May Be Wiser Than They Look.

The Indiana appellate court judges certainly have lots of courage no matter what else may be said of them. Notwithstanding all this agitation going on about the “recall" of judges they had the nerve Wednesday to declare that diamonds were a necessary part of a woman s raiment, in a case from Kokomo where a man’s wife had run her husband’s face for $250 for diamonds and hubby refused to pay the mere pittance because, as he alleged, the diamonds were “not necessary.” The appellate court rules otherwise, and the husband must settle. Evidently the learned judges think woman’s suffrage will be enacted before we get the “recall,” and they are paving the way for a political stand-in with the ladies.
