A STEADY READER OF THE WORLD—1, K, ‘Women now have the privilege of voting on equal terms with men at will elections in four States—Wyoming, Colorado, Utah and Idaho, In _ Kansas they have a vote for school and municipal officers, In eighteen “other. States they have school suffrage. Montana and lowa permit i) women to vote upon the question of Issuing municipal bonds, and in "| Louisiana sthey may vote on all questions of public expenditures, The | theory of these extensions fs that as Property holders subject to taxation ‘women should be entitled to vote on. questions of public debt and expen- diture. In this State women who own assessed Property can vote “spon a proposition to raise money by tax or assessment,” As to the principte and policy involved in this uestion, heen inclined to believe in ‘the higher right of Sore not th ane asin their higher right not to fight in the army, to do police duty, to sit n juries, and to perform various other duties essential to the protection of government and the enforcement of laws, , Nevertheless women will probably vote in this country just as soon @s a clear majority of them desire to do so, and demand the privilege, ‘ We think so because in the end they do get pretty nearly everything | they want and ask for. But exnerience has shown that in a great majority of cases women do Not, as a class, crave this privilege and that when it is extended to them they exercise it in diminishing numbers as the novelty wears off., The Gas Trust threatens to fight in the courts if its lowered by the Legislature, The city is in a good MNS fi hig Let it demand of the Consolidated Company what legal right : has to pipe privileges in the streets, : ee ee COTTAGE LIFE FOR WAIFS, On the coming June 4, as planned, the waif: Yuvenile Asylum will be moved to their new home a ait oe Ferry, The change is to be more than from city to country, From the Institutional life the boys and girls will pass to cottage life. A. littl colony will be theirs, with fresh duties, as well as fresh privileges, ‘fe _. with an abundance of the priceless out-of-doors, ; In its new development the asylum follows a good modern ten- dency. The idea of confinement and restraint is to be banished as far as possible; the idea of home substituted. In place of uniformity of drill, thought and action—the breeder of dependence—there is to be individual responsibility, the encouragement of each little charge to think and do for himself. The individual method of treatment should mean something for future citizenship wherever it is tried Its inauguration for them should mark a fortunate day for the little yolk of the Juvenile Asylum, p { ‘The People’s Corner. dla said by the police.
