lions Put La On.

Emporia, Dec. 14.--That gen
eraI campaign to enforce non-smok'
ing by minors will be made, is the
result of the disclosures at the high
school the other day, whereby II
was learned that members Of, the
athletic teams were smoking on the
sly. After thoroughly discussing
the proposition, the school board
has decided to ask the city commits
sion to hold the young boys Of EN-
poria strictly in hand, and further
more. to prohibit such minors from
Oongregating and smoking in any
public places. Besides the connie
sion, whic@ holds the whip hand in
the matter, the school board will
ask the Civil Welfare League to
Join in the suppression Of the bad
habit among boys, the City Fedora
ton, the Forum and Current club,
and the Emporia Commercial club.
Such a movement against the smok-
Ing evil never has been waged be-
fore, which makes the event OF
greater Importance now, and indi-
Gates the seriousness with which
the board Of education Is regarding
The matter.

Vacancy, It Is Said.

New York. Dec. 13.--The fact that
President-eIect Wilson intends to
offer the first supreme court vacancy
to President Taft has become gem
orally known. 1t Is said the idea
originated after the presidents
speech at the Lotus club several
weeks ago.
Mr.. Wilson, after reading the
speech, remarked to friend;
IT know what shall do with one
ex-president. If he will be gracious
enough to allow me so to dispose
OF him. I shall ask Mr.. Taft to fill
the first vacancy which occurs on
the bench Of the supreme court. |"

Many farmers of the lower Shenandoah
valley lost heavily as a result of last
Sundays wind and rain storm, which was
also accompanied by lightning. Thou
sands of old and young shade trees in the
Virginia valley counties were torn off or
uprooted, many barns and scores of small
er buildings blown down and large fields
of ripening wheat were beaten to the
ground by the rain and wind. Bottom
lands were flooded for several days after
the storm. Although many fruit trees
were Lprooted and others stripped of
their fruit. the crop in general has not
been materially damaged as thousands

Woman's Monopoly.
From the Atlantic.


Judging by the facts. women are pretty
fully in possession of formal education.
II we examine this monopoly little more
carefully, We shall find that while In the
kindergarten and in the elementary
schools boys furnish 81 per cent OF the
enrolment. simply because more boys are
born in civilized communities than girls.
as soon We reach the high schools girls
increasingly take the lead. In 1910 the
girls formed 5G4 per cent of the enroll
ment in high schools, or there We're no..
2i9 more girls than boys. The proportion
of girls increased through each of the
four years of the course, and, OF the grad
yates COS per cent were girls. In the
public normal schools Ga 10 per cent OF
the students were girls.
The universities, colleges and technical
schools. which are massed together in our
government reports. had hardly any
woman students I'm 1870: in 1850, 1913 per
cent of the students were women; in 1898
~ per cent. in 1910. 30.4 per cent In all
these institutions had enrolled in
1910. 17.T07 women. or 6D2 institutions

$50 were open to both sexes But here
again the influence of women increases
during each of the four years. for the
women took All per cent OF the 4. r.
degrees granted in 1910 II IL surely not
too much TO say that. IL present condi-
tions continue, women will soon be In

and higher education in the United States.

of the existing import duties are too

Reimbursement should be made from
time to time to conform to changing
conditions and to reduce excessive rates.
but without injury to any American In
dustry.
For Tariff Commission.
To accomplish this correct informa-
ton is indispensable. This informa-
ton can best be obtained by an expert
commission. as the large volume of
useful facts contained in the recent
reports of the tariff board has demon
strated.
The pronounced feature Of modern
Industrial life is it's enormous diversi-
ffcation. To apply tariff rates justly
to these changing conditions requires
closer study and more scientific meth
DDS than ever before. The republican
party has shown by it's creation of a
situation and its determination to be
equal to 1t. We condemn the demo-
cratic party for it's failure either to
provide funds for the continuance of
this board or to make some other pro-
vision for securing the informa ton
requisite for intelligent tariff legisla-
ton We protest against the demo-
cratic method of legislating on these
vitality important subjects without
careful investigation.
We condemn the. democratic tariff
bills passed by the House Of Repre-
sentatives of the Sixtysecond Con-
gress as sectional. as Injurious to the
public credit and as destructive OF
business enterprise.
Cost Of Living.
The steadily increasing cost of living
has become a matter not only of national.
but of worldwide concern. The fact that
it is not due to the protective tariff sys-
tenn is evidenced by the existence OF sim
liar conditions in countries which have
a tariff policy different from our own, as
we'll as by the fact that the cost of liv-
ing has increased. while rates OF duty
have remained stationary or been re-
duced.
The republican party will support a
prompt scientific inquiry into the causes
which are operative both in the United
States and elsewhere, to increase the cost
of living. When the exact facts are known
1t will take the necessary steps to remove
such abuses as may be found to exist in
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1912-06-23

order that the cost Of the food. clothing
and shelter of the people may in no way
be unduly or artificially Increased.
Banking and Currency.
The republican party has always stood
for sound currency and safe banking
methods 1t is responsible for the re-
sumption of specie payments and for the
estab Enlistment of the gold standard. 1t Is
committed to the progressive development
Of our banking and currency system. Our
banking arrangements today need further
revision to meet the requirements of cur
rent conditions. We need measures which
will prevent the recurrence of money
panics and financial disturbances and
which will promote the prosperity OF
business and the welfare of labor by pro-
ducing constant employment.
We need better currency facilities for
the movement OF crops in the west and
south We need banking arrangements
under American auspices for the encour-
agement and better conduct of our foreign
trade. In attaining these ends the indie
pendence of individual banks, whether
organized under national or state char
ters. must be carefully protected, and
our banking and currency system must
be safeguarded from any possibility OF
domination by sectional. financial or po-
litfcal interests.
Would Aid Farmer.
1t is Of great importance to the social
and economic welfare OF this country
that its farmers have facilities for hor-
rowing easily and cheaply the money
they need to increase the productivity
of their land.
1t Is as important that financial
machinery be provided to supply the
demand Of farmers for credit as it is
that the banking and currency systems
be reformed in the interest of general
business. Therefore, we recommend and
urge an authoritative Investigation of
agricultural credit societies and corpora
tons In other countries, and the passage
of state and federal laws for the estab-
lishment and capable supervision of
tons having for another pur-
pose the loaning of funds to farmers.
The Civil Service.
We reaffirm our adherence to the prin-
ciple Of appointment TO public office
based on proved fitness and tenure dur
ing good behavior and efficiency. The
republican party stands committed to
