Moat likely It U a surprise to the
major! tjr of tbe people that the ma
jority In California for the wrcair was
'greater Uaa that for the "Initiative
and refereaJum. For both amend
ments tbe majority we overwhelming
bat that for the recall exceed that for
the Inttialive and referendum 'by sev
eral thousand. That' verdict probably
meana that the people of California
are dissatisfied with some court de
cisions ta their own elite and else
where, a conviction that the Judiciary,
aa well aa other officials. Is not Inv
macala'e and that the beat correct
Ire for judicial and other shortcoro
ag Ilea in tne power of the people
to bring the offender to count Evi
dently also, the contention that the
power to recall will lessen reference
for the eoarta and make Jndge the
mere Inatrnmenta of demagocuee did
not weigh with tbe CalUomlan.
There is no discounting the fact
that woman suffrage baa made n great
gain la the victory achieved in Cali
fornia. Naturally one looks to tbe
western states for experiments In leg
islation, economy's and social rela
tions becaese they axe Jess Influenced
by those old established customs that
affect the Eastern states. But the peo
ple of he west are Just as -quick ta
throwing over experiments If they do
not prove satisfactory as they are In
making them. Therefore an equal suf
frage baa prevailed In five of the west
ern and mountain states for some
time. The result in California can only
mean that the majority In that state
la satisfied that woman suffrage has
proved successful where tried. It goes
without saying that the cauxe of wom
an' suffrage, has received a decided
Impetus.
A good deal of what ta the average
boy la called badness la nothing but
a natural exuberancy of spirits. Wheth
er that exurberancy will ultimately be
come actual badness or make for the
benefit of the boy in future year de
pends mslnly upon the way the boy
Is handled. If be Is rigidly kept down
he will become either a milksop or a
tough, but If wisely guided he will In
all probabllty develop into a man of
spirit and action with success written
large before him.
If the boy In the farm home more
often had a financial share In tbe
farm instead of being treated like
hired help there would b a greater
desire to stick to the farm. But when
a boy Is not consulted or taken Into
bis father's confidence It Is no wonder
that he has but little Interestt In the
