Moving Toward Enfranchisement.

The cause of woman is advancing in
the world. Remarkable changes have
taken place in the relationship of women
to political affairs. Next Monday a
woman will take her seat in the Ameri-
can House of Representatives for the
sidering, in its plan of reorganization,
The enfranchisement OF women in man
ner similar to the suffrage granted to
the women OF Finland. The German
reichstag general committee has for the
first time on record summoned
woman to testify at a hearing on mat
ter OF national Importance. In the de-
nlards for p liberalization of the fran
chise III Germany is heard the voice of
the women asking for equal political
rights. The women of England. long
suffering under their deprival of pohti-
cal privileges and until now patri-
otically suspending their activities dur
ing the prevalence OF war. are again
urging consideration of their claims, and
the British parliament has indicated
willingness quickly to enact enfranchis-
ing legislation. The former premier and
the new premier have strongly indorsed
suffrage.
Woman's enfranchiscment is but Il
matter of time. No land that is wholly
free can forever deny to women the
right to vote and to take part i'll the di
rection OF national affairs The United
States has made rapid progress toward
this end. and that progress will continue
without question until the women have
equal political rights with the men
throughout the country. Additional
steps forward toward this DEVELOPMENT
have been taken during the past few
months, suffrage bills having been passed
by several of the state legislatures Con-
stantly the opposition to enfranchise-
ment is weakening. The general admis-
sion Of women to the polls may come
speedily as u result of world changes

The Jitneys.

An important step toward regulariz-
ing the supplementary transport service
instituted as a result of the street car
strike has been taken i'll requiring those
who run ''jitneys" over various and
sometimes varying routes into the
suburbs to take out licenses. This serv-
ice has been sporadic and irregular and
the rates of fare charged have shifted
widely. There is no fixed rate. many of
the drivers charging what they please
or think they can get. Some of the jit-
neys have signs indicating the destina-
tions and rates of fare. In licensing
these operators the District government
should require the labelling of all cars,
both as to destination and fares. This
should be done as speedily as possible.
If the strike is to continue long and
these litnevs are to be maintained in
regular service it is due to the public
to put them on definite basis as 4
recognized part of the city's transporta-
tion system. 1t is certainly not fair to
the railroad companies and not safe for
the public to allow a miscellaneous
transport service to be operated with
out regulation or restriction for any
length of time.

Count that day lost whose slow de
scending sun fails to reveal some new
suggestion about organizing the House
of Representatives.
The latest suggestion j that former
President Taft he elected Speaker. He
u honest, he is competent. he is faith
ful 10 the Constitution. Not q member
of the House, What OF II The Con
stitution. it is asserted. does not pre-
scribe il. so many words that the
Speaker must be member. Take him.
and end the controversy. His election
would be the best possible expression of
non -partisanshir. and set an example
worthy of imitation at this time in other
things
Beyond a personal compliment to Mr..
Taft. there is nothing to the suggestion.
The House is in no such extremity. The
tifty-ffty division between the two old
parties calls for nothing of new or
startling character in the settlement. So
far as the war question is concerned.
either Mr. Clark or Mr. Mann in the
chair would meet all the requirem ents
Of non -partisanship. And il may be
added without the slightest reflection on
Mr.. Taft that either i'll The chair would
be an Improvement on him. They are
experienced Legislators and parliamen
tarians. He has never served . day rs
a member of any legislative body.
Let us all turn at this time 10 Tam

thy of imitation-and be wise. A va
cancy exists in :: House district con
trolled by Tammany. and an out-and

Of the war. Tammany will vote the
government all the war supplies it needs.
hut recognizes the fact that parties will
continue to exist, and will survive the
war. and that as the organization will
continue to be democratic il should put
none but democrats on guard. Both re
publicans and democrats should copy

straight.

viii bear much more weight If every
governmental foundation in Europe
should be grubbed up and cast into the
discard, there would be no reason, no
excuse, for tampering with what was

ground. The case would not be SO seri-
GUS were it not for the fact that every
hour of this time has been precious.
The country has been on the verge of
conflict practically throughout the pc
riod of consideration. For the past two
months it has been so close to war that
every day has been dreaded as possibly
bringing the break. If the government
needs an armor plant of its own at all
it has certainly needed it urgently.
There is no consolation in the fact that
while the United States is waiting for
its own plant it can use the commercial
establishments. If it can use them for
its armor production in the period of
waiting it can do so indefinitely. A
practical disadvantage of the delay lies
in the fact that while the government
has been picking site the cost of ma
terials has risen until it is now neces-
sary for the department to ask for a
larger appropriation for construction.
Had the site been chosen with business
Like promptness the establishment of
the plant would in all likelihood have
been contracted for within the original
appropriation. Thus again Uncle Sam
pays dearly for tardiness of decision.

Show the Flag.

Now Is the time to show the flag Fly
it from the roof. hang it on the walls,
wear it on the coat. show it not as a
proof of loyalty. Tor that is assumed and
needs no specific declaration. but as an
inspiration to others. Show the flag as
& silent attestation of readiness to do
your bit, however small or humble. or
dangerous or important. in the work that
lies ahead
Washington should show the flag be
fore the war comes, if it is to come. and
every day throughout the conflict. Here
especially above all other cities this dis
play should be universal The flag
should be shown at every dwelling and
every place ef business. It should be
worn on every coat lapel No matter
how small il is, the flag should show.
Ostentatlon is not necessary or desir-
able. True patriotism NAV dwell within
a house before which hangs a flag foot
long as in a dwelling over which flies the
largest bunting.
Show the flag to encourage everybody
to face this crisis with confidence. We
know not what may come from the step
which apparently is soon to be taken.
Possibly it may lead swiftly to success.
1t may draw lis into n long, costly and
bloody struggle. We may be attacked in
an unpypecfpd ana rter We NAV avon hove
trouble within our own ranks through
treachery and disloyalty. We must not
meet this crisis lightly or with under
estimate of its gravity. The American
people should at the outset display their
utmost devotion TO the government. The
flag will simply stand as token Of
readiness for whatever may come and
whatever may be needed.

The Armor Plant Site.

Nearly seven months ago Congress au-
thorized the establishment of an armor
plant by the United States, and some
time thereafter a research was begun
by the Navy Department for the most
suitable site for such an institution. A
board Of inquiry heard arguments from
representatives Of many cities and vis-
tied the ground covered by these ap-
plieations and other places. Now it is
announced that decision is about to
be rendered. Just why it has taken so
long to find a place for the plant is not
understood. A business corporation hay
ing determined upon an extension Of its
establishment would surely not have
taken more than half year to find the
proper place and begin work ON it. In
deed, an enterprising, successful bust
ness would have picked tho site and
completed the construction within this
period that the United States has con-
sumed in merely looking over the

Sugar and Protection.

In the organization of the House Mr..
Martin of Louisiana viii deliver his own
vote And that is right. That is what
he was elected TO do. He does not say
20 which side-democratic or republican
he wiH deliver it, but objects to state
,nents that the independents have agreed
upon a course and viii decide the CON
troversy.
Mr.. Martins state is democratic, and
until recently he was democrat. But
The democratic "drive' on sugar-the
staple Of the third congressional dis
trict-offended him and his neighbors,
and they elected him to the House in
protest against the free sugar policy of
Mr.. Wilson.
The policy was enacted into law. and
vouid have been carried out but for
the miscalculation of the democrats re-
specting the amount of revenue the GOV
ernment would need. When they dis
covered that they could not dispense
with the sugar duty they removed sugar
from the free list, and it is on the duti-
able list today. So that as sugar was
not destroyed, and, owing to heavy de-
inands for revenue, is now in no danger,
some of Mr.. Martins constituents want
him to forgive and forget, and return to
the democratic ranks.
This argment, generally applied, is be-
ing used in other sections of the coun-
try where protection sentiment has been
growing and threatening trouble in
democratic districts. The disaffected
are being adjured in something like
these terms: Don't leave us on account
of protection. That policy is coming,
no matter which party wins. The gov
eminent needs so much money now, and
will continue to need it for so long a
time, tariff duties will have to be laid
to carry protection not only as an in
cident, but as an object. The demo

No conversion is confessed; only a

would be the policy il the sugar duty
could be dispensed with. The govern

in escaping destruction are simply lucky.
