SWEEPING REFORMS

At the election in California
Tuesday all but one of proposed %
amendments to the state constitu-
ton were carried. Among these
were the initiative and referendum,
the recall of all elective officers,
local self-government for cities,
regulation of corporations, etc.
The election was great victory
by the progressives. Women suf-
frage failed to carry at this cleo
ton.
The passage of the judiciary re-
call is looked upon as rebuke to
President Taft, whose opposition
to the measure is we'll known.
One unique feature of the cam
paign was the prominence which
the question of woman suffrage
took. The liquor interests and
the slums in the big cities were
strong against the women. The
vote, however, in the state was
very close. Southern California
voted heavily in favor of granting
suffrage to women.

AN EXAMPLE

The government has proved that
it can mine coal more efficiently
and more cheaply than can private
parties. The government owns a
mine at Williston, N. D. Coal is
produced there for $3.50 per ton;
coal from private mines sells for
$3.50 per ton. Moreover, the gov
eminent mine is a model mine. 1t
is equipped with every known
safety device. There has never
been a man killed in it. The min
ers work only eight hours a day,
six days week, and earn at the
rate Of about 500 per month. In
view of these facts, why turn
Alaska over to the Morgan Gug-
genheim outfit? Why shall not
the United States both own and
develop Alaska? Why shall not
the government build the railroads
and mine the coalp 1t has proved
its ability to do both. Not only is
labor pleased with government
ownership, because it gets better
hours and better pay in the gov
eminent service, but the consumer
is pleased also, because he gets
better service and lower prices.

Cardinal Gibbons appears now
in the role of a Prince of the Church
debating as such to its communi-
cants in the United States with
reference to their action in matters
purely political. He denounces
not only the judicial recall, but
also the initiative, the referendum,
and the election of United States
senators by direct vote of the peo-
pie. All these are live political
issues in many states; and two of
them, the initiative and the refer
endum, are political issues before
the supreme court of the United
States. May non-Catholic Ameri-
can citizens who believe in the
democratic side of those issues, be
trusted to consider with patience
this apparent effort at ecclesiasti-
cal dictation. Chicago American.

The latest phase of the outcry
against the high cost of living is a
simultaneous movement in several
large cities to crowd out the mid
dlenan. In Indianapolis the mid
dlers shut the farmers out of the
public market, where they could
deal directly with the consumers,
but the mayor got his back up
about that time and brought in
several carloads of vegetables
which were peddled off of wagons
direct to consumers and the thing
created perfect furore.

A HUMORIST

A generation or SO ago New
England produced humorist
widely known as Artemus Ward.
He died with what the doctors
called two buckles on his lungs
Mr.. Wards last joke was the max
ing of his will a short time before
he passed to the great unknown.
In his will he remembered all his
relatives and several eleemosynary
institutions with large requests
which his executor failed to meet.
Had Artemus Ward lived to the
age of beet sugar factories built in
the San Luis valley he would prob
ably have willed to name sake
one of these great factories-one
of the sweetest things on earth.

A Unique Lemon Party.

Just as was trying my best to con-
jure something new for you this week
and wondering what 1t would De,
along comes Polly" my never failing
one. all bubbling- over with her Lem
on" party. Sounds refreshing, doesn I
It? She cut the invitations out OF
slightly rough yellow stiff paper, TIED
with a little bow Of iemony satin RIB
bon. When all the guests arrived
they went on to the porch and were
given lemon shaped cards through the
top of which spray Of fragrant lemon
verbena. On the table there was
pile OF lemons; each guest drew one,
cut It open with 4 silver fruit knife
and counted the seeds, writing down
the number on her lemon card, also
writing her name. The lemons were
then taken to the pantry and soon re-
appeared in the shape OF lemonade.
The seeds were collected and placed
in a glass fruit jar, where every one
could see them, and guesses were tax
en- as to the total number, the number
guessed being also recorded on the
card. Then refreshments were served,
consisting of lemon aspic salad sar-
dine sandwiches, lemon sherbet ana
cakes iced with lemon frosting. Candy
boxes in shape of lemons were passed
for favors, each one containing per-
feet little lemon quarters in the shape
of candy. Then the prize for the
nearest guess on the lemon seeds was
awarded. 1t was straw garden hat
trimmed with lemon colored tarle-
ton and p bunch of artificial lemons.
The consolation prize was half-dozen
lemons and a china lemon squeezer.
Every one said 1t was a most enjoy
able party and polly" added anoth-
er laurel to her wreath in honor OF
her clever ability as hostess.

An Orchard Party.

We had taken what was practically
an abandoned farm for the summer
and were mediating how to entertain
our city friends in some rather unus-
ual way when Polly" came to the
rescue and said, Let's have an Or
chard" party. SO the artist of the
family did lovely invitations, with ap-
pie trees as the decorative scheme.
We had four small tables each with
rustic baskets for the centerpiece
filed with field wild flowers. The
place cards were made from squares
of birch bark, and the Joke favors
were wrapped in yellow tissue paper
and tied to the trees, from which they
were cut by the guests. Then we
sent in town and got fruit-shaped
candy boxes, which were strung at in
tervals on yellow cord after the meth
cd of the old but always funny cob
web parties, and stretched these
strings over a good part Of the or
chard. The hunt after the luncheon
for the fruit" added much to the
merriment. Sometimes 1t was neces-
sary to climb up ladder convenient
ly placed under tree to reach the
fruit" which was Just out OF reach,
and sometimes rail fence had to be
climbed. The guests were all told
to wear tub suits, and broad brimmed
straw hats were provided.

Many little plisses. jabots and frills
show touches of black velvet in the
form of tiny buttons.
Scarfs of satin or supple, change
able taffeta are used on both after
noon and evening dresses.
AS a decorative agent In trimming
a tailored suit, there is nothing SO
effective as black and white silk.
The "mitten" stocking is pretty
fad. 1t is black net, and is worn over
a silk stocking of contrasting color
The newest form Of watch is that
which is placed within a pendant.
Still smaller is a dainty watch set in
a ring.
Skirts of evening dresses are slash
ed at the side or front, showing ruff
fies of net or lace on the under
dresses.
Small black velvet buttons are used
in hundreds. Rows of them are used
on blouse sleeves and the entire front
of the skirt.
Shoemakers' heels are used on
street shoes and boots, while the
Louis XIV. heels are reserved for
evening shoes.

hung from the veranda. alternating
with Japanese lanterns OF various
shapes. The table centerpiece was
made from q scooped-out half OF mel
on filled with brilliantly colored mas
turtiums; the name cards were ex-
tremely odd, being squares Of melon
rinds the names etched down to the
pale lining of the rind. A sharp or
ange wood stick was used for letter
ing. The place doilies were made
from melon seeds, tho black coloring
showing up beautifully on the pink.
The FIRST course was iced watermelon
Juice with tiny cubes Of the pink fruit
floating In the green bouillon cups.
The next course was watermelon and
canteloupe salad served in white let
tuce hearts in pink salad cups made
from crepe paper, and the third course
consisted of salad cups made from
pink crepe paper, and the third
course consisted of watermelon frappe
served in little boats from watermel-
on rinds neatly cut out with very
sharp knife, each boat having darky
doll to steer it. After this unique
repast, q quartet of darkies sang coon
songs for an hour; they were con-
cealed by the shrubbery on the lawn
and the music was greatly enjoyed by
the guests on the porch, the moon
came up and 1t was all lovely and un-
usual.
