SOME ELECTION ODDITIES
Several Classes Of Americans Are De-
MED the Right to Vote.


Washington, Oct. 27.-According to
figures gathered by the bureau of sta
tictics, upwards of 100000 citizens
of the United States will record their
votes for president in the election
one week from Tuesday. A total OF
about 100000 women, in the states
of California, Colorado, Idaho, Wash
ington, Utah and Wyoming, are eligi-
BILE to vote.
BY no means all the men of n in
the country are qualified voters. for
the varying laws of the states not on
" bar convicts in the prisons in most
cases, but place other restrictions on
suffrage that become exceedingly i'm
portant in presidential years.
AS nearly every state bars convicts
from voting and there are about $780,
900 convicts in the prisons of the
country election day will mean moth
ing to whole army of them.
Nearly all of the states penalize
pauperism, idiocy, insanity and fell
ony by taking away the voting privi-
lege. In addition, a number of the
states bar delinquent taxpayers from
the right of suffrage.
United States soldiers, sailors and
marines are not qualified to vote in
Arkansas, Indiana, Iowa, South Dako-
ia, Texas and New Mexico.
Florida and Wisconsin place ban
on "duellists" and Idaho and Missis
ippi deny the right of voting to biga
mists and polygamists. A voter In
Wyoming must be able to read the
state constitution in the English Ian
| guage. In Maine, Michigan, Montana
South Dakota and Washington spe
cial restrictions are placed on the
voting privileges of Indians.

A philosopher is man, and rarely
 woman, who, having nothing to do Sd being glad of it. puts in his time e4laining the reason that other peo- Die should have for doing things,
 Philosophers are not popular be cauSe, iR/the first place, most men are t3Xl busy to listen to them, and, in <ne second place, they are satisfied with their own reasons for doing things
 Nevertheless, philosophers are wont to gravftate toward comfortable stoves in corner groceries, where men of varying leisures struggle in and to- wards comfortable chairs in universt ties where helpless youth are com pelsed to listen as part of an awful punishment called a curriculum.
 Whenever philosopher becomes ia nous, it always turns out that he is not a philosopher at all, but a scien- list. Simon pure philosophers never give information, because nothing less than explaining the unknowable will satisfy them One philosopher will never agree with another philosopher If he can possibly help it-L4fe-
