THEY ere TIRED OF 1T.

TIL women of Colorado, Utah and
Wyoming, who have already voted
in one Presidential election have tired
of the exercise of suffrage and hardly
half of them will vote in the coming
election, according to the registra-
ton lists.
In these States, in a majority of
cases the wife votes the same way as
her husband, the sister follows the
brother or father, and the maiden
without other guidance depends upon
the political Judgment of her closest
male friend. In the Judgment Of
the practical politicians of these
four States women suffrage is a small
factor in determining the result of
an election, as the vote is distributed
pOrportionately to that cast by men.
But nov the novelty has worn off
and almost a majority of these West
ern women do not care to vote.
It is declared that woman suffrage
has brought about two things, one
being order at the polling booth and
another a distinct appeal to decency
in the personal qualification of the
candidates Nominated by all parties.
On the other hand, some of the men
who have paid considerable attention
to the subject say that the introduce
ton of the women's vote into the
political situation has brought about
al uncertainty and disturbance of
normal political conditions which is
useless and MISUNDERSTANDING.

AN APPEAL

To all Surviving Members of the Second Regi-
ment N. C. Jr. Reserves, and the Relatives
and Friends of Those Who Have Passed
Over the River"
Correspondence of The Progressive Farmer.
The time has arrived when the
volume must go to press which is to
commemorate the deeds of the North
Carolina soldiers in the war for
Southern independence, and no
sketch of the Second North Carolina
Junior Reserves (Seventy-frst Regi-
ment) has yet been prepared. Their
eminent services during the lastyear
of the wal (ready always to answer
every call of duty, whether in or out
of the State), as we'll as the unique
character of the command, being
composed entirely Except a few of
the field oficers) of boys II to IS
years of age, forbids that the States
history should be written without
mention of their services. Judge
Walter Clark, who was himself a
boy colonel in this command, only IS
ear of age, is editing this history,
and has earnestly requested that
some one collect some statistics and
"reminiscences of these boy soldiers
for the forthcoming volume, and the
writer has consented to gather some
material for this work. 1t is under
stood that papers on the other regi-
mentS of this command are in course
of preparation by competent mem
bers of those regiments, while ours,
the Second, is in a fair way to be
relocated altogether. MOore's Roster
contains a list of only three cOmpa-
MES, A, B and G, of this regiment,
and it is very much desired to com
plete this record for some future
publication. Some daguerreOtypes
or photographs of members of this
regiment, taken not later than 1867,
are especially desired, and the same,
if entrusted to the care Of this writer,
will be returned to their owners
after having been copied for use in
this history. Now don't be too
modest and don't wait for a personal
solicitation. Send your own picture,
or that of some friend, whether
officer or private, and send them at
once, with any "reminiscences that
would add interest to the publica-
ton. Your friend and cOmrade,
D. E. McKINNE,

to have the authority Of laws and
their infraction to be punishable as
a misdemeanor.
2. The Board to require that all
seed dealers in the State take out a
license, which is furnished by the
Commissioner of Agriculture free of
cost. Licensed seed dealers must
brand, tag or label their seeds with
the guaranteed per cent. of purity
and vitality. Dealers are allowed
to send 25 samples of seeds each year
to the Department and have these
analysed free of charge. Further
analysis at cost. Purchasers are al
lowed to have as many samples as
they please examined at the Depart
ment to verify the guarantees Of
dealers. Dealers are required to
take back all seeds not equal to the
guarantee and pay all costs. Seeds
once planted are at the risk of own
er. Seedsmen do not guarantee
crops.
The adoption of the above scheme
of seed control will have a beneficial
and far reaching influence. Seeds
men will be compelled to descend
from their high horse and do bust
ness upon a basis familiar to those
who deal in leather and clocks.
Purchasers will learn that low
priced seeds are not as a rule cheap
seeds. Farmers sowing mixed grasses
and clovers will get more heritage
and less weeds and will thereby be
able to carry more and better stock.
The lovers of garden sass" will not
so frequently get left and much seed
now on the market will be fed to
poultry and pigs.
