No more impressive spectacle
is ever seen than that of a great
and independent nation register
ing it's unfettered will at the polls.
While this year the intensity OF
a presidential campaign was
wanting, yet the same principle
of representative government was
asserted and it was that which
gave impressiveness to the scene.
OF course the working of this
principle reveals some defects in
the machinery, but in the agita-
ton for primary elections, popu
lar election of United States sen
ators, corrupt practices acts, and
in other ways, there is seen the
determination of the voters to
get rid of defects that the machin
cry may work more smoothly to
the ultimate benefit of the nation
and It's component parts.
1t is not unlikely that many
people whose hopes were not i'm
realized at the election
may have had temporary doubts
as to the wisdom of our political
institutions, but all such doubts
speedily vanish. As a matter of
fact everyone, even in the mo-
ment of bitter defeat, gratefully
recognizes that our representa-
tive principle, even with it's inn
PROJECTIONS of working, is infin-
ltely superior to any other prin-
ciple. The imperfections are ac-
cidental and can be remedied one
by one, but the principle which
our forefathers won remains to
be ever cherished by a free people,
and it is never more cherished
han on the day and morrow of
some great political contest.

The concentration of wealt
into the hands of a few men
would be far more dangerous to
the nation than it is were it not
for the tendency for wealth to be
dissipated in generation or two.
There is a good deal of truth in
the old English saying that it is
three generations from shirt
sleeves to shirt-sleeves. " We
have had striking examples of
that in our American history, and
history will probably repeat itself
many times over,

Most people lead average lives
becausee they are average men
and women. but there is no reason
why the average itself should
not be higher. That can be
brought about not by genius but
by placing before one a higher
ideal and then striving earnestly
and intelligently to reach that
ideal. Even if the goal is not
quite reached the honest effort
put forth will have its refining
and strengthening effect.

The Boston 4 Maine railroad
in New Hamshire has decided to
no longer employ a lobby to in
fluence legislation in its behalf.
That is a decision that should
have been reached years ago, but
better late than never, and it is
one that all other roads should
make. There would be less hos
tility to railroads and less corpor-
ations in politics.

Laurel Elopers Are Forgiven

John H. Hall, so years old, and
Aida May Horseman, IA years old,
of Laurel, eloped on Monday and
went to Denton where they where
married. The parents and friends OF
the girl tried to prevent the match,
but failed. They returned to Laurel
on Tuesday and were at once ar
rested. Hall was placed in the town
lookup, which was surrounded by
mob threatening violence. The girl
was placed in the custody of the
chief of police. Finding it impos-
sible to prosecute Hall, and knowing
the child had threatened to end her
life if separated from her husband,
Mr.. and Mrs. Horseman rendered
forgiveness to the air on Wednesday
and took them to their home in the
country.

YOUNGSTERS CELEBRATE
MEXICO'S INDEPENDENCE
Five Hundred Sunday School
Children of All NationaIi-
ties Present

The Younger members of the Plaza
church Sunday school celebrated the
anniversary of MeXico's Independence
yesterday afternoon in the Fairgrounds
at the rear of the church building,
songs and dances being given during
the entire afternoon in honor of the
day.
There were fully 500 children of all
nationaIities present. The principal
feature on the informal program was
the dancing of four little girls, Doro-
thy Briggs, Grace Larieux, Lizzie Oil
vas and Juanita Larieux. They inter-
preted several of the national dances
of the southern republic with childish
grace, and their efforts were much ap-
preciated. Following the dances the
children gathered around a piano
which had been moved into the yard
and Joined in singing the Mexican ma
tional hymn and other selections and
hymns.
The Plaza Sunday school probably
bears the distinction OF being the most
cosmopolitan of any in Los Angeles.
1t has a membership OF nearly 800, Of
all nationalities.
The affair was in charge of Super
intendent Mrs. Rosana Lacoureur, AS

states were fully informed in regard
to the laws pertaining to them and
their children there would not be so
many women saying 81 have all the
rights I want" A careful study Of the
code of California would be an eye
opener to- most of them. In many re-
spects the laws of our state are greatly
in advance of those of some other
states, but they are far from being just
to women. 1t is quite a fad among
women to take up some study and form
classes among themselves which are
often more of a social nature than edu-
cational. To such women 1t is seri
ously suggested that they procure a
little book entitled california Laws
Relating to Women and Children" and
make study of it until thoroughly
| familiar with every detail. 1t will
broaden their mental horizon wonder
fully and give them an insight into
matters that may some day be of vital
Importance personally. Such study will
prepare them for the position they will
soon be called upon to take in defense
of their homes and loved ones.
In Colorado, Wyoming, Utah and
Idaho where women have full suffrage,
the following laws have been enacted
which Il would be we'll to compare with
our own laws on the same subjects:
'Wifes earnings and personal prop
erty, not received from husband, in her
sole control.
"Spouse's interest equal in each
others real estate.
Professions and all public offices
open to women.
Equality in inheritance for both
sexes.
divorce for same causes to husband
and to wife, though wife can also Sc
cure separate maintenance or divorce
for non-support
+ "Wife and minor children entitled to
homestead and to a certain allowance
out of husbands estate, which has
priority over ordinary debts.
Women privileged to make will at
Is years of age.
"Free schools from primary grade
through state university open to women.
Free text books In public schools.
Wyoming, Utah. If district so vote,
in Colorado and Idaho.)
Free kindergartens.
Jury service open to women. Utah,
Idaho. (No prohibition in wyoming
and Colorado, and women there act as
jurors.)
Compulsory education for children
under 16 years of age. with instruction
in physiology and hygiene. Wyoming,
Utah. Colorado, Idaho, under 14.)
"Alcoholic drinks forbidden to minors.
Tobacco forbidden to children under
49, wyoming, Utah. idaho, 81; Colo
rado, 15)
mo children under IA to work in
mines.
mo woman to work in mines. wy
oming, Colorado, Utah. (Not Gus
tomary in Idaho.)
Eight hours work maximum labor
day for women. Colorado, Idaho.
mo factory work for children under
IA. Colorado. Idaho. practically none
in Utah and Wyoming.)
"Age of consent IS or 21 years.
Equal pay for equal work, regardless
of sex. Wyoming, Utah. (By custom
in Colorado and Idaho.)
Father and mother share in guard
ianship. of children. Survivor the sole
guardian"
The above shows that when women
have the ballot they can protect them
selves far better than man-made laws
protect them now.
