Federation of women's clubs.

Denver.-The Woman's club, where
the seventeenth annual convention Oh
the state Federation of Women
Clubs held their opening meeting, was
agog with indignant talk, for the woln'
en- considered that they had Deeh
snubbed by the Chamber of Commerce
when that body, who had permitted
the President to speak at the Audi
torium, the Denver University, to the
Yale men at the Country Clup, 10
citizens, to Republicans, to the Dase-
hall fans and to the railroad men, 10
the press men and yet when the Presl-
dent was asked to address for niteeh
minutes a representative BODY OF 'ne
most intelligent and prominent women
in the state. the Chamber of Com
merce curtly refused.
The executive board OF the state
Federation met and passed an import
ant resolution, asking that the State
Federation cooperate with the Direct
Legislation League and the State Fed
Grafton of Labor to initiate an eight
hour law for women. The two nameo
organizations have agreed to initiate
such a law.
Another resolution recommended by
the board was presented by Mrs. Mary
C. C. Bradford and enthusiastically IN
dorsed that the Federation go on
record as favoring the great highway
across the United States as me-
mortal to Lincoln.
The number of delegates to the Ma
tional Convention of Womens Clups
was discussed and it was recon-
mended that they be more equally dis
tributed throughout the state. mus
far Denver has been getting more
than its share, having been allowed
eleven, whereas the new plan Will pro-
vide that the delegates be so appor-
toned that three be allotted to Den
yer and the rest be apportioned about
the state.

sponded for the Federation.
Mrs. Wilson, who addressed the
convention began by reference TO
the senator who said that the govern
ment was fast becoming government
for the women, by the women and OF
the women. She made reference to
the recent land convention held here,
and said that if an earnest conference
were necessary to conserve the ma
tural resources and highways, it IS
quite as necessary to come together
to consider the conservation of human
resources. "If forest ways, coal mines
and broad acres are necessary to be
conserved that future generations
may prosper" she said, 'how much
more important to the preservation OF
the state is it that the intellectual
wealth and power of the children be
conserved"
Mrs. Theodore H. Van Wagenen,
state president of the Congress of
Mothers, spoke of the new mother
that she was evolved from the spirit
of cooperation and that it was the
sympathies of the mother going out to
her less fortunate sister. who could
not think out her problems, that had
resulted in the Mothers Congress.
where the mothers from various walks
of life met in counsel together.

From the noise some folks
make when Mr.. Jones' resigna
ton is mentioned, we Judge that
they must think he has a prepaid
lifetime lease on the COMPRESSION
al togs.
One decipIe of this doctrine
says" Such a suggestion is un-
timely evan coming from an
aopponent of Mr.. Jones" We are
unconscious of having expressed
any ideas altagonistic to that
gentleman. We have voted for
him for Congress every time il
has been our privilege to vote in
a congressional election. In las.
weeks issue we expressed our
admiration of his many @ 0 O d
Qualities a n d stated positively
that as yet we had no choice be
tween the two candidates, We
therefore advocated his resigna
ton NOT Because we were. partial
to his opponent but sbecause we
believe that resignation Would
strengthen him with the voters Of
the Statey which belief IS being
confirmed every day by the ex
pressions of similar nature from
intelligent and ptominent citizens
of this and other sections. Also
we advocated his resignation be
cause we desired to see "a gentle
man. in every way his peer, repre-
sent this District in Congress.
If this be treason, make the
most of it,.
said some speaker at the
Democratic Jubilee. held last
week in Baltimore, The Demo
Gratis will surely swim into power

A truth rather more forCible than
elegantly expressed. hut the truth

never let it get into your head
that an editor can live on the hot

that people expect him to pay his

1t is due.
