The right of woman suffrage, in
my judgment, is no longer a ques-

uneducated and were wives, mothers,
daughters and sisters only, and war
was the worlds greatest ambition,
it was perhaps wise to keep women
at home on elections. But now wo-
men are equally educated with men
and are engaged in like industries,
and are confronted with practically
the same problems. They are there

Italy and Turkey is at war over
the possession of Tripoli. With a
vastly superior fleet, italy has the
advantage on the Mediterranean. If
Turkey could make it's land forces
effective, it would have the advan-
tage Of numbers. Just what has
transpired in active operations is not
known, as Italy censures all the war
news. Germany is trying to estab-
lish peace. Both the warning nations
maintain that they have no designs
on any territory except the disputed
African country. If the war con-
tinues it is apt to have disastrous
effect on the internal reforms Of Tur-
key. All attempts to form a min
istry to cope with the war situation
have so far been futile, and a die
tatorship is imminent.

Read Congressman Lindberg's re-
sumo Of the program of the Progress
sive Republicans in another column.
What will the Congressman and 9TH
ers who believes as he does, do when
the reactionaries and standpatters
repudiate their program in the Ma
tional Convention? This is likely to
happen in both the Republican and
Democratic conventions. Then what?
Will then these splendid progress
sives still think more of their old
discredited parties than they do Of
the welfare of their country? Con-
gresham Lindbergh is mum on the
liquor question, but the progressives
will find that they will not succeed
in the end unless they put the worst
corrupting agency in the country out
of business. Many true statesmen,
who fear to acknowledge it now, will
be forced to take this stand as war
measure, if for no other reason.

Admilar Schley is dead. He was
the hero of the naval t.attle Of San
tiago, when the Spanish fleet at
tempted to escape from the harbor.
While officially Admiral Sampson
was in command, he was twenty
miles away when the action took
place, while Admiral Schley was in
the thick Of the fight on the bridge
Of his flagship, and the people gen
orally have given him credit for it
even if he didn't draw the prize mon
ey and get the official recognition.
Admiral Schley was man Of demo-
cratic tendencies, who hated the
snobbery which infests our naval Of

The RELIGION Needed.

From the jackson independently
More and more we are convinced that
what this country most needs is religion
or training that will make a man pay his
debts. Shouting does not settle accounts
with God or man. Often we want to
bounce fellow right out of church be-
cause he went fishing on Sunday, but
never say word to the pious scamp who
never pays his debts, and such people are
doing the church more harm than any lot
of Sunday decorators. for there are more
of them in the church. Reader, are we
getting close to you? Then lay down this
paper and go and pay up, then you can
read on at ease. And don't you stop pay
ing because ''the statute of limitation ex-
cuses the open account which you made
for bread and meat. You must pay in
cash, or God will make you pay in fire and
birthstone. God knows no such excuse as
Homestead exemption" When you raise
that excuse to keep from paying your
debts you can stop singing "When l can
read my title clear to mansions in the
SKIES" You've yot none up there.

Our Position Toward the School Trust.

Our Position Toward the School Trust.
Our fight is against the State Admins
trotion in it's conduct of the schools as
being subversive of home rule, the inde-
pendence of the School Boards, and the
individuality of the teachers; the waste of
money for non essentials, and the waste of
time in school work in following educa-
tional fads and fancies.
We favor living salaries for all who ac-
tually work in the schools, good school
houses, hygenic and refined surroundings
and practical education for the children.
Whatsoever tends to these ends receives
our hearty corporation and approval, with
economy, always economy, the school
funds sacred to the children, as the watch
words.
We deprecate the existence of laws that
deprive the local boards of their natural
rights and give them to the Parish Super
intendent, at the same time by aningenious
clause or two putting the right of the latter
to exercise their profession at the mercy Of
the State Board. Upon this wheel within
wheel depends the strength of the schoo
machine.
However, we are "after" no schoo
official in particular. We criticise no one
especially, unless so stated, and when 81
doing, there is nothing ulterior- simply
what appears on the face of the statement
We do not employ the lapwing's device o
Turing the intruder from what we ourselves
want. The schools free, as well as FREE
schools, are all we are working for.-St
FauncisriUe Democrat.
