grounds: either she does not think she is we'll equip
ped, mentally and morally, to vote as hundreds OF
thousands of ignorant licentious men, or she does
not think she ought to exercise her qualifications i
the capacity of citizen. .-.
If she holds the first view, of course, there is
nothing more to be said from her standpoint for ii
she comedies her mental and moral inferiority that
ends it.
But if she thinks that while she is qualified to
VOTE it is privilege and right she should not ex-
ercise, that is no reason why she should attempt to
deny that right to other women who wish to exer-
else it. That is policy that i'll becomes any one,
particularly of the fair sex.
One should no. be compelled to eat cake if one
does not like it, but neither should the who dis
likes cake attempt to prevent those who like cake
from having it.
Every woman should be at liberty to refuse to
want the right to vote, but no woman should feel
justified in denying that right to such women as
may wish to exercise it. Such an attitude is most
ungracious .....

NEED FOR MARKET FACILITIES.

When the District appropriation bill was in the
House, provision for construction of shelters fol
farmers vehicles at the market in street was
stricken out on point of order. When the same
provision reached the Senate and an effort was
made to restore it, opposition was based on the fact
that such structure would be Disagreement be-
cause it is in the immediate neighborhood of the
National Museums beautiful new building How
ever, being assured that the structure would be
temporary in character and could be removed at any
time, the item was renserted.
There is need for attention to the general subject
of regional markets in this city, in systematic and
permanent way. 1t is quite true that hay and prod
uce market would be impossible on the splendid
Mall of the future. But city must have such ia
ctes. 1t is necessary that its ground plan and de-
velopment scheme provide for them. There is more
appreciation of the relation of such utilities to the
great problem of living. costs than ever before.

ries Of Players
OF Other Days.
JOHN E.
OWENS.

TIE ofo piaygoer is wont to decry
the modern methods of our pro-
i ducers. But our managers of to-
day would indeed be tempting
rate II they were to mete out to this
public the type of plays over which
our daddies and granddaddies rayed.
But 1t Is also fair to state that such
a portrayal as John z. Owens. SoIon
sninsie could not be revealed to mod
err playgoers. For perhaps we have
not In all the world today so consum-
mate an artist.
One may only conjecture as to what
Owens would have achieved with the
aid Of Belasco. But his Solon Shingie
could gain nothing from progress or
modernism.
Owens was born in Liverpool. His
stage career began in 1870 He played
as many as sixty leading parts in one
Of the forty years he trod the boards
His Caleb Plummer was indeed a rev.
elation-spontaneous and the perfection
of humor, yet with touch Of tender
ness that impelled tears where smiles
were already halfway on view. This
was Owens greatest gift. a genius for
investing one potent line with action
enough for an entire scene.
To describe Owens recital of his ex-
periences with "a bar'l Of apple sass
in the character of Solon Shingie would
be impossible. Oh, that science =End
artifice had made possible the perpetua-
tion of this one Owens portrayal. For
this was an artistic effort that had to
be seen and heard to be appreciated.
Owens, like nearly all Of the success

CONGRESSMAN DAVID J. LEWIS.

There is report that President-elect Wilson has
been, perhaps still is seriously considering Con
gresham David ]. Lewis of Maryland for Postmaster
in connection with the post, none has the positive
business, statesmanly qualifications tnat repre-
sented in Mr.. Lewis. This may be said without dis.
paragement of any other man whose name has beer
brought forward -~-
Mr.. Lewis is specialist in postal affairs. Before
he came to Congress he had been close student oil
transportation problems r general. Arrived here, he
cast about for phase on which he might effectively
specialize; procedure, by the way, which if more
generally adopted by legislators would result in a
higher average of constructive work. He took up
the transportation of package freight and mastered
the question, with the result that ne became con-
vinced that the parcel express as Government
monopoly represented the one right solution When
he first addressed the House on the subject, an
ambitious new member, there was disposition to
maze" him. 1t will be long day before the hazers
forget how Lewis hazed them. He knew his sub
ject. He was induging rhetoric, no bluff His
performance of keeping his questioners in the air
was a reminder of the wonderful discussions of the
cotton tariff by Dolliver, which made tariff history
Perhaps Lewis would be more useful on the
floor of the House than at the Cabinet table. That
nent equipment for the conduct of the PoStoffce
Department there can be no uncertainty. He not
only knows the subject, but he sees it with the eye
of an imagination that looks toward future of mul-
tiplied services and magniied usefulness.

A RIGHTEOUS RESIGNATION.

1t is reported tnat the resignation of DR.. Taylor
as President of Vassar College for Women was an
expression of his dsaffecton with the fact that So
cialistic and woman suffrage sentiments have been
gaining ground rapidly with the student body there
Dr. Taylor is opposed to suffrage, is fearful of the
interest in what he considers socastc deas and has
found his position-so it is alleged uncomfortable
The boy" it has been said is the father to the

girls should properly be the intellectual mothers of
the woman-for why not woman ?-who shall be

BARBARIsM, NOT REVOLUTION.

II is difficult to conceive that even the elder
Diaz, of the iron fist and the unbending WILL could
nave assumed responsibility for such barbarism
the execution of Francisco Madero at this time would
be. The world will not believe trumped-up charges
tnat Madero plotted to poison assassinate Huer:s,
Diaz, and others. 1t was in Maderos rower, and
quite within the law, only few weeks ago. to
execute Felix Diaz as a traitor He preferred, as
he has uniformly preferred, the part of mercy and
moderation. Had he treated Diaz and Reyes
then as Diaz has since treated Gustavo Madero,
there would have been coup detat in the capital
The right of revolution is one thing; national
and international law is pretty well formulated as
to what it is about But the right of revolution is
not license to savagery, to cold-blooded murder
If any one act of the regime could rouse
this country TO demand for Intervention at what
ever cost, if would be the murder of Francisco
Madero. Moreover, entirely aside from the posi-
bility of intervention it would stir the warning ele-
ments in Mexico 10 conflict of greater proportions
and more vengeful quality than any yet known.
This is the place for vigorous American diplo-
macy to interfere. Our State Department ought to
serve unqualified notice on the new dictators of
Mexico that murder of this character would bring
swift and sure punishment
