NO, 20,174 THE REAL SUFFRAGE TRIUMPH. HE National Woman’s Party is trying to convince itself that there is a partisan victory for it concealed somewhere in the results of the election, “When we entered the campaign the middle of August,” declares Miss Alice Paul, National Chairman of the Congressional Union, “we found the voting women lined up for Mr. Wilson because he ‘kept us out of war.’ We opposed that cry with the counter plea that he ‘kept Us out of suffrage,’ and found that wherever we were able to reach ‘the women voters they responded to this appeal.” When Miss Paul says “reach” doesn’t she mean “persuade”? If women voters can be easily “reached” anywhere it surely ought to be in the Western States, where full suffrage is an old story. Yet Wyoming, which has had woman suffrage since 1869, went for Wilson, as it did in 1912. Colorado, where euffrage is twenty-three years old, did the same. And Utah, Idaho, Washington, Arizona, Kansas, Nevada, Montana and California are all in the Wilson column. In Diinois, which with two exceptions has gone Republican in every Presidential election since 1868, the women, with their newly acquired ‘votes, exerted little or no influence on the result. On the whole it seems impossible not to agree with the New York State Association Opposed to Woman Suffrage at least in the conclu- ion that future candidates for political office “need not be terrorized ‘by the threat that the woman’s vote can be delivered against them unless they indorse woman euffrage.” In this election the women voters of the country have shown them- eelves capable of clear thinking and independent voting on nation issues quite without regard to the special political affinities or ani- mosities of the suffrage movement itself. Which, if the leaders of the Woman’s Party would only realize ft, is one of the strongest arguments for their cause and by all odds the biggest victory they can claim for what woman voters did last Tuesday. —\-+-——____ EVEN SMOKES!

The cigar manufacturers have joitted the procession. Scarce Asbor, high wages, increased cost of materials—60 per cent. more for bands, 85 per cent. ‘more for labels and 35 per cent. more for the wood meed in making boxee—are reasons offered for the hardest blow yet. *, Boosts in the prices of meat, vegetables and bread, not to speak of clothing and ahoe leather for the youngsters, have long kept mother Gguring how to make the five-dollar bills go even half as far as they ‘need to. But eo far it has been mainly mother’s worry. When father’s favorite “necessities of life’ begin to jump beyond Ble reach something is going to happen. If mother takes care it doesn’t happen to her allowance for household expenses we may ex- ect to cee masculine regiments in the campaign against the rampant @ent of living. ‘Ten per cent. more for cigars! It IS time something was done. — ' A GREAT AMERICAN ASTRONOMER. ESPITE much solid achievement which the scientific world has recognized and honored,, Dr. Percival Lowell, the American astronomer who has just died in Arizona, will be longest re- apembered in the popular mind as the man who discovered that the qplanct Mars is inhabited. ‘ After his telescope had convinced him that the curious, regular] ‘markings observable on Mars were, as Schiaparelli had thought them, Banals, Dr. Lowell became satisfied atep hy step that he could prove Yhem undoubtedly the product of organic life and probably the artifi- gial work of intelligent beings. Throughout all the hubbub of controversy and scientific ridicule What followed his announcement Dr. Lowell never varied from his Belief, though he succeeded in convincing few of his distinguished | " epponénta, There are two kinds of imagination—the poetic kind, which ro-! ces or ruakes pictures out of nothing, and the scientific kind, which | PERATIONS by which tmportant ; #80 the O and even vital parts of the) fi constructs vast probabilities out of patiently studied facts. Dr. Lowell was highly endowed with the latter kind of imagination, for Meveloping and stimulating which there is no science like astronomy. He profoundly stirred in turn the imagination of the whole world with his carefully worked-out arguments for the existence of sentient beings on Mars. No novelist with all his flights of fancy ever did as much as did sober science in this case. And after all nobody has fur- wished final proof that Lowell was wrong. Letters From the People .
