ADVANCE VOTES FOR WOMEN
James Bill, Providing for Vote Of
People on Equal Suffrage, Is Fa-
vored by Senate Committee.

Madison.-Suffrage for women in
Wisconsin took a forward step when
the women's suffrage bill was report
ed out of committee with recon-
mendation for passage. The only
dissenting member OF the committee
is Senator Albers. The committees
vote on the suffrage bill by Senator
David G. James of Richland Center
was 6 to 1, the affirmative votes
being cast by Senators Donald, chair
man; Gaylord, Hoyt, Martin, Perry
and Teasdale. The James bill puts
the question of votes for women cup
to- the present voters of the state,
the intention being to have them reg
lister their opinions at the next gen.
eral election. 1t is conceded gener-
ally that the bill will pass the SEN
ate, and it is claimed by Senator
James and others that it will have a
safe margin in the assembly

MAY SOLVE STUMP PROBLEM
and Seek Prize Offered by Wiscon-
sin Advancement Association

Superior.-The 500 railroad has
entered the contest of the Wisconsin
Advancement association for the ST.
600 prize for the most practicable de-
vice for pulling the large pine stumps
with which the soil of the northern
part Of the state is dotted There is
also method in it's entry, for the de-
vice will be used to clear up many
sections along it's own right Of way.
The railroad has set aside a fund
Of $50, 200 to be used in developing
a powerful puller, mounted upon
sk1ds or traction wheels 1t is sup
posed that the apparatus will follow
the lines of power skidder such as
is used in the lumber camps, al
though the mechanics are not limited
in their scope to any one design.
In lower Michigan, where the same
conditions prevail over certain sec
tons, a coterie of men joined cap
ital and purchased an old wrecking
crane from one of the railroads, and
mounted it upon traction wheels.
Moving under its own power, and
with the strength to lift a loaded
boxcar, it was able to travel the
length of field, clearing the stumps
for distance of fifty or more feet
to either side, and Furthermore,
stacking them in windows for fences,
for transportation to the turpentine
mills, or for burning. In a major
ity Of cases they were used for
fences. The company cleared land
for $40 an acre and made money.
There is no question that the eff
forts of the Advancement association
for betterment of agricultural con-
ditions will, within a few years, con-
vert the stumpy maze of northern
Wisconsin into one of the garden
spots of the country.

MAY SELL WINE TO MINORS
kenosha Judge Rules That Druggists
Are Under Less Restriction
Than SaIoonkeepers.

Kenosha-In the circuit court
Judge E. B. Belden has handed down
a decision in regard to the sale of
liquor by druggists, which holds that
druggists are not liable to prosecu-
ton for selling liquor to minors on
the same basis as saloon men. Ac-
ton was taken in the case of the
State VS. William E. Pomeroy, who
had been arrested charged with SELL
ing bottle of wine to a schoolboy
The court held that druggist sold
liquor under a special permit and that
as the liquor was sold not to be drunk
on the premises, it was impossible to
hold him under the same law as a
saloon man would be held for selling
to minors.

MISS EDNA FEWsON RESIGNS
Purchasing Agent of State University
Gives Up Position-Board of Re-
gents Accepts Resignation.

Mathematics Edna Fewson, pur-
chasing agent of the University of
Wisconsin, has resigned her position,
and her resignation has been accept
ed by the executive committee of the
regents.
Miss Fewson came particularly into
public notice about a year ago when
her right to hold the position as
purchasing agent was challenged by
Madison merchants with whom she
had been in controversy over the
right of the university to buy it's
supplies elsewhere than in Madison
The court upheld Miss Fewson's
title to the position, but recently
her bill for attorneys fees paid in
defending her title was disallowed
by Secretary Of State Frear.

CLEAN ELECTIONS
AIM Of NEW BILL
CORRUPT PRACTICES MEASURE
CONTAINS ORIGINAL FEA-
TURES OF IMPORTANCE.
Is ENDORSED BY GOVERNOR
Pamphlet Issued at State Expense,
70 Set Forth Party Platforms and
history and Political Records of
Candidates Is Among Provisions.

Mad1sOn.-A new corrupt practices
Dill embodying several new and i'm
portant provisions has been given the
mai touches by the committee on
electlons, and reported to the assem-
oly. The measure is a substitute for
the corrupt practice bills of Assem-
Dlymen Clark and Kay and of Sena-
tor Husting. IN the conferences on
the bill the committee has had the
adVlce of Gov. McGovern, Lieut.. Gov.
Ihomas Morris, Senator Husting and
Others, and it may be taken to rep
resent the executives views on the
subject.
The present bills upon the subject
are devoid of several of the features
OF the substitute. One provision will
be the publication of booklet for
state office candidates only, in the
bills present shape, but which may
be inclusive of senators, assembly,
men and congressman in the final
draft
This pamphlet, to be published at
state expense, will contain statements
about the candidates life, his per-
sonal platform, his attitude toward
public interests, etc. Furthermore,
and as marking the effectiveness of
the proposed law, it is to be provided
that such statements must be made
under oath.
Limitations as to the amount a
candidate may expend in primary and
election campaigns will be an impor-
tant feature of the act. Weekly re-
ports on expenditures must be made
by the candidate, his committee or
manager.
A provision as yet untried any
where makes a candidate elected
through corrupt practices, in viola
ton of this act, subject to disquali-
ication. On petition through legal
channels, candidate so violating the
law may be brought before a circuit
court to be tried by the judge in
chambers in or out Of term, for fail
ure to abide by the law in the above
respect. This disqualification liabil-
fty is in addition to the liability to
criminal prosecution, and makes the
corrupt practices act as nearly abso-
lutely protective of the interests Of
justice in elections as can well be con-
ceiVed

fer your unfeelingness to your little
sister," cried his mother, who stood in
the doorway with cracked, yellow
bowl of hot water in one hand and the
towel in the other. You are just like

of the sufferings of women which they
can't none Of yo1 know nothing about
Men always look at women troubles

was Dobbs standing there accusing
me cause my stomick turns at the
sight Of blood and him the one to un-
sew his own children If so comes they
need it." Mrs. Dobbs was still white
about the mouth, and the tears were
still undried on her red, round, shiny
cheeks. She stopped the water over
Miss Selma Lue's shoulder and soused
one Of Ethel Maud's little pigtail plaits
as she handed over the bowl with a
sniff1e
There, there, Mis- Dobbs, you know
they amt mite Of harm in Mr..
Dobbs; and as fer cussin', looks like
that sinful habit Is all the let-off man
have got, while woman can break
up dishes, slam the stove lids, spank
the children, and make herself cup
Of tea TO ease her nerves, and no.
body even knows she's upset"
That's all very well for a woman
that's as free as you Is, Miss Seliny
Lue; but married woman has feel
ings you can't never understand, and
one Of 'em is a cussing husband"
That's so, and 1 reckon can't

she's done doze off with the sooth-
ing of the hot wateri Open my bag
there and git me that old linen hand

off this rag tonight, and I'll fix it again

the relaxed little figure on the bed
without causing tremor Of the white
eyelids.

shame you amt got ten of your own,
you are that kinder lowering Like with
them. 1 shore am sorry for you,"
said the grateful mother as she jabbed
in the dart Of her sympathy with q
smile
We'll, don't know but it's best as
1t Is" answered Miss Selma Lue with
spirit, "fer you all are so good about
letting me help with yours. People
kinder grow along towards what they

down the street, but was interrupted
at every turn, it seemed. On the cor
ner she met Mr.. Dobbs, whose steps
were faltering towards home.
Miss Seliny Lue," he said sheep
ishly, with his face turned away from
her, IF it had a-been Ben, now, I could
-er-done it; but the little 'un-I-I
"Mr Dobbs, l respect you fer your
feelings fer I seen the thought ter
help were in your mind, but Ethel
Maud is a slimsy little thing as would
be hard for a man to handle. She is

II thank you, Miss Seliny Lue,
ma'am, and l do say as how you be the
master hand with the young 'uns I
was jest a-telling Miss Cynthie, who is
awaiting to see you, that it do seem
a pity"
Miss Selma Lue's progress down the
street was resumed before Mr.. Dobbs
had exactly formulated the regrets he
wished to express, but whose nature
Miss Selma Lue inferred from expe-
rience.
But her hurried return to her own
affairs was not to be permitted by the
anxious neighbors along the path of
duty which she had trod so excitedly
with Bonnie Dobbs an hour before.
Mrs. Kinney had been sitting on the
hot stove or curiosity, and her face
was determined and her voice was
compelling as she hailed from her
stoop.
wait minute, Miss Seliny Lue,
can't you? Whatever was the matter
with the Dobbses?" she said, draping
herself over the picket-fence as If she
had come to hear the news If it took
all morning and all the backbone she
possessed to extract it.
cit was bad accident, but it might
er been worse If she had a-run it In
her eye, though that woulder been
