WOMEN AS CITIZENS.

In a state which, like ours, has had
equal suffrage so many years, ana
which established it (by fair means or
fouD with so little vestige of struggle,
il is difficult for citizens to picture
the intense excitement that has prevail
ed in Chicago during the past weeks
For the first time women are register
ing, though the right of suffrage is still
limited. The preparations for regis
tration and for subsequent voting have
been little short of astounding. Mass
meetings have been held for the pur-
pose of instructing the women in the
proper use of the ballot; and the huge
Auditorium has again and again
proved too small by thousands
of seats to accommodate the
crowds that clamored for entrance.

send speakers from the platform
to address the overflow meetings in
the freezing cold of the streets.
The daily press has devoted un-
numbered columns to the most explicit
directions for the guide of women
when they register. The only forces |
hostile to female suffrage are those of |
theSs 4on, the dive, and every other
murky evil
Zeal for better government, for the |
choice of better officials, for the elm
ination of graft and vice burns like a
consuming fire in the breasts of hun
dreds of thousands of emancipated
women. Solemnly and with due self
distrust, they are dedicating them
selves to the task of making Chicago
better. Yet in spite of their exalted
mood, they display, in every act and
in every ambition, sobriety of judg
nent, self-control, and temperate feel
ngs. With such beginning and I'M

VENTILATION = NOT A LOCAL
INDUSTRY.

About the most popular thing in
Moscow, as we see it, is bad air
Everybody wants it. And everybody
to judge by the way things are done
here, is going to get it and plenty of
it. What people seem to banker after
is nice stuffy room, where the all
is so close and foul that tongues hang
out on chests. and the breath doesn't
even need short pants. When we read
notices for concerts, lectures, and
church services, we do not see just
the printed words as they appear on
the page. In our imagination we can
see below the announcement several
extra lines of cold, hard type bearing
this legend: Come to our church or
hall. We guarantee to furnish more
bad air and of viler kind than any
other place in town. We are down
on oxygen. We have got all our win
dows sewed up for the winter. We
keep a roaring fire in the furnace and

A LITTLE. HOT HAND" WOULD DO

Because he did not believe in woman

DISCUSS PRICE MAINTENANCE
National Chamber of Commerce Of Uni

Tonight.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1O.-Price
maintenance was expected to be the
most important subject under discus
sion today at the opening sessions of
the annual meeting of the national
chamber of commerce of the United
States at the Hotel Willard. Directors
of the national chamber decided at
their last meeting held at Rochester on
Dec. 10, that the matter of price main
tenance, because it falls within the
scope of antitrust legislation, should
be discussed by the national chamber
as whole. The meeting will continue
tomorrow and Thursday. Several hun
dred delegates from all sections of the
country are in attendance.

UNRESTRICTED IMMIGRATION.

One of the greatest pieces of legisla-
ton now before congress is the i'm
migration issue. To any mind that has
vision and an interest beyond today's
dollars and cents. the question of limit
ing or extending the immigration priv
ilege oyertops mere material problems
Upon those matters hangs only the de-
gree of our financial prosperity. But
upon the solution of the problem of our
foreign population depends the very
existence of our race in Il not distant
future.
We who live so far from those CEN
of immigrants daily arrive to make
their homes, can scarcely have more
than faint notion of the menace to
our nation in the wholesale introduce
ton of the excitable, low type of hui
man being from the south of Europe.
Just how titanic is that menace is
contributed to the February Century by
Edward Alsworth Ross, and entitled,
Racial Consequences of immigration.
Those who heard Mr. Ross's lectures
and addresses on the two occasions of
his visits to Moscow, will remember
the yirilty of his speech, the hard COM
mon sense of his clever deductions
from statistics, and the apparent in
exhaustibleness of his accurate in
formation These impressions are con-
stantly confirmed in reading the num-
erous articles and books which he has
been writing since becoming the dis
tinguished head of the department OF
sociology at the University of Wiscon-
sin.
Mr.. Ross's extensive travels, close
observation, and honest study have
made him a great authority on num-
Der of subjects relative to the nature
and progress of society; and among
these not the least important Is the
matter of immigration. Every person to
whom the high standard of the Ameri-
can people is a vital matter would do
well to read Mr.. Ross article before
subscribing to the views of sickly SEN
timentalists who would leave immigra-
ton wholly unrestricted. Here in the
great. wide, clean west we have paid
LITTLE heed to the disastrous results OF |
importing wholesale the lowest types
of southern European peoples. We
shall. to our loss and bitter pain, be |
better informed in 1915 when the |
worthless hordes to whom the steam
ship companies are now selling multi
tudes of tickets, have come to compete
with our labor and to lower the moral
and mental tone of our western states.

 Ninth and tenth year work in the rural schools came up for consideration and the discussion of the county super ntendents ended in the decision that they will not approve of such grades in rural schools which are in a district that has q union high school.
