stripes and shut up in cell,
and then if the warden came
along with a suit of citizens

the country, put you at work at

Perhaps the prison is as great
a crime against the prisoner as
any he has committed against

A few society women and the
women OF the underworld"

the polls?
In Colorado women are only ~

they cast As per cent OF the vote.
Why do women vote more faith
fully than men9
Because they are at home on
election day.
Do not the Objectionable" wo-
men vote?
In Idaho they are Forbidden to
register. At the last election in

trict, and only 4 per cent OF the

land, IS per cent.
How much time does It take to

About an hour a year does all

Why do women wish to vote?
For the same reason that men do.
A TIMBER MONOPOLY
Concentration of the control Of
the standing timber in a very few
vast speculative holdings "far in
advance Of any usee thereof" and
an enormous increase in the value
"of this diminishing natural re-
source with great profits to it,
owners" and incidentally ian
equally sinister land monopoly"
and closely connected railroad
domination'-the are the find
ings reported to the president by
Herbert Knox Smith, commissioner
OF corporations, in the first in
stallment Of his long-awaited re-
port on the lumber industry in the
United States.
He declares the operations bf
the timber trust dwarf the Stand
ard Oil by comparison. These
holdings, he says, have enough
standing timber to build an ordi-
nary five or six room house, for
each OF the 100000 families in
the United States in 1900. II saw
ed into lumber and placed in cars
their timber would load a train
about 100000 miles long.
In the last forty years, concen-
tration has SO proceeded that 1876
holders, many interrelated, have
practically one-half of the pri-
vately owned timber in the inves-
tigated area (Which contains so per
cent OF the whole. This formid-
able process certainly involves
grave future possibilities OF i'm
pregnable monopolistic conditions
whose far-reaching consequences it
is difficult to anticipate fully to
overes6mate."
This combine is fighting the
presidents treaty with Canada.

"CLEANINC HOUSE"

From a business man on the
Pacific coast came this brief mes
sage on the Sth:
Seattle cleaned house yester-
day; also, put in new door sill
and storm protector. in the person
of George W. Dilling for mayor.
Rejoice with u.s."
We do indeed! And 80 do good
citizens everywhere. 1t is ever .
matter of felicitation when the
people get what the people want.
Dissatisfied with their mayor
whose attitude toward the deni.
zens of the vice district WAS the
immediate cause Of dissatisfaction
the people decided 10 put the
Recall into operation. When the
votes were counted on the night OF
the It'll, it WAS found that major.
ity of the voters (Which now in.
clude women) preferred to have
their mayoring done by another
person. The old mayor steps out;
the new walks in. Seattle will
henccforth, no doubt, be free from
the stigma Of vile and appalling
conditions" that brought her into
disreputs. The people there want
u clean and good city. Because
they have the Recall, the people
sss in fair way 10 get it-without
delay.-La Follette's.
