actual certainty in this country, those
who are mfriendly, have more un-
fair criticism to .pffer. It has been Of
ten of late the complaint that women
you'd besiege the voters with plea
for offce--would swarm down on the
innocent men and take away all theil
offices, because a woman can conduct
campaigns always as women do
things.
There is nothing in this clap.trap
argument but an effort to cheaper the
exercise of the ballot by women. we
ere no. looking for utopiaH hlbriness
ar1 bliss in their voting. Those Who
will vote when the time comes will
have the average good sense that real
live. sure enough women have toud.,.
They will continue to behave like SOU
thern women in our part Of the couu-
,try-but they will vote and vote IN.
telligently They will make the bal
lot in tlreGE~tSands count for good.
Mark this prediction.

Those WHO fight the woinan's vote
Immediately rose with the suggestion
that this might become 2 common oc-
euTrence when the ballot is given to
the women. There is poor reasoning
in all that 1t likewise is meant to
cast aspersions on the ballot for the
woman.
We know very little OF the merits
Of the Florida case, but sometimes
men kill women for unfaithfrness to
them. 1t is not a new thing on their
side of the scales of justice For the
good of both men and women and
many, many homes all over the land
where unhappiness starts from the
mans inconsiderate obstinacy in a
fathlcss career, it might be well for
the woman to impress the man with
the idea that she can wreck vengencc.
1t is an awful form of lawlessness to
which no person ought to be forced,
but the fact that woman is given
the right to vote doesn't control here
yet
People who make ugly, unfair insin,
ations are going to be the surprised
folks when the women have part in
elections. Whatever comes of it, they
ought to play fairly with those who
undertake to express themselves in
the naming of public servants at the
ballot box.

FROM the the Ohio State Journal:

government contended the expenses

check. Eminent counsel was secured
and for eigth weeks in the trial the
defendants had all the advantages
skillful lawyers could provide De-
spite that fact the jury, without de-
lay, said guilty in the case of seven
teen leaders, and Judge Sessions,
quite as promptly, gave the maximum
penalty, two years in prison and fines
of $4,000 each.
IT was a sconpicuons triumph of
good government and clean conduct
in politics. Two points stand out
prominently in the trial, the high pur-
pose and courageous attitude Of the
court, and the fact that all the ora
tory and specious pleas did not befog
the jury in what was manifestly a
plain duty. The expenditure of such
sums not only violates the law but
amounts to a purchase of the senate.

The Albany Herald very sensiblr
suggests that the republicans ought to
run Senator Lodge for the presidency,
He is responsible more than any other
one man for saving the country from
the peace treaty, and he ought to
stand head and shoulders above any
other republican leader. If that ia
nous 6liieftain could be entrusted
with leadership, it would not be hard
to make Il clear cut issue of the peace
treaty and the league of nations.
