A Card From Mr.. Wright.
To the Democratic Voters Of
Rowan County:

Rowan County:
The people of Rowan county
have become awakened to a sense
of duty and determined no longer
to grope in the darkness and
grapple with pictures of the Office
seekers fancy. They fully realize
that it is time to arouse them
selves and assert their rights and
demand that they receive recogni-
tion and that standing candidates
stand aside and that their places
be filled with men who have the
interest of the masses at heart.
Therefore, it is now generally con-
coded that Jno. NJ. Tulian and W.
D. Pethel will be nominated for
the next legislature They are
men who have worked for tie
party's interests without hereto
fore asking for office and should
be nominated without hesitation.
1t seems that the voters all over
the county-towns included
want one man from Salisbury and
one from the county, so we have
in Julian and Pethel exactly what
the people want, and why net 60
to your polls on May 18th and
nominate these men? Yes, it is
true that our people are long suf-
fering and slow to anger, and
have endured and will yet endure
a great deal, but my friends, the
cup of human patience will get
full some time and the people will
call a halt. So, is it not time to
reflect and ponder over the politi-
cal situation of our county and
see whittier we are drifting before
our party is torn asunder? Now
the question is, shall we nominate
Julian and Pethel-one from Sal
isbury and one from the county
or shall we nominate two men
from Salisbury? Will the farmers,
working men and business men be
satisfied without representation?
Surely not. It is true that Mr..
Julian and Mr.. Pethel are both
working men and that Nj. Pethel
was raised on the farm and works
for his living, and that they are
both poor, but they can't help
tha5 they are poor, neither can
Pethel help that he was born in
the country on a farm and
on a farm until after
he was grown and then ran an en-
CINE to- make an honest living,
and instead of all this being used
against them it should be to their
credit that they spent their youth
full days in work instead Of idle
ness and lettering around street
corners and stores of our town. It
may be that on account of not hav-
ing legalized primaries, Julian or
Pethel will suffer some, but whose
fault is it that we have not legal
lied primaries? Think for one
moment. Last legislature I pass
ed a bill in the Senate giving
Rowan county legalized primaries,
and when that bill. struck the
other branch of the legislature it
was collared, choked, knocked
down, trampled upon and put to
an untimely death. Now who did
this and why was it done and
who was your legislator, eh?
In conclusion I desire to ask my
friends all over Rowan county
to go to their primaries on May
the 18th and do all in their power
to nominate John Julian and w.
D. Pethel for the legislature.

Mrs. Cole Gives Reception

Mrs. Seward Cole of Colegrove was
hostess at a charming reception given
yesterday afternoon at her cozy little
home on FL Centro avenue.
The dining room, where refreshments
were served, was beautiful in a dainty
color scheme of pink and white and
green and in the center of the table a
large bowl of chrysanthemums stood,
while from each corner of the table
ribbons of asparagus plumosus were
festooned to the chandelier.
The silver candelabra were pink
shaded, and white roses added theiI
fragrance to the sweet odors. Palms
and potted plants were artistically
banked around the table and in the re-
ceiving room.
The cloak room was decorated with
color scheme of pink.
The myriads of lights shining down
upon the throngs of handsomely
gowned women with a background OF
flowers and plants made a charming
picture against the gloomy, rainy
weather outside.

soft clinging champagne colored gown,
was assisted in receiving by Mrs. Cor
nelius Cole, Miss M. Bridges, Mrs.
Schuyler Cole, Mrs. j. A. Edmunds,

Society Women Are showed Upon

1t is not pleasant to be caught in a
driving snowstorm when you are only
prepared for the balmy Southern Cali
fornia, weather, as the members of the
Hundred Year club can testify. These
women, who are all prominent in Los
Angeles society, started out early in
the morning to walk to the top of
Mount Wilson, but they had gone only
half way when the storm reached them.
The weather man was severely scored
by these mountain climbers for not
apprising them of the coming storm,
but there was no use in turning back
then, so they trudged bravely on.
The members of the Hundred Year
club take these little pleasure jaunts
every Thursday, and although it is
quite an unusual thing for society
women to turn their attention to, they
all seem to enjoy it immensely, even
when they get caught in circumstances
like those of yesterday.

Neqress Is Fined
WOMEN'S CLUBS
Elect Mrs. Porter President

Mrs. Florence Collins Porter was
yesterday elected president of the Los
Angeles District Federation of Wo-
mems Clubs, to succeed Mrs. Oliver c.
Bryant.
Mrs. Porter is very we'll known here
among the club women, as she has al
ways taken a prominent place in the
Ebell club, to which she belongs, and
an efficient and capable officer may be
expected of her.
} Mrs Charles Lee Lewis was elected
recording secretary; Mrs. Fred Hooker
\, Jones, corresponding secretary; Mrs
A. T. Stewart, treasurer, and Mrs. c.
IS. Nichols, auditor.
Many interesting speeches were
made during the morning, Mrs. William
Baurhyte having as her subject,
"Womens Need for Women"
She insisted that the only thing for
women to do when put into Jail was to
sit still with folded hands and that
that wasn't right. She says that they
should be made to work the same as
the men and If they did so they would
be kept out of mischief, for when a
woman is working, Mrs Baurhyte de-
clared, she can do no evil.
Mrs. Baurhyte says, too, that no girl
who has come from Whittier reforms
and that that would not be so if women
were put on the board of managers, for
a woman knows what a girl needs
much more than a man would. Work
is the only thing to reform a woman
and If women had the control in any
of those matters the majority of the
girls would be reformed, were her
views.
Miss Cordelia kirkland under the
same general topic discussed the need
of women on the school board, saying
that wherever children were concerned
a woman should have some authority.
Mrs. George Sinsabaugh gave an in
teresting talk on art and Mrs. w. r.
Dickinson reported the work the libra
ry committee has done and Mrs.
C. A. Bronaugh told of the reciprocity
work during the last year.
One of the most interesting half
hours of the morning was spent by the
federation women in examining the
table set with a complete dinner which
Mrs. r. j. Waters, chairman of the
household. economics committee, had
prepared. Each article of food on the
table, and some of them stuff that we
eat every day, was adulterated. Mrs
Waters has done very efficient work
along this food adulteration line and
she crowned her efforts yesterday by
fixing this silent testimonial to the
things she is working against.
A large portrait relief of the late Mrs.
Kate Tupper Galpin, made by Miss
Emile S. Perry, was presented to the
women of Southern California by the
district federation. Mrs. w. w. Still
son gave the presentation speech. The
portrait will hang in the Shakespeare
room of the Cumnock school at 150C
South Flgueroa street.
The convention closed yesterday.

Radiated Magnetism in the
Cure of Diseases

Baron Won Reichenbach the most emil
nent investigator of magnetism known
to medicine, announced that in their ac-
tion magnetism and life force were as
far as he could see iden tical. He de-
clared, after years of experiment, that
nothing existed whose power to allay
pain was equal to that of magnetism
A generator for converting electricity
into magnetism has recently been in
vented by EMIL BACHELET, 307 Sew
erance Bldg, cor. 9th and Main Sts
The generators have proven very sue
cessful in locomotor ataXia, rheuma- =
tism and diseases caused by stagnation
of the blood. One great advantage OF
this treatment is that no medicine al
all is used.
