F The loving relatives of the philanthropic widow are try- ing to defeat the will on the ground that anyone who would try to make life easier for bankrupts and their children must necessarily have been insane. p The widow showed her good intentions, anyhow, who, Where She Fails Of course, woman's rights are a failure if woman doesn't avatl her it of her rights. This is particularly true of the rights which come ek through politics; for profane history, since she took Adam by the ears and made him eat that apple core, is replete with demonstra tions that she'll take her other rights good and proper: We instance a notable failure of politicallly empowered woman to seize upon her rights that has just been disclosed at the California city of Daly, whereat Miss Clara A.

Well, Miss Clara pronounced Ed and Loraine man and wife proper and plenty, and then came a most embarrassing pause. it was time for the official officiating to kisa the bridegroom We don’t know whether Ed's pucker was repulsive or whether Miss Loraine’s eyes looked daggers. Anyhow, Miss Recorder Clara deilb- rately abandoned a right whach has always been consctentiously Claimed by gentlemen officiates whenever the bride wasn't too much off color, or hadn't too heavy a moustache Verily, this instance of official woman's miserable failure to exer cise her right is not only discouraging to the suffrage cause, but it also must have its effect on that divine institution called marriage.

Almost single-handed at the start, he fought and won the greatest fight FOR THE PEOPLE in the history of national conventions. As the great commoner, his name will be remembered long after those of the “common run” of presidents have been forgotten. BALLOTING by the democratic national convention of 1912 will go down in history as the third longest in democratic party record. It was only surpassed in 1842 when 49 ballots Were required to nominate Franklin Pierce, and in 1860, when, after 57 ballots, a part of the delegates bolted, two conven- vad were held, and Douglas and Breckenridge were nomi- mated. ee | Editorial Comment on Wilson’s Nomination NEW YORK, July 3—Commenting on Wilson’s nom- ination, the New York Times today says: “The democratic party in the nomination of Wilson is re-born.

An English clergyman visiting this country tells of a bishop in England, whe, when a new church in his diocese was to be consecrated received many letters complaining that the architect had disfigured the interior with useless decoration The bishop decided to make an inspection of the new building and accordingly summoned the architect to meet him there. The bishop could find nothing wrong until, just as he reached the chancel, he chanced to eatch sight of four wooden images apparently guarding the pulpit. “What do those figures represent?” he asked, . “The four evangelists,” They appear to be asleep,” “Do you think so? “I certainly do.” Whereupon the architect called out to a man who was at work on one of the pews: th evangelists, REAL PROGRESS, “T tell you we live in an age of progress.” “How now?"
