But when you grow older, when

Nobody saves in the Latin quarter

Marion went on hurriedly.

leaning against the wall.

Helen was far from being an art

gloomy studio, the shadowy corners
and the uncertain candle light, which
lit up the faces Of those gathered
around the midnight supper.

Helen HuTTieS
Marion, bareheaded, took her down
the street, made her promise to bring
Warren to Nine. JOuven's some eve
ming that week, put her on the bus,
and stood waving her a goodbye from
the corner.
How young Marion seemed, was
Helen's strongest impression. How
care-free-how full of JOY of living.
Although they were the same age,
Helen felt curiously older, as though
her life was half lived. while Marion's
seemed only beginning, with the pos
sibilities of a great success still before
her.
There are times when every married
woman, however, much she may love
her husband, thinks of the possibili-
ties Of some independent career that
might have been hers, had she not
married.
And now as Helen left the bus and
walked slowly towards the hotel, in
the background Of her thoughts was
stirring of vague dreams and ambi-
tons that had long lain dormant.

Those Final Appeals.

There is a peculiar sameness about the final
appeals always made by the campaign managers
on tho eve OF election. as anyone may easily
satisfy himself by running back over the news
paper files Of previous years. The reversal Of
the relative situation s the most noticeable
change. the democrats being now the ones to
point with pride" and to ask for an endorse
msnt in the nature of a vote of confidence, while
the republicans, at present in the minority in
the national halls OF legislation, are doing the
"denouncng" and "condemnng" The waning
progresslves, on the other hand, are anathematiz-
ing both the old parties with equal virulence and
vehemence, trying to convince people that moth
ing good In government can come until their new
party is enthroned
But now, more than at any time heretofore
the people have refused to become wildly ex-
cited over the campaign exhortations, their
minds being distracted and diverted by the great
war drama being enacted across the water. This
does not mean, however, that our citizens have
not been paying thoughtful attention to vital
questions OF their own internal affairs. The
main difficulty confronting the voter especially
in Nebraska, is the interminable length Of the
ballot and tho confusing number OF offices to
be filled, making individual selection very diff
cult IL is the duty OF every citizen however, to
exercise his suffrage intelligently according to
his best information and honest judgment Let
party considerations govern only where political
issues are involved.

A General Burden.

Speaking for numerous shippers, state Rail-
way Commissioner Clifford Thorne a. Iowa says
the railroads offered but one new argument
the effect Of the warm their plea to the In
terstate Commerce commission for the right to
advance freight rates. II so, and II the old ar
guments we're previously rejected as falling to
justify the increases. then IL would seem as II
the roads had lost their case For the burdens
Of the war are entailed upon all business inter-
ests, so that the problem is a general one. The
merchant, the manufacturer the wage worker,
might with equal justification, demand larger
margins Of profit because of the hardships en-
tailed by the war, IL subject to the commission e
regulations. The merits of the case surely will
not be allowed TO rest entirely on that plea.
One significance OF the railroads position in
this connection is the assumption Of prolonged
fighting abroad yet this can be nothing more
than guesswork. The railroads. naturally, would
give themselves the benefit OF the doubt. I'm
less they have stronger ground than this on
which to urge the desired increases. the public
will be disposed to doubt the validity of their
claims.

A TIP to the South.


After all the demonstration made over the
crisis in cotton in the south, II is most gratifying
to learn through governmental reports of the
enlarged activity of cotton ginning. From Sep
TENDER 90. to october is. OF this year. far more
cotton was ginned than during the same period
year ago. and In Arkansas. Louisiana, Mis-
sissippi and Oklahoma the mills turned out the
largest volume in their history. So that while
the south and. indeed. the entire country. Sc
verely feels the effect OF the war on the bumper
cotton crop of this year. things are not as bad
as they might be SO long as the gins are more
active than usual
But the point we had most in mind here
was Secretary Houstons advice to the south
that II should enlarge its cattle culture. with
larger meat supplies as the supreme need in the
line Of food products and with the south in the
grip. as some OF it's own people have expressed
1t. of cotton-raising oligarchy, now is the time
for its farmers to go to raising larger herds
The last census shows as lamentable lack OF
cattle raising in the south II does OF the diver
sity Of crops. The country sympathizes with the
south In its present predicament.' which the
south rightly insists is more or less Of ma
uonal disaster All the more reason, then, for
II yielding to the advice of other sections in its
agricultural pursuits.

For The shor, R.,lat.

OMAHA, Oct. Sl.--To the Editor Of The
Bee: am an advocate OF the "Short
Ballot" and have been for a number OF
years. II has been my observation that
but few Of the voters can learn enough
about candidates for office to vote in
telligently under conditions as they are
at present The direo. primary has put
the duty of selecting candidates upon the
Individual voter and II the voter does not
acquaint himself with the merits OF the
many candidates there is no one but
himself to blame II The wrong men are
put into office. 1t is not right how
ever, 20 put an unreasonable burden upon
the voter and / think that II is entirely
unreasonable to expect the average voter
TO investigate the qualifications OF hun.
dred or more candidates The average
voter does not have time and can
truthfully say that there Is no way in
which he could Investigate thoroughly n
he had the time. But II we reduce the
number of elective Offices and leave Il
TO those elected TO fill the other Off
ces by appointment We will be able TO
investigate fully the merits Of the candi-
dates. There viii be fewer in number
for there win be fewer offices to fill by
election. Instead Of hsing confused by
the great multitude % names on the bal
lot as is the case nov. the voter will
know that there will be tut a few offices
10, vote on and viii be more inclined 20
take an interest in looking into the quali-
fieations OF those appeahng for his votes

that tho vemen OF Nebraska would not

the Nebraska law now reads that women
are exempt" John l.. Kennedy. also a

ing to deceive the voters, and further
said that Il IL deliberate lie" this
statement that women may have to serve
as Jurors II equal suffrage becomes a
law. Still another lawyer. Mr.. Cornish,
says ''he believes that women should
serve as jurors" Possibly q statement
from mere layman might not be out
Of order. As the Nebraska law now
reads wcmen do not serve as jurors, be-
cause we now have only a male elector-
ate, but not one OF these brainy 90 law
yers has explained to the unsuspecting
public that woman suffrage, II carried,
changes the constitution OF the state, and,
therefore, will change all laws which
now exempt women from state and civic
duties. Women cannot be exempt from
jury duty under woman suffrage, except
BY special legislation. Name a single
woman suffrage state where the women
are exempt from jury service. The SUI

Law" VIII some one Of them please

Those Belgian Farmers.

Large numbers Of Belgian farmers of the
better type, who had the means to get away, are
said TO be arriving American shores They
will seek employment on the farms In New
York and other eastern states. They are but the
forerunners, We may be sure, OF yet larger
streams Of refugees from not only Belgium, but
other war-cursed countries abroad. It may be
that many OF these sturdy fellows may find
places In Canada, from which thousands OF
young men have gone TO the aid Of Mother Eng
land In the present conflict Be that as Il may,
the United States continues to hold out cordial
welcome to that type of manhood that loves
liberty better than life, and viii find, as It al
ways has found, plenty Of room in its vast do
main for the refugees OF Belgium Germany,
France or any other OF the great nations Of
Europe. And this hegira will not cease with
the war; indeed. It probably will only then have
we'll begun.
Incidentally what mingled emotions of Joy
and sorrow must fiji the bosoms OF these early
corners. who have escaped the miseries OF their
people at home--ioy at their own blessing, sor-
row at their relatives and countrymen's thrall-
