Spain shows:
1. Married women have great dif-

and that many employers instantly
dismiss their cmploycs if they
marry.
'J. No married woman can prac-
tlse a profession without the consent
of her husband. Among the poorer
classes this consent is easier to Oh-

needed for the household; Among
business women'husbands are less
prone to give their consent while

3. A married woman may not

man can.
Steps are being taken by Spanish
women to remove these restrictions.

Governor Small of lllinols 111111
appointed Senator-elect Smith to
the vacancy in 'he senate of the,
United Slates caused by the death
of Senator McKinley. ills reasons
for making this choice are these:
“At The'gt'l’li'l‘ul election on the sec-
ond or last month. after an exhaust.
ivo campaign In which «tissues in-
volvcd and the qualifications of all
candidates were thoroughly discuss-
ed and considered. the people of ll-

decisive vote for United states son-
ator. in the six Weeks that have
elapsed since that date not :1. charge
or suspicion of undue influence or
corruption 11‘. that election has been
made. it was :1 fair and general
election. The large vote cast for
Frank L. Smith shows conclusively
that ho is the choice of the voters
of this great state. for United Stains
senator and in obedience to that ex-
pression of the people of Illinois. I
appointed him to represent this state
in ‘ho United States; senate tor the
linenplri'd term of the late William
B. McKinley "

corlts the ltppointment from the

that 111(- scnntc, or a considerable

ering the matter in a spirit. of par-
tisan passion and promising to throw

plans, are the most ardent in their
rejection of it. An emphasis is laid
on the right of the senate to judge
of its own membership which is out
of all proportion to the actual mer-
