It may be possible that j. P.
Vollmer is mistaken when he
says he knows what the North
ern Pacific intends to do and
that the road will build acrosss
the prairie but even if it does he
can't keep the P. & I. N. from
connecting here and putting
Cottonwood on the main line
north and south. We will have
a junction and terminal too
then.

Everett P. Rhea, a prominent
attorney of Weiser, was in the
city several days this week on
business. Mr.. Rhea is of the
opinion the P. & l. N. road will
build north as rapidly as possible
to connect with the prairie line
and provide a north and south
road throughout the state. He
says at present the road does not
serve a very large section and in
order to pay it will have to build
into this country. When speak.
ing of the prairie Mr.. Rhea said
it could justly be called the gar.
den spot of the world and that
only the lack of transportation
and difficulty of getting into this
country accounted for it being as
undeveloped as it is but with the
building of the railroads tits sure
to make a great growth.

A SUFFRAGE SURPRISE
Woman Question ETcites ConUen-
ton of Neo0 Jersey Federation.

A bold attempt to stampede the New Jersey
State Federation in favor of woman suffrage
was the chief event of the annual spring meet
ing held in Metuchen yesterday. Before one in
ten Of the five hundred women present realized
what was up a recommendation from the in
dustrial committee of the General Federation,
Miss Jane Adams. of Hull House, Chicago chair
man, had been sprung. indorsng the principle Of
equal suffrage and such agitation as would Sc
cure the ballot 70 working women. and urging
the federation to instruct its delegates to the
st. Paul convention Of the General Federation
to vote for the same.
A feeble round of applause from the suffragists
had been followed by motion from an especially
acute anti-suffragist to refer the resolution to
committee before most Of the "antis' woke up.
Then Mrs. James NJ. Trimble. Of Montclair.
jumped to her feet.
This is no time or place TO discuss suffrage"
she said decisively.
The "antis'' applauded vigorously. A dozen
women were on their feet in a second. clamor-
ing to be heard. and in the face of what prom
ised to be big storm the resolution was re-
ferred to the legislative committee, the commit
tee to report at the afternoon session.
But, like Banquos ghost. it refused 70 down,
but kept bobbing up all through the afternoon.
Mrs. Stewart Hartshorn, Of Short Hills, who
made a plea for working girls wound up by
urging the women to get the ballot"
You don't know what it means to have a
horne. L found out last winter we had a fine
woman running for postmistress in our town.
A stick Of a man got it. because he had a vote"
There are only few women who know how
TO Vote objected Mrs Trimble. Il am an in
telligent woman, but if I could vote 1 should
have to ask my husband which way to vote
That brought Mrs. Florence Howe Hall to her
feet. When any one says women are too igno-
rant to VOTE she said Il feel must say some-
thing: 1t is high time we did know enough. II
we're too ignorant to vote Tn afraid our
vaunted club movement hasn't done as much
for us thought"
When the legislative committee reported it was
to recommend that each club consider Miss Ad-
dams's resolution, and report it at next years
spring meeting of the federation. The "antis''
heaved sigh Of relief
If this issue had been pushed through 1t
would have disrupted tho federation" said one
clubwonan.
Others pooh-poohed the idea Of disruption.
Nothing could disrupt the Jersey fed they
declared stoutiY. We aren't like the New York
clubwomen-always fighting and manoeuvring
for Office
Mrs. Maud Ballington Booth and the Rev.
Antonette Brown Blackwell were the leading
speakers of the day. New York was represented
by Mrs. Belle de Rivera and Mrs. Lille Devereux
Blake Although this was not election meet
ing, considerable electioneering went on quietly.

ship are preparing to furnish extra pro-
visions and luXuries for the prisoners

mas day
Whatever the opinions of the citizen
ordinarily may be concerning the rigor
with which prisoners should be treat
ed. he certainly agrees that on Christ
mas day there should be am exception
and that the light of human kindness
and good cheer should shine into the
darkest places.
There are probably many of our be-
nevolent citizens who would be pleased
to share i'm furnishing the extras for
this dinner and contributions of all
sorts of food, chickens, turkeys, cakes,
pies, fruit, nuts, candies, etc, as well as
