The suffrage question, '-haying bpc-n threshed through the polls And re k oned as good , By-.the voters "of th" state, is all but a' thing of the past.

The suffrage conditions in 'the four other states which have recognized the woman's right to vote have follow ed this very principle. : The bringing about woman's suffrage by women alone strikes 'the sympathies . of . the .world and the "forces that are re corder against the movement really become Its supporters, This la Jhe finest part of the whole thing, The victory of woman over what she deems an oppressing power. ; , But precedent shows that after the women get the ballot privilege they collectively lapBe(back to their for mer spheres of femmiljy, and the vote of the state is not much changed. This is plain when the liquor' question is considered in the four states which ha-ve adopted woman suffrage. It is a well-known fact that the women are against liquor, the saloon, the distil lery and the brewers, yet they '.have not 'Been fit to fuse with the prohi bitionists and drive this pbPe of com-, merce from Colorado, IdahoUtah or Wyoming. ' -.. .. . ',' Women, after they gain all the priv ileges of full citizenship, do not care to run for office. If they did many would be surely elected, for they are admit ted adepts in campaigning. The (principles that were set at work In the heart of women are old erf and more deeply rooted than the firm laws of nations. They are not to be! forgotten in the glamour of this new toy and at the last women really goes back, after wlnnin gsffu890$. .9 goes back, after winning suffrage, to her home, and there she will stay. , : CXEYEIl INTERNATIONAL v',":: ; ERAGE. :. ' BROK. The high finance of Europe in ask ing with mingled derision and exas peration how the New , York ; bankers can lend $50,000,000 to' China when they have to hawk American railroad bonds, through the bourses of Europe and have just had to pay 6 per cent in Interest, discount and commission for one year to raise s few million dol lars on Michigan Central notes, re marks the Minneapolis Tribune. The answer that the bonds of a na tion like China are a better Invest ment than new securities of railroads already burled under debt is not suffi cient, because we nave bad to take all kinds of municipal securities to the foreign markets also. As a matter o? fact, some Investors,. large as well as small, like to send their money away from home from motives in which romance plays some part There is probably no ground for the Euro-1 pe&n suspicion of 'a political motive back of these loans. , . The United States, alone in the whole world, wants no political advan tage in China. Whatever help the government readers to banking in terest in their various foreign loans is given in the same spirit that ex pands foreign commerce through the consular service and encourages agri culture with scientific departments. The bankers who made these loans expect to control important contracts for construction . and transportation ELL 'kh the rnCacy is i:r.ri.
