Discuss Woman Suffrage.

a writer in this issue of the Tele-
gram In discussing woman suffrage
suggests that the question as to
whether women shall be given the
right of, suffrage in this state should
be discussed pro and con and that the
newspapers should open their columns
for such discussions.
The subject will prove q live one,
IN which every one will be interested
and the Telegram sees no good reason
why its columns should not be open
for such discussion, legitimately and
intelligently made, by both men and
women.
So far as the editors OF the Tele-
gram are concerned they are not OPP
posed toowoman suffrage but are open
to change Of conviction. However, the
question ought to be submitted to the
women themselves first to determine
whether5a majority Of the. women Of
the state want suffrage. IL they
should decide that they do. the ques-
tion should then be submitted, to, all
men and women In the state to de-
ter1Mne whether majority of the
citizens both men and women, want
equal suffrage in West Virginia.,
II is not probable that the question
will be submitted in that way, how
ever. and discussions along that line
would be useless.
All those who desire to discuss the
questionein free, open. cdifying way
are welcome to use. the columns OF
the Telegram whether they be. for OF
against equal suffrage. The question
will scarcely develop into partisan
one, and It will not be necessary tc
discuss the question from party
Viewpoint. Republican and Democratic
newspapers alike will render ibes1
service by affording the people them
selves an opportunity to present their
views and come to an understanding
in the matter
The question is not all onc-sided BY
any means

NEWF0UNDLAND.

Newfoundland is called the Senior
colony because It was the first thing
John Cabot stumbled across when, he
inaugurated the successful idea OF
splotching the globe with British red,
It also shelters the islands Of ST.
P.erre and Miqnelen, the last remnant,
OF French sovereignty in North Amer
lea. Thus, in an odd historical sense,
this rugged island is. both first and
last.
It seems like a caprice Of Nature
that the soil OF Newfoundland should
have been made so barren, and the sur
rounding sea SO rich. Its wealth Is
In the nearby water rather than ,ipon
the land. There are so many lakes
in its area that fully one-hird OF the
land itself is covered by water.
Fish Is the legal tender Of these
hardy north sea islanders. Everything
depends upon old King Cod and his
fellows OF the flnny tribes. II one is
to keep in range Of the conversation
here, he must know. all about the. mar
ket price OF cod livers and how mucl,
salt 1t would take to cure a quintet OF
mackerel. On a certain day the news
that Skipper Ambrose had taken 5000
cod Dish in one haul of his trap caused
more discussion than thefcabie report
that Woodrow Wilson had been elect
ed the twenty eighth president Of the
United States
In case the reader should ever have
a desire to catch a cod, there is one
simple procedure to remember. First
locate a little fish called the caplin,
and then walt. 1t is neyerfailing
rule OF the deep that wherever there
is a 4caplin there is alwaysfa cod just
one jump behind him.
Another reason why the INHABITANTS
Of Newfoundland have to fish for a
living is that Mr.. Reid Of Montreal
contracted for SO many OF their fran
chises that there are NO more induce
ments left for them on land.

a,The Connty SALARIES Bile,

a silly objection made to the
county salaries bill pending in the
legislature is that it takes the burden
on the state and puts it on the coun-
ties. That is exactly what ought to
be done. County officers serve their
respective counties and those counties
should pay for their services. There
may be exceptions to the rule and In
such cases, II the county officers rem
der services to the state in addition
to what they do for the county, they

change its. character, for 1t Is and will
remain an enterprise of the presidents

the executive applied to the Demo-
cratic senators, was not warranted.
There are other senators besides the
nine who broke away from party

the bill, but WHO fear to speak, out

they were amply repaid when Joyce

to the heart Of every newspaper writ

There was quite a SILVER too among

said that Futurism had died with

who said that Futurism was not dead,
but changed and democratized.
