No sensible specimen of the male persuasion can possibly discredit the right of woman to cast & ballot. Thers is 1o sane argument that can be used in the negative and we've heard tho gamut from soup to nuts. Practically the only opposition comes from the “other half” and from those ‘practically devold of the finer sensibilities of manhood. From the “boss” o the gang, the overlord of vice and all its sordid environment, the ruls of the lquor element and all of similar 11k, 1s heard opposition to the claim. by woman of her right to have an equal say with her brethren. Lest someone might become of the impression’ we are of the varlety of masculine individuality who wear a wrist watch, & lavalliere and silk 80cks we might let in a little light by & mere statement that among other experiences, for four years we trod a “criminal beat” in mewspaper work in one of the largest cities in the United States and no one can take our ‘watch away from uf and sell it to us again. But that was before we set- tled down—atter settling up. And our conclusions are decidedly brief: We belleve the wives, mothers and sisters of the decent and intelll- gent cltizenship of the city of Bemidsi are JUST AS INTELLIGENT, and JUST AS CAPABLE of exerclsing judgment for WHAT IS RIGHT and GOOD for the city of Bemidfi—thelr home and the home of their-children —as any LORD OF A VICE RING, ANY “CADET" OF THE SCARLET LET- TERED DENIZEN, ANY SALOON BUM or ANY ONE ELSE OF EQUAL ‘INTELLIGENT' CALIBRE, who lay clalm to guidance of the destinies ©of & community and all that thereln is. Yes, that Is our FIRM and UNWAVERING beltef. And we KNOW whereof we speak. CONCERNING THE SUBJECT OF HOLES. Theoretically the hole is a Void, a Vacancy, Nothing. Practically it 18 one of the most troublesome things 1n We dodge holes from the cradle to the the Crematory. B Take the merest infant. One of the first things it does is discover the hole n ta face and try to climb n it. Lite, particularly with socks, is just one darned hol And fn our tin roofs, rowboats, streets, stewpans, stomacl ‘counts we find them. Holes, holes, holes. Coal holes, rat holes, post holes, mail holes and mud holes; these are but a few of the many. Yet let us not condemn the hole indiscriminately. Else how would ‘we get our foot 1n our shoes? OF strain our cranberries? What would our golf links be without them? And where would we go from cyclones? e hole subject Is deep. The Wprld is, ss you might say, full of them; and we mortals must deal with each hole as we ‘come to It. e, or, trom the Pacifier to 'PUMPING STATION SHOULD BE IMPROVED. At the meeting of the city council Monday evening a report Was brought In making recommendations as to what, in the committee's be- liet, should be dgne at the pumping station of the city's water supply. In that recommendation were mentioned many things. It has been asserted that the plant has long been not what it should and In fact It was openly stated that it was in a deplorable condition and really a menace to the community. No city can have too good a waterworks system. That is one of the chief factora of a city’s belng. Good waterworks and good firefighting ‘apparatus fs necessary. Such tends to reduce the insurance rates and is assurance that the lives and property of the city Is protected. A person does not take out accident Insurance with the expectation of breaking his leg. He takes it out in case his leg is broken. So with a city. It does not provide proper water systems and adequate frefighting upparatus with the expectation there will be a serlous conflagration. 1t does 50-in event there happens to be"one. That's it in a nutshell, Whenever you discover the Individual who has got it into his noodle that he is the chief actor in the' Declaration of Independence, and that he is the boy that polished up the stars and made ‘em shine, you €an make a bet that his think tank Is leaking and he doesn't know It. Tom Lawson says state secret eddied around tn Wall street, and congressional heavyweights say Tom is & liar and an ass. An investiga- tion can 4o no harm, provided we investigate the investigators. And again, we know there are also some “politicians,” who 1t they got their House rent for rendering any valuable public service to the people Would have to sleep out doors. 0 years old before he learned to bulld an ark. There are who are not as 0ld as Noah was—they can yet learn some- thing, too. Did you ever hear a girl, even if she wasa't bullt that way, knock & short skirt? Neither 41d we. And then again, there s the “politician” whose talks listens like a pretzel. ‘The opportunity that once passes you by never shows up again. ‘We are informed that stockings are higher, but of course— Just as easy to write 1917, fen't it?
