WOMEN IN POLITICS

The women will improve the poll
tical issues. Instead OF there being
far-off policies they will get down
to everyday and home life. For in
stance. The Chicago Herald describes
the new issues brought to prominence
by woman suffrage thus:
The instinct Of the home was
obvious throughout the series Of
resolutions. The demand for
health certificates as the prere-
Quisite to marriage; the insistence
upon physical training In the
schools; the demand that the il
Legitimacy laws be brought up to
date; the requests for better
schools, penal institutions and wise
care of the mentally i'll; even the
coming of cities and the recommen-
dation of anti-injunction law arise,
all from the protective memories
Of the home.
That will be a great improvement
over the merchant marine, free trade,
pork barrels, San Domingo, diplo-
macy international relations, which
have little or nothing to do with the
life Of the individual. The women are
gong to bring politics to the front of
life. Their influence will give a new
emphasis to public affairs,-Ohio

STATE AID IN ROAD BUILDING

Without any desire to start an ar
gument, for there is really no room
for argument in the matter Allen
county is going to lose the best op
portunity she has ever had to improve
her highways at little expense if the
county commissioners at their con
ference next Monday fail to order the
paving OF two miles Of the Marion
road.
Ii the road is paved the county will
pay but 20 per cent. of the total cost.
And that sum will not keep the pres
ent road in repair for a very great
time. Ii we construct the road the
state vii lnot only pay 50 per cent.
of the cost but will keep it in repair
Tor all time to come. 1t means get
ting two miles of brick-payed road,
and repairs on it forever, at the cost
OF keeping the present one in repair
and its poor, even when in repair
for half-dozen years.
Sometime this year the federal gov
ernment is going to opportion the
sum OF S2,0OO,OUO among the coun-
ties VI ONO that have taken adVan,
tage OF the states oter to pay fifty
per cent of the cost OF road improve
ment out OF the auo license revenues.
So il Allen county, through her COM
missioners, fails to heed the warning
and turns down at next -,4Onday's
conference the proposition to accept
state aid lOr paving two miles OF the
Marion road 1t is going to stop, right
off the reel any chance Allen county
has for getting her share of Uncle
Sans two million dollar road appro-
priation. And it may discourage the
state to the extent that they will re-
fuse future aid.
The couny commissioners are bus
mess men, and they know good
business proposition when they see it.
For that reason we are, along with
several thousand other Allen county
citizens, hopeful that they will look
at the Marion road improvement in
the light of good business, and make
their report accordingly-Lima Times
