The tango, it seems, has attained
4he dignity of a sociological prob
lem. Mayor Harrison of Chicago ha:
appointed a committee of the City
Council to frame a tango ordinance,
which will decide what is good in
the modern dance and what is of thei
devil, so to speak. A Cleveland judge
recently constituted himself a judge
of terpsichorean morality, and, after
witnessing several exhibitions of the
famous dance, decidedwthat it was
within the pale of decency. *
Now we hear that a New Jersey
elergyman has faced the problem
bravely. It seems that the members
of his wongregation abandoned golf
and tennis and passed their leisure
bears in the tango's exercise. A con
test between the spiritual and the
emtpoial seemed inevitable but the
dergymian. was a resourceful man

A tango invasion has swept every
taing before it. A few years ago we
were dancing the dignified waltz and
4uadrille of our fathers and moth
era. Now our fathers and mothers

And all because it has the ap
proval of society. If the tango is
vulgr and shocking to modesty and
good form, it should be suppressed.
The dignified waltz and quadrille of
our fathers and mothers ,should be
peed enough for their sensible self

Woman Suffrage in Louisiana.
New Orleans Times-Democrat: A
State suffrage convention will meet
in New Orleans next week to take up
the question of votes for women. It
will appejl to the Legislature for
suffrage, either through an amend
ment or preferably hirough a con
stitutional convention. It will be
remembered that the proposition
was advanced by Miss Kate Gordon
that the convention soon to meet in
Baton Rouge take up the woman
suffrage question. The Legislature
showed no disposition to order this
-in fact, could not do so under the
Governor's call, and it is very,
doubtful whether the convention
can or will take up the matter. It
may be suggested that a convention
will be called later to make certain
changes in our laws, and the suffra
gists will probably ask that in such
an event woman suffrage be pre
seated at that time. We deem the
calling of a convention unlikely. The
proealtion will probably have to
wait for an amendment and a popu
lar vote. It will probably not he
very difficult to secure such a vote.
The arguments in favor of letting
he- voters pass oin any proposition
are strong. Louisiana has adopted
the most extreme Democratic doc
trine--that:the people have a right
to be consulted on all questions and
to vote on them, and while the ref
erendum is not in operation in
Louisiana under the law, it is in
force in principle. The Legislature
has shown a disposition to submit to
the people any question of import
ance that is strongly supported. In
other words, the Louisiana doctrine
is that if the people want woman
suffrage t~PcrY -ino-reasoi-why it
should not be granted.

At great expense of money and
labor we have put in a hard year's
work on our system of forecasting. I
Because of our great anxiety to im
prove our system of long range fore- I
casting we took no vacation during i
the-summer and are now able to as- I
sure the friends of our weather I
work that for 1914 our forecasts, i
particularly of rainfal, will be bet
ter than ever before.
We are now well satisfied with
our system of forecasting except r
that sometimes the small up' and f
down movements of the tempera- N
tures may be defective. We have the c
rainfall problem, in a general way, C
solvd. The forecasts of rainfall will r
not be perfect, but good enough for r
practical purposes. We will gener
ally succeed in forecasting cold a
waves and frosts. We have the dates I
of the great storms and can now, to
some extent, point out their loca
tions. Our forecasts of crop weather
and probable crop conditions will
surely be mlbre valuable than ev."r
before.
Friends of our forecasts can as- i
sist us by getting their neighbors '
enough interested to subscribe for t
newspapers and magazines ',that }
publish our work.
Something Worth Rememuberin C
Collier's Nov. 8: Before the Sulzer
ease passes completely intg4mistor'
there is one aspect of it 'which
honuld be emphasized, both because
it is not.obvious and' because it 'has
a bearing upon many other affairs.
The counts of the Sulzer indict
mlent were these:
Art. 1--Charging the Governor t
with, making a false statement of
campaign receipts and payments. ,
Art. 2-Charging him with -pe:'-]
jury in swearing that the statement
was true.
Art. 3--Charging him with bribing
witnesses to withhold testimony
from the Frawley committee.
Art. 4-Charging him with "prac
ticing deceit and fraud and using F
threats and menaces" to suppres
testimony desired by the Frawle? e
committee. - -1
These were- aI. E-erything-Sul- -
ter was accused of hung upon the t
statute requiring him to file a list
of his campaign expenditures. This
statute in New York is ,nly a fe',
years oli. It is nowhere mnoroe than

An Army of Half a Million.
New Orleans States: According to
the chief of the ordnance depart
mentment of our army, the United
States for the first time in history.
prepared to arm and equip "at a mo
ment's notice" an army of half a
million men. This is encouraging so
far as it goes, but it is well not to
forget that in the last analysis it is
only war that provides a real test
of a nation's fighting efficiency. At
the same time is is pleasing to know
that the United States Army has
modern rifles ani other equipment
for a force of half a million men.
There have been times when it did
not have proper equipment for one
tenth of that number.
At the present time the entire mil
itary force of the United States,
both the regular army and the State
militia, does not number half a mril
lion, hence it has been suggested in
Congress that we might build up a
reserve by holding on to men who
have served in the regular army.
After their terms have expired they
might be willing to serve three.. or
four years in reserve regiments.
If the men who have served in the
regular army could be induced to
form part of a reserve force, it
would undoubtedly mean a good
deal to the future fighting strength
of the Nation. We have the equip
ment for an army of half a million
men today, but as things are it
would take us some time to develop
a trained army to use the equip
nent.

New Baseball Deal?
In Philadelphia was circulated a story
that Connie Mack of the Athletics had
traded Outfielder .lames Walsh to the
New York Americans as part of a deal
by which Frank Chance sent Claude
Derrick to the Baltimore club. partly
owned by Mack. last year. When
President Farrell of the New York
Americans was asked about the sup
posed deal he declared that. while he
hadn't ' actually signed papers that
would make Walsh his property. some
thing might come of it later on.
"The report Is a trifle premature."
said Farrell. "and I only wish that I
could confirm it. It is true that last
summer when Chance let Derrick go
to the Baltimore club he asked Mack
to let him have an outfielder. "ne of
six then wearing Athletic uniforms.
Mack at first couldn't see it, hut as he
needed Derrick in Baltimore he finally
named three players from whom
Chance could make a selection. and
Walsh was among them."
