In state affairs the republican
party has been led into the by-paths
and shady hooks by some men who
have assumed leadership, where trad
ing and trafficking for personal ad-
vancsment and ACKNOWLEDGMENT have
reflected upon the party of Lincoln
and Grant, Mckinley and Roosevelt,
until it has been turned into vehi-
Gle for a few "fixers," causing the
great rank and file of its members
to lose interest in party affairs and
shrink from taking active part in re-
publican organization work. This
condition should not be permitted to
continue and will not be if some one
is elected as national committeeman
who believes in changing the republi-

constructive institution in which
every republican can take part. The

WATERPOWER AND WAR.

1--WE must prepare for long war
and we can increase and assure pro-
duction of war materials by using
water instead of COAL" declared Sec
retary Lane of the department of the
interior to a congressional committee
hearing testimony on the new govern
ment waterpower measure. "This is
why the bill is necessary"
A sad confession to make at this
late day, but it is not the fault of the
secretary. For five years, ever since
he took this office, he has been urg-
ing the passage of such a measure
and pleading with congress to do
something. Session after session bills
were reintroduced dealing with con-
servation-waterpower, coal, oil, etc.
And session after session nothing was
done.
That which may come from' this
session in release of public lands for
development is the result of the world

of matrimony, but II matrimony con-
tinues to be her ultimate goal, busi-
ness will always be a side issue, a
secondary consideration, and her sue
cess therein will be negligible.
And perhaps, contrary to the age
long contention of lordly man, this
business training will not unfit her
for that important vocation of matri-
mony. We confess our inability to
see wherein sound business training
can be considered Objectionable in a
wife and mother. And as intellect is
frequently the offspring of intellecr,
who can tell but the new departure
may be for the better development Of
the race after all?

S. p. WILL SERVE
NO WHEAT DURING WAR

No wheat or wheat products of any
kind will be served on Southern Pa
cific dining cars during the period OF
the war, it was announced recently
by Allan Pollok, superintendent of
dining cars, hotels and restaurants
for the company.
This action follows the plea of the
food administration for still further
saving in wheat. Under Pollok's di-
rection, the Southern Pacific chefs
are attending special cooking schools
to learn the utmost use that can be
made of other cereals.
The Southern Pacific operates more
dining cars than any other railroad
in the country. The exclusion of
wheat from the six million meals that
are served annually is expected to eff
feet a big saving.

THE BUSINESS WOMAN.

Until recently the business woman
was the exception. Now she is every
where. What with suffrage prevail
ing in many states and likely to be-
come universal, she is also taking a
position in public life never before
accorded her sex, so far as history
records.
The world war has been RESPONSE
Bile for the woman in business, and
doubtless has had its effect in bring
ing about suffrage.
There can be no doubt that, to
large extent, woman is in business to
stay. 1t is up to her to make good,
and she can do this If she so wills.
To succeed however, she must Of ne
cessity reconstruct her views of life.
Not only this, but her education must
be radically changed.
Heretofore the boy has been
educated for career. He has been
trained for the work that he has
chosen. His whole life has been built
upon and around this career. Not SO
with the girl, or, If so, the careers
have been widely different. In every
age of the world up to the present,
the ultimate object of woman's exist
ence has been marriage and matern-
ity. True there have always been
exceptions, but they merely sufficed
TO emphasize the rule.
Henceforth, however, II woman is
to take her place beside man in the
business world, this must be wholly
changed. She must be educated an6
trained for business first and matrl-
mony as an alternative. There will,
Of course, be many positions where
she can continue to gain livelihood
while awaiting the important event
