Let's see, how old was Eve when she died? 1 | A BOUQUET FOR SEATTLE WOME (From the Los Angeles Record.) Woman suffrage is one of the impending issues througho: world, and already a practical question In several states where cor jtutional amendments bave been submitted. Under these ciream-| Btances we cannot get too much light on the query } What will she do with it when she gets it? | Seattle happens to furnish the best answer, because her women have been recently enfranchised, and have gone to the polls twice fn a month on political issues that had a pronounced moral side. In the first place, Seattle proves that women will vote when mat.| ters vital to the home and their children are at stake. Ninety-five per cent of them registered, and the proportion of women voting was larger than that of men. Having recalled Mayor Gil! from office and completely reversed his policy of a wide-open town at an earlier election, the women we to the primary on February 22 and defeated 15 out of 18 candidates for councti who stood for the Gill idea, The three who escaped had but a slender margin, and the women say they will “get” them at th election of March 7. The kind of men nominated by the vote of the women is also sig Bificant. They are men of various trades and professions, but almost without exception men who have demonstrated their capacity to suc. ceed in life, and who bave made a stady of civic government We have been told that women wouldn't vote; that only bad women Would vote; that they would vote for good looking men, without regard to their fitness; that they would cease to care for their homes and children. Well, you see the pudding served by the women voters of Se mttle! How do you like it? JOE BAILEY hissed by the United Otates senate gajlery—an inci dent almost unprecedented. Gradually that old body of plutocrats will acquire a little light om the country’s estimate of it. THE PEOPLE LIKE 'EM Started cautiously in 45 obscure little towns, the postal savings bank is a big success, nevertheless. Even Postmaster-Genera!l Hitch-| cock says so. “If I had the money I would open 500 new ones tomor Tow.” he declares, Of course it’s a success. And why? Because the people trust their government as they trust no man and no corparation. If the government should start a life insurance department, millions who never did or would tnsure in a private com-| pany would hasten to take out government policies. | it is not the people who are afraid of the government; It's | Big Business that's afraid of government competition. ‘That's who's afraid!

Uncle Sam is poorer by 795,000 acres of good timber, but per haps he'll learn by experience. Hope the timber won't all be gone when he wakes up. } OBSERVATIONS | | GROVER CLEVELAND will be honored with a $100,000 tower at Princeton, New Jersey. ea, oe ONLY nine candidates for mayor in Chicago, which isn't many out of a possible 2,000,000.
