1IKENs A WOMAN TO A DOG.

The women who oppose suffrage for
women are PLAYING the part of the dog in
the manger There is no proposition to
compel women to vote. If A woman does
not want to vote she will not have to but
she has no right to stand in the way OF the
woman who does want to.--Leavenworth
Times.
How readily a female-sufrage male
drops into applying slang epithets to
womanhood. No anti-female-suffrage
man would ever think of referring to a
woman as playing 1.-The part of dog
anywhere. 1t wouldn't be long before
these male equal-suffragists would be
applying the other gender of the same
dog to women. AS for the rest it is a
gratuitous insult to mouth that "she
don't have to-" Women, the great ma
jority of women, oppose female suffrage
for the sake of the happiness and welfare
of themselves, their homes and the chill
dren coming after them. Their woman's
intuition, more infallible than all reason,
their mother-instinct, which Is purer
than any political platform, are unfail-
ing, protesting monitors, being also sure
indicators of what is best for them and
theirs.
AS for the assertion that "a woman
will not have to vote if she don't want
to-" in case female suffrage is adopted.
it is not true. Female suffrage once the
law and all women, however repellant
the idea to their womanly instincts, will
be compelled to vote. Physical inability
on election day viii prove the only ade-
quate excuse. Through the interests Of
husbands and fathers and brothers, in
counteracting and defeating the candi-
dates and measures of the side supported
by the heelers. the buns and by the
questionable female characters, and the
most reluctant and modest of wives,
and daughters would be overperSuaded
to make the sacrifice and go to the polls.
Besides. in the event of female suffrage,
all these glib tongued women who are
eternaIly seeking notoriety, would
be in the political swim up TO
their eyes, putting forward their
favorites, making tattling canvasses and
street gossip campaigns. not only, bat
be running for office themselves. To
say that the average woman, however
naturally timid and retiring, would not
feel impelled to go to the polls to help
their husbands and sons shut off such
undesirable element would be to say
that women are not human. Under
female suffrage when Jane Jones sets
up her pins for seat in the city council,
or manipulates her weak, open
mouthed contingent for place on the
school board, everybody can rest as
sured that the aforesaid snaggle-toothed

KANSAS OIL, SOIL AND MINERALS.

The plodding, rather sleepy, little
town of Neodesha is the latest candidate
for fame. In the early settlement of
| Kansas it was thought that the high
rolling prairies of the Verdigris and Fall
Rivers in the vicinity Of the town of
| Neodesha would prove unsurpassed
stock ranges, and that her valleys might
produce enough for home consumption.
The thousands attracted to Kansas in an
early day by her incompatible climate,
finding that they could not exist on
climate and untitled acres, experimental
with the oil,and the result is the state is
one of the most productive agricultural
states IN the Union. Slowly and grad
ually her hidden resources are being de-
veloped. On the eastern border coal.
lead and zinc have been found in I'M
| limited quantities, and but a few years
since, in the central belt, salt was found
in quantities that would supply the
world. Along the eastern line gas
indications were later found, from time
to time, but until recently never de-
veloped in paying quantity. But now a
dozen towns have their gas well, many
of which have a flow strong enough to
supply power for all needed manufac-
turing.
About year and half ago a gentle
man visited Neodesha and got fran
chise for supplying that town with
natural gas. He proceeded to sink a
well, which resulted in striking strong
indications of petroleum, but little or no
gas, and the enterprise was apparently
abandoned. Several months succeeding
this some gas prospector appeared again
in Neodesha, accompanied by Messrs.
Guffey and Galley of Pittsburg, Pa.
After a thorough investigation by the
gentlemen from Pittsburg. they pur-
chased what leases the or
iginal prospectors had and set
about taking new leases. These
| leases call for 10 per cens ROYALTY
| TO the land owners and an agreement to
build and operate an oil refinery at Neo-
desha, should they develop oil in suffi-
cient quantities TO supply refinery. In
many instances the lind owners got a
small cash bonus in addition TO the
promised royalty. Ii is supposed that
nearly all the land in what they believe
to be the ''gas belt has been leased.
Thirty-five wells have been sunk to about
an average depth OF 300 fee. with the
result of only three dry wells. Two of
the wells have developed irJo Gas flow

POLITICAL ELM PEELERS.

From he SaIina Republican.
The Wichita EAGLE thinks that if Mrs.
Lease was elected to congress IL would
be by the vote of the males-not the fe-
males, even if the latter had suffrage.
The EAGLE is right. The women do not
take as easily to "yawpers' as men.
There is already an aristocracy among
the female leaders, as is witnessed by
Miss Anthony and others snubbing Mrs.
Lease and Mrs. Cougar. They believe
that Lease and Cougar are doing harm
to female suffrage. Now the men are
so thick pated that they can't discover
much if any difference between these
eminent advocates of universal suffrage,
and would as lief suppors Mrs. Lease for
congress as any other female, provided
she is on the right side politically.

confidence in the result on their part.
That there is an Oil belt in the vicinity
of Neodesha there can be no doubt, as at
nearly all the wells sunk there is tank
holding about $50 barrels of oil and they
are full of oil. No statement has been
made nor can any outsider as yet arrive
at the actual capacity of these wells.
The history of all oil belts has been that
some large flowing wells have been
found. That oil should be found in the
rich fertile valleys of the Verdegris and
Fall rivers but illustrates that top soil
of the most productive land on earth
may be underlaid in Kansas by the
richest of mineral prod ucts.
