tionable; they can not be affected by
the Offenses of a few Unbalanced suf-
fragists. What reason can be put for
ward to induce suffragist to with
hold himself at such a favorable mo-
ment? Is it the desire to punish the
militants? Assuredly, Of all classes of
suffragists the militants will feel the
blow least. They will answer that
they have expected nothing better
from the House of Commons, and that
the rejection of the bill has confirmed
their dreadful philosophy.
"Those who will be punished are the
great host of suffragists, who have
done nothing to deserve punishment,
who have always set themselves
against violence. These will suffer,
and the state, which needs the en-
franchisement of women for its po-
litical and social health. Can it be
said that to grant women the suffrage
after a succession of outrages would
be to create a dangerous precedent
and set the seal upon violence as a
political weapon in a free country? 1t
would be historical pedantry to in
quire whether the history of our fran
chise legislation contains no instances
of concession to violence. Literary

Twin Falls good roads enthusiasts
should be turning their minds toward
the convention at Boise next Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday, and be max
ing plans to be there. If any of the au-
tomobile owners contemplate the trip
they should be sure to give their
names to the committee or to the Com
mercial club secretary with the num-
Der of people they can take with them.
Those who do not care to make the
drive with their cars or who may not
own them, can secure mighty cheap
trip to Boise and also boost the good
roads game for this section. The start
will be made next Monday so that
there is urgent need of preparation
prior to that time. The Automobile
association, in conjunction with the
Commercial club, should also make
some plan for entertaining the other
delegates who will come by this route
from Pocatello, Blackfoot and Idaho

The city council should be COM
mended for the increased allowance
made for the public library which will
allow that institution to run on the
same economical basis as formerly
and still take care of the demands
made upon it for new books and
periodicals. Before the library was
given $3.50 by the city, but it was al
lowed the use Of small room in the
county court house rent free. Owing
to the demand for the room now oc-
cupied by the library by the county
commissioners for their own use the
library must needs move and with the
move begin paying rental and other
incidental expenses which will con-
sumo the sum given in addition by
the council. The library is one of
the most important and worthy insti-
buttons supported by the taxpayers

HAS PLAN TO SUPPRESS,WCt
New Law Passed in Minnesota Now
in Force.

st. Paul, Minn.-The Wallace-Fos-
seen law, enacted by the Minnesota
legislature with view to Suppress
ing disorderly and gambling resorts
by preventing the use of property for
improper purposes, came into effect
today. The law has several unique
features. Under it's provisions any
citizen may begin civil action to
abate nuisance, the resorts being
classed as nuisances. Any attorney
may prosecute the action, which will
be brought in the name of the state.
If the court finds that the charges are
true an order will be issued closing
the property for one year, confiscat-
ing the household goods in the places
and ordering their sale, and filming the
property owner $780, Under the law
the property owner is presumed to be
aware of the purpose to which the
is being put. The attorney
the case, if successful, is
to be given 10 per cent of the fines
and the amount realized from the
sale of goods. To guard against an
abuse of the law it is provided that
the court, if convinced that an ac-
ton is being brought in bad faith, may
dismiss the case and assess the costs
against the citizen who brought it.

ENGLAND'S DEFEAT OF WOMAN'S
SUFFRAGE,

The suffragettes of England have
received their second setback from
the Parliament at Westminster. The
bill enfranchising women has been de-
feated in spite of the unwearied eff
forts of the followers of Mrs. Pank-
hurst to obtain what they consider
their rights. Have they not broken
windows innumerable, blown up and
burned down houses, churches, and
palaces, threatened the lives of Cab
met Ministers, destroyed costly works
of art, defied the law, suffered impris-
onment, and hurled bad language at
the magistrates who sent them to the
cells where they valiantly refused
food, and dared starvation for the
cause. In spite of their violence, their
imprisonments, their HASTINGS, the
English suffragettes have so far sig
nally failed. "The traitor Asquith, !"

Filler Man Does Not Like Electric
Bill Board.

The Journal man paid visit to the
county seat last Saturday and was
proud to note the activity of the Magic
City along many lines Every citizen
of this county is proud of Twin Falls
and never fails to boost for the good
town whether In conversation or in
letter writing to friends in other
states or in other climes. Her repu-
tation for doing things is nation wide,
and dull indeed, must be the mind
that has never heard of her wonderful
achievements.
On the way to the postoffice we
glanced across the street to some va
cant lots and noticed very large bill
board which contained the announce
ment Leading Business Firms of
Twin Falls Naturally this an
nouncement interested us and we
stopped to read. Hardly a name was
familiar to us, and we reread the list
There are three splendid papers pub
lished in Twin Falls, and for more
than three years we have carefully
scanned their interesting pages. To
a newspaper man it is always a pleas
ure to note the firms that take the
Using their wares and helping to keep
alive that most necessary adjunct in
the upbuilding of a countryside
press-and more especially new one
that must start from the grass roots
and with but hardly days notice.
And SO we looked again. What
firms are these chat have the hardi-
hood to claim such distinction as
leading firms" Say, gentle reader.
there was a name that we recognized
as entitled to this distinction-the
name of Ostrander-whether used III
connection with furniture or lumber,
as both Of these firms are entitled to
be thus designated. But the others,
who were they? We looked in vain
for the name of Booth, or Jenkins &
Co., Idaho Dept. Store, Stapleton
Priebe, Young-Lytle Co., Eldridge,
Taylor, Shoshone Grocery, City Mar
keting, T. F. Grocery, not hardware,
not a theatre, nor hotel, nor many
other business firms familiar to the
eye of the newspaper reader.
The unsightly bill board is a posi-
tive detriment to the busy, busting
city of Twin Falls as it gives the Wis
itor a wrong impression of the char
acter of that otherwise progressive
town. 1t should be moved to town
like Shoshone or Albion. 1t looks
provincial 1t ought to be taken
down if Twin Falls desires to retain
her reputation, as it is a reflection on
the business sagacity of live town,
full of the best boosters and the best
fellows gathered from all points of
the compass. 1t does not reflect the
best sentiment that we know exists in
that splendid town. We want to ex-
cuse the men who were inveigled in
to taking space upon the big homely
construction and in doing SO we must
lay it to temporary suspension of
their better judgment for the time,
and being hypnotized by the persua-
sive tongue of the oily CRATER, took
the hook.
From the viewpoint of the disinter-
ested outsider it would appear that it
was now up to the civic committee Of
the Twentieth Century club to hang a
can on the inartistic appearance of
the sign, and see that it is moved from
its present location to the livery stable
section of the town.-Filer Journal.

TEL. gs.

From the number of unsavory in
cidents which have occurred in this
city, it would seem necessary for the
city to put more restrictions on the
transient class and, when no visible
source of income can be shown, give
the men of that class over, as Migrants
and run them out. If such law does
not exist for the city, it should be
created as an ordinance. 1t costs en-
tirely too much to take care of the
minor scraps and small riots which
are continually happening. If man
cannot show good reason for hang
ing about the city he should have an
invitation to move with considerable
propelling power back of it.

SENATORS AND VACANCIES

Senator Bacon Of Georgia is the first
Senator of the United States 10 be
elected by popular vote, unless the
State of Maryland gets in first. Gov
ernor Goldsborough OF Maryland has
stated that he will issue a writ for the
election on November 4th next of A
successor TO the late Isidor Rayncr.
who died last fall and whose place
was filled temporarily by the Govern
or's appointment Of William 2. Jack
son, who Is now occupying that Sena.
torial scat from Maryland The right
of Governor Goldsborougb to issue this
writ for the election of a Senator is
disputed. since there has been no ses-
sion of the legislature since the Seven.
teenth Amendment was adopted. and no
legal provision has been made whereby
that amendment can be put into effect
in case of vacancy, But Governor
Goldsborough very logically assumes
that as formerly in case OF such a va.
cancy, the legislature, upon its Assem-.
bling, would proceed to fill that va.
cancy, so now as the people at large
arc TO elect the L. :. Senators. the no.
propriate thing is for the Governor to
submit 10 the people. as he would for.
merly have submitted to the legisla.
ture, at the earliest opportunity, the
duty Of filling the vacancy.
Still, il is best for every State TO
mako definite and positive legislation
on this subject, 50 that there will be
no doubt whatever as 90 the legal pro.
cedurc in case Of a vacancy. IN case
Of regular elections. the case is clear:
a Senator has 70 be elected az the gen
cral election prior 20 tho vacancy that
is 90 occur. And IN like manner. no
doubt, the States will generally legis.
late to the effect, that in case Of
vacancy, tho filling of that vacancy
must be made first by Guberuntorial
appointment, and then at the next gen
eral election succeeding
Il is stated that Senator Bacon. Of
Georgia. Is the first case Of Senator
chosen by popular vote. Doubtless this
Is correct in essence, since Senator Ba-
con is the choice Of the Democratic
primary Of Georgia, and was as good
ss elected as soon as the result Of that
primary was known Bu, the actual
election both in Georgia and in Mary
land is yet TO occur.

It appears, therefore, that not only

der TO be entirely clear on the point
the explanation should be given
whether the prices quoted in 1870 were
on the legal tender or greenback basis

on the legal tender basis, they would
have TO be reduced TO the gold basis
to effect such a reduction as would
bring the greenback of that day on
the parity with gold then and now. On
the basis of the figures, however, the
