WOMEN IN POLITICS.

The more practical education that
new obtains with both women and
men-and the advanced steps that
have. been made in the manner Of
both sexes winning a livelihood-com
bined with the broadening of views as
relate to the great problem OF life-all
have probably contributed toward
bringing women forward as potent fac
tors in public affairs. Whatever may
have dene IT. however, is of little con-
s@quencs. The fact remains that such
are the conditions that women are
rapidly taking firm hold on the
agencies that direct the Affairs OF this
country. They are doing this in some
states to the extent Of taking over to
themselves the right Of franchise.
The establishment OF womau,s .suf-
fraEe in California is one OF the latest
and most conspicuous triumphs for
womAn's freedorn--from what is term
ed shackles placed on her by the stern
ear sex. In that state women new vote
and serve on juries the same as men
do.
This thing Of what the women call
release from political bondage in that
states has in some sections placed the
power Of controlling public affairs in
the hands Of the women. In santa
Barbara there are 500 more registra-
tions OF women than Of men. In Los
Angeles the registration is about
equal.
While women have exercised q
great influence in elections in the
past they win now have greater
and wider influence by actual voting.
II may be expected that the right OF
suffrage will be extended 10 women in
ether states. The militant suffragists
sverywhere are making persistent
nght for the cause they have espoused.
AS there is scant opposition to the
policy Of universal suffrage 1t must

II is tribute to prosperity. 1t is
the geometrical enlargement OF needs
that outstrtps the arithmetical pro-

does. 1t is literally and eternally

It is fact. however. that the ma

remarkable and it often seems. an
unnecessary degree. A way to elm

There are so many buildings at the
North Dakota Agricultural college
and they are SO far from the center

necessary there should be an A. c..

In each building chemicals are kept
for extinguishing small blazes. They
are easily accessible and of great

buildings are occupied. They are
however, or no benefit without some
one Is around to handle them speedily.
The college is also equipped with
two small reels OF hose. The water
pressure is not sufficient to render
the hose of much value unless the
fires were on the first floors.
The college board might invest in a
chernhcal fire engine or in some form
Of hre fighting apparatus ordinarily
used in villages. During the school
term a fire department could easily be
organized among the students These
could develop an effective hre fighting
force. During the vacation there are
q suf1cient number Of employees and
sumner students to man the Are de-
partment for that period.
