A CHANCE FOR THE PEAoEMAKER.

There is presented. or there may soon be, an
opportunity in Europe for the benevolent Mr.. Bryan
to put into practical shape his well-known peace
theories Peace between Russia and Japan was
effected by Roosevelt but only after long and bloody
war. Bryan can go better. He may be able to
avert general in Europe and thus win the Nobel
prize and niche in the gallery of the Immortals.
1t was not long ago that secretary of state
took careful survey of the world and remarked, as
he thought his arbitration treaties that be-
fore the nations of the earth so pacically in

era of peace and good will A few arbitration
treaties and of the efulgence of Mr.. Bryan's
benevolence and universal peace would be here

tages and the surrender of his to foreigners

Sacred Ignorance

Few people know that the right to
go to school had to be won by the
American women, as the right to vote
is now being won. The first free pub
lie schools in this country were for
BOYS, The one at Dorchester, Mass,
was supported by the taxpayers for
200 years before a girl set foot inside
of il. Sometimes the girls were al
lowed to attend during the two sum-
mer months, while the boys were on
their vacation. In other districts the
teacher was allowed to give the girls
two hours a day, outside the regular
school hours. In more than one case
from FIVE to seven of New England
winter morning were the hours
chosen. The fight for an equal chance
in education for women has continued
throughout history as a nation. and is
not vet finished. Witness the fact
that New Jersey club women are to-
day raising money for women's col
lege at Rutgers, a State institution,
receiving appropriations from the
State treasury.

Sacred Poverty

In 1854, when Elizabeth Cady
stanton and Susan B. Anthony had
the first bill in the world to give
married women the control of their
own earnings introduced in the New
York legislature, no married woman
could legally own a penny. The
clothes upon her back belonged
legally to her husband. A lifetime of
labor in the home did not legally
entitle her to them. If she worked
for wages her husband could collect
them and spend il he wished. If she
sewed for neighbors and had a little
savings bank account. he could draw
ont the money on that account with
ont her knowledge or consent. Legally
it belonged to him.
/. The remarks of Assemblyman Bur-
nett of Onondago county, during the
discussion on Mrs. Stanton's bill in
the New York Legislature have been
preserved to posterity He said, They
do not appear to be SATISFIED with
having unsexed themselves, but they
desire to unsex every other female
in the land, and to set the whole
community ablaze with unhallowed
dre The object of these unsexed
women is to overthrow the most
sacred of our institutions, to set at
defiance the divine law which de-
clares man and wife to be one, and
to establish on its ruins what will
be in fact and in principle but a
species of legalized adultery" Thus
early was the charge of free love-
made against the suffragists. New
York state passed the bill, however,
and its married women's property act
has been copied by most of the
civilized States and countries of the
world. Let's make New Jersey the
fret Eastern State to give her wom-
en- the vote, as New York was the
first TO give her her own savings.

HOT SHOT FROM THE GOVERNOR.

Sharp and very much to the point was Governor
Fielder in a verbal statement to sundry Newark
and Essex County politicians, transmitted by his
private secretary L. Edward Hermann The utter
ance was delivered at the Sea Grt military camp,
and was quite in keeping with the warlike environ
ments
The governor had been listening to stories of
Newarkers who told him, confidently how they were
planning to do up" the Newark Democratic admin
istration and do likewise to the Democratic organi-
cation throughout Essex County, by running can
didates on the petition basis after the primaries,
thereby killing off a Democratic mayor, Democratic
State senator Democratic sheriff, Democratic as
semblymen, ct cetera.
They listened eagerly and expectanty for words
of cheer and encouragement from the Democratic
governor In their scheme to annihilate Democratic
hopes
They failed to receive the yearned-for words
The governor looked his amazement. The plot
was to his liking. In fact, it was abhorrent to
him. But these words handed out by the
governor through the medium of his private secre-
tary L. Edward Hermann:
1.-THE governor wishes 1t to be distinctly under
stood that he will take part in any fight within
the Democratic party, before after the primaries
in any county in the State The governor expresses
the hope that he has made himself clear on this
point and that it will not be necessary for him to
say to speak palmer or more emphatically
This a crusher and when 1t was later learned
that the governor had remarked that candidates
nominated at the primaries entitled to party
support and should not be hampered by afterprimary
petition candidates, the spirits of the indictments,
previously buoyant and efervescent, dropped per-
.eptibly.

SUFFRAGE SNAPSHOTS
BY MINNIE j. REYNOLDS

and others, a bill was introduced
in Congress. The object of the bu-
reau was to investigate and pub
lish facts concerning infant mortal
ity, birth rate, child labor, danger
Gus occupations, juvenile courts, and
so on. 1t was natural that women
should want such an institution. They
have always looked after children in
private life, and some of them had
progressed far enough to see that they
ought to do it in public life. There
was bitter opposition to the bill,
based mainly on reasons of economy.
That Congress had spent $3.50, 900, 900
on pensions, $3.50, 100000 on plant in
dustry, $15), 100000 on animal industry
nearly $1,000,000 on the Bureau of
Chemistry, 100000 on the Bureau of
Entomology, in all of which consid-
cradle classes of voters were inter-
ested. Yet it fought bitterly the prop
osition that the government of the
United States should spend $4,000 on
child welfare, women's great and pc
culiar industry. Women find the sa-
cred name of economy invoked when
ever they want any money from the
public treasury for matters in which
they are specially interested Just
the other day in a public speech at
Newport DR.. Katherine B. Davis,
head of the New York city depart
ment OF correction, stated that New
York city could spend $1s,00O,O00 for
marble halls for judges, but could not
afford to buy stockings for women
prisoners.
The ball given by the Women's
Political Union last December at the
Palace ballroom was one of the most
notable events of its kind ever given
in Newark. This fall it will be re-
peated, and with Mrs. Belle Tiffany
Sutherland as chairman of the ball
committee and Miss Florence Haines
as vice-chairman it is going to be a
record breaker.

FDlcATIoN WITH A PURPOSE

mendous, when one realizes the scope
of its endeavor. The trouble with
what is quantity but most express
sively called book learning" is that
it is almost invariably wholly unre-
lated to the immediate needs of the
students life, while the business man
is in a perpetual and practical uni
versity during his whole active life.
He trains himself to solve harder and
harder problems, passing constantly
from the simple to the more complex.
until his mind gets a grasp of things
and he gains a vigor of execution
which would be impossible to the
man who has only book training"
| believe that the average college
graduate feels that, while he has
gained in his college course that
which no money can buy, he has also
lost something of infinite value in the
world of realities. His mind has
been wonderfully interested in his
various studies, but many of these
studies do not touch modern life or
help to solve its problems. A consid-
cradle part of his four years has been
spent with the things of the Middle
Ages. He has been interested in his
Greek and Latin, but he feels that
the same time spent in studying the
actual conditions of his own day
would have put him in closer touch
with his own century.
Many college graduates feel that
they are somehow out of touch with
their own day and people of their
own times. They are not quite in
line with them. They are out of
step. They hope to get back, expect
to, but many of them never do
have often heard college gradu-
ates say that they would have been
very much better off practically and
would have gotten along better in
life If they had spent two of the four
college years studying the actual con-
ditions of the life of their day taking
business courses, vocational courses;
that part of the time spent in a
f1rst-class business college would
have been better than the two extra
years in college. Now our vocational
schools are big step toward remedy
ing this evil for one class of stu
dents. Let us hope that before
long this practical course of fitting
for life work will spread on all edu-
cational planes.

HARBoR APPROPRIATION IN DOUBT.

Failure of the river and harbor bill to be passed
at this session would call halt many important
harbor improvements and might compromise Newark's
chances of getting the needed appropriation for deep
ening Newark bays In the carrying out of the citys
harbor enterprise That the bill contains extravagant
and even unnecessary items is true enough but the
opposition to its passage all the ITEMS good
bad and Indifferent.
AS the trust bills have been given precedence over
the river and harbor bill in the Senate it is assumed
that, the trust legislation will be prolonged the
Senate will not further extend the session. but will
leave rivers and harbors to the next session; but
there is always very strong popular sentiment back
of such appropriations, and probably the senators
will proper to pass the river and harbor bill be-
fore adjournment.
