Postmaster T. R. Hofer is circulat-
ing a petition asking the Board of
Commissioners to appoint County

recent act relating thereto. The law
provides that the County Commission
ers shall appoint such officer any time

owners of shade and fruit trees. The
official's duty it will be to ascertain
the condition of the trees Of this coun-
ty and he will have powers to enforce
spraying of the same when necessary.
or their destruction if they are beyond
saving
The desire to have such an officer
amounted in this county is because OF
the prevalence of scale which is kill
ing both shade and fruit trees, and the
usual opinion that spraying your own
trees will never eradicate the pests
unless all do the same.

EQUAL SUFFRAGE
Mrs. Williamson Addresses al
Open Letter to our Citizens

In equal suffrage lies our only hope
of complete representative govern
ment. Women are one-half of our citi-
zens. They have rights to protect and
wrongs to remedy. They have opinions
of their own. and more strenuous NOR
al sentiments than men, in regard to
the home, the State and the nation,
and they should be vested with the
right to express those opinions
through the ballot.
Nothing strengthens the judgment
and quickens the conscience like indi-
vdiual responsibility. The right to
have a voice in electing those who
make laws by which we are governed
adds dignity and power to citizenship.
1t is said it is not necessary for
women to vote because they are re-
presented by their husbands, fathers
and brothers. The trouble with the
doctrine of virtual representation is,
that it is not according to number.
Suppose a man who had wife, a wild
owed mother, four unmarried dan-
ghters and five unmarried sisters, his
vote then must represent himself and
all those eleven women. Yet it counted
but one; just the same as the vote Of
his bachelor neighbOr without a fe-
male relative in the world. This doc
trine is false in principle and infa-
nous in practice, because in a free
republic like ours, every citizen is en-
titled to Individual representation, and
no person having but one vote can re-
present himself and another person,
| even with the latter's consent
| The people are the government
women are legally part Of the peo-
pie and counted in the basis of re
presentation, therefore they are emit
tied to represent their own interests
at the polls. Another proof that wo
men are not virtually represented, is
to be found in the laws as they actual
ly exist. These one-sided laws were
not made because men meant to be
unjust or unkind to women, but sim
ply because they looked at things from
their own point of view. If women had
made the laws, those laws would be
just as one-sided as they are today
only in the opposite direction.
The enfranchisement of women may
be delayed longer than we think; i
may come sooner than we expect, bu
the day will come when man will re
cognize woman as his peer. not onl,

feet comradeship, the ideal union of
opinions that will promote the highest
development of the race
The justice Of the long debated
question, is now generally conceded
by men. The main obstacle which re-
tards its final decision is the indiffer-
ence of women themselves In our
ranks we have but a minimum of
those who really desire to be enfran-
chised. They rest on the belief the
franchise will be conferred in some
unaccountable way without any effort

damper on the enthusiasm Of new
workers.
AS women and suffra gists we must
learn to tolerate each other. and over
look differences in small matters for
! tous question of our enfranchisement.
This is the plan of action adopted by
men in public affairs Preaching the
! suffrage gospel in parlors and club
rooms will not suffice We must go
out in the ranks of everyday life and
do practical work. We should take an
interest in public affairs, lend a help
ing hand to public movements; thus
convince public opinion that we are
essential factors in our governmental
system. We must stamp the influence
of the wOmanliness of our nature upon
the country. as men have stamped the
manliness of their nature upon it. The
home in our national life should be ar
abode into which shall enter all the

which make good citizenship possible

FLOUR MILL, NIT.
Carsonites Fail to Respond to the Pop
uiar Call.


Last evening was billed for a pub
lie meeting of the citizens of this CITY
to consider the erection of -four mill
in this city. The people were notified
by both papers of this city but in spite
of the advertising Of the meeting there
were but three citizens of the town
present when the appointed hour ar
rived. Mr.. Beck however, was on
hand and in justice to him it must be
said that he failed to even register a
kick
The object OF the meeting was to
! talk the proposed industry over, to
gain the general sentiment of the peo-
pie on a plan that is just as much for
their benefit as for the promoter. The
town evidently failed to see the i'm
portance of the meeting or the future
benefit that might come from it and
retired with the chickens. Mr.. Beck
would make no statement regarding
his future plans. other that he has
five lots in Carson and is a property
holder. The lots comprise the land
he desired to use for the mill.
The plan he wished to place before
the people was a simple one. II the
project is a good one and Carson can
support a flour mill, he believes that
the people should lend their assis-
lance as partners financially in the
plan. and in doing this every member
would become a participant in the
earnings, and also see that Carson
flour received the first choice in
households.
Carson has a population much larg
err than other cities that are support
ing flour mills and if this city uses
flour. it should come from a home
plant. At the least calculation $5,oo'

STORE BOUGHT GLASSES.
Do Not Think that Your Eyes Can be
Fitted at the Nearest Drug Store.

Fitted at the Nearest Drug Store.
1t has not been so many years ago
since people bought and wore drug
store" spectacles altogether; and
there are many even in this enlighten-
ed age-especially those who live in
small country townsville believe that
they are getting the best to be had
when they go into the store, and at
ter trying on a few pair of glasses
buy those which they think the most
comfortable. The result of such pur
chase, in almost every instance, is to
permanently injure the eye sight. The
glasses selected by the patient him.
self are usually entirely too strong
for the eyes, and after being worn
a while, will cause intense headache,
or, perhaps, aching eyeballs, and the
sight very soon succubs to the strain.
This method of fitting the eyes
seems barbarous when viewed in the
light of recent scientific discoveries
and appliances, and is as absurd as it
would be to walk into dentists Of
nee and expect to buy set of ready
made false teeth to fit your mouth. 1t
is possible both for the dentist and
the refractionist to give you teeth
and eyes almost as good as those ma
ture bestowed upon you, but the great
est care and skill must be used in
their manufacture, in order to obtain
the best results, and they must be sci
entifically fitted to your mouth or
eyes in order to be of the best service
to you
Spectacles are like an egg-they
must be entirely good in fit and quail
ity, or the eye, like the stomach, will
reject them. Who wants "tolerab-
ly good" kind of glasses, hoping some
day to be able to get better ones, but
procrastination in this, as in all other
matters, is fatal. The eyes become
weaker and weaker from the excess
i've strain placed upon them and when
you do finally consult an eye special
list, there is frequently very little that
can be done for you.
This is progressive age, and the
more enlightened hail with JOY every
device which aids man in his search
towards perfection. Optical science
keeps abreast of the times and the
old fashion of trying on a pair of
UIQCCaSS Of
is so obsolete as to excite amusement
in the minds of those who have given
the matter any thought at ALL
OF course the man who sells you the
ready made spectacles is not going
to tell you that the glasses are not
what you need. Perhaps he believes
they are, but if So his ignorance
costs you dear, for there are upwards
of 10000 combinations in glasses
which are only at the disposal of the
expert refractionist, and should YOU
na('y simple cases of near or fan
Sightedness, it is then necessary tt
prepare glasses especially for you
which requires not only skilled labor
but an infinite number of tools, anC
it is easy to see that the percentage
of people who can rely on gettins
ready made spectacles is exceedingl,
