No man-especial1y If he is mar

she demands. Take the earth and
give US peace. but why does woman
long for the BALLOT
When all is said and done, Is not
the selection of the butcher more i'm
portant to the home than the election
of mayor; Is not the employment Of
the dairyman far more important
event in the life of the children than
the appointment Of postmaster; is
not the selection of books for the
family library more important than
voting bonds for Jail and court house?
Why does woman lay aside the i'm
portant things In life? Why leave the
substance and grasp at the shadow?
Be it said to the credit of woman
hood that it is not, as rule, the
woman who rocks the cradle that
wants to cast the ballot; It is not

A FATALLY FOOL ORDER.

The lives of the wife and children of
General John ]. Pershing were Sacrificed to
a senseless military order governing the Presl-
do, an order which could have been found
ed upon nothing within human experience.
In case of fire in the Preside no alarm
could be sent to the San Francisco fire dt
partrnent until the means of fire fighting i'm
mediatelv at hand were exhausted. Here a
woman and her children were permitted to
burn up before it was officially ascertalned
that the military reservation apparatus had
failed.
The man in whose brain such an order
was conceived probably had in mind the dam
age by water, sometimes done in the case of
a fire which might have been extinguished
by single bucket of water by patent
fire extinguisher. Some home owners, in
fact, most home owners, in case a fire can
not be extinguished in the beginning would
rather not have it extinguished at all. If
the house and its contents are utterly destroy
ed, the settlement with insurance companies
is greatly silnplifed. A wife and children,
however, are not furniture If saved, even
in somewhat water damaged state, they do
not contribute to complications in subsequent
settlements.
Fire fighting organizations sometimes
Use more water Than seems to the owner Of
tie burning building or the laynlan to be nee
essary, but ,feir object is 70 pm olt the fire
and do it i-'ickly, to the erd that adjacent
property may not be damaged. A fire is
something with which it does not do to
temporize In case of fire, 'watchful wait
ing" and experimentation are out of place.
1t is said that the order at the Preside
will be rescinded. That is not the only one
probably that will go by the board when a
system Of national defense shall be taken up,
for there are others just as senseless

ANOTHER JOLT FOR cHAs. MOVER

That the Western Fedc. alton of Miners
is dwindling away is apparent from many re-
ports concerning this labor organization. A
recent announcement says: Charles Meyer
president of what is left of the Western Fed
Grafton of Miners, has lost his suit that he
started in the federal court in Butte, the
case having been thrown out by the judge.
Meyer endcavored to get possession of the
union property in Butte, claiming that when
the charter was surrendered the
holdings should go to himself, Guy Miller,
Charles Tanner and few more of the gang
who have been bleeding the miners for a
good many years.
Iron Ore, of Ishpenig, Michigan, COM
menting on this incident says:
"Moyer tried the same sort of tactics
in this city two years ago, when he tried to
get possession of a building here which is
owned by the local union and several hun
dred dollars which was deposited in one of
the banks. The case went to the circuit
court, but the verdict was against Meyer.
The Western Federation of Miners has reach
ed the end Of its rope and Meyer and his
crowd are trying hard to- scrape together
what assets they can. They have been in the
grating game for good many years and
know the inside and outside of the game, but
the miners are now wise to them and they
will have mighty difficult time bleeding
them again

It is question whether the governors
conference is all worth while Our friends,
the governors, have been in session in Bos-
ton for several days, making speeches, read
ing papers and reviewing battleships. The
object of the conference was a comparison of
view about issues which state governments
now face. 1t appears, however, that the gov
ernors have not devoted great deal of time
to comparing views. The Hon. G. w. P.
Hunt of Arizona, was there with his speech
opposing capital punishment. Cole Blease,
former governor of South Carolina, took oc-
casion to reiterate his remarks regarding the
justification OF the mob. Other governors
were there with their pet hobbies and sue
ceeded in riding them to a considerable ex-
tent. In several of the speeches the COVER
nors seemed to feel that they had not been
treated right at home and had gone to Bos-
ton to get their names in the paper.

UNIVERSAL PEACE

This nation is now in the midst Of
. controversy as to how best to pro-
mote universal peace. That question
we will leave for diplomats to dis
cuss, but peace within nations is no
less important than peace between
nations and 1t is heavily laden with
prosperity for every citizen within
our commonwealth.
Many leading politicians and Outlines
political platforms have declared war
upon business and no cabinet crisis
ever resulted Many men have STOOD
IN high places and hurled gas bombs"
s4 industry; thrust bayonets into bus
iness enterprises and bombarded a.
rfculture with indifference. Party
leaders have many times broken dip
lomatie relations with industry; sent
political aviators spying through the
affairs Of business, and political sub
marines have sent torpedoes crushing
into the destiny Of commerce. Dur
ing the past quarter Of Q century We
have fought many q duel with prog
ress, permitted many politicians to
carry on Q guerrilla warfare against
civilization and point . pistol at the
heart of honest enterprise.
No man should be permitted to CRY
out for universal peace until his rec
ord has been searched for explosives,
for no vessel armed or laden with
munitions of war should be given .
clearance to sail for the port Of UNI

have peace. but peace. like charity.

GEORGIAN CHIVALRY.

The kindest thing we have recently heard
about Georgia was said by the bravest citi-
zen of Georgia, who has gone on record and
who has teen warned to remain out of the
state-former Governor Slaton. Unfortun-
ately it is an expression of Misrepresentation.
Governor Slaton said at Los Angeles
the other day that the lynching of Leo Frank
was perverted manifestation of southern
chivalry which makes the protection of wo-
mems virtue its chief care.
Continued the former governor: ut
was not race hatred that lynched Leo Frank,
but the chivalry of the south uncontrolled by
reason of Justice. In the hot, blind emotion
which prompted the act there was an element
which challenges admiration Shockingly
unjust as was its manifestations, it had its
foundation i'll the impulse of the strong to
protect the weak, defenseless women.
do not fear to return to Georgia.
But for two things we might accept
this belief of Governor Slaton. But as to
those two things the state of Georgia has
restrained any manifestation, perverted or
otherwise Of southern chivalry. A state
which fixes the age of consent at ten years
and keeps it there in spite of effort to raise it,

Inspiration OF
THE COUNTY FAIR
H Peter Radford-

When you enter the agricultural de-
1artment Of the county fair, you feel
your soul uphfted and your life takes
on Q new power-that is the fnspira-
ton Of the soil You are overpowered
BY the grandeur and magnifcence of
thu scene-that Is the spirit Of the
harvest You can hear the voice Of
nature calling you back to the soil

doom. II IL q good chance to spend .

and perfection of nature and to sweet
en- your life with its fragrance, elevate
your ideals with its beauty and expand
your imagination with its power.
These products as food are fit for
The gods. and as an article Of COM
merce they ought to bring tip-top
prices ON any market in the world.
The products Of the sou are teachers
and preachers as we'll. Their beauty

meut, their perfection stirs the genius
LII a l1oISS IhOA1 putty mOu-
els for growth Of character and their
marvellous achievements excite our
curiosity and we inquire into the won
derful process of nature.
Before leaving the parlor Of agricul-
tire where nature is plrading in her
most graceful attire and science Is
climbing the giddy heights Of perfec-
ton, let US pause and take retro
spective view. How many of you
know that after these wonderful prod
ucts are raised, they can seldom be
marketed at profit? Take the blush

fed to the hogs by the carload last

market and as result hundreds Of
farmers have lost their homes. Cot

begging on the market at less than
cost Of production.

It is also well to remember that there

TWO KINDS OF OFFICIALS.

Attorney General Wiley E. Jones says
that as long as the prohibition law is on the
statute books he is going to enforce it and
that is the only policy which conscientious
officer can follow. Communicating with a
county attorney, he says that it is not for an
executive or administrative officer to read in
to the constitutional amendment something
which does not belong there or to overlook
something which the people have put into
the amendment.
This is N direct contrast to the policy
of Governor Hunt and it is not possible for
a good citizen to honestly endorse both. The
attorney general, speaking with reference to
the prohiI itior: law, says that official should
not allow his individual opinion to influence
his official action with respect to the enforce
rnent of law No one should have difficulty
in subscribing to that sentiment-we doubt
if the governor would refuse to if cornered.
in that case, however, he would probably
qualify it by recommending it as good policy
for others, but not for himself.
The attorney general has now intimated
that he will insist that the condemned felons
at Florence be resentenced according to law
and their sentences carried out, and in this
we have the two attitudes in direct contrast,
for the governor will doubtless continue to
attempt to set aside the capital punishment
law, endorsed by the people at his own in
sistence.

A state which permits the employment
Of little girls eight years of age in mills or
other employment is not very chivalrous.
That's Georgia, too.
A state which permits the debauching of
a girl at ten or the destruction of the health
of a girl of eight, certainly does not concern
itself greatly in the protection of the honor of
its women.

EXCHANGE SYSTEM
PROVES BIG HELP

n ERLIN. GERMANY, Dec IS
IL Through the generosity of Ameri-
cans. II reading rooms and recre-
alton halls for prisoners of war have
been erected in camps throughout Ger
many. The average cost of these build
ings has been 5000 marks (S15O0) but in
many cases camp commanders have
added large sums from their personal
fortunes in order that the libraries
might be more ornate or spacious.
The conditions governing the gifts
from the Americans have without ex-
ception been such that none Of the
money might be expended for books.
and it has been the task. therefore. OF
the Committee for the erection of sol
diers' homes in the east and southeast"
to gather literature of all kinds and
send il. not only to the II halls. but
also TO the most extended trenches.
Literary Demand Varied.
ON the German side at least the war
has drawn in men from every walk Of
life. including students. teachers and
others of a very high degree of educa-
ton The literary demands from the
front, therefore, have been extremely
varied. and the book suppliers have
been put to it to lay their hands on
technical works and other volumes.
Have Exchange System.
Between France. England and Ger

a sort of working agreement by which
books in the three languages are eN-
