THE NEIGHBOR.

He set his hand to the pillow one day,
While yet his years were few,
Resolved to mark a distant field
With burrows firm and true.
His arms were strong for the toll of
life,
His heart was all afre,
Till neighbor laughed and turned
him home,
Rebuking his desire:
You are too young, you are too poor,
you are too weak" said he.
Best leave such tasks to the rich
AID great, and strive to be like
mel"
Then rosy Love brought grand larg-
esse
To his very cottage door,
A maid of mystery and of charm
cd never gave before;
AID the lad held out dumb hands of
Hope
To the mighty fires of Peace,
Till the neighbor passed with tongue
in cheek,
And then ne sought release.
HYou are too dull" the neighbor said
to shine by such as She
Find you girl of common clay to
wed, and be like mel
So time sped by, till the fading day
Could bring but one last chance
To break the bonds of a sordid life
And conquer Circumstance;
And well-nigh spent, he sought the
road
To the heights where life is great,
Eager to reach one shining goal,
But his neighbor whispered, wait
You are too old to do it now-it is
far too Late said he.
Il could not do it myself, you know,
and you are just like me.'

she knew. The husband suffered from
her opposition and, therefore, appealed
to the court to restrain her from con-
Inulng her business. The Judge up
held him, stating that while in Michi-
gan "a wife in most cases enjoys the
right to conduct business upon her
own account he was unable to finu
any decision which affirmed this right
to her when the husband withholds
his consent.
While the moral obligation of a man
to support his wife is recognized in
every state, the law does not always
compel him to do so. There are few
states where the law requires a wife
to support her husband and vet, in
most of them, her wages can be regu-
larly collected by her husband even
though he does not contribute to her
support. There is a pecnliarity re-
garding the California law upon this
point. The civil code provides that
the earnings of a wife are not liable
for the debts of her husband" but her
earnings fall into what is known as
the community" which the husband
controls. California woman re-
Gently sued her husband for divorce
upon the ground that he did not pro-
vide her with the necessities of life
He defeated her by proving that she
was earning a large income, that her
earnings were legally a part of "the
community which was under his iur-
isdiction, and that he allowed all of
her earnings to be used by her There
fore, he was an indulgent husband, al
lowing her a full measure of support.
The inequality of the intestate laws
in most states regarding women has
been the subject of recent agitation in
many states. In most of them if
woman dies without will the whole
of her property can be claimed by
her husband, whereas, if a man dies
intestate the widow is entitled only to
third. If a woman married her
property became her husbands, and
upon his death she had no more claim
upon it than if it never had belonged

PLACING THE BLAME.

After a year of storm and stress,
trials and tribuations, Miss Clara A.
Jess has resigned as recorder Of DAILY
City, suburb of San Francisco; as she
was the first woman in California to
hold a judicial position, there is inter-
est in her reasons for stepping down
and out of official life. During her
term of office Miss Jess sent only one
man to prison and that was for only
one day He was the town marshal
and the recorder imprisoned him be
cause, she said he refused to serve a
warrant on a personal friend. The
marshal has since brought suit for a
big sum, alleging false imprisonment
mat was one trouble with which Miss
Jess had to contend, but the principal
trouble she encountered was the lack
OF support of women voters. 1t ap-
pears that they did not stand bv her
with counsel during perplexing situa-
tions and she was forced to 90 if
alone. Now Miss Jess SAYS she does
not believe that women are tempera =
mentally or intellectually untitled for
the bench, but she is sorely disap-
pointed at the lack of support ac-
corded the woman official by the
women voters. There is nothing in
the emotions or impulses of women
she says, ito prevent them from CIV
ing just as good decisions as men, but
I doubt if they can stand the nervous
strain of meeting the opposition they
are sure to encounter without the sup

in other states have occupied similar

xxiV.-LEGAL STATUS OF
AMERICAN WOMEN.
BY Frederic j. Haskin.

Despite the much -vaunted advan-
tages enjoyed by the American
woman, there are some states in which
her rights before the law are prac-
tically nil and her legal status, if she
is married. is little better than that OF
a chattel or slave to her husband. The
woman suffrage movement, in it's
wide sweeping influence, is largely re-
sponsible for calling attention to these
defects in American law, and also is
Instrumental in securing the passage
of many Legislative measures to cor
rect them. A great deal yet remains
to be accomplished in this direction
Professor George Elliott Howard of
the University of Nebraska said in a
recent address upon this subject: "The
fact is that, touching the legal posi-
tion of women, American legislation is
often found to be medieval, even bar
barous in it's provisions"
To the average person who has mad.
no investigation upon the subject, it
would seem reasonable that the rights
of the father and mother in the guar
dianship of their children should be
equal but in only seven states-Colo-
RADIO, Kansas, Maine, Nebra ska, New
York. Pennsylvania and Rhode Island
is this the case. In these states this
equal right has been won only after a
hard fight made by the women them
selves. The original law gave all of
the rights to the father. In Maryland
a mother may be the guardian of her
child If the father is dead, in case he
has not appointed another guardian by
Will. Illinois gives the father the right
to provide a guardian for child, but
the law there protects the mother to
the extent of providing that no such
appointment shall deprive the mother
of the custody and tuition of her child,
without her consent, if she be a proper
person to have such charge. 1t also
provides that a widowed mother, if
sane, may appoint a guardian of her
child by will.

ITS ROCKY ROAD.

The caucus debate on the tariff bill
indicates that the democrats are as
widely divided upon the question of
duty as ever were the republicans.
Some of them regard their duty to
their constituents as more to be con-
sidered than the duty on wool. Others
consider their duty to their party as
paramount to the duty on sugar They
are of many kinds.
Some consider that the president
has no right to butt in upon the rev.
enue raising prerogative of congress.
Some consider that the first business
of the president is to steer his party
right. Some waver between their al
legiance to their party and their fear
of what the folks at home will say.
Some are putting up a good bluff for
the home people to read and are pre-
pairing to climb into the bandWagon
when their bluff is called.
But there is one thing certain, the
read of the tariff bill through congress
will not be smooth. There will be
chuciholes and humps. There will be
somebody at every turn to throw a
rock in the way Of the advance of the
measure. Just now, Texas and Lutlis-
lana are doing most of the hoWling
But wait till the discussion gets
further down the schedule.

TO her. More than so years ago a lit
tie girl sat in her fathers study listen
ing to the story of an old woman who
mad been left penniless by her hus-
band. He had Willed the farm which
she had brought to him by marriage
and upon which she had been born to
their only son. The son married and
the daughter -in-law was unkind to
the mother who, in her old age, had
no means of support. Judge Cady
could give her no help because the
law gave her property to her husband
When she married and gave him the
right to will it to whom he pleased
The little girl felt her blood grow hot
within her as she listened to the dis
cusslon. Years later when Elizabeth
Cady Stanton had been able to arouse
thousands of men and women to a de-
sire to correct the injustice of Ameri
can laws for women, she dated her own
enlightenment to the sad experience OF
the old woman she heard as a child in
her fathers law study.
