ing for a low tariff, and for some re
lief from the abnormally high cost
of living.
The Morgan crowd is standpat Re
publican to the core, and regardless
of what Wall street talks about now,
there is little doubt that what IL Is
thinking about is the possibility OF h
tariff cut by the Democrats. To fore
stall this menace the billionaires are
stirring up the old cry of danger to
business" and getting ready to make
their usual attempt to coerce another
Stand Pat Republican victory year
from now.
The tariff is still the issue ON which
the two parties must fight it out next
year, knowing this, Wall street is al
ready laying plans, and since the only
weapon these money barons know how
10 use, since they have neither facts
nor Justice to aid them, is the threat
OF slack business. Their present walls
simply are practice stunts to get the
old bogey in working order for the
coming campaign.

CALIFORNIA; coCITlZENs.

The newly enfranchsed women Vot-
ers OF California have been very aptly
referred TO by some one as co-citiZeno.
AS co.education means like respQnsi-
blity and like opportunity for both
boys and girls, so co-citizenship means
like duties rs well as like privileges
for both men and owmen.
Co.education has worked well in the
schools and colleges. Co-citizenship
in the state is yet on trial.
The citizenship granted by consu'
tutional amendment voted only short
time ago the women of California are
now proceeding to try on-not in the
light of flippant manner, but serious
ly and earnestly. The responsibility
of it seems to be impressing them
more than the privilege.
In the municipal contest in Los An,
geles between the socialist candidate
and his good government" opponent,
the women hold the balance of power
and both sides are therefore making
an urgent appeal for their support
Already 10000 women have registered
7 and it is conservatively calculated that
by the time the registration closes
n week from now there will be 49,.
900.
Nor are the co-citizens interesting
themselves in purely local matters
alone. They have set themselves the
task of becoming intelligently familiar
with the more complicated problems
of national finance and administration
The subcommittee of the national
monetary commission, which is al
work on a plan of reorganization OF
the financial system Of the nation, met
recently at San Francisco Two of
Californias leading co-citizens, Mrs.
Mary Damagra, president of the State
Suffrage league, and Miss Helen
Moore, state organizer, We're present
at the meeting, and for what purpose?
Simply for civic information. eve
came to learn about the financial
question:" declared Mrs. Damagra. at

become acquainted"

SAME OLD "BOGEY MANN

The trust game of bringing out the
old "Bogey Man. called Business De
preston always is kept right
up in the front part of the stage when
ever an election approaches-is being
played again. From Wall street comes
the cry that Democratic Investigations
and supreme court decisions. and the
cry for low tariff and a dozen other
such calamities are constantly threat
ening business.
The purpose OF these walls, 1t is be-
coming more and more apparent, is to
gradually frighten the voters OF the
country into a state OF mind that will
make them fear to put in power an
administration which will cut the high
tariff duties.
The trusts pretend to be greatly
wrought up over recent suits against
some of their number. They pretend,
for instance. to be in panic because
of the suit against the steel trust,
and are trying to make the country
believe such activities as these against
Big Business will result in a general
industrial depression.
And while they are sending out
these alarms they know that the suit
against the steel trust will amount to
nothing as long as n Republican ad-
ministration is in power to prosecute 1t.
Similar suits We're filed against the
beef trust by Republican attorney
general eight years ago, and that suit
hasn't progressed an inch since IL
was filed, Notwithstanding that it has
been held up dozens of times as a
horrible example" of the way the pol
iticians were disturbing business.
II the suit against the steel trust
were prosecuted with all reasonable
despatch it would require two or three
years to get it before the supreme
court, hence the cry that this suit
alarms business" becomes ridiculous.
The real reason business is alarmed,
if it is true that business is alarmed
which is a question that is open to
arguments the fear of those bust
ness men who operate on a moderate
scale that the money trust is getting
grip on the industrial situation
which no political party will be able
to break. These small business men
are apprehensiye only in the degree
that they fear the money trust con-
trolled by Morgan will make some
move to discipline those who are cry

The plans and specifications of the
State Highway Department call for
permanent roads of the highest order
and this is the kind of roads that the
people can afford to build. While the
initial cost is heavier the repairs are
less, the road lasts for generations
and when the people of a county see
one mile of such road they quickly
make up their minds to make a net
work of the county of such highways.
