Riner has asked to be retired. He has reached the age of 71 years and has earned a rest. Few federal judges have had a longer term of service aud none a more hon- orable career. “ His record as @ jurist is about as perfect as it is given to mortal to be perfect. His decisions have been so eminently fair and within the wisest interpretation of the law that reversal from a higher court never came to him in the matters of importance before him. ‘He has been a model citizen throughout his long life and the high esteem im which he has always been held by the bar and public is a source of pride to his state. Hon. T. Blake Kennedy of Cheyenne will bé Judge Riner’s successor. He is fitted by both temperament and.accomplishment to make s worthy successor, The federal district will be well served and the people of Wyoming can be congratulated upon a continuance. of ‘the high character of its federal court. —————_o—___—— COME TO LIFE. Well! What is this news emanating from the state capital concerning the activity of Governor Carey on the Phipps bill? Has he just realized what everybody in the state has been trying to impress upon him for months past? ery highway enthusiast in Wyoming «has been writing and wiring members of congress’ upon the im- portance and fairness of the measure and urging its adoption ever since the provisions of the bill were first made public. ; It is good news that the governor has at last caught the idea, for it is the only sign of life he has exhibited with reference to Wyoming highways since he urged the state bond issue last May and then failed to re- deem the promises he made the people in connection pa SPE BEL A A FRUITLESS VENTURE, It is more than passing strange to what lengths some nes will go these days, to regulate the world and it all over to conform to their private views of what things ought to be. The overseer of Zion, mean- ing Zion, Ulinois, a year ago sent a delegation of sis- ters down to New York to see, first hand, just how dar- ing Fifth avenue and other parade grounds on Man- hattan were with reference to the display of feminine necks and legs., The sisterhood was duly shocked and returned to Zion without performing any missionary work of any particular note. While they were absent from home an eruption broke out in the very. midst of Zion, and the police court of that center of well-regulated morals, was soon overflowing with maids and matrons for having gone contrary to the edicts of the overseer concerning low nécks and brief skirts. Punishment was meted out and extreme fashions disappeared from the holy city. Now that things at home are safe, the overseer, him- self is on the way to New York with a program of pur- ity, modesty and simplicity that ‘will at least startle New York, if it does nothing worse. There are to be no more lobster suppers after the theater. Powder puffs and cold cream are to be ban- ished. Textiles are to be used more liberally at both the top and bottom. There are other things to be fix- ed also, but these are the main issues contained in the Zion propaganda that is to turn New York women from frivolity to the saving sense of decency as expounded at Zion, Ilinois. The world will anxiously await the result of the over- seer’s mission. Mee) es By) THE OUTLOOK FOR FATHER. “Father's place at the head of the family is chal- Ienged in the recently announced program of the Na- tional Woman's party,” observes the Detroit Free Press, “as it has been challenged in fact and custom for lo, this long time. The Woman's party, which is the left wing of the feminist movement, would give to woman by law the right to choose her namie upon mar- riage, to choose her domicile and to have unrestricted acquisition and control of property. “The Woman’s party members seem to number among their lacks a sense of humor. Father will be flattered at their assumption that he is the head of the modern household. He can tell them, if they ask, that the ancient conception of the family as a unit, with him as its head, is out. Women nowadays adopt what- ever name they choose, that is, the more advanced ones doand the others reserve the right; they have the pre- ponderant voice in the selection of the family’s place of zesidence, and the husband who attempts to manipu- late-his wife’s property without her consent is in for it.The patriarchal order passeth and none knoweth it better than father. “father’s suzerainty was threatened when mother took up club work, sister went off to college and broth- er got a job before he was out of his teens. When he ceased to be the sole bread-winner and the single re- perry, of light end knowledge in the family he lost is baronial rank. The laws still recognize him dimly 2s the front and center of the unit, but they are con- stantly modified by the courts. Father’s role, while respectable, hardly reaches the dignity of the clan chieftain which it heid in less enlightened days than these. “The nits to which the alt foned view of the fam estir onjecture. of man’s selec’ gagement ring tion and the 1; it still devolves on the male, ir all but the most advanced circles, to provide early .| emphasis is on the extensive sale of whisky at from shelter and sustenance for the female and the brood. And it is extremely unlikely that those conventions will be set aside. We must remember that it is the women who are'moving for the changihg order, not the men. “But the prospect for ‘father is not all dark. The} women bear their new privileges tactfully, for the most part, They do not seek to depress father unnecessar- ily. And for the great majority of them the matter of obtaining by law what they have achieved otherwise is of no concern. It is only to the intellectual odds and and ends, the pioneers and stragglers, the advanced and decadent of the sex that the privilege of choos- ing names and selecting residences is important, The rest go along without chafing at inconsequentials, or- dering father’s life and the family’ ee RNa SELES NO CAUSE FOR DISCOURAGEMENT. The enforcement of the Eighteenth amendment is still one of the leading topics of the day throughout the country. The general opinion is that the. friends of the amendment have no real cause for discourage- ment. A writer in the New York Tribune in speak- ing of the situation in the larger cities says: “Considering all the circumstances, the situation relative to:the enforcement of the prohibition law, particularly in large cities, is no cause-for discour- agement and might have been foreseen. thing approaching yéars after the e expected. The drinking habits of thousands of the population create a market for bootleg whisky, the local politicians as a class were not in favor of the law, much money could be made through bribes to permit violation of the law, and most of the large cities contain a foreign element hostile to our form of government and eager to promote the violation of its 1 “Nevertheless, throughout the history of our couh- try the federsl government has shown itself capable of enforcing the Constitution and the laws notwith- standing more than one sporadic rebellion. It will be the same with the Eighteenth amendment in the long run. . “Reports on the situation in various cities that the $7 to $15 a quart, except for amateur stuff with its added poisonous qualities, and neither do'men invest any consid- erable sum in the imported brands at such prices. When the bootleg whisky has burned out its votaries the demand will greatly decrease and new purchasers will not be created. ‘Much nonsense has been written respecting the amendment and the Volstead law. It is that these were ‘put over’ by an aggre: The whole history of the growth of prohib' ment contradicts such a suggestion. The failure of|° the Democratic state convention to adopt the Tam: many plank in favor of beer and light wines would seem of itself a sufficient straw to indicate the way the wind is blowing. Both the amendment and the law express the sober judgment of a latge majority of the people of the United States. “No argument has been too absurd to be advanced to nullify if possible the effect of the amendment by making convenient loopholes in the law for its en- forcement. It has been urged that 2% per cent beer should be permitted. The fact is that % per cent beer smells, looks and tastes like beer, but, as has been wittily said, ‘It doesn’t seem to have the auth- ority.” The 2% per cent product has the authority and there is no other reason why any one should be interested in advocating it. “The Bible has been appealed to, mainly by those who have no other use for it,-for arguments in favor of alcoholic drinks. It ought to be sufficient to say that but for that book and: its teachings and the en- ergy of those who follow its precepts’ there would be no such amendment-apd no-such aw to combat. use, “A sudden and suspicious/eruiption of patriotism and desire to preserve our liberties and the enforcement of the Fourth amendment to the Federal Constitution is now observable. Those who call upon the universe to behold how the Fourth amendment is violated con- véniently omit to lay, stress:upon. the word ‘unreason- able,’ which qualifies the words search and seizure. The majority of citizens will willingly permit that search of their automobiles, for example, which shall show them good citizens, obedient to law, and consid- er the inconvenience as their contribution.to good gov- ernment, law and jorder. s “It should be noted that all of the Ten Command- ments are still béing violated after some thousand years of enforcement, and probably these recent ex- pressions of the good sense cz humanity as found in the amendment and the law against alcoholic drinks will be likewise violated. Nevertheless such violations will be less in number as the years pass and will in time be no more unmanageable than other crimes against the public welfare by the dregs of society.” —-——9 j IT REQUIRES MANHOOD. } . “You can judge the temper of a man by the fash- ion in which he faces the inevitable,” said one of the great preachers. The real man is not discouraged. He rises superior to every defeat. There is no gloom or doleful sounds from him. The fighting instinct remains strong in him. He does not know when he is whipped and would not acknowledge it if he did. If things go bady, he simply puts more earnestness into his efforts, he plugs the harder. His philosophy admits of no whimperirig and he acknowledges no fear. If he seems to fail, he is winning—the only victory that counts. ‘ ergue accompanied a onedollar bill, which she ‘said her last money. i ‘The advertisement reads: ~~ ~~ “FOR SALE—Young, woman hay- ing failed to secure employment | after six months ¢ffort—as book. | keeper, cl ofters herself for sals to the highest bidder, The ~youns woman -asked~that:| People’s Forum Editor Tribune—Several weeks ago cement street crossings were along.

GO AND GET IT. The chief of the bureau of foreign and domestic commerce seeks to reassure the country on the out-. look for foreign trade. He declares that the pessim- ism that prevails is due in large measure to alarm- ist reports that have been sent out; that much of the export boom that followed the war was due to war = conditions and should not be expected to continue; and | == that the fundamentals of our foreign trade situation |= are as sound as ever. He asserts that the German competition abeut which we hear so much should not}! be taken too seriously, as he has found that German products are usually very inferior to our own. 8 SSE Se NOT WHOLLY WICKED. “If a man goes to sleep on the streets of Detroit,” says the Free Press, “and he is a well-dressed, pros- perous looking person, one would say that his chances|= of being robbed constitute a risk that would not be taken by the most reckless insurance company that ever was organized.
