D01Oro, III the history OF the WOrlQ.
If really serious history of the So
called suffrage movement is ever
written, the year 1911 will show it
at it's height, if not at it's best.
There never was time when the
demand for women's intelligent inf1u-
ence and cooperation was more
sorely needed; there never has been,
in the history of America, such gross
outrages committed as have been
under the guise of Child Labor" and
the white Slave Traffic"
Here was truly a field, white unto
harvest-but the militant woman
has been so blatant in her demand
for rights, she ignored the oppor-
tunity to right some of the most
glaring wrongs against her.
The question Of a child labOring
for it's daily bread, has been consid-
cred from every viewpoint. 1t is,
unfortunately, one of the tragic
things facing US as a people, that lit
tie children must be robbed of their
birth-right, and labor to live in
world they have entered through no
volition of their own.
Granted the necessity for their
not the women who have been calling
so loudly for their right" to be as
men with men, taken thought for the
rights Of these helpless little ones
who are starved mentally and phys
ically-but who must live?
The horrors of the trade in young
women, financed, governed and pay
ing dividends' just as any other bus
mess has done, have been told us all
in the daily prints, yet not one of the
vast body Of militant" women has
banded itself with any Of those who
have been trying to wipe out this
cursed traffic in human flesh.
The right of an innocent girl to
her purity is surely worth more in
the sight of God and man, than the
right Of woman to cast vote. But
the suffragettes have taken little or
no interest in this phase Of woman's
rights.
Our public school system over the
entire country is cheating our chill
dren every day it is in session.
Our boys and girls have the right
to be equipped with the knowledge
needed to make them self-supporting
but do they get it?
Isn't it true that, after an average
of ten years spent in school, the very
great majority of our boys and girls
have to either enter a business col
lege, to learn business methods,
short hand or bookkeeping, Or else
become mere plodders in the bust
ness world.
What greater thing is there in
the world than the safeguarding of
our young people and our young
women?
Could a woman find more profit
able work than that which would
tighten the hours of the child who
has to work in shop, mill or store?
Could anything be more glorious
than. to save, unsullied, the white
soul of a young girl?
But the year 1911 shows little of
this accomplished by the women Of
this country or England in 1911-
and in these two countries we have
had exhibits with brass band accom-
paniments Of the woman who wants
to vote-simply because she wants
to vote
The value of the ballot is a ire
mendous thing, but woman will
WELD more power away from it than
she ever will with it.
How?
If John Jones is a candidate for
any Office, and if, in his town, there
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1912-01-11

at starvation wages, and working
them beyond their strength-how
long would it take John Jones to
promise "direct legislation" to i'm
prove those conditions, if the women
of the town worked for the election
by laying before father, husband,
brother, sweetheart, frend-those
brother, sweetheart, friend-thos'e
conditions and the remedy?
If houses of ill-repute battered
young girls, would it be hard mat
ter for the women of the town to
make the changing of that plank in
the candidates platform?
We may import English militant
suffragettes by the boat-load-but
all they can do is talk.
The women of these United States
hold the balance of political and bust
ness power right in their hands,
now, and by exer cising their
power they can better conditions, re-
move political rottenness and bring
civic conditions to their highest and
best development, and the ballot
box used by the men, will be the ex-
preston of their opinion.
And another stunt of the scientist
is typhoidless-typhoid fever.

SOMEWHAT PREMATURE

1t was currently reported on the
streets the first of the week that
Rev. J. W. Anderson would give
up his duties as pastor of the Pres
byterian church of this place to be-
come editorial manager of the Twin
Falls News. Seeking to learn the
truth of the rumor we sought Mr..
Anderson out, and ascertaincd that
while the rumor had some little
foundation, the facts did not war
rant its repetition.
On Friday last Mr.. Anderson did
come into possession of the control
ing interest in the News of Twin
Falls, having purchased the interest
held by Mr.. Dixon in the Company,
but the purchase was made for MIR.
Carl G. Anderson, n son of the Rev.
Anderion, who expects to assume
editorial management of the paper
about the first of next month. The
young Mr.. Anderson is now en-
ployed on the editorial staff of the
Republican Gazette, at Lima, Ono,
but will sever his connections will
that paper as soon a. business cour'
tcsy will permit.
Mr.. Anderson informs us thai
his son has always had fascination
for newspaper work and his college
training was along those lines. liz
will certainly be heartily welcomeC
by the fraternity of Southern lhah'
and we cannot refrain from congrat
ulating Mr.. Anderson Sr., for th
practical demonstration of his faltl
in the future of this section OF tn

GOVERNMENT INVESTIGATION.

The King Hill Irrigation Co. has
filed suits in the Federal Court
against several of the settlers ON
that tract for the collection OF un-
paid water rights which have been
refused on the grounds Of non de-
livery Of water. This action by the
company is apparently in retalia
ton for the steps taken by the set
tiers to force the company to COM
plete the system or forfeit their
contracts with the state.
The result Of this suit will tend
to open the way for thorough in
vestigation into Carey Act methods
as pursued by former state land
boards and the irrigation compa-
nies, not only on the King Hill
project, but if present plans are sue
ces-fully carried out the investiga-
ton will include all Carey Act seq
regations in Southern Idaho. A
protest is already being prepared
for presentation to Secretary Fisher
of the Interior department against
methods pursued by the state as
well as irrigating companies as be-
ing contrary to the true intent OF
the act.
The issues raised will he of direct
interest to every settler on Carey
Act project and the results will b,
closely watched. The present un
settled condition existing between
settlers and various irrigation com
panies has tendency to retarc
migration to this section of til,
state, and flaming advertisement
will fail in their mission until tn
companies adopt more concilitor,
course toward the settlers alread.
