parted, The town crier entered with
a proclamation from the prince which

WALSENBURG. Colo. Nov. q. -
The Colorado Fuel and Iron company

States Mine Workers looked forward
today for definite information concern
ing the real extent of the strike of
coal miners in the southern Colorado
fields as the result of a 80 per cent
wage reduction inaugurated in 10 COM
panies mines last Wednesday.
Both sides were claiming a margin
in the number of miners reporting for
work and test" today was regarded
with great interest throughout the
state.
Figures given out by the company in
the last few days showed a steady in
crease in the number of men report
ing for work. while John McLennan,

his statement that fewer men are

Statements by Governor Sharp and
Adjutant General Hancock, to the ef-
feet that martial law would remain

that martial law today is mo more
necessary than it was the day the
governor issued his original procla-
nation"
The miners in this district" said
Hefferly, have demonstrated beyond
question of doubt that they never had
any intention of creating a disturb
ance. All the striking miners ask in
the present CONTROVERSY with c. F. and

Prohibition and Automobiles

We do not think any of readers question The Repubcan's position with respect to prohibition or the sincerity of its desire prohibition forced. The abolition of the saloon the longest forward step the country has taken since the aboh- ton slavery It less important that alcoholic liquors should placed beyond the reach of all. The mere wping of the saloons has not accom- pshed that, in time feel that it will be done. It may take years; maybe a generation.
 We favor the employment of whatever means by which prohibition may be enforced, which may tribute to the enforcement. But seriously ques tion whether the plan adopted by the state corpora CTS the protection which securities companies give them against loss by confiscation of against which the dealers have claims and which may be saken in the hands of bootleggers.
 Very few cars Have been taken. Cars usu- ally sold on time persons whom the dealers have reason to believe are respectable and responsible citi zns. Most dealers have therefore had experience with bootleggers and the securities companies have suffered only inconsequential losses.
 But the securities companies have derived con- siderable revenue from insuring the dealers against su losses from possible confscation though in not

WOMEN IN POLITICS
BY DR. FRANK CRANE Copyright, 1921, by Frank Crane)

Another woman has been elected to the House of Commons and will now be the playmate of Lady Astor.
 She is Mrs. Thomas Wintringham, widow and a Member for Louth
 She has been elected as Liberal and succeeds her husband, who died in the House of Commons Library
 Other women have In recent years taken thelr place in National Councils We have had women in the National Legislature of the United States. A woman delegate has sat in the meeting of the League of Ma tions at Geneva.
 These two women are now Members of the House of Commons in England Other women have been chosen for elective and appontve positions in other States.
 They are but drops before the coming shower
 There is little doubt that and more women will take their place in public lfe for the that that is where they naturally belong. And that is the position for which their peculiar temperament and qualities fit them.
 Government is woman's business-not mans It is in the nature of housekeeping The mans busi is to produce, to york; and to adventure. The natural sphere of woman is to conserve what he gains.
 And that is all government ought to be-merely taking care of the results which man has attained.
 Some people look upon the entrance of women into politics as threatening the home and they are sad
 Others look upon the same thing and are gleefu, because they do not believe in the home.
 Both of these wrong.
 Woman will never lose her place in the home. That where she naturally belongs, and so long as there are homes women will rule them, and so long there are children women will bring them up.
 But the point is that woman is an individual She
  ing business just as man is engaged with the outside world which is the producing business.
 And there is why the home-maker and cnseator should not have her place Tn the affairs or State as we'll as the outside adventurer.
 Indeed a mind trained to the care of children ana the affairs of home is better qualified to run affairs of State than mind that has been trained Tn lawyers office or dry goods store.
 Little by little we are coming to see the folly or the idea of government leadership 1t is not the busl- ness of government to lead Leadership is the prov ince of the individual life and voluntary organizations The sole business of is to preserve the peace and maintain the mutual rights of individuals and voluntary organizations.
 In other words, government ought to govern and not to rule Government should follow and not leao Government is preservative and not constructive.
 In proportion as we get hold of this idea we shall see that government is peculiarly woman's place
 Let us hope that the time is not far off when all mayors governors presidents councillors, and legis ators or at least the majority of them, are feminine
 This will release lot of husky men who had better be out making living and doing something con- StructiVe.

The Telegraphers and the Strike

Speaking further of the vote of the railway tel egraphers to join the country wide railway strike now that we think of it, that about the most useless action of which conceive. If the trains not be stopped by the withdrawal of engineers firemen, conductors, brakemen and switch men from the service they could not be stopped by the deseron by the telegraphers of their keys And
 the trains could be stopped there would be nothing for the telegraphers do.
 In ways the action of the telegraphers re- minds us of the comprehensively sighted farmer who cut big hole and little in the door of his barn so that both the little dog and the big dog could have ingress and egress.
 We can see how revolt of the telegraphers might further complicate and embarrass a disorganized railway service, but strike that cannot accomplish more than Reorganization and partial paralysis of service is already doomed failure "tieup' Is not complete it is not tieup at all

the dealers either be prepared to handle all the paper they take sold on time, or sell for cash Very few purchasers of cars are prepared to pay cash No agency could survive if its business were put cash basis. And it is stated that there are less than half dozen agencies in Arizona that could handle their own paper on credit basis
 We will grant that and then a car sold by an automobile agency will be used by the purchaser in the violation prohibition law, though perhaps a majority of such cars either stolen on which an agency has claim But should the automobile agencies of Arizona be destroyed on the mere chance of throwing obstacle in the way of a bootlegger?
