From the New York Times
Ten years ago the Chinese woman
suffered from unkindliness. from
ignorance. and sometimes from bru-
tality. Today she is given equal
franchise with men. Ten years ago
practically all OF the Chinese women
lived under the discord Matching
matriarchal system, where the pri-
mary wife. however ignorant apd
unreasonable. held unquestiohed
sway over secondary wives, daugh-
ters-in-law. daughters, and slave
girls.
Today the graduates Of American
schools and seminaries are demand
ing their own homes. the control OF
their own children. and a full voice
in the economy of their homes.

the situation and opened new POSSIBLE
tiles. Mr.. Clement offers himself a fat
footed and loyal Republican while Mr.
Fleetwood was so careful in his an
nouncement that many people have
questioned whether he intended to be a
party candidate or not. Mr.. Clement is
very positive man and very active aft
err anything he wants, while Mr.. Fleet
wood is more inclined TO SEX only that
which can be secured without arousing
too active opposition. In other words,
Mr.. Clement is fighter and Mr.. Fleet
wood is more diplomatic.
The statement of each candidate that
they would make public their campaign
expenses indicate there is to be no at
tempt to buy the nomination this year
and that is gratifying. MIR. Clement is
OF the millionaire class that has been so
generally represented in the governor
ship of Vermont while Mr.. Fleetwood
comes nearer to representing the man OF
common means. Mr. Clement too is
man of recognized business ability and
a pressing need of our state government
is good business administration. On the
other hand Mr.. Fleetwood is a man of
good judgment and has shown ability
to conserve the comfortable competence
he possesses, "A poor man for governor"
is likely to be an effective appeal, but
the announcement by Mr., Clement that
he will make public his expenses is sure
to he to his advantage.
There are other features not so fav-
orable for Mr.. Clement Many people
will remember bis revolt from the Re-
publican party in 1905 because it would
not nominate him tpr governor, and this
will dampen enthusiasm for him. Then
Mr.. Clement cannot receive solid sup.
port in his own county. In fact it looks
as though much distance is necessary TO
increase the enchantment for him. Men
who have swung Rutland county against
Mr.. Clement in the past say they will
actively oppose him now. Mr.. Fleet
wood has distinct advantage here be-
,ause his own county will stand solidly
behind him and he has no enemies with
Sd grlIdges to actively oppose him.
Fleetwood has friends in all parts of
he state and unless some other can
lidate appears he would seem TO stand
, fair chance of winning over Clement. |
But Clement will have good deal of
strength, and il is not safe to count |
,ither man out OF the race at present.
Since writing the above, r. f. Howe |
las put out an announcement that he is !
Wiling to be a candidate. He has an
'riginal and courageous platform that |
.wakens some thought.--St. Johnsbury |

ANOTHER QUARRY SLIDE.
Not So Much Damage Done at West
Rutland as Recently.

Rutland, Aug. l7.-Again Saturday
morning there was a slide OF rock in the
Mullin marble quarry at West Rutland
This, however, was not so serious as
the big cavern of few weeks ago, when
thousands of tons of rock left the wall
and roof to plunge several hundred feet
TO the bottom of the pit.
What is believed to have been single
big scale fell about $3.50 o'clock Satur-
day morning, while he quarry was un-
occupied, destroying the trestle for the
incline railroad which was being rebuilt.
The trestle was almost entirely ruined
in the big fall. d. J. Davine's carpen-
tiers had been at work putting the tres
tie back into condition for the past five
days, and had made considerable pro-
gress
The stone fell from directly over the
place where the trestle was being re-
paired, and where the workmen had been
employed Friday night at quitting time.
The accident emphasizes the reputation
Of the quarry and Others of the Ver
mont Marble company plants for luck.
AL or practically all the cave-ins have
been at night, when there has been no
one employed in the danger zone,
d. j. Smith, assistant superintendent
said last night that he had not examined
the walls for danger signals since the
fall Of Saturday, and did not know
whether men would be sent back to
work or not. After the cavern some
weeks ago the officials thought the walls
and roof were solid and safe.

degree. Of course, its benefits are mere
ly conjectural as yet, but the contempla
ton of the possibilities of the canal is
such as to lend strength TO the belief
that no accomplishment in recent dec.
AIDES can approach it in consequences
and as the canal becomes fully used
there is bound to be realiza tion of some
tremendous advantages At the present
time, American people feel sense OF
pride that the great world benefit was
carried out under American auspices
American direction and American mon
ey--and that the canal, while open to
all the world shipping under proper re.
stricrion, is to be essentially an Amer
lean canal; that is, the canal of the

Wireless Censorship.

| The state department has been max
ing almost laughable mistakes in its yea
to uphold the neutrality of the nation
absolutely unnecessary and contrary to
precedent. After taking legal advice
Washington officials hastily changed this
TO an order allowing the shipment of all
contrab band goods. Now it seems that
the censorship of German wireless sta
tions, as great a departure from pre-
cedent as the embargo on contrabsnd
may likewise be cancelled.
No doubt, the administration thought
that it was doing the customary thing in
establishing government censorship on
the Sayville, L. l., and Tuckerton, n. j.,
wireless station to prevent the trans.
mission of naval and military orders.
But, as the case OF contraband, the ac-
ton merely showed the need of some
real authority like John Bassett Moore
to keep the state department from max
ing blunders.
The question of wireless and neutral
ity first came up in the Russo-Japanese
war. The besieged Russians in Port Ar
thur established a wireless telegraphy
station which established communica-
tions with another Russian station set
up at Chefoo, seventy seven miles away
in Chinese territory. The stations we're
erected only to transmit military dis
patches between the garrison of Fort Ar
thur and the main Russian forces.
China. after persistent urging by Japan,
finally decided that the use of the sta
ton at Crefoo was a violation of Chinese
neutrality. and so ordered it DESTROYED.
This occurrence suggested to the con
ference at The Hague OF 1907 rule pro-
hibiting belligerents from erecting, in
neutral territory during war time,
wireless station, or from using any sta
ton established before the war solely for
government dispatches To avoid any
doubt as to the extent of the prohibi.
ton. further article Of The Hague con
yention provided: a neutral power is
not called upon 10 forbid. OF restrict. the
use on behalf Of the belligerents OF tel
egraph or telephone cables or of wire
less biography apparatus belonging to IL.
or 70 companies or private individuals"
In other words. no neutral nation need
forbid the use Of an ordinary CONNER
eial situation for government oOmmuni-
cations.

shadowy time in the future 10 further re-
strict the use Of wireless apparatus. il il
