Where Women Vote.

La four stateS-Wyoming, Colorado
Utah and ldaho-women possess the
right to vote on equal terms with men
at all elections. Either full or partial
suffrage for women exists in twenty
six states. In eighteen states women
possess school suffrage. In Kansas
they have municipal and school suf-
frage. Montana and Iowa permit them
to vote on the issuance of municipal
bonds. In 1898 Louisiana granted
them the privilege of voting upon
questions relating to public expendi-
lures. With this exception the south
ern states have been slow in adyanc.
lug the woman suffrage cause. The
women of Wyoming, Colorado. Utah
and Idaho vote for presidential elect.

The AnnihIIatiOn or Distance.

How much nearer to each other the
nations of the world seem to be today
and really are to day than was the
case few decades ago! When weeks
and months were required for commun-
nication between the United States and
Europe the countries of the old world
appeared to be long way off. Now
the circumference of the old earth is
beted with telegraph and cable lines in
every possible direction. What hap
pens today in Europe, Asia, Africa,
Australia, South America and the great
islands of the sea is made known to us
tomorrow by great newspapers like
The Chicago Record Herald. whose
foreign correspondents are located in
every important city in the world out
side of the United States. In addition
to its own staff correspondents, The
Record Herald enjoys the foreign news
service OF the New York Herald, IA.
nous for many years for The reliability
of its foreign news; the New York
World, and also of that great co opera
tive newsgathering association, the
Associated Press. No other daily
newspaper in America possesses facil.
ties so varied and extensive for cover
ing the news of all nations.

MEDAL SHOWS PEACE COMPACT
Struck in Honor of First Treaty Be-
tween Indian and Saxon.

A silver medal comm emorating a
treaty between the Creek tribe and
Great Britain during the reign Of
George III is in the possession of a
citizen of Muskogee. The medal
weighs three and half ounces, meas
ures three inches in diameter, and is
in an excellent state of preservation,
having been treasured in buckskin
pouch and exhibited only on occasions
when national festivities were OBJ
served
Upon the face of the medal appears
in bold relief a picture of King
George and an inscription, as follows:
"Georgius III, d. G. M. bri fra hib rex
F. D." Upon the reverse side appears
a picture of an Indian and white man
sitting under a tree smoking the pipe
of peace, with three ships resting at
anchor in the distance, and a rude
settlers home nestled among the trees
by the seashore. Above this picture
is the legend: Happy While United"
Surrounding the medal is an eagles
wing and pipe of peace.
This treaty medal is regarded as
being the oldest in existence, and
probably commentaries the first COM
pact established between the Indian
and the Saxon. 1t was handed down
from chief to chief until about half a
century ago, when it was Entrusted to
the head men of the Tokepache town,
the most powerful of all the Creek
towns.

II is impossible for the Cresset
to refrain from springing
some cowardly lie on some
Democratic candidate in its
last issue before the election when
it knows that there is no chance
for the Index to nail the lie before
the votes are cast. It's last week S
effort was to say that O. p T.
Ewell paid for and sent out a copy
of the Kiowa News-Review to
nearly every republican in the
county. The editor Of the Cresset
knew this to be an unqualified lie
and he did not dare to utter it at
time when other papers could
get a whack at it, If Mr.. Ewell
had done what the Cresset charged
there would have been nothing
wrong about it, but we happen to
know that Mr.. Ewell did not do it.
What the News Review had to
say about the republican machine
was only its honest convictions,
strictly in harmony with what II
has advocated for several years and
the statement made by the Cresset
that Mr.. Ewell hired the paper is
false.

Simple Fashions.

Many of the seryiceable but mex
pensive materials are smart and wear
well-quite as well as is necessary, for,
after all is said and done, while a good
material is always a good investment,
women's clothes go out Of fashion
much sooner than they wear out, and
consequently 1t is not always a wise
Investment to buy an expensive mate
rial. Indeed, an inexpensive material
that is not a shoddy, poor piece Of
goods, If well made, is far better than
a very expensive material cheaply n
badly cut and made.
The latest rules are that even on the
plainest street gown there must be
some trimming; a touch of color in
the waistcoat, cuffs and collar, and the
band around the hem Of the skirt head
ed by q fancy braid are thought ex-
tremely smart. The smartest color SO
far Is the new shade Of blue, and there
are also some beautiful shades of pur-

the lead this year, nor used as much as
they have been.-Harpers Bazaar,
