WEDNESDAY. JANUARY 29, 1913
A WOMAN SENATOR.
The opening of the Colorado
Legislature was marked hy the
appearance in the Senate of the
first woman to hold Senatorial
office in this country. She was
welcomed cordially hy her col
leagues, who yielded to her a ;
first choice of seats, a courtesy!
to which she responded by mak- j
tng no objection to smoking in the j
Senate, which appears to he a j
much-valued privilege. Thus
the preliminaries went oil har
moniously, with honors for all
concerned.
But the occasion was not
without its special and siguili
cient. features. The first con
gratulations to the new senator
were extended hy a woman who
holds a seat in the assembly. She
is a Republican, while the sen
ator is a Democrat, hut the in
terchange of greetings was com
pleted with a kiss. Out of defer
ence to the Senate rule that for
.bids hats while permitting ci
gars, the lady removed her own.
She was gowned, we are. told, in
dull primrose, and the gown was
pronounced “fetching" hy those
that understood it.
The dullest senator in uoiorauu
’can hardly fail to perceive soon
elr or later that if a lady lay aside
her hat for his convenience in the
Senate, he might without sacri
fice of manly right or senatorial
-dignity lay aside his cigar fat
hers. And senatorial greet ings,
too, may gain in grace and gen
tleness. Thus hy degrees legis
lative manners may improve and
grow toward perfection in Colo
rado, so that in the end Juneau
may take lessons from Dcnvei,
and even Washington sit up and
lake notice of the provinces.
VOTES FOR KINGS.
There is hope for an oppressed
and downtrodedn class in the an
nouncement that King \ictoi
Emmanuel of Italy lias been plac
ed upon the voting list of his elec
tion district <»f the Quirinal ward
in Rome. Me is said to he tlie on
ly king in Europe admitted to the
franchise. Now that Italy lias a
new election law which practically
amounts to universal manhood
suffrage, and the relaxation of the
“lion-expedit ’ is bringing the
“black” party to the polls, there
is really no reason why the
“whites” should not enroll Ibis
humble recruit.
We shall expect this relorm to
he imitated in other countries.
After all, kings as a class are as
well fitted for the suffrage as
many others. They are usually
educated, though unevenly. They
travel a good deal and have an
eye-acquaintance with public con
ditions, though they do not hear
as much frank political discus
sion as drummers. Some of them,
though not all, come of respect
able families with private means,
so that they cannot be disfran
chised as public charges. But the
unanswerable argument for en
franchising/them is that which
passed the Fifteenth amendment
to the United Stales Constitution.
Nominally free, they are practi
cally without political power and
need the vote for their protec
tion.
There may be opposition in
some quarters to the enfranchise
ment of monarchs, but it would
yield before accepted methods of
publicity. A walking pilgrimage
from capital to capital, with Wil- ]
liam of Prussia as ‘‘General,”
stalwart Haakon of Norway to
carry the big “Votes for Kings”
banner and Victor Emmanuel to
explain in the village square at
each stop “how he won in Italy”
would go far to convince Europe.
It would probably never be nec
essary to throw stones at parii,a
liients, set fire to theaters or pour
ink into the letter boxes.
EDITORIAL ROTES.
The Cordova Alaskan still has
life enough to emit a faint squeak.
The crabs and clams in Orca
Inlet are beginning to encroach
upon the Cordova townsile.
A youth of good family, inher
iting a considerable fortune and
dying, after a spectacular social
career, “leaving debts only,” may
be said to have realized the high
est possibilities of one kind of
New York life.
The large towns in Ireland are
to have proportional representa
tion in the home rule bill, under
an amendment just accepted. Ore
gon and Oklahoma are not the
only testing grounds for new
election machinery.
Professor Wilson, of Har
vard, Jhinks our dispute with
Kngland over I lie Panama lolls
question “insignificant.” We are
more concerned to learn wlial
former Professor Wilson, of
Princeton, thinks of the mailer.
Members of (lie English Parlia
ment, have called on troops to
save them from the (errors of the
suffragelles, who threaten I lie
law makers with fifty-seven va
rieties of punishment for having
dropped I lie woman’s suffrage hill
from (lie calender.
Joseph Ellor, the loud-mouthed
leader of I he Industrial Workers,
is taking a star pari in I he New
York waiters strike. 1IIis last
slunl was to advise the waiters
to place poison in the food "for
(he capitalists |o cat," and yel la
bor will permit such a man among
them.
The investigation conducted by
the money trust committee of
congress has at least revealed the
existence of a near money trust,
but above all the testimony it is
making reading of such a delight
ful character that the committee
should keep up the good work.
Congress owes something to
American literature.

It i a fact that Valdez beer is a food and not a tonic.
Ask any doctor you know. Valdez beer aids digestion. Use
it a few times with your meals and you’ll find we’re right.
[I you drink beer you should use Valdez beer in preference to
olliers. First, because of its unquestionable higfr quality.
Second, because it is a home product; brewed in your home
town and all who are interested in the growth and prosper
ity of Valdez should patroniz home products.
