WHERE THE STATE LOST.

When the Sessions-Dawson bill, pro-
viding for the assessment of corpora
lions and licenses, was rejected by the
Kansas legislature last winter the
state was the loser by thousands of
dollars in revenue. other states, es-
pecially the larger commonwealths in
the east, have adopted such a law and
are reaping its benefits ana realize full
we'll the wisdom and justice of the
plan.
The proposed Kansas Law was fash
Toned after the Ohio statute. In Mas
sachusetts, according to recent dis
patches. that state received 1915, 600
this year from January to May from
automobile licenses alone.
This is a tax on wealth and pleasure
A tax designed to aid the small bust
ness man and farmer and workingman
who pays taxes on the full value of
their property in their support of the
state government
The Kansas legislature opposed the
bill because it did not understand it.
The corporation lobbyists took every
advantage of the argument that it was
new scheme and unjust and defeated
the measure in the house, the body
where the representatives are suppos-
ed to be closest to the people.

A WISE DECISION.

The Kansas Supreme court has
taken step in the right direction in
the recent decision concerning the
rights and duties of stockholders in
the case of the Mechanics state bank
of Parsons. In this case a minority of
the stockholders became dissatisfied
with the manner in which the officers
of the bank were conducting the bust
ness of the institution. The bank was
not insolvent nor was It shown that
the business to which objection was
made was such that it endangered the
sOlidity of the bank itself. Still these
stockholders went into the district
court, had n receiver appointed and
had the affairs of the bank Hquidated.
The supreme court now steps in
and says that there was no necessity
for a receiver. That if the minority
stockholders were dissatisfied they
should have asked for an injunction
and the differences could then have
been tried out in the courts
While the decision may be new law
it is good, healthy law and one that
will help the stability of the business
institutions of the state.

A BLOW TO SUFFRAGE.

While women have won notable vic
tories recently in their fight for the
ballot, and have maintained a great
struggle under difficulties in England
against the powers that be, they suffer-
ed a great reverse in Canada last week
when the annual conference of the
Methodist church refused to accept
the credentials of a woman delegate.
This is the unkindest cut of ALL What
avail it to win political victories in
Kansas and lose such a decisive battle
in Canada?
Since the women waited at the sep
ulchre on the morning of the resur-
rection the church has been the one
place where the weaker sex has been
predominant There are. almost as
many women as men saints in the
Catholic calendar. Women have
preached and prayed and borne the
burdens of the church in thousands of
communities and cities all over the
civilized world for ages. They have
raised most of the money to carry on
the church work. Denied a voice or
place by the politicians TREY have been
welcomed by the bishor and the
clergymen as the pillars of the church
Yet this Canada conference refuses to
recognize the credentials of a woman
delegate.
Such an action may he dire in its
consequences. It puts the women on
the defensive in a struggle for place
and power in which they have lately
arisen to take the initiative. 1t is a
Brutus stab from an organization that
has been nurtured by women. She may
fail in commerce, politics. and all
phases of public life. but in religion
she has been a guardian angel always.
She washed the Masters feet, she went
at the cross, she received the body and
dressed it for the tomb, she saw the
angel that rolled away the stone. she
prayed while men fought and saw the
light always while men wandered in
darkness. To deny the credentials of
woman in a church of the GaIIilean
is little short of sacrilege. Men may
be ordained to save the state and rule
society and do the work of the world,
but woman was surely inspired by

The work of Attorney General John
Dawson in Crawford and Cherokee
counties again demonstrates that the
question of the enforcement of the
prohibitory law is simple one if the
officers handle the question in the
same spirit that they meet the admin
istration of other criminal statutes.
The claim is frequently made by
sensible people that the prohibitory
law can not be enforced when the SEN
timent of a large number or a majority
of the people is opposed to the en-
forcement of the law. But experience
proves that the whole matter rests
with the officers of the county or mu-
The sentiment of a. commu-
nifty is apt to undergo radical change
if the people who fiagrantIy violate the
liquor laws of the state are treated as
outlaws and given no more considera-
ton than bank robbers or any other
class of criminals.
That is what is happening in Chero-
kee and Crawford counties. Mr.. Daw-
son is public officer who has courage,
coupled with a high sense of duty and
he is starting out in a manner which
VIII make outlawry unpopular.
