SEX DIVISION OF
CONGRESS

claims the distinction of being the
first woman ever nominated for the
United States senate. We do no,
know whether that would be con-
coded by our W Jeanette RAN
kin or not . Miss Rankin was de.
feated for the republican nomina.
ton, but through the device of
writing in her name as the candi-
date of a new party, since extinct,
the national party" she got a party
nomination just the same. Both
ladies were defeated at the ballo.
box. Our recollection is that they
were voted for at the same election.
However that may be, Miss Mar
tin, who is president of the Nevada
Suffrage league, has just come back
from Europe and tells the women
of this country that they will never
eliminate the sex question from
politics until congress is divided
fifty-fifty between the men and the
women. To a mere man, that
would seem like injecting the Sex
question into politics, instead of
taking it out Of politics. But Miss
Martin argues the question this
way:
There are thirty-seven women
in the reichstag in Germany. and
whenever a question relating to
women comes up the men leave it
to them to discuss and decide. In
England, numerous women's organ
izations have combined to support
feminine candidates. They have
many equality laws, but the men
who interpret them discriminate
against women. The women realize
they've got to put women in those
offices if they hope to put sex out
of politics.
THE Women's Freedom league
has adopted for its slogan, Three
Hundred Women for Parliament
which means a $3.50 representation.
Then there is the Women's General
Committee, heads of organizations
brought together by Lady Astor
and representing approximately
100000 women in trades and pro-
fessions, church and reform move
ments, who are indorsing candi-
dates.
THAT is what we should do here.
The League of Women Voters and
the national woman's party, which
during the suffrage campaign rep
resented the conservative and the
militant wings of the movement,
should cooperate. They should let
the two big parties select qualified
women for political offices, and
then the women voters should go to
these candidates and ask them if
they stand for women first. If
they do, let the women voters
pledge their support during the
campaign. Both these big organ
izations have branches in every
state. They could work for a half
share of representation not only in
congress but in state legislatures"
Miss Martin thinks that men dis
eliminate too much against women
in politics and legislation, but she
must admit that the men gave them
the ballot by exclusively, or nearly
exclusively. male votes. and that
all the special privileges they now
enjoy, such as sole property rights,
dowry rights and other things men
do have a legal right to, came about
by male votes.

How China Got Opium
While Americans usually associate
opium with China, that is not the place
where the drug originated nor the place
whence comes the greater part of the
| crescent supply in this country. The
Caesars of Rome knew opium as n
medicine. The white poppy, from whose
seeds it comes. was first grown in
| Asia Minor. and that district today is
the principal source Of the opium used
in the United States. During the Dark
Ages, the use of the drug spread across
Asia, reaching China about the year
1000.
All during those centuries, however.
opium was eaten, and the effect of
the morphia was conveyed to the nerve
centers Of the addict through the di-
gestive organs. As long as 1t was
taken in this form, the drug never
became a menace to civilization, for
its victims were few. Even in China
it was used principally as a medicine.
Then came the discovery by the
Chinese that the drug was much more
effective when inhaled as smoke. That
came after the discovery of America
and. incidentally, Of tobacco. Tobacco
smoking spread from America to Eu-
rope, and from there the English,
Spanish and Dutch sailors took the
habit and the weed itself to China. BY
the year 100 the Chinese had become
tobacco smokers.
The Chinese thereupon began mixing
opium with their tobacco. and the
| opium habit spread rapidly. being firm
ly established in China by 1900. In

WHAT EVERY WOMAN KNOWS
AT COLISEUM SUNDAY

When William DeMille, one OF
Paramount's master producers. un-
dertook to screen Sir James NJ.
Barries celebrated play, What Ev-
cry Woman Knows, which will be
shown at the Coliseum Sunday and
Monday, the question of cast
to adequately portray the charac-
tiers was one Of primary import
ance That Maude Adams and Bruce
McRae, who played leading roles
in the American production OF the
play, should be succeeded in the
screen version in the most capable
manner was imperative, and to that
end Lois Wilson and Conrad Na.gel
were chosen.
"What Every Woman Knows was
produced at the Duke of York s
theatre in London in 1908, and in
the following season it was present
ed in New York by Charles Froh-
man with Maude Adams and Bruce
McRae in the leading parts. The
play scored huge success.
The story deals with the for
tunes of a young student with poll
teal aspirations who steals into a
home of wealth at night to read
certain books he is unable to OBJ
tain otherwise. He is caught and
the result is an agreement that in
consideration OF the payment to him
If $500. he will marry the daugh-
ter of the household within five
wears This provokes unusual and
captivitating developments, all con-
tributing to make this screen story
one of the most entertaining pro-
iuced this season. The support
ing cast is OF high character of
excellence.

PROTECT LIFE AND PRESERVE PROPERTY
TO THE PUBLIC.

The Times Recorder is forced
by circumstances over which it
has no control to appear ia a
pages today. This is made neces-
essary by the lack of roll print
paper of a variety of sizes as is
usually carried. Paper has been
bought from at least four con-
Germs, some of it as much as six
6 weeks ago, but recent rush or
ders at the mills from the larger
newspapers because of the
threatened railroad strike and
the feared suspension of freight
traffic have caused the needs of
the smaller newspapers to be
neglected.
The Times-Recorder has
enough paper to continue to pub
lish for at least two weeks in
some size, but it must be regid-
ly conserved to last that long.
MONDAY usually being Hght ad-
ertising day, conservation is be-
ing practiced today. All but a
very limited amount of advertis-
ing has been eliminated from to-
days edition SO that the inter
ests of the reader would not be
sacrificed. All features that
would have appeared in a larger
edition will be found in this pa
per, including comic cartoons,
continued story and the usual
complement OF news. These small
editions will appear as infre-
quently as is possible until new
supply of paper has been re-
ceived.
