a republican, and
attention was called to the fact that
less than two years ago he sought
az appoirti'cnt from a rep lEliean
governor as a member of the Arizona
railway commission.
His sponsors, hawever. stated that
Mr.. Jones was a democrat, though he
had not been so loud and insistent as
to attract attention.

TEACHING BOYS BANKING.

"A real boys bank was opened on
January 1, 1910, in New York City.
under the general guidance Of the
teachers of public school No. Il, and
its deposits, which already amount
to more than two hundred dollars
represent the savings of 23O depos-
itors Every one Of these depositors
is being taught the lesson of thrift
and is getting an accurate knowledge
of common commercial methods,
while the officers and directors of
the little bank are securing a most
valuable insight into the way in
which the business of banking should
be conducted.
A visit to the school in banking
hours, which are from 3 to 3:45
o'clock every school day, shows an
animated scene. The bank is in
cramped quarters. but what of that!
1t was planned and fitted up by the
boys themselves, and that means
more to them than marble and ma
hogany and spacious ceilings. The
grated windows are there, and lit
tie shelf with blank deposit slips
scattered generously about. Behind
the gratings are the tellers and cash
Ter, attentive with business-like mien

of the little public space is door
marked "Private"-the presidents Of

adding machine that has just been
presented to the school, the files in
applepie order. and the nook for the
new safe that is now on the way.
In conspicuous array between the
grated windows are neatly lettered
and appropriate notices. which the
boys themselves composed and ar
ranged--"By saving something every
week you begin each week richer;
Time is money. and one should be
saved as we'll as the other; mon
