Should Defeat
Amendment No. 2

The Civil Service Reform association
which initiated the proposed civil service
amendment TO the constitution at con-
siderable expense TO its members, has is
sued letter to the voters of Colorado
asking them TO vote against it.
The action was taken after it wa.
found that the amendment would place
in jeopardy the tenure of office of the
present policemen and firemen of the
city and would probably rob them of
any benefits from the pension aad relief
funds which have been built up by them
from assessments on their salaries for
the past twelve years.
With the friends of the proposed
amendment now opposing it, there is no
reason why anyone should vote for it.
The amendment places all employees
not only in Denver, but in every other
city of the state, of over 1000 inhabit-
ants under commission appointed by
the governor.
This is return to the machine pol
itics which cursed Denver when the gov
ernor appointed the fire and police
board and the board of public works. 1t
will be even worse, because all employees
in Denver and every other city of the
first and second class will be appointed
from lists furnished by commission,
named by the governor.
This is machine politics with a ven
gcance. Whether people believe in civil
service or not. they should vote NO, on
this amendment which is No. . on the
ballot.

ulations on the prospects in Colorado

Long-Prayed for
Emancipation
OF Children
(By MRS. EDWARD p. cosr1GANo

l am for the reelection of President
Wilson because of my deep interest in
childhood, peace and social justice. Many
national administrations have come and
gone, but until President Wilson lent a
helping hand the National Child Labor
committee, of which 1 am a member,
knocked in vain for saving federal legis-
lation for unprotected childhood. His Is
the honor of this new, long prayed for
and heart-warming emancipation.
So in the midst of many contempor-
aneous indictments by his opponents to
violence, bloodshed and war the presi-
dent has kept his head and firmly held
the nation in the paths OF peace
So in the field of social justice as q
whole, thru federal investigation and hu-
name laws, the cause of the workers
has found itself raised to a higher level
of governmental care and recognition
than ever in our country's history. There
fore we urge such further service to a
land too long denied such quality of
service.

jealousy in Woman.

In ordinary times, when no world
movements stimulate, the chief exas-
peration of woman resides in jealousy.
1t differs from male jealousy, for the
male is generally possessive, the fe-
male competitive. l suspect that Eu-
ripides was generalizing rashly when
he said that woman is woman's natur-
al ally. She is too sex-conscious for
that, and many of US have observed
the annoyance of a mother when her
son weds. Competition is always vio-
lent, so much so that woman is gener-
ally mocking or angry if man praises
ever so slightly another woman. If
she is young and able to make claim
on all men, she tends to be still more
virulent because her claim is on all
men. This is partly due to the mar
riage market and its restrictions, but
it is also partly natural. No doubt be-
cause it is natural, woman attempts to
conceal that jealousy, nature being
generally considered ignoble by the
civilized world. In this respect we
must accept that an assumption of
coldness is considered a means of en-
ticing man. 1t may well be that, where
woman does not exhibit jealousy, she
is with mastery skill suggesting to
the man a problem-why is she not
jealous? On which follows the desire
to make her jealous, and entangle-
ment.-W. L. George in Atlantic.

TEACHING MORALS IN SCHOOL
Lessons Not Known In America
Given in Japanese Educational
institutions.

In the American Magazine Ray Stan
naTd Baker gave the following account
of a curious feature Of Japanese school
instruction:
Visiting the japanese schools in
Hawaii several years ago | was i'm
pressed with one feature unknown to
American schools. This was an in
teresting series of colored pictures
with texts in the Japanese language,
illustrating the model conduct expect
ed of Japanese children upon a great
variety of occasions. These were dis
tributed about on the walls OF the
schoolrooms and frequently changed.
When l expressed my appreciation Of
this work one of the teachers said:
How shall a child know how to act
unless he is taught?" which seemed to
be a soundly sensible remark. And
yet in America (until recently, while
religious teaching has been barred
from the public schools, no substitute
involving thorough instruction in con-
duct or morals has been developed.
The upbuilding of moral ideals, upon
which character rests, has been left
to such incidental and indirect instruc-
ton as might come out of the school
work. The result is that large num-
bers of American children-not only
those whose home life is poor or whose
church connections are weak, but
thousands of others-leave school with
only the haziest ideas of what is right
and what is wrong"

SHOULD HE DEFEND GUILTY.
Attorneys Duty Has Been Made Plain
by Some of the Highest Brit
ish Authorities.

Ought a barrister to defend on a
plea of not guilty a prisoner who has
confessed to him privately that he has
committed murder or some other Of
ense with which he is charged?
The question was raised by the bar
committee at Shanghai, and Sir Ed
ward Carson, when attorney general,
and Sir Robert Finlay, X. c., M. p, ap-
proved the reply which the general
council of the bar sent, says the Lon
don Globe.
This reply lays down that if the
confession has been made before the
proceedings have been commenced it
is most undesirable that an advocate
to whom it was made should under
take the defense, but If afterward, or
in circumstances that the advocate
cannot withdraw without seriously
compromising the position of the &C.
cused, counsel's duty is to protect the
client as far as possible.
The mere fact that the prisoner con-
fessed to his counsel is no bar to that
advocate continuing to appear in his
defense, nor does the confession re-
lease the advocate from his impera'
tive duty to do all that he honorably
can for his client.
