Wilson and the Suffragists About 300 woman suffragists called on Presi

dent Wilson last Monday. They were headed by a brass band and carried the colors. Of these twentv-five were immediately received by the

President and five made short speeches. Dr. Mary Walker who, as usual, was attired in male costume, was obliged to remain outside. The President received them and told them the same thing that he had told other suffragists at a similar reception, but because he refused to promise to endorse the movement, a number of the ladies as they passed by him would not accept his proffered hand. One is somewhat at a loss to understand such an action as this. American suffragists have contemned the militancy of the English ladies; but what is the essential difference between the moral essence of this little Washington scene and the destructive activities of the London militants ? The President of the United States is not a man on whom one may vent personal spleen. Whatever he may be privately, he stands as the head and representative of the American people and is entitled to a courteous and respectful treatment. We are sure that if these ladies had only taken the trouble to understand the President's position they would have passed by him in a less resentful mood. He is determined (and is right in his determination) to make the Democratic Party responsible for this administration and his notion is that the right method of persuading the party to espouse the cause of woman suffrage is for the suffragists to go back to the source and origin of the party in the various communities and start a movement from the bottom up. If he forced the issue and thus should divorce himself from the party, it might prove disastrous to other programs. The friends of woman suffrage will all trust that this little breach of etiquette in nowise reflects the sentiment of the movement as a whole, and that the American leaders of this great crusade will be as tactful as they are earnest.

time, public offices are political plums which go to political favorites and to those with political pull. In a few brief years, this condition will have passed away. A large majority of these offices will have been taken out of politics. They will become life positions for the right man and young men who have had the training will be the first on the field and will capture the choice of position. Young man, why don't you send in an application and enter the ranks of the new vocation ?

A New Vocation The- appointment of specially trained men to responsible city offices is the very essence of that extraordinary movement of municipal reform which is so characteristic of our time. This means that a new vocation is being opened up to the young men of the country ; a vocation that is as honorable as that of any of the trained professions and far more remunerative. The task of a city office is interesting work. A public position has less of monotony and mere grind than a carresponding private position. It is responsible work. Men who have a wishbone where their back-bone ought to be are not eligible. The new vocation demands the highest qualifications of manhood. Honor is another prerequisite. A man who has not a manly character can never succeed in it and it will return to the faithful public official a great share of honor because his work well done brings to him the gratitude and respect of an entire community. It is difficult work. If it were not, it would never attract the young men of the country as it is beginning to do. The toughest fibred, manliest young fellow that goes into it will find his strength and resources taxed to the limit. But its pay is proportionate to its difficulty. One may expect to receive anywhere from $2,000 to $20,000 per year. Dayton's new City Manager draws a pay envelope of $12,500. The city of New York's chief of Engineering Department pulls down the biggest salary of any public official m the State. But how get the training? This was the question of questions until a couple of years ago when Mrs. Russell Sage and a few others who are very much interested in this work endowed a Municipal University in New York City. This institution is under the direction of the New York Bureau of Research of which W. H. Allen, Henry Bruere and Frederick A. Cleveland have charge. It already has turned out such men as Ralph Bowman, head of the Research Bureau of Milwaukee, C. O. Dustin, lately gone to Springfield, Mass., and L. D. Upson, director of the Bureau of Research at Dayton. All these men receive very large salaries. Those who attend the Municipal University at New York are put through a method of training quite different from that of the schools and academies. Instead of being taught theory out of books only, they are also given actual work in the field, are placed in offices under public officials, are given actual work to do in the school itself under the direction of the experts in charge, and are taught how to do by doing it. This university is not a play school but a working laboratory where real work is done. No tuition is charged. The only expense attached is one's board and keep for the two or three years while in at

Wanted: A Lincoln The actual experience of nations as they work out their problems on the field of time is a laboratory in which the sociologist studies the vexing political and economic questions with which he wrestles. But until a few years ago the student of sociological conditions was handicapped owing to the difficulties of studying conditions among other peoples. Communication with foreign lands was difficult or impossible, and to ascertain the gains and losses of their political and sociological experiments was out of the question. But now the times are changed and such communication has been established with all peoples everywhere that the whole world has been placed under the sociologist's microscope. The fact is pregnant with revolutionary changes in our political theories because it is enabling the student to see what results the much advertised political reforms have brought about where they have been tried. As the vision of struggling human society breaks on our view when we cast our eye broadly across the nations, what is it that we see? Is it peace and prosperity in the earth? No indeed. It is rather a scene of unrest and want and despair. England is on the volcano's edge: France is troubled with impending change: Italy smarts with such difficulties as her long history has never known : Germany, with all its boasted organization, cannot respond to the demand of thousands for work : and the United States, taking all things into consideration, now has more unemployed men than ever at one time before. As rapidly as wealth piles up at one end, poverty accumulates at the other and the misery of the steadily increasing depressed classes keeps pace with the pyramiding luxuries for the monopolist classes. One is led to say with Walter Rauschenbusch, the great social prophet, that though every age in a sense faces a crisis of its own, we today are facing not a crisis of our own generation

.but of the whole of civilization.

What is the cause of these conditions? "Oh," say this reformer and that, "it is because we have not yet put into use the right political measures." But what political measures will avail as a remedy for this state of affairs? It seems to matter little in a fundamental way what political measures are used. Some nations have the monarchial, others the oligarchial, some the

bureaucratic and some the democratic form of government: some have full suffrage and others restricted suffrage: some have the gold standard and some the silver standard : some have free trade and others protection: some have armies and others have no armies: some have great fortunes and others have no great fortunes: some have machine industry and others have hand labor: some have trusts and others have no trusts: some have labor unions and others have no labor unions: some have constitutions and others have no constitutions. Surely this is sufficient to convince us that the increasing poverty and depression which is rising to such an appalling height in the world is not due to the overlooking of some political ex

pediency but is rather due to some fundamental economic cause which strikes its roots beneath our political machinery. Nations are awaiting some man clear-sighted enough, strong-voiced enough and big enough to rise in our midst and to

expose that root of all the trouble and to say "Here is where thou ailest." We need a new Lin

coln.
