against the women with the ballot are true in the matter of the recent defeat of MT. Harrison there should be no surprise. and the women of Chicago should not be regarded as exceptional.
 There is a familiar toast:
 Here's to woman, God bless her.
 once our superior; now our equal
 Wherever women discharge functions similar to those discharged by men .Ley VIII display about the same degree of civic morality. Honesty is a personal virtue, and not one belonging to and dis tinguishing a sex. Men whose vacations do notsthrow them into contact with the ruder element. and whose livelihood is not earned at work in which there is op- portunity for sharp practices, and conse- quent temptation, find it easy to main- tain high standard of right and wrong professor of Greek, a student of eth nology, on astronomer, is rarely subjected to the acid test for personal honesty> Pol iticians, business men and others whose daily bread is won by daily strife are subjected to frequent tests. Those whose morals remain unalloyed are of tough fiber as well as right leanings. Fortu- nately there are many such.
 Women thrown into the hurly-burly of business or politics would-and where it has been tried do-reach equality with men in the matter of honesty about as soon as they get their bearings in new surroundings.
 To expect the feminine vote to be "solid for reform would be to expect of human nature great deal more than anyone's experience with human nature warrants him to expect.

ADOPTING NAPOLEONS PL ANS

German forces in the west have been re- gently reduced by more than the equiv alent of four army corps, which were mentioned by the writer some three weeks ago-namely, the Second Army corps, Third Reserve corps and four other di- visions The writer also remarked that some six army corps of new formation might be. expected from Germany in the spring, and this figure appears in our telegrams from Petrograd during the last two days. It is early for them to appear and probably their constitution is not very robust. Whether they are all on their way to the east we cannot yet say, but the German writer who declares that the result will depend upon whether all the new German formations are sent east or not is certainly worth listening to.
 "Even if the Intention is not to begin a great invasion of Russia, but only to free Austrian territory of the enemy and to secure the lines of the Vistula and the Niemen, it is probable that the course of events will draw eastward many Ger man endorsements. It is on the cards that Austria, who is only indirectly in- terested in the western campaign, may have imposed upon her ally the direction of this new offensive. Clear our terri tory, Count Tisza may well have said, and free Hungary from this perpetual menace; then we will do as much vest ern campaigning as you please

WOMEN WITH THE BALLOT

 V1 OMEN in Chicago. in tEe opinion
 W of prominent Chicago paper,
 have proved a flat disappoint- ment to many friends of woman suf- frage." since they have begun to exercise the right to vote.
 The particulars behind the indictment are as follows:
 "They have voted in harmony with re- action They have defeated a reform mayor of demonstrated worth, who had every right to expect the backing of the women.
 His record of having retained Ella Flagg Young as head of the schools should of itself have guaranteed Mayor Harrison the votes of all intelligent women. They have instead repudiated Mrs Young and the mayor :.like.
 Chicago women could nave overcome the vote of corrupt classes controlled by interruptions ward leaders. They had a striking chance to line up sharply with the forces of decency III the democratic primary They could have shown the whole nation that the best womanhood of Americas second city is intelligently arrayed on the side of clean politics.
 'In this test they failed completely. Their help in defeating Carter H. Harri- son was not an astounding thing It was simply the mediocre, the stale and ordi- nary thing, which it was fondly hoped the women would rise above. Women are not purifying element in Chicago politics They are of the earth-very earthly"
 There are differences of opinion as to the quality of Mayor Harrison from .--e point of view of the reformer, and the fact that the mayoralty has been in the Harrison family for a gene .tion must have been powerful weapon in the hands of the opposition. But if the charges laid

The James sBoxs'

'I had long heard that Frank James of the James gang WAS never so bad a man as his brother, the notorious Jesse, and now gentleman who knew him writes in way that confirms that im- pression,' said an old citizen.
 "In a letter to the New York Sun, Julian Street, the author, says in part: Last spring I spent some hours with Frank James, and days with men who know him well, and gained very definite impressions of him as he was then. I feel safe in saying that Mir. Strom is altogether wrong in declaring that Frank James never reformed and was a criminal all his life.
 "'As an old man he was painfully, even ludicrously, pious. He quoted the Bible freely, expressed the most orthodox sen timents and illuminated against sensa-
 tiona1 literature and moving picture shows. Since his death I have read an article in the Kansas eCity Star telling of his, having gone into the show busi- ness at one time, but having withdrawn from 1t because he discovered some dis. l honesty in connection with the way the
 show was being conducted.
 Personally I believe that in his late years Frank James was pathetically eager for the good opinion of his fellow men. never saw Jesse James, bu, from his pictures and from all that have heard I believe he was man oi
 the criminal type. Frank James was not He was more of the pioneer type. He
 was intelligent and resourceful. He hat humor. His face was not tough but very strong. Under normal conditions ht
 might have been wild young man. but doubt that had he not been confronted | by the horrors of border life In those times he would ever have become cut throat. Tn this opinion am backed py the men who knew him best D

THEMISTOCLES

When Themistocles was asked by
his host at dinner party to enter
tain the guests by playing the lutte, he
replied that he could not play the
fiddle, but that he could make small
town great city. We have in this
nation many politicians who are good
"fiddlers." but they cannot make "A
small town a great city. We are over
run with orators who can play upon
the passions of the people, but they
cant put brick and mortar together
We need builders.
Let those who hunger and thirst for
power understand that the highest
glory of a statesman is TO construct,
and that It is better for man that he
should build public highway than
that he should become Governor OF a
state. and that he start plow than
that he become the author OF law
The true test of craftsmanship is the
plow and the hammer, so let thos
who would govern, first build.

THE LAYMAN'S DUTY

There never was time whch
preachers and politicians formed an
unholy alliance that civilization dld
not shrek out and Christianity cry
aloud. Since the beginning of gov
eminent, politicians have sought TO
decoy the ministry into the meshes OF
politics and make them carry banners
in political professions They have
taken the ministry to the mountain
top of power and offered to make them
monarch OF all they surveyed, and
while most of them have said, Get
thee behind me Satan" few have
fallen with a crash that has shaken
every pulpit in Christeudom.
