Some Good Reasons Why Women
Should Vote.

Mr.. VIII Crooks, NJ. Z. has intro
duced bill in the English Parliament
giving women the right to vote at all
parliamentary elections
In giving his reasons for the support
Of this bill he says: Sin all my work
| aim ut making the the people self
reliant, able to think and act for them
selves, Therefore want the women
To have the power and responsibility
which the possession Of the vote gives
II is 10y this rather than by any con-
sideration Of how their votes will be
used that | ann moved to demand the
enfranchisement of women. At the
same time believe that the cause of
progress has nothing to fear from the
reform in question. We entrust to
women, as teachers and as mothers,
the all important work OF educating
tho future citizens. How absurd, then
to hesitate to give to those ssame wo-
men the rights of a citizen"

ing this fact tie publisher of Golfers

tective's adventures. Repeated re-
fusals were followed by increased in

tire correspondence was by cable. The

est ever paid for such work and does
not include the right to publish the

sas City Star, one story each week, be-
ginning, in the daily edition, Saturday.

RUSSIA WANTS ALLIANCE.
Russo American Entente Regarded as
Indispensable by SIavs.

ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. 1S-Rus-
STA wants an alliance with the United
States. An assistant to Count Lams-
dorff, minister of foreign affairs, said
today:
"a Russo American entente is indis-
pensable to prevent the far east from
becoming mere Anglo japanese
backyard. Americans have heretofore
supposed Russia was the chief OBJ
stacle blocking them from converting
the Pacific ocean into an American
lake. Now they realize that Russia,
without manufacturing industries or
mercantile marine, is not a dangerous
competitor, but rather, an excellent
customer, while victorious Japan, as
Englands ally, will render American
progress impossible in the far east.
Now that we are elected from Man.
churia, we no longer fear Japanese
aggression. But American interests
are exposed to it,
The war office has announced that
L1nevitch is to remain in Manchuria.
Fresh troops are to be sent there to
take the place of the others, who are
to return to their homes, was an ad-
d1tional statement of the same official.
