" - ..
To rag or not to rag. that is the
question.
The Sacramento cltv council . •.
ly passed nn ordinance prohibit nrr
ragging within the city limits. No mat
, ter what one might think about rag
ging he must think that the counc i
which passed such a law should be
teaching Sunday school. Such esthetic
perfection is seldom associated in the
vulgar mind with city councllmen. T.et
us imagine Nome's city fathers ris
ing in their righteous wrath against
this diabolical elaboration of the sa
cred two step and we shall have con
jured a picture of those whom the
gods would destroy hut first drive
mad.
Why does that infernal ragging give
rise to such morality spasms, any
how'.' What is right about It or what
Is wrong about it
If there were anything really wrong
about it the better people would never
cnntonnnee it, much less practice it;
and If it were good and proper it
would have died out long ago, for It
has nothing else in its favor but the
suggestion of "dlvllment" which .t
seems, to tell the truth, to have ob
tained under false pretenses.
Ragging cannot be said to posses*
the saintly grace of the minuet or the
grandmotherly purity of the cotillion.
Indeed its name seems to situ it as
perfectly as the word Tlowery seem*
to suit a certain portion of New York.
Hut, if that is all that can be suid
against it, there is hnrdlv any reason
why city councilmrn should butt in.
I.ike ordinary- human beings they
might lie amongst tile tirst to give \v »y
to the temptation and to cuss the
fate that had retarded the education
of their pedal extremities.
Anyhow such dances as ragging
seem to be matters which should lie
left to individual choice. They n®,
not be pastimes for the esthete but
they can hardly be called awful
crimes.
A newspaper published In the iute
rior of Alaska reprinted the story
from the Nugget that the Nome liar
Association had recommended a law
making slander a misdemeanor, and
the same newspaper commented on th'
story by stating that matters lo r
must be pretty warm.
That was an exceedingly silly re-]
mark that could only have been 111.ul'
l.v n mnn whfton montnl nnftnnlf i
limited by petty and local consider.!
tions, or whose dislike for Nome o. . .
eiiinc his inclination to talk sense.
Ii would probably he hard b> get a
man like that to believe that anv
local application which such a !'• >■
ommendatlon might have would eon
slst in showing that Nome people
more than any others desire to stop
such a practice as slander. For a
town of Its size there Is probably not
In the world a population more gen
•tour a people more Inclined to spea’,
well about their neighbors.
i if course one hears uncharitable re
marks. or hasty remarks, from time to
time. This is unavoidable where all
the people are so well known to each
other and you will hear the same, on’v
to a greater extent, in everv small
town on earth.
How often do we hear il said that
“this is an awrul town. You e.an't
turn sideways without having every
body talk about you." Go to any other
town of about euuai size and you will
hear the very same sentence spoken
almost every day of your life. Why.
that phrase is the very motto of small
towns. One town Is Just the same •i“
the other, except In a case like Nome's
whose people have all traveled enough
to become more broadminded than
those who live in older towns.
WOMEN’S PART IN THE WILSON

tuatex all political campaigning. It has
made its appeal on broader ground of
humanity than politicians—even very
liberal and progressive politicians are
accustomed to. The work has pro
ceeded on the assumption that the
coming of women Into politics means
the inauguration of a new kind of
politics—a politics that cares less for
abstract questions of policy and more
for the concrete things of human
health and happiness.
If women in politics are merely go
ing to debate the old Issues that men
have debated for generations, then the
adv.nt of the women means nothing
hut to increase the number of debat

expect most from the women’s move
