OUR FRISCO LETTER.
Continued from page one.)

rations have been able to interpose to
prevent Objectionable legislation.
The women's suffrage amendment
excited the greatest interest. The
tremendous activity of the women
was maintained to the very last, in
spite of hard fighting against what
seemed at first to be insurmountable
odds. It is generally thought that
the suffragettes won in the last few
days of their vigorous campaign,
when men seemed to quickly veer
from non-interest to active interest
and a desire to give what the women
wanted. Had the election been held
a week or ten days earlier it is DOUBT
full if the women would have stood
any reasonable chance of winning,
but if the election had come ten days
later it is pretty generally conceded
that there would have been a great
majority in favor of women's suf-
frage.
Not until two days after the cleo
ton was it definitely known that the
women had won. First reports were
discouraging, and when San Francis
co threw the women down hard, roll
ing up a majority of over $4,000
against the women's suffrage, it was
4 thought no gains in other parts Of
the state could offset such a setback.
Ardent workers in the cause gave out
manly" statements of defeat, hot
headed leaders declared that every
''purchasable" vote had been pur-
chased to the detriment of women
plans were laid for continuing the
fight in the futuTe-and then sud
denly came belated returns from the
remote districts of the state so over
whelmingly in favor of women's votes
that the ladies' took heart again,
rushed to headquarters and watched
the majority against them cut down
further and further until the vote was
even, then gradually went ahead until
a comfortable majority was piled up
in their favor. The fight was won
and the women were victorious.
Next, if not equal in Importance,
was the recall amendment, which In
cluded the judiciary. Governor John
son particularly interested himself in
the passage of this amendment to the
extent of campaigning up and down
the state for the last few weeks,
pleading with the voters, explaining
the nature of the amendment, fight
ing newspapers and the many politi-
clans and others who opposed him.
He won, absolutely.

An interesting commentary of his
work is that he just finished his cam
paign in time to prepare to journey
to the northern borders of the state
to welcome Taft to California. And
Taft so recently showed his decided
objection to the recall of the judi
ciary in the Arizona-New Mexico
statehood bill. California, suppos-
eddy a Republican stronghold, well
coined Taft with open arms, but Cali
fornia indicated it's belief in Gov
ernor Johnson and his policies by
doing everything he asked, and Gov
ernor Johnson leans Strongly toward
La Toilette.
Another amendment which no one
dared to openly oppose, yet which
may prove to be most ubiquitous, is
the employers liability law. 1t pro-
vides for the settlement of damage or
injury cases out of court, and with
out the long drawn out fights which
corporations make against poor EN-
ployes seeking payment for injuries
received while employed The idea
of the law itself is unquestionably
good. An employers liability law, strin-
gent in its application, is long step
in the right direction, but this new
California law, as it is regarded now,
may amount almost to a confiscation
of property, and as such will an
dOubtly be fought, in which case
there is a good likelihood of its being
declared unconstitutional.
The point is that a commission
may, under the law, be set to the
task of preparing a regular schedule
of reimbursements for injuries sus-
tanned by employees schedule much
the same as that found in accident
insurance policies. In case then that
an employee is injured while working
for some firm, the injury coming
from any cause whatsoever, no mat
ter whose fault the employee is auto
matically awarded damages accord
ing to the schedule. And the pay
ment of the sum cannot be refused,
with a consequent long delay while
the matter is being fought out in the
courts. There will, of course, be a
court of appeal, the commission
which will pass on contested points,
but the law is so obviously favorable
to the employees that some companies,
such as building and construction
companies employing hundreds of
common laborers, will probably be
forced out of business if the law per-
sists in its course. In the applica-
ton of the law an angered employee
may throw himself down and break
his arm of his ankle, and promptly
get more money than he has ever
heard of before-enough to keep him

Thanksgiving Day.

to her through the general delivery WIN
dow seemed to have come from abroad,
SD far as the clerks could remember. The
last letter the clerks recalled having
given to her was received about the time
she disappeared. There had been a par
ticular reason for Identifying Miss Ar
mold among the thousands of women who
get general delivery letters A little be-
fore Thanksgiving Day she called at the
post-office and asked that her letters he
forwarded to an adress in Washington
She spent several days in that city with
school friends.
The police do not think there is a sin
gle indication that Dorothy came to harm
in Central Park. Commissioner Flynn
who convinced himself nearly two weeks
ago that the investigation was hardly
a reasonable field for police work, said
to-day that he las seen no reason to
Change his opinion.
Seek Trace OF Girl.
The commissioner told Lawyer Keith,
in the course of an hours talk with Mr.
5keith at police headquarters. that it
wouldn't do any harm perhaps to make
careful search of Central Park for
traces of Miss Arnold. such as a piece
Of jewelry or an article Of clothing, but
that private detectives might as well be
employed in this business as the city
detective. Mr.. Flynn, it is known, did
not consider seriously Mr. Keith's sug-
gestion that the park lakes be dragged
for the girls body. He told Mr.. Keith
that il the family was serious in that
notion, OF course the police would help.
The family did not go to the park au-
thoritieS for permission to drag the lakes.
Park Commissioner Slower said that he
didn't see how the work could be done,
and. anyway, he hadn't been requested to
do 1t.
The police have been aware for several
days Of facts that the family and the
lawyers have been admitting piecemeal
from day to day. All that has been dis
covered appears to show that Miss Arnold
disappeared Of her own volition. The de-
tective bureau dropped the case because
it's officials became satisfied that the girl
left home because she wanted to, and
that she had a right. being Of age. to do
as she pleased.

COLONEL MESSAGE
TO PROGBSSIVES
Annual Dollar Dinner Finds
Enthusiasm Rife.

New York. Jan. 3o-Much enthusiasm
was stirred UP at the fifth annual dollar
dinner of the progressive Republicans of
Hudson County at Grandview Hall Jer-
sey City, tonight by a message from Col.
Theodore Roosevelt. Of Oyster Bay, who
has not been heard from lately. The
message was in the form of a letter to
George L. Record. and 500 pregressives
made a big noise when it was read. The
colonel said in his letter:
LAS 1 have said elsewhere, I am a
progressive: I could not be anything else.
for the progreSSives are those who really
believe in the people who stand for the
fundamentally of popular rule.
I'VE must work and We must fight for
the restoration of popular rule, striving
to secure the adoption Of such instru-
ments of popular rule as the direct pri-
mary. strict election laws. and corrupt
practices acts, the popular election Of
United States Senators, the direct nomi-
nation Of delegates to Presidential con-
vcntions, and. with careful limitations
and safeguards, the referendum and ini-
tiative. where these are shown to be
needed.

Of government by the people, which is
the welfare Of the people. The true end

THEODORE ROOSEVELT"
United States Senator Moses f. Clapp.
of Minnesota, described himself as a
Lincoln NJ cKinley Roosevelt Republican,
and declared that the Roosevelt policies
are Republican policies. He said that the
progressive movement got impetus as the
result of the last tariff bill. and predicted
it would go on until its principles pre-
vailed.
Clifford Pinchot said the movement is
bigger than all political parties, and he
believed the hope Of the Republican party
lies with the progreSsives.

purpose, and he forthwith sub
mitted a plan to advertise in the
towns through which the special
train would run.
The plan involved a small ex.
penditure of money, perhaps
$4,000 to $4,000. but it was such
a good plan. so INTELLIGENT,
so TIMELY. that the officers
adopted it quickly, and gave an
order to use two full pages i'll
some cities, one full page in other
cities, and one-half page in still
other cities-256 cities in all. The
expenditure finally amounted to
about 10000.
Just think of that amount of
space being used in newspapers
in 256 cities for that amount of
money! 1t confirms what | have
often said - that NEWSPA-
PERS CAN GIVE IMMEDI-
ATE PROMINENCE, in most
impressive way, to any business
at a very reasonable expenditure.
The work of preparing the
copy and illustrations was her
culean task, but it was accom-
plished in time, and was ad-
mirably done.
1t involved printing the pic
lures of 1873 Hundred Pointers
in papers that carried two pages
and one page. and in the smaller
communities the picture of the
salesman in that community. This
necessitated the adjustment of the
copy to fit all of the communities
that is, putting in the name of
the salesman or statesmen, with
address and telephone number.
The statesmen did not know
anything about the advertising
until it appeared. They were de-
lighted with it. 1t was INSPIRA-
TION to them.
This was ADVERTISING

tional Cash Register Co., which

Milk dealers in Washington and milk
producers outside of the city are per
fectly willing that regulations should be
stringenuy enforced, provided that Dr.
w. c. Woodward and the public health
officials have nothing to do with making
or enforcing the laws.
That is what a. S. Trundle, who claims
to represent these classes, last night told
the Chamber of Commerce when he
indulged in one of his customary TRADES
against milk regulations.
He said lot of things about infant
mortality being greater under the present
system. Washington milk supply being
more impure and less clean, tuberculin
test being farce. and pasteuriZation of
milk a failure. Mr.. Trundle failed to
receive any support in ibis contentious.
The meeting was called by President
Oyster to consider the report of the milk
committee, of which J. Louis Willige is
chairman.
The chairman had not gene very far
