SEX EQUALITY UNDER THE LAW.

Judge Hunt, of the federal court of New York, is the latest convert to the doctrine of sex equality. He has announced hereafter that no woman convicted before him Of smuggling shall escape prison sentence be- cause she is woman. His observa- tion has convinced him, he says, that many women, having paid fines, have gone off laughing in their sleeves at the government
 There is a wholly commendable ef- fort, in many states of widely differ ing conditions, to make the laws equ- ally fair for men and women-to re- move statutory limitations on wom- ans control of property, right to la bor, right to her earnings, right to possess her children in case of do- mestic difficulties, right to hold of flee and vote, and the like. It is only logic that there shall be no sen timental avoidance of giving to wom- an equal penalty with man for the violation of any laws.

ARGENTINE AND MIR. ARMOUR.

Norman H. Armour, one of the country's beef magnates, sailed from New York for Argentine the same day that a cargo Of 12,000 beef quarters arrived from that country. This is the largest shipment of beef ever received from Argentine and is look ed upon as the opening of an in creased trade in that line.
 It is not pretended that MT. Ar mour is going to Argentine on a pleasure trip. Probably he is anx- ious to learn at first hand if there is source of beef supply that may be drawn upon for the benefit of the consumer without paying tribute to the packers combine.

SATURDAY, JANUARY IT. 1914.
THE PRESIDENT ON ALASKA.

President Wilson is unreservedly in favor of the early development of Alaska, for the individual and the nation, and has openly pledged his support to legislation to that end. says the Tacoma Tribune.
 Alaska as storehouse," said the president in his message, should be unlocked One key to it is sys- tenn of railways. These the govern ment should itself build and admin ister, and the ports and terminals it should itself control in the interest of all who wish to use them for the service and development of the coun- try and it's people"
 A Democratic nation that has con- structed the Panama canal, that has made Havana, Colon and all the Ca nal Zone and all Porto Rico health full and clean-that capable democ- racy is not afraid of administering a pioneer system of railways. It does AOI DCAAONO LAuS So V" Al q puOAAS AA6A way that has rails on it is any more dangerous than to own public high way that has ruts in it. It does not fear it's ability to administer or op- crate the transportation of its "blue jackets" and it's hospital corps.
 President Wilson's brief, positive statement of Alaskan development is the continuation act of the struggle, begun in the Ballinger case, to save a great national "storehouse" from monopolistic greed and open it to the opportunity of truly individualist initiative.
 Legislation in line with the presi- dents recommendat 'ons is the special order of business h the House of congress now and will be made the special order in the Senate as soon as the currency bill is out of the way. The promising outlook is that early in 1914 Alaska as storehouse will be unlocked

have watched the work and the
results that Mr.. Center has done the
time he has been here. and it is very
noticeable the new interest that is
taken in the improved methods of
agriculture. while there are many
good books on advanced farming, 1t
is q fact that most of we farmers have
to "be shown" and it has proved itself
out in other states that the only affec-
tive way is to have a county advisor
in the county. and am very glad to
pay my share to have a good man
in the county.
A Logan township farmer writes
from Kempton:

GAVE IMITATION
OF BAREFOOT BOY

Blessings on thee little man
+" Barefoot boy with cheek of TAM"
a. Whittier.

An inebriate who later gave his
name as William Jones, caused a SEN
sation in the south end of the city
late Thursday afternoon by giving a
lifelike impersonation of Whittier's
barefoot boy.
Apparently he found his shoes and
socks uncomfortably warm. At any
rate he "ditched" the coverings Of his
pedal extremities, and wandered up
Reeves avenue with his "tootsies"
bare to all Of the four winds of
heaven.
A good sized retinue Of children
soon collected. and accompanied him
on his wanderings. Later some Of
the residents of the district noticed
the barefoot pedestrian, and notified
the police.
An officer was sent to the scene. and
although Jones objected strenuously
to being arrested. and gave the guard
ian of the law spirited chase, he
was finally overtaken on Belmont
avenue near Ninth avenue, and was
taken to the police station.
After becoming "sobered up" he
paid his fine, and was released.
