have nearly 5000, 900 women engaged
in industries, and there is not a single
trade or profession open to man that is
not equally open to woman. In our own
country the three industries into which
women have not entered are those Of
iron. steel and coal, but across the wat
er since the outbreak of this terrible
European catastrophe, women have
been forced into these industries, and
we find them operating the mines,
working at the benches, and manufac-
turing munitions equally with men.
The question is frequently asked
why women today desire equal privi-
leges with men in the political realm,
and we answer that in all the activities
common to women, the ballot mas be-
come an absolute necessity. In the
realm of religious activity woman is
fulfilling her threefold character of
sister,, Servant and succourer. One
needs but to enumerate the great phil
anthropic activities Of our generation
to see how largely they are controlled
and carried on by women. In the ex-
termination of the three great evils of
society, disease, poverty and crime,
women bear the greatest share, and
we appreciate as never before, how
strongly these three great evils are en-
trenched in what we call government,
and realize that women cannot help in
the solution of any problem in govern
ment without the power to exercise the
franchise" ev ".

the Belgian government has always
| observed the duties which were en-
| Joined upon her by her neutrality. AL
ready before the war. Belgium, un-
der England's influence, sought sup
port in military fashion from England
| and France and thus herself violated
the spirit of the treaty which she had
to guarantee her independence and
neutrality.
As to Belgium. .
Twice the imperial government de-
clared to the Belgian government that
1t did not come as an enemy to Bel
GUM, and asked it to spare the coun-
try the terrors Of war. Germany offer
ed to guarantee the integrity and in
dependence of the kingdom to. the full
extent and compensate for all dam
ages which might be caused by the
passage Of the German troops. II is
known that the Royal British govern
ment in 1887 was resolved not to OPP
pose the use of the right -of-way
through Belgium under these condi-
tons.
The Belgian government declined
the repeated offer Of the imperial gov
eminent. Upon her and those powers
which instigated her to this attitude
falls the responsibility for the fate
which befell Belgium.
The accusations about the German
warfare in Belgium and the measures
taken there in the interest of military
safety have been repeatedly refuted by
the imperial government as untrue.
Germany again offers energetic pro-
test against these calumnies.
Germany and her allies have made
an honest attempt to terminate the
war and open the road for an under
standing among the belligerents. The
imperial government asserts the fact
that 1t merely depended upon the de-
cision of our adversaries whether the
road toward peace should be entered
upon or not. The hostile governments
declined to accept this road. Upon
them falls the full responsibility for
the continuation Of the bloodshed.
Our allied powers, however, shall
continue the struggle in quiet conf
dence and with firm trust in their
right, until peace is gained which
guarantees to their nations honor, ex~
istence and liberty of development,
and which to all the nations of the
European continent gives the bless
ing to cooperate in mutual respect
and under equal rights together for
the solution Of the great problems Of
civilization" E

been staged in the house of repre-
sentatives-and even there, the issue
has not yet taken definite form.
The newly announced plan Of the
Nonpartisans, by which 1t is proposed
this legislature shall submit to the
people at special election a re-
drafted constitution. is not acceptable
to the montague forces, the objection
being based on the provision Of the
constitution that an amendment to
the constitution must pass through a
certain prescribed procedure, namely,
passage by two sessions OF the legis-
lature, followed by ratification at the
polls. They insist that the plan pro-
posed is simply a series Of amend
ments, included in one bill.
Under the leagues new plan, it is
proposed to circumvent the four-year
delay occasioned by amendment route,
by revising the constitution. 1t has
been pointed out by league men that
the legislature can set aside the pres
ent constitution, by submitting a new
one to the people. provided the people
approve IL.
The past three days have developed
a remarkable change in the constitu-
tional convention issue.
If the league plan now proposed Is
carried out, the re-drafted constitu-
ton, which is being prepared by a
group of attorneys employed by the
Nonpartisian league. would be sub
mitted to the house, accompanied by a
resolution referring it to the people
at special election next June.

JAPANESE STRATEGY.
The Clever Way . Willy Old Warrior
 Deceived the Enemy.

OeCStteO tp0 6neU1ys
 Many a man has failed to guess an easy riddle because the simple solution looked like a trap to him. Here is an instance in which this trait of human nature was cleverly played upon by Japanese nobleman.
 The old lord had been forced to flee with only 300 men before an enemy with 10000 and barely had time to reach his castle ahead of his foes. There were no endorsements near at hand, and he knew that if an attempt was made to storm his defenses he and his men would be dead before help could come.
 The enemy's forces advanced rapid ly, and scouts rode up near the castle to recOnnoiter. To their amazement, they found the gates, doors and win dows open and all the appearance of . holiday celebration. They rode hasti- ly back to inform their master that the foe was dancing and that bands were playing music in the castle.
 The powerful enemy was too wise a man to put his head into any such trap as that. The defenders of the castle must have some plan to slaughter his forces by wholesale or they would never invite him In that way. He drew back to a safe distance and en- camped to await developments.
 Soon the re-enforcements for the cas. tie came up behind, attacked him sud denly and defeated him, while the gar rison, which had risked all on its strat- agem. charged him Op the other side.
