PAYING osyRv TO mss vsrrs.

Politicians OF all parties are biddlnS
for the women votera Within a worry
short time the voting population OF
this state will be doubled by full vot
Ing powers granted to women. So the
woman vote is being courtcd strongly
by political SWANS singing beneath the
windows OF feminine franchise pro-
testations of undyIng affection.
1t will be we'll II politicians do not
promise too much In tho wooing and
II the dear object does not ask too
much. Citizenship and its acquisition
IS a serious matter and should be APP
preached with strong sense and un-
derstand!ns Of its responsibility. 1t Is
not a matter of direct advantage to sex
or to be played rs a chip in the game"
There Is and has been nc doubt in the
mind Of this Newspaper that woman
suffrage is Just and that the voting
citizenship OF women will ultimately
advantage all citizenship. But the
women who are 20 vote must, II this
advantage r. 20 be gained approach
their new privilege, not as a parallel
In u slcre Of advantage. but as a duty
and high responsibility.
The average woman will vote rs In
tell!sent!v as the average man. The
average man would vote more intell!-
gently e nc held hts vote as a higher
personal privilege than ne seems to at
present and to have done in the past.
The tendency among us lie to vote
against somebody or something more
than to vote for Issues and men. In
short most Of US cas-. negative rather
than Affirmative vote. Most OF Us fail
to look forward and beneath the sur
fact. Most Of us vote specifically.
Let us hope that the woman vote will
seek to display the higher citizenship
that judges and decides rather than
traffics.

THE STUDENTS CONVENTION.
(Des Moines Capital

The student volunteer convention
held It's closing meeting a. the Coliseum
Sunday night. The program was end
ed at Q o'clock and a majority reported
at the railway stations to take their
trains for the east or west the greater
number Of them going east. The capt.
tai has given comprehensive proceed
ings OF this convention. The last night
was like the breaking up Of friends and
friendships, but there was no hurrah-
ing. The only applause was when the
vice president OF the organization made
a statement In regard to the work per-
formed by numerous organizations In
the city In taking care Of the visitors.
The chairman praised the hotels, the
private homes the minis Sers. the news
papers, and, best OF 1t ell, the praise
he bestowed was ratified by the great
audience composed of delegates.
John r. Mott presided. He has a
way OF mingling business methods with
a fun recognition of religion. In other
words, he is 4 community worker. or
Y. NJ c. A. man Of the highest type;
in fact one of the great men OF the
present generation.
This convention was not revival.
They did rot sing revival hymns, con-
tenting themselves with the standard
music Of the standard hymnals.
Des Moines never before entertained
such a convention and may not have
the privilege again. But certain II Is.
il was a convention worth while for the
city and the state.
Sometimes it happens that conven-
TORS are held and on he way to the
meeting every man on the train Is
wearing badge expressing the name
of favorite for the head Of the organ
'zation for the next year or proclaiming
himself in favor of certain city as q
rCx- meeting place. Then everything
revolves around the new convention
city and the new president. But
there was nothing Of this kind con-
nected with this convention. Few OF
those present expected ever to attend
ara.n. Students will be scattered four
years from now all over the world
They had no interest in the next con-
vent,on so far az It's location or its Of
fcers are concerned.
No long platform telling the world
how It should be run was adopted. The
speeches were full Of suggestions. but
there was not a revolutionist In the
crowd.
The young men travelled IN large
groups thru the streets. They were
full of enthusiasm at their dining plac-
es. but sober as judges at the con-
vention and did not miss word. Hum
dreds Of them were busy taking notes.
II was a great gathering OF the
youth from more than forty different
countries,

war that he wanted Us to keep out.
What state of mind he has been In is

supported the war after We had be-
come involved In It. That he has been
able to approve Of the influence OF
Wall street men with Mr.. Wilson does
not seem possible. Barney Baruch has
become one of the chief men IN the

think we'll Of such influences We can
