IDAHo,S EXPERIENCE.
(Flk River SehtinCD.

ftlk NlNCl pCillllCIJs
Idaho has had woman suffrage now
for a good many years and II is time
to note some OF its defets. Its good
qualities have been blazoned abroad
by all those who would curry favor
with the women or who fall in love
with anything that is new-female
suffrage or ANYTHING else.
The principal fault to be found with
women as voters. Judging by Idaho's
expcricnte. is that they seem TO re-
gard themselves as women voters,
not as citizens of Idaho in the same
sense in which men do. This does not
mean that men are better or more in
telIigent than women but that they
seem to have broader outlook, are
less prone to think themselves as men,
In fact, no zone ever hears the male
vote" spoken of as in any sense unit
on any subject. Women seem less
able TO hook at problems -in=the alb
stract as citizens, but tend 10 con
slider them in the concrete as women,
This tendency is fostered by the
club women, to give a name of their
own selection to class of ladies,
usually elderly, childless. with indus
trious husbands and more spare time

than is good for them-or for their
neighbors. They. are harmless and
really add to the humor of life when
they expend their energies on discus
sions of the poets, culture, world poll
tics or art carefully copied from the
Encyclopedia Britannica. But they
do not stop at cultivating hobbies in
tended solely to impress an admiring
world with the massive intelligence
and sprightly wit which they think
they display. They have, particularly
among those of little birth and no
breeding, an incurable itch for med
ding with the affairs of their neigh
bors and the community at large
These never fail to appear before
each succeeding legislature with some
pet schemes, good, bad or merely sill
", for the making over of others in
to the image set up as CONNIE il faut
by the temporary standards of the
little stuffed prophets who may be in
vogue at the moment.
The schemes are usually less objec-
,tionablc than the argument that they
must be adopted because the women"
so demand. These good club women
Remind the observer of the Seven Tai
Tors of Tooley Street, who began a
petition to the crown with it: I'VE,
the People of England" Still. the wo-
men of the state are to blame for not
plucking these old hens whose cackl-
ing is so annoying even though not
really harmful.
* Female suffrage in this state has in
Creased the total about one. third
according to the observations Of most
local politicians, In its general APP
plication it has had no effect what
ever, either good or bad. 1t seems to
be agreed that families usually vote as
units and it does not appear that the
opinion OF the women is either more
or less effective in forming the family
view now than before. The net re-
suit does however, minimize the im-
rortance of the bachelor voters, who
split along the usual lines, as against
the families which vote as units.
An advantage anticipated by suffrag-
lists was that women would do more
for children and the home" than
men. This was founded on false as
sumption and has therefore proved I'M
true. The theory was that women
we're more interested in and would bet
ter understand the effects of laws up
on children and family life than men.
Which is on its face bosh.
The home is to fit the whole family
for the everyday life of the everyday
world and the task of making a living
therein. If women know more of that
task than men they are better fitted to
handle it. Men spend theid lives and
money on their homes and families.
Speaking of those who have homes and
families, and unless there is a man
there is seldom either home or family.
Women do the same. and there is no
thing to show superior devotion on
either side. +,
The best that can be said of woman
suffrage in Idaho is that il has done
little harm-perhaps even that may be
an eXaggeration.

The general summary of the
weather for the state for the month
of April is given as follows:
The month, as whole. was unusu-
ally mild, the mean temperature hav-
ing been almost degree higher than
the highest previously recorded in
April in Idaho. It was the third
successive month with temperature
above normal. The close of the month
however, was marked by the sudden
appearance of cold period of unusual
severity, attended by freezing temper
ature and the heaviest snowstorm ex-
pcrienccd so late in the season in
many years, This storm began in the
western counties on the night Of the
goth and was slowly advancing over
/ tn'. eastern counties as The month
closed. This storm caused some loss

beneficial The low temperature was
accompanied by such abundant mois
ture that no material damage was dorc
to tender vegetation. This month was
practically free from damaging frosts.
and was favorable for the advance OF
vegetation. BY its close seeding Of
small grains was practically complete
except in some of the more elevated
districts. Fall grain and early sown
spring grain made good growth. Late
sown spring grain terminated rather
poorly, owning to lack of moisture,
but was well supplied with moisture
as the month closed Fruit trees we're
generally havily set with fruit Grass
abundant, and except over limited
areas where clover and alfalfa rad
wlnter-killed or were attacked by
cutworms, these crops promised carly
and heavy returns. There was slight

precipitation and less than the normal
amount of sunshine Streams were
lower than for many years at this sea-
son. Some of the smaller projects
were without water for irrigation. and
the prospect was for general short

of the season.
