ponds upon the political plane Of the
community concerned. Since ii il
well that the public schools should
be controlled by the people. II is in
evitable that popular opinion, ex-
pressing itself through political sgen-
cies, should have all TO do with the
making or unmaking of the school
boards. Theoretically, women have
an equal voice with men in the con-
duet Of the public schools Of the sew
eral states in the American Union !;
practically, they have not. Men in
four fifths Of the states, putting the
ease roundly. control political ma
chinery absolutely. Where women
may vote for school board candi-
dates, as a rule, men have ii in their
power TO dictate to the candidates
chosen. In numerous instances men
have power to appoint school boards.
In majority Of instances men con-
troll the purse strings and can at their
pleasure restrict or give freedom Of
action to school directors.
This will account largely for the
fact that the salaries of women
school teachers are uniformly low.
Let the situation be stated as II has
been formulated in a report Of the
committee on salaries and cost Of
living to the National Educational
Association at its meeting in St.
Paul: The large majority Of teach
ers are women says this report, and
as such are still without the right Of
suffrage in most states, therefore the
funds from which their salaries are
paid are under the control Of offici-
ais in whose selection they have no
vote. II should be clearly recognized
by the National Educational Associa-
ton, therefore, that the relation Of
woman suffrage to the honest and
fair adjustment Of the salaries Of
women teachers is vital and immedi-
ate.' The association at its session
recently indorsed the finding set
forth here.
"There is logic in the demand for
this recognition, it seems to us, il
there is logic in the demand that
women should be compensated equal.
ly with men for the same amount and
quality of work. The principle Of
equality, if allowed at all, should
naturally be permitted to govern
throughout. Women teachers as a
rule are now not only not receiving
adequate compensation, but they are
being Disseminated against in favor
Of men. What seems to be needed
is a public sense of the justice Of the
claim that adequate salaries should
be paid public school teachers ac-
.,ording to the ability Of these teach
ers and without any regard to sex.
That this sense may be developed
and sharpened, il seems to be equally
necessary that sex shall no longer
mark IA dividing line in citizenship"

Arrest Agents Of
Milwaukee Road
DELIVERING LIQUOR TO INDIVIDUALS
Will Test Right Of Carriers to, Bring Liquor Into
KOOtCna County

Some time ago the legal de-
partment of the Milwaukee rail-
road company announced that
after a careful study of the Ida
no law and the decisions of the
supreme court, they could find
nothing in them that prohibits
common carriers from transport
ing liquor from without the state
and delivering it to individuals
in dry territory when same is not
intended to be used for an unlaw-
ful purpose and that private use
of liquor is not unlawful.
The company therefore in
slructed its agents to receive
goods of this nature, when ten
dered and to transport and de-
liver them. At the same time
County Attorney Wernetie an
nounced that if the company at
tempted to deliver liquor in Koot-
enai county he would have its
agents arrested and prosecuted.
The law requires that record
must be kept of all such ship
mcuts which must be cpen to the
county officials and the public,
generally. 4
Within the last few days the
county attorney has been making
an examination of these records
of the company here and at Occur
dAlene. So far as is known,
but one delivery has been made
here, that Of a case of beer to
Il. NJ. Castleo. One was also
found in Coeur d'Alene, a case OF
bottled beer having been deliver
ed to J. l.. Noelker, a member OF
