But WOULD THEY?

TWO main arguments are put forth IN
favor of woman suffrage, namely, that
it is right due the women, and that
If women We're to enter politics on an
equal footing with men politics would
thereby be brought TO a higher level
promoted
A suffragist writer takes up the sec
ond point in an article in the Kansas
City Star. and says: w omen have a
better civic conscience than men, they
will not permit themselves to he
swayed by the fact that their efforts
might lessen their dignity with the
yoWers that be, and they would not sell
| out What they go after is the all i'm
portant point with them. even if they
have to cut across lots
The complaint is made against men
that they are timid, or indifferent, or
: dishonest. There are plenty of men in
whom one or more of these faults are
to be found But would women really
measure up 10 a better average in these
respects? That is a point about which
there would be dispute. And as for
cutting cross lots, it is By no means
certain that impetuosity gains more
than deliberation. The problems OF
politics and government are intensely
human in their nature and in the ma
terials with which they are to be
solved.

THE RAILWAY POSTAL CLERKS.

(, Railway mafl clerks are said to be
iorganizing With serious purpose TO
strike. Complaint is general among the
mem bers of this branch Of the service
On the Pierre division in Dakota the
mail clerks have already struck and if
expressed sentiment on other divisions
IN Dakota, Iowa and other northwestern
states may be taken as indicati tive that
general walk out is averted mainly
by want of organization, and dis patches
from Sioux City and points in the Da-
kotas suggest that organization is in
process.
A general strike of railway mail
clerks would cause indescribabe an
noyance and seriously cripple the entire
! postal service.
The railway postoffice Is the keystone
,of rapid transfer OF mail matter. The
fclerks are a hard worked class of en-
iployes. whose efficiency comes by long
ftratning and thru peculiar adaptabil!ty.
Their labor IS performed under danger
Fous conditions. a $1,000 or $1,000 mail
clerks position Is not a sinecure He
gets his salary by hard work and in the
ever present danger Of death for the
railway postal clerks hazard is next to
THAT OF the engine crew They have
rnever been overpaid or underworked.
and when complaint is general and
these men begin to threaten strike it is
time for careful Investigation into con-
<litions.
One Of the worst ways to attemp. to
eliminate the postal deficit would be
by cutting wages OF men none too well
paid or increasing the labor of rncn
who are working hard and earning all
they get. A record Of economy in post
office affairs IS not to be successfully
carried out a. the expense of the wage
workers while railroad contracts re-
main top heavy with railroad profits
and political postal appointive offices
carry nearly double the salaries the In
cumbents could command outside gov
erament employment.
The railway postal clerks deserve a
careful hearing. They do not cut much
figure in conventions it is true, but they
bring New York "a hours closer to
Marshalitown and are a vital part of
present day postofice effectiveness

fruit farms outside Of Iowa-but they

The land of big red apples and or
| chards worth $1,000 an acre didn't
grow. 1t was made by hard work and
brains. 1t can be unmade whenever
and wherever men stop working and

Iowa has not gone into the big red
apple business, not because she
couldn't but because she wouldn't She
preferred to raise corn. Down in Mills

them. The idea was that an orchard
once planted should take care OF it
self outside of a little pruning with a
saw The orchards at Glenwood have
never figured against the $1,000 an
acre orchards of the advertised fruit
farm belt but many thousands of car
! loads of apples have been shipped from
southwestern Iowa. not the best APP
pies, but the best apples to be picked
from orchards which simply grew.
Three or four years ago a Mills coun-
~ man tried to sell a forty-acre or
chard TO get rid of it. He wanted $4,000
for it and couldn't get it. This put
him precisely in the position of the
man III the big red apple county. He
had to raise apples or nothing. SO he
raised apples. He sprayed and culti-
waited his trees, lived with the orchard.
He took about $1,000 for the crop.
came late in the spring lie smudged
the orchard and saved enough to net
nearly $4,000. la short he went into
the orchard business and found he had
an orchard worth $1,000 an acre which
he had tried to sell for ore third its
value in the hands of an orchardist
instead Of a corn piower.
