THE TWENTIETH
AMENDMENT


/ agreed on the form Of new
constitutional amendment which is
to read as follows:
No political, civil or legal
disabilities or equalities on ac-
count of sex or on account OF
marriage, unless applying to
both sexes, shall exist within
the United States or any place
subject to their jurisdiction.
The proposed new amendment is
to be known as the civil equality
amendment. It has encountered
some opposition in labor union
circles because it is feared that it
may render unconstitutional certain
minimum wage laws, laws provid-
ing for minimum hours, stools for
resting clerks, and other regulations
put into the state statutes for the
benefit of the women. They may
rest in peace. The amendment will
never be passed-at least in the
shape it is proposed. Most OF the
things the women workers are agi-
tated about, are regulations based
on police powers Of the states and
so may not be affected by the
constitution. But not even the
ladies of the National Woman's
party, who framed the above pro-
posed amendment to the federal
constitution would vote for it when
once they learned what it would
accomplish, and a congress OF men
are entirely too gallant to think, for
a minute, of submitting to the legis-
latures of the state such an amend
ment for ratification. Nor would
the male members of any state leg
islature think for a moment of rati-
flying such a wide and sweeping
amendment. 1t is evidently case
of the ladies following the example
of Huck Firms cat with the bottle
of painkiller, and asking for some.
thing they don't want at all, and
woGd be very much mortified over
if they got it.
We have an idea that the women
of the National Woman's party who
framed this amendment did so with
more regard to how its words
sounded than to what its words
meant. We think that they were
giving less attention to what they
might lose through its adoption
than to what they might gain by its
adoption. Indeed, they would gain
very little and lose a great deal by
absolute civil and political equality
of the sexes before the law.
For instance, in this state, the
law gives the wife a dowry right
in her husbands property the mo-
ment she marries him. Do the
women want to insist that the hus-
band should acquire ydowry right
in the wife's property at the same
time? The civil law gives the wife
the right to purchase clothing, food,
lodging, or any other needed thing
suitable to her married station in
life and have it charged to her hus-
bands account, and he becomes
legally liable to pay these debts
Do the ladies of the Woman's party
want to insist that any married man
must have the right to charge to his
wife's account his cigar bills. or
hotel bills, or barber bills, aud make
the wife's property liable for the

Butte, Dec. 1s.-That things are

by the statement of Miss Anna Nc

day that more jobs have been found

in any like period. More requests have
been made for work and more jobs

New York, July 25.-The recovery
in stock market prices which began
early last week continued today in
the same quiet and orderly manner
as on preceding days. There was
nothing that could be described as
of a buoyant character, but there was
a steady tone in evidence at all times
even though, there was some profit
taking to be absorbed. The market
has undoubtedly passed the point
where all the rise can be attributed
to purchasing for the retirement of
short contracts. There has been
some buying for long account al
though of no wide proportions. This,
however, does not necessarily mean
that there is public interest accumu-
lating. Such, of course, could be the
case but it is unlikely. On the sur
face, at any rate, there is little to
indicate other than professional op-
erations.
In some respects today's display was
noteworthy. For one thing the indus
trials such as the tobaccos and the rub
Der stocks, were in greater demand indi-
Gazing, perhaps, tndt tne STOCK market IL
beginning to take account of the better
ment which is being predicted in certain
avenues of trade. There Is no doubt that
sentiment had improved to a decided de-
gree recently. but whether 1t is Of a last
ing sort remains to be seen. At all
events the suspension Of a large stock
exchange house today did not cause any
permanent check on the rise Of prices.
The rail issues were firm. apparently
having discounted the favorab BILE news with
relation to the refunding plan.
The bond market proportionately was
more active today than the stock market.
There was an increase in the turnover of
corporation issues, which fell just short
of the 100000 mark. 1t was for
ward price trend that prevailed through
out the day.
In the foreign exchange market there
was another display Of weakness ster-
ling dropped to s3.56ts and closed at
$356%, a loss of 1c for the day. Ex-
change moved against Paris. Amsterdam,
Berlin and Madrid. but lira recovered
moderately.
