THE BOARD
OF TRADE
MEETING
SOME VERY IMPORTANT MATTERS
TO COME UP TONIGHT, AMONG
THEM GOOD ROADS, CHERRY
FAIR AND MANUFACTURING
MATTERS.

The regular monthly meeting Of the
Board of Trade takes place tonight,
and will be of unusual interest, as
there are some important matters to
be taken up in addition to the regular
business. The new goods roads bill,
prepared by the State Good Roads
Commission will be taken up and dis
cussed and explained by Hon Geo. F..
Rodgers, who is a member Of the
commission, and who will also explain
the six good roads bills about to be
submitted to the voters of the state.
The club will probably pass upon the
matter of endorsing one or all of the
bills and circulating petitions for
their submission. The Cherry Fair,
mountain water for the city and man
ufaCturing industries will all be con-
sidered, 1t is important that every
member should be present.

MAY RECALL JUDGE
OF KLAMATH COUNTY

That an effort is being made to re-
call the county judge of klamath coun-
ty, and that petitions are being crcu-
lated, is indicated in letter received
by Attorney-General Crawford yester-
day from c. r. DeLap, klamath coun-
ty clerk. He asks what course he
shall pursue If such petitions are sub
mitted TO him.
In the light of the recent ruling of
the Encouragement he will advise
the county clerk to file the petitions
II they are presented.
Although it is not stated in the let
ter, this evidently is the outcome of a
factional fight in Klamath county,
which was taken up to the governor
several weeks ago, when charges were
hurled at the Klamath county court,
and counter charges returned.

 PARIS. Jan. I4-French women are showing a steadily growing interest in Women's suffrage. This has not hy any means reached the stage of the movement in England or the United States. but it has advanced far enough to bring about the formation of organizations devoted to the cause
 American women are explaining the progress of the movement in America. Among these has been Miss Lucy DaviS. of Philadelphia who recently addressed a French society for wom- ems suffrage al the city hall at Passy on the present state of the suffrage ouestiou in the United States Miss Davis. who spoke in French, IS a great granddaughter of Lucrela Mott a Quaker preacher of the earlier days.
 French suffragists are planning to present women candidates for elective positions in several places as test Of their strength. This is of doubtful ie- vality. Although the law does not specifically prevent the nomination and election of women, it is regarded as probable that if elected to any office. they would not be seated. At the last election for deputy in Paris a woman was nominated. but she re- ceivcd a very small vote.

THE EVOLVED CAUCASIAN
AND HIS SOCIAL SYSTEM

To the Editor Of THE TIMES:
In the perpetuation of a species of the
lower animals there is a sort of instinct
that guides the more nearly normal in
dividuals into antagonizing the abnor-
NAL ones. Among deer an albino is not
permitted to roam with the herd. and
when one of the herd becomes disabled
the others attack and often put II to
death. The disabled one, on account Of
Its helplessness. and the albino, on &C
count of its conspicuousness, is each q
drawback to the safety of the herd and
abnormality reproduced Is degeneracy.
A similar principle prevails In the Cau-
casian race, but in this case 1t pertains
mainly to the abnormality in the en-
vironment that Is produced by the crea-
ton of to plutocrat.
The object of the pIutocrat Is for MINI
self and his offspring to become richer
and richer, and that, too, without re-
gard for the offspring's peculiarities or
fitness. If the plutocrat could measure
his happiness by the amount OF his
wealth, or II he could transfer to his
descendants the power to continue as
plutocrats, plutocracy might be vir-
tue Bat he can do neither the one nor
the other. When parent gathers ex-
cesstye wealth from his fellow-man
and gives 1t to his child, he imposes
arctic retardation on the one and tropi-
cal retardation on the other. Besides

Its enjoyable love story and brisk char

a true appreciation. and the romance
and beauty oil this ancient, oriental
country of the Middle Americas are
conveyed in an imaginative STYLE which
is piquant and richly interspersed with
humor, yet none the less gracefully
adapted TO soberer moods ana serious
occasions. Miss Cameron, with her
cheerful outlook and her love of thu
human being. discounts the horrors of
conditions in Mexico as depicted by 9TH

Mexican problems. But she views them
as problems, not deep-dyed, unmitigated
