No candidate for the United States
senate will find it necessary under
the new direct primary law of this
state to maintain an elaborate suite
of rooms at the Mitchell hotel.
Olympia, during the coming session
of the legislature. But the Mitchell
will have it's crowd of politicians
just the same. And it will be COM
posed of women. There is no doubt
that the Woman Suffragists of the
state who are demanding the privilege
of voting in all elections held in the
state of Washington are getting the
political game down to a science.
This week it was announced that they
had engaged an elaborate suite Of
rooms at the Mitchell and that the
leading Suffragists of the state would
make their headquarters in Olympia
during the entire session of the
legislature. A prominent lawyer has
been retained to draw up constitu-
tional amendment. permitting women
to vote, and it will be submitted to
the legislature. The National League,
which met recently in annual session
at Washington. D. G, is following
the Washington movenmet with. the
greatest interest. 1t has been decided
to hold the next annual meeting of
the National Congress in Seattle. 1t
will take place during the Exposition
and the leading Suffragists of the U.
S. will be there.
After heavy rain We hear people
say so many inches of water fell. but
we wonder how many people know
what an inch of rain really means?
1t means more than one would at first
think. For instance. an acre is 6. 272,
GAO square inches and an inch of
water on it is, therefore, 6.272, GAO
cubic inches. That amounts at 231
cubic inches to the gallon. to 27. $50
gallons. which at s. "a pounds per gal
Ion. equals 226. All pounds, or a lit
tie over 113 tons. Thus in other
words all inch of rain means that rain
is falling at the rate of 113 tons per
acre. SO that the average farm Of 16O
acres would receive Is. $50 tons of wa
ter during a rainfall of one inch.
