Democrats Make Suffrage Possible.

II begins to look as if Suffragsis would
owe the right TO vote at the coming ma
tional election to the good offices OF
President Wilson, after the efforts of the
entire Republican party had failed them
az the real critical moment. The Presi-
dent has shown chivalrous, forgiving
spirit for after the open abuse and public
picketing of the White House and the
consignment of his speeches to the flames
he might with propriety have held aloof
from the controversy and permitted the
women 10 look elsewhere for the aid they
keenly sought. He instead besought the
political leaders of his own party and
strongly urged the passage Of the An
thony Amendment through Congress,
after abandoning his position that the
question should be settled by States,
and, although he was largely instrumental
in finally obtaining favorable Senatorial
action on il, he still was berated by many
Of the leaders rs foe to equal rights.
He has submitted cOurteously to much
personal abuse and countless attacks from
the women but he has been, in season
and out the best and most sincere Trend
in high places the cause has had. lie
was the advocate of suffrage from sense
of right and justice and principle; indeed
not from political expediency, and, how
ever much he may be criticised IN the
future. il will be well to remember that
his personal opportunities were exercised
e. the full in a quarter where his political
and individual influence counted most
and prevailed.
He has induced a Democratic governor
ca call together Democratic Legislature
that is on record rs favoring suffrage to
ratifv the amendment. after all the Re
publican leaders had failed to whip into
line another needed vote for women. 1t
was then the last chance perhaps as every
other State had halted ST the final action
and refused To listen 10 the voice OF the
Republican chiefs. President Wilson's
course throughout has shown him to be
the real friend Of Suffrage, the best, sin
cere and most potential advocate that the
cause has had.
The claim that the Republican party is
sponsor for the Suffrage Amendment IS
unfounded for il is almost wholly due TO
the cooperation Of Democratic leaders-to
President Wilson in particular-that the
women Of the nation may all have the OPP
portunity Of balloting for the national
tickets IN November.
II will not be forgotten Democratic
President, Democratic Governor and
Democratic Legislature--if Tennessee takes
affirmative action on the amendment, as
il is expected she will-made suffrage
possible for women under the federal
constitution. through Woodrow Wilson's
ir>erccssions in behalf of the women of
America, and that he is the head of the
party, that it is contended has everything
10 lose by granting the franchise to women
and perhaps nothing to gain in the way
of partisan advantage.

Just Folks
By Edgar A. Guest
THE FOOLISH HUMAN RACE.

Last night | stood in tawdry place
And watched the ways of the human race.
/ looked at dozen shrieklng girls
Piled on a table that whirls and whirls,
And saw them thrown In a tangled heap
Sprawllng and squlrmlng and several deep.
And unto the wife who was standing by,
These are angels to be, said /.
| followed the ways OF the merry throng
And heard the laughter and mirth and song
Into a barrel which turned and swayed
Men and women journey made,
And tumbling together they seemed to be
Like so many porpoises out at sea-
Men and women who'ye worked all day,
Eagerly seeking a chance to play.
What do you make of it alp" she said.
"Oh, the dead are a long time dead,
And care is bitter and duty stern,
And each must weep when it comes his
turn,
And all grow weary and long for play,
But here is laughter to end the day
FOOLISH Yes. it Is that, said /,
But better the laugh than the dreay
sigh
look at us here, for we'd like them, too,
Many the foolish things we do.
We grow silly and seek smile
In thousand ways that are not worth
while,
Yet after the mirth and the jest are
through.
We shall all be judged by the deeds We do,
And God shall forget On the Judgment
Day
The fools we were in our hours of play I"

LABOR'S WRONG ATTITUDE.

British labor has repeatedly raised of
late a very grave question which DEM
ocracy. if it is to survive, must settle.
1t has repeatedly attempted to nullify
maturely considered government policy
by the simple method of refusing TO carry
it out. That is, of course, nothing more
nor less than minority rule-the absolute
negation of democracy
Organized labor is the only element
in the community which possesses this
power. II lawyers or clergymen or clerks
disagree profoundly with any government
policy, they have precisely the same rights
and the same powers as the rest of us TO
try by argument and agitation to pile up
a majority against 1t, and so get it reversed.
But if they fall IN this, they must stand
aside and see it put in force. Even if
they all went out on strike they could
not prevent the will of the majority, as
expressed in Congress or Parliament from
being carried out.-Philadelphia Ledger.

THE MARRIED TEACHER.

1t should have been needless, but il
was probably wise, for the Carnegie
Foundation, by the report of distinguish
ed committee of educators, to denounce
In strong terms the remaining prejudice
against the employment of married women
as teachers.
Says the committee There is prob
ably no work to which marriage and a
normal home life could contribute quail
hcation more essential than they could
to teaching" The woman teacher is
too often "a detached public servant in a
class apart. II married and householder
having children, she becomes a vitality
interested and respected factor in society"
The position of the married teacher has
been indicated by the law, by public
opinion, by results. 1t is sustained by
the careful inquiry of the Carnegie Founda-
tion. 1t ought never to be questioned
again in any enlightened community

TROPIC SUMMER.
By Marjory Stoneman Douglas.

Northward the spring still paints the hills,
Lingering yet with timid ways;
Summer in Florida now sets
Ablaze its dawns and Furnished days.
White hot the curtain of the sky,
Crimson the poinciana lifts,
And all our tropic ecstasy
Marks where the summer heaps its
giIts.
Purple the splendid spread of sea
Creams on the sands its sunny tides.
Fountains of green, the palm trees swing;
Fuil in the wind the white gull rides.
Sunsets that burn in unguessed fire,
Dusks blue and swift as heron's wing.
Then from the darkening east the stars,
Then from the sea the nights that sing.
Oh velvet glory Of the dark
Oh, living bosom of that seal
Regal your night whose splendor sets
On summer her full majesty.

Frank A. Munsey's Sun THAT used to
shine for Dana) is qualified as chief of
staff on George W. Harveys poison
brigade, and if there are any Republicans
who have found the Huns Hymn of Hate
too placid, we can commend them to Mr..
Munsey's daily, or hourly, attacks on the
President of the United States. One
might think from the headlines of the
publication that there is a conspiracy
afoot in San Francisco TO utterly destroy
and demolsh the United States, or that
the Democratic delegates there were plan
ming to open the Golden Gate to plague and
pestilence and every i'll that could befall
this country. Let us hope that the Mu n
sey staff may have gotten the 'hot stuff"
out of its system while the convention
is in session.

PRESS COMMENTS.
INExCUsABLE CARLEssNEss.

Disabled soldiers, the vocational board
announces, cannot receive the immediate
increase granted in the deficiency bill
because the measure fails to provide the
necessary machinery. The bill was care
lessly drawn, and disabled soldiers may
suffer because Of Congressional inatten-
ton to or inoapacity for merely routine
work. The budget bill failed because it
was constitutionaly defective, and now
we have another illustration of slipshod
Congressional methods. II congressman
cannot express the legislative intention
clearly, and cannot employ language that
will carry out their purpose, they should
get some one to go over their bills for them
and save them from such humiliating
exhibitions Of inc fficieney.-

Simmer Course in Religious Training.

The opening of the summer course in
religious training for children in twelve
Presbyterian and Methodist churches this
week indicates hopeful activity and self
reliance on the part of these churches and
particularly of the school teachers who
are doing most of the work The sig
nifcant feature of the course this year is
that it is entirely under home direction.
Previously representative from the
Presbyterian Board of Education in Phil
adelphia had always organized and guided
the schools.
At first glance a school course may
seem out of place In these five weeks, when
the children have Just been released from
the city's schools, but the teachers in
charge report that they are continually
receiving appeals for the religious educa-
tion of children, not only from church
members but from men with very loose
church affiliations and employers. AS for
the childrens attitude, the teachers de-
clare that, once started, they are delighted
10 continue the course.
There is just one lack at present. Will
nington has dispensed with outside direc-
tion, but has as yet put nothing in its
place. The churches which conduct
classes are cooperating but have no CEN
tral office. Some kind of united organiza-
ton, not necessarily elaborate, would be
beneficial IN many ways. 1t would SIM
plify the administrative problems of
the courses. II would enabIeshe classes of
each church to benefit by the ideas and
experience of all the others.
