HAMMOND SUFFRAGIST
Says He Has Favored 1t. for Sixteen
Years.

Chicago, June 15.-John Hays Hammond,
the distinguished engineer, who is at the
Blackstone, has been a friend of the
women suffrage movement for sixteen
years.
women said Mr.. Hammond, "have
more loyalty and will stick to a cause
longer than men. When women are fig hit
ing for something they want there is no
end to their perseverance and hard work
In politics as in all the big questions of
domestic and social reform, they can oe
trusted to follow the right course and
their consciences. They want the ballot
primarily to better the condition of de-
pendent and unfortunate women and to
increase the safeguards for children and
the home"

Not only can women not be bribed
with ice cream and candy, says Judge
Littleford, but even the bait of an Of
flee will not attract many of them,
since most of them have their home
duties to consider.
When it was suggested that the lure

Did you ever see a woman who
wanted to get married turn aside for
ANYTHING ?''

To Whom It May Concern.

Chapter 248, Laws of 1909,
known as the legacies aud sue
,cessions tax act, under certain
conditions imposes lien upon
real estate which passes to other
persons by reason of the intes-
tate laws or by the will of testate
decedents, and against real es-
tate that is conveyed by deed
in contamination of the death of
the owner,
The law points out a method
whereby the value of the shares
of the estate of a decedent is to
be ascertained and the tax liabil-
ity against the shares is to be
determined. In no other way
than by having it aecertained
legally. as by law required,
whether there is or not liability
upon real estate passing as
aforesaid, can the title of record
of such real estate be made clear
and perfect.
To abstracters of title it is
earnestly suggested that in or
der to avoid liability attaching to
them by reason of omissions in
showing the lien imposed by law,
they should certify no abstracts
until the question of liability or
non-liability of the real estate to
the tax is determined by the
authorities whoare charged with
that duty. Purchasers of real
estate, the title to which has
passed by reason of the death of
the former owner, are also eau
toned to have the question of
title carefully investigated be-
fore they complete transactions,
as by not doing so they may in
cur liability which they must
themselves discharge or have
cleared at the expense of much
trouble and possibly cost to
themselves.
