fireman running out of Hlllyard
Yesterday to friends at Hillyard
confirmed the report Of his mar
riage on August 81 at Occur d.
Alene to Stella Williams OF Libby,
Montana.
Fix was barred by a decree of
divorce given him April 4, 1911,
in the superior court, from re-mar-
rying for a period of six months.
In period of seven and one-halt
months Fix has been married to
two different women and divorced
once.
His first wife was Ruth Dudley,
to whom he was married at Hill
yard January IS, 1911. A few
days after the marriage Fix started
a suit for divorce on statutory
charge. The decree was granted
through default April 4, 1911, with
string to it in the shape OF a six
months period of probation.
Fix says that he waited as long
as the law requires, but the record
would indicate that his second
marriage was a month ahead OF
time.

A PROTEST AGAINST THE
WOMAN WHO INSISTS ON
BLOCKING THE STREET
By DOROTHY DIX.

Some of these fine days am going to
commit murder. and when am tried for
my crime, instead of sending me to
prison for life or to the electric chair,
the jury will arise as one man and crown
my noble brow with laurel wreaths.
More: A long-suffering and prosecuted
public that has been filed with dark
and bloody rage, even as you and /, will
organize societies and build monuments
TO my memory, for the victim of my
righteous vengeance is going to be the
fat, futile, aimless, purposeless, planless
woman who weaves all over the place,
blocking your way and keeping you from
getting where you are going.
You know this lady-Anathema be her
name. You are rushing pell-mell for your
train, or to keep an engagement. with
just the right margin of time in which
to do It. Suddenly your progress is block
ed by one of these slow-moving bodies.
You dodge this way and that, trying to
get by her.
No good. She wabbles first to the right,
and then to the left, zig-zagging this way
and that. or she remains immovably
stuck in the doorway while she ruminates
on the length of eternity, or chases a
loose penny a thousand miles around the
bottom of a shopping bag. the while you
stand helplessly behind her, filled with
dark, surging thoughts that would not
do to print.

In extending the invitation to wash

upon the subject of votes for their sex
the aim was TO gauge the sentiment of
every reader of The Herald's Page for
Every Woman upon this subject
While by no means every one who reads
this page has yet submitted an opinion
in the matter, the majority of the wom-
en- thus far entering the discussion are
opposed 10 woman suffrage. mainly on
the ground that woman's work now taxes
her strength to its utmost, and that she
has the higher, better part when she gives
her time and attention TO her home and
her family.
For the unmarried woman. suffrage
may be all right writes one anti-suffra-
gette, who asks me TO Withhold her name
in publishing the statement of her views.
Every woman who has neither nus
band nor children needs a keen interest
in life TO make it worth the living. It
might be very well if she could have the
ballot and spend her time in a struggle
TO uplift the country. But even for her a
voice in politics seems to me inexpedient.

1t seems to me a silly fear to con-
lecture that woman suffrage will create
friction in the home.
QuarreIinE Silly SuppOsItion.
why should a man quarrel with his
wife over her opinion upon a political
subject more readily than over a do
mestic one?
THE quarrelsOme will find plenty of
subjects, believe me, whether woman is
interested in politics or the reverse.
1t is a weakness-an unwiIIingness
to shoulder a grave responsibility-that
causes woman to shrink from the bal
lot where she does protest against
woman suffrage.
But the time has come when her
voice is needed; her sympathies are de-
manded; her keen and just Judgment

Just for novelty, next time you get

calmer give yourself some Of that same
excellent advice which you bestow on
others so freely.
