ON THEIR WAY.

With an enthusiasm many no
doubt will think worthy of a better
cause the bloomer brigade of woman
suffragists has started on their walk
to Washington.
There were sixteen of them at the
command to fall in, but how many
will survive the 230-mile hike is, of
course, problematical, considering the
state of the roads.
Whether the enthusiasts win any
votes or not the trip won't hurt them,
barring a few calIouses or touch
|of neuralgia, unless their feelings are
hurt by the reception they may re-
ceive in Washington.
They have now reached Philadel-
phia and as it is impossible for Phila
delphia to warm up to the brand of
femininity some of them may get
several chills.

PEACE AND WAR.

Signs of relief will be heard on all
hands at the evident ending of the
revolution in Mexico without the
necessity for intervention by the
United States. That Madero is out
and the Diaz-de la Barra faction in
is merely detail. The disturbance
which might have been fraught with
so much danger to the peace of the
world is at an end.
Now war threatens us right here.
Railroad war. A strike of locomotive
firemen is threatened, which means
that fifty-four railroads, with $4,000
miles of trackage, 6S0,0 employees
will be affected.
Conferences are being held and by
tomorrow morning you may know
whether you will be able to make
that trip to the Inauguration.

MINISTER'S REWARDS.

The Kansas City Star comments
unfavorably on the remark addressed
to a ministers meeting by a clergy
man who advised young men not to
go into the ministry. 1T is too hard
a struggle. and the remuneration is
too meager," said the speaker.
The Star remarks that this advice
CRATES unpleasantly, and refers to
the magnificent men of the past who
plodded the way footsore and weary
for the Christian faith.
While the Stars position is per-
fectly correct, ministers are human
They may not ardently crave auto
mobiles and orientaf rugs as much as
men of more materialistic temper.
They do crave a fair education, good
physical development and competent
medical advice for their children,
some household assistance for their
wives, bit of a chance to travel and
rest, and a modicum of uplifting
books and magazines.
These cravings are perfectly nor
NAL. But probably not one minister
lin five can realize them. He may be
willing to 'plod the way footsore and
weary" as the Star editor kindly
suggests. But when he must ask his
wife and children to plod, too, he
feels more hesitation about laying
! the burden of sacrifice on those who
may be less strong than he.
1t is not for any of us to require
men of other professions to make
sacrifices that few would be inclined
to undertake. If few of oul
luxuries could be diverted to help tn,
,churches and the charities, the give
would gain quite as much added
Happiness as the receiver.-Jacksol

DUTY OF THE NEWSPAPERS.

Various significant instances have
occurred of late in which public Off
cials have bitterly denounced the
newspapers for attacking them in
heir official capacity.
A court held two Montana news

3ther a stockholder in a paper, guilty
Of contempt for assailing a decision

opinion that the paper had overstep-
ped it's legal limitations

Other public officers (not judges

have of late been using irate terms i

The situation brings to the for

Of deep concern to the papers and tn

fatal mistake in not selecting "A

HELL TO BE FIREPRooFs

A Gary newspaper last night stated
that an asbestos factory will be locat-
ed in Gary that will employe 1000
men. We trust SO but our World
almanac shows that IS persons are
engaged In mining the total output
of asbestos in the u. S.
Seven thousand men working on
asbestos products would be enough TO
supply the whole world and then
leave enough to hang drop curtains

The question is.

NC quSSlloH lS.
What are the rights, limitations
and duties of the papers in attacking
public officials?
So far as judges and legal decisions
the papers should go slow in in
sinuating improper motives and in
bitter, vituperative assaults No
matter whether judges or decisions,
or both. are to be recalled. the courts
should have greater measure of
protection than other public depart
ments because in them, in the final
analysis, rest the peace and order of
society, the settlement of vastly i'm
portant business matters and the
perpetuation of the republic. Shake
the faith of the people in the courts.
make this lack of faith demonstra-
tive, and effectively SO, and then you
will have nothing less than anarchy.
Of course the right of the papers to
argue that decisions are wrong or
against public policy should never be
abridged. Arguments are not biased
opinions or vilifieation. Newspaper
editorials showing that decisions in
workingmen's compensation and en-
ployers' liability cases were against
public policy resulted in the amend
ment of laws in many states. so that
the courts were enabled. and in some
cases practically directed, to award
employees proper protection.
But in those instances the original
fault was with the particular Iegisla-
tion and not with the courts, which
had interpreted what they believed
to be the true meaning of the laws
| and the intent of the lawmakers.

legislative officials (the powers of
