New Jersey Leans to Suffrage.

New Jersey, despite apprehension on
the part of the friends Of woman suf
frage, shows a marked disposition to
ratify the federal amendment. The
senate yesterday, after a brief debate,
voted Is to 2 in favor of the consti-
tutional change. In the house a mo-
tion to substitute a referendum reso-
luton for one of ratification was
beaten, 81 to 25, and the house post
poned consideration until Monday.
This would forecast an afii iirmative vote
by the state, and if that is given the
score will stand twenty-eight in the
affirmative to five in the negative,
South Carolina having voted adversely
last week. The amendment then will
have eight votes to secure as against
eight required by the negative to de-
feat ratification. The finish of the
equal suffrage fight is becoming close
and exciting.

Near East Relief.

The phrase "Near East Relief" has
sounded repeatedly during recent
months upon ears in America some
what dulled, through iteration of ur
gent needs on the part of peoples of
Europe and Asia. To a few, acquaint
ed with the real conditions in Armenia
and other parts of southeastern Eu-
rope and southwestern Asia, these
words have stood for more than a
need. They have represented duty
on the part of the people of this coun-
try, who have charged themselves with
the care of the suffering ones who can
find nowhere else the succor they re-
quire to maintain existence.
Last night at Liberty Hut in this
city the needs of Armenia and other
parts of the near east were eloquently
and wildly set forth by speakers who
knew from first hand observation and
even from bitter experience the an
guish of the millions of people for
whose aid the call now goes forth. This
is not matter of how much money
is forthcoming. 1t is rather a ques-
tion of how speedily the assistance is
rendered. The hope is that the ap
peals so eloquently made will quicken
the impulse to give that during the
war was so often manifested by the
people of the United States.
OF practically everything required
for maintenance the Armenians, nam
ing them for the moment alone as the
most conspieuously in need Of aid, are
today utterly bereft. Their country
has been fought over, their stocks and
tools of trade and herds have been
looted, great numbers have been slain,
children have been orphaned, villages
have been destroyed. And yet these
people bravely face the future, asking
only for little help to tide them
over until another harvest.
For centuries the Armenians have
been oppressed by their rulers Of an
alien race and bitterly antagonistic
religion. During the past century their
sorrows repeatedly appealed to Eu-
rope. but for political reasons little or
nothing was done to alleviate them.
Armenia was a pawn in the interna-
tional game. Now it is to be hoped q
new order has come about and Arme-
mia will be regarded with human SYM
pathy and with view to its fehabili-
tation. The people have wholesome
political aspirations, but the suceor
now urgently required is entirely un-
related to the organic future of the
nation. 1t has to do with its physical
life, and unless the ravages of war are
to be supplemented by an almost
equal devastation in time of >.eace the
helping hand must be extended, lib
orally filled with means to put these
brave, patient, long g-suffering people in
position to support themselves.

Nebraska and San Francisco.

1t is expected that during his visit
home Senator Hitchcock will discuss
with his friends Mr.. Bryan's ambition
to go as a delegate to the San Fran
cisco convention. Some of the sena-
tors friends are opposed to the propo-
sition. Their opposition antedates the
jackson day dinner in this town. But
since then it has increased in strength,
and is now emphatic.
a popular piece of newspaper writ
ing four years ago was a description
of Mr.. Bryan at the st. Louis conven-
tion. He was represented as wearing
an aggrieved look. His arrival in town
had gone quite unnoticed. Nobody
had met him at the train. Nobody
seemed to take any notice of him at
his hotel. He wandered about, hands
elasped behind him, as if in painful
M meditation.

Renewing the Treaty Debate.

How much more debate may there
be in the Senate on the league of ma
tionsl Now that both parties there
have proposed renewal of the de-
bate, the question is on many lips.
One might suppose the subject quite
exhausted. Months have been devoted
to it. Supporters and opponents have
spoken at length. Every senator is on
record. either against reservations or
for reservations, and even as to the
sort of reservations. if any, which
should be made.
And yet it is probable that when
resumed the debate will be animated.
The subject still appeals to the public,
and to the Senate.
Some recent expressions from abroad
deal of attention. France, it has been
stated, is willing to accept such as
have been proposed in the Senate, and
Italy has offered no objection.
But the leading expression is that
of Lord Grey, which has just been
published. 1t carries the weight of his
name, and as well that of an investi-
cation of the subject made by him
both in England and America. In
deed, opinion is freely expressed that
Lord Grey came to America expressly
to study popular sentiment and the
Senate situation as respects the league.
At any rate, in his letter to the Lon
don Times, which answers as a sort
both, and in very frank terms. He
sees no objection to reservations, and
practically advises the British govern
ment to accept what appears to be
Americas program.
There is still much discussion of the
league in its relation to the coming
campaign, and these questions are
asked: How prominent will the league
as an issue be in the campaign if the
peace treaty is not disposed of at this
session of Congress? and if the treaty
is disposed of, will the league figure
in the campaign at alll
The answer to the first question
seems easy. In such an event the
league would be very prominent in the
campaign, and might become the para
mount issue. The answer to the see
ond question is not so easy, but
guess is that, whatever befalls, the
league will be discussed on the stump
and in the press from the time the
two presidential tickets are put into
the field. The bitter-enders will in
troduce if, and will handle it in such
a way as to make replies necessary.
But the immediate matter is the sit
nation in the Senate. The treaty is
on the table of that body undisposed
of, and public sentiment expects ac-
ton; and the sooner action is taken
the more time there will be for other
business, which in volume is consider
able, and in character important.

On glancin' through the paper, where

see a lot of candidates put out upon

While gentleman named Bryan has

In Congress they're debatin' as to how
to make some rules;
There's argument in several towns
about the public schools;
There are young folks getting married,
and we wish 'em joy, of course,
And older people, not SO wise, applyin'
for divorce.
There are statesmen still declarin' that
the country must be saved,
And criticism others for the way they
have behaved;
We're catching signals up on high
from folks we never met,
Machinery that ran so fast, is going
faster yet.
The markets make one person smile
and make another frOwn,
The price of food is quicker going up
than coming down;
The clock counts of the minutes with
the same old steady click,
And life seems about as usual down to
