SUCCESS
IN H STATES
SAVES TIME AND ENERGY IN
SECURING THE NEEDED
REFORMS.

In California. the equal guardianship
bill has been defeated year after year
until women got the ballot. Then lie
very next legislature passed it. In ths
state of Washington, the advocates Il
shorter hours had been trying for eight
years to secure an eight hour day Law
for women, without success. When
the women were enfranchised, tie very
next legislature passed the law. The
same was the cas- with a whole series
of bills.
In wy oming and Idaho, the repeal
of the laws that formerly licensed gam.
bling is generally credited to the en-
%franchised women; likewise in Califor
MIA, Utah and Colorado the defeat OF
recent attempts to legalize racetrack
gambling. We are scornfully told that
Massachusetts has been able to keer
such laws off the statute book without
woman suffrage. Massachusetts could
but those western states could not. Ivy
all five of them. the anti-gambling laws
are better than they would have been
without woman suffrage. Here again
the anti-suffragist is trying to prove
the uselessness of dumb-bells by meas.
uring the muscles of two different boys
instead of measuring those of the same
boy before and after.
The anti-suffragists tell us that =
number of the non-suffrage states have
state wide prohibition. while in all the
suffrage states except Kansas liquor
can be sold. But in every suffrage
state less liquor is sold than would be
sold in that state If woman did not
vote. We had a striking illustration
of this very lately. In Illinois. on
April Z, 1914, the official returns show.
ed that SO townships went dry by the
women's vote when they would other.
wise have gone wet. Yet, because
West Virginia has no licensed saloons.
while Illinois and Colorado have many.
the anti-suffragists insist that woman
suffrage does nothing to promote tem.
perance! Could there be a more rans.
parent fallacy? And this is the type
of the whole reasoning of the anti-suf'
fragists in these comparisons.
Many of the claims made by the anti.
s%uffragists in this connection are Who'll.
ly baseless. They say that no law for
the benefit Of women and children was
every passed where women vote till
after it had been passed In some place
where ome do not vote. This would
be un: important, ven If true; but it is
not trre. The first chfldren's court
and the first widows pension act orr.
ginated in Australia. Colorado was the
first state to establish the advanced
principle of "contributory delinquency"
j. e. to provide that when a child
breaks the law, if 1t can be shown that
any grown person contributed to the
child's delinquency by neglect or 9th.
erwise, that person shall be punished
as we'll as the child. This Colorado
law has since been copied by a long
list of other states. Colorado was al.
so the first state to establish a mini.
mum wage of $50 per month for teach.
ers. lin the rich city Of Newton, Mass,
one Kindergarten teacher gets only
800 a year, and the maximum for the
assistant-teachers in the public kinder.
gartens there is 5000. Other examples
might be given. but these will suffice.

Experience has shown the wisdom of not only having more general body of men and women to supervlse this work but of having the work independent of any religious. business or fraternal organization.
 With this in mind tho Charity Committee appointed a suJ-commit- tee consisting of Rev J F. Fry Father Mandin and E. A. iuiIam to consider the matter of reorgani- zation of the work and if deemed best to call a public meeting when the matter might be properly pre- scented to the people

branch fire department station in Tombstone canyon With reference to Wednesdays fire on School hill lt has also been pointed out that the need of an auxiliary department was made very plain. While this fire was handled spleudidly and loss kept to the possible minimum, 1t was readily apparent to all onlookers that an auxiliary department might easily enough have found a great deal to do if things had not operated just as well as they did
 Delay in establishing the branch department up Tombstone canyon ap- pears 10 be entirely due to inability of few members of the Council 10 agree as to which side of the road shall have the fire house at the general location which has been set, tied upon. 1t was pointed out yes terday by several in discussion of Che great need of the branch station that the delay in the Council be- cause of the comparatively trining question between two members, might easily prove highly costly to the district and the hope is general that at the next meeting of the body the disagreement will be put aside in the interests Of the welfare of a couple of thousand homes and the branch station ordered constructed imme- diately.
