The result of the spring election from
a few places has been reported to the
state office. At Edgewater the vote for
the Socialist ticket of mayor and trus-
tees ran from 1873 to 149 while the fusion
ticket called Citizens Progressive ran
from 1855 to 165. At Oak Creek the So
ciallsts won the election of mayor and
trustees by a vote of 155 to 179 against
the fusion ticket of a vote from "A to 80.
At Crested Butte, just organized in
March, the vote stood for mayor: Boost
er party, 214; Labor party, 10: Socialist.
67. At Center. organized in March, the
vote for the Socialist ticket for mayor
and trustees was 80 straight Socialist
votes. II Citizens and 166 Taxpayers

So. At Minturn, organized in February,
the Socialist candidate for mayor and
one trustee were elected over the COM
bined Capitalist ticket. At the towns OF
Lafayette where the coal miners have
been on strike for two years the Socialist
vote ranged from Sc to 65 and the Labor
MON ticket was elected. At Louisville
which is in the same condition as La
fayette, the Socialist candidate for mayor
received 125 against 331 for the Labor
Union ticket. The wage workers in these
places have been organized only few
months and do not yet understand that
the Socialist party is the only labor party
in politics, as 1t does not ask for wages
which is only a small percentage of the
product but demand the whole value they
produce. At Rico where the Socialist
party has not an organization the vote
for mayor was. Citizens. 6S: Socialists,

trustees for one year and three trus-
tees for the two-year term, so the Social

The national office has published a
notice calling the attention to the Ma
tional Party Constitution which is as fol-
lows: mo person shall be nominated
or endorsed by any subdivision of the
par. for candidate unless he Is a men,
ber of the party and has been such for
at least one year. but this provision shall
not apply to organizations which have
been in existence for less than one year"
The national secretary in the comment
says: 1T has come to my knowledge
that there is a disposition in some quar-
ters to ignore the above provision. I'm
doubtedly here and there designing self
seekers are coming in. It is far better
to have no tickets at all. than to have
them in violation of this provision.

majority of the membership to live up to
the Constitution and | bring this matter
to your attention in order that you may

FOR HIS FAMILYs SAFE.

Paterfamilias was a very robust man,
but he called in the doctor. If the
truth be told, Paterfamilias was so
healthy, 80 big and SO robust that he
had grown into the habit of bullying his
family.
IT don't know what's the matter with
my family he remarked to the medico,
''but my wife is nervous, my children
are suffering from something-I don't
know what In fact, the whole house
hold is upset. All the servants are bor-
dering on nervous prostration. What
do you think about it?"
The doctor was a friend Of the fanai-
ly, and knew a little of it's history.

said, "if you took a six months tour Of
Europe-alone."
"Me?" replied the father ungrammat-
ically, in his surprise. Me-"

Miss Blaney had put the last touch
to her frock and pinned a fascinating
little curl in place over her right ear,
and was now ready for the stage, Her
couture, by the way, is a most inter
esting one. The front hair is parted
and waved back naturally, the back
hair is wound around the head in a
tight swirl fitting the head closely and
bringing out its pretttly modelled con-
tour. The curl is made of the end of
the hair.

WHEN WOMEN SHOP TOGETHER.
~ YSEY MAYME APPLETON and
1 Ithree of her friends started out one
morning To Snend the day shop

HAYSEY MAYME APPLETON and
Ithree of her friends started out one
morning to spend the day shop
ping together.
Now, we want it understood" said
the Suffragette. that each one pays her
own expenses. There is to be no treat
ing"
When they passed through the ticket
office, the Meek One was the only one
who had change, and she paid the car
fare, each one declaring she owed the
Meek One nickel.
At the notion counter the Suffragette
borrowed thirteen cents of Daysey
Mayme to pay for writing pad on
which to note down Reasons Why, and
the Frivolous One borrowed two cents
of the Meek One, and eleven cents from
Daysey Mayme to buy a box of pink
powder, all of which borrowing was
done to avoid the long wait for change.
At the luncheon hour, Daysey Mayme
traded her fifteen cent pudding for the
Frivolous Ones ten-cent ice cream. and
the Suffragette found, by borrowing two
cents from Daysey Mayme and a penny
from the Frivolous One, that she had
change to pay the Meek One for her
share of the first carfare
During the day 1t was necessary to
pay three additional carfares, and the
Suffragette was the banker on the first
occasion, and Daysey Mayme, the B'riv-
olous One and the Meek One uniteQ
their resources to pay the remaining
fares.
There were two visits to soda foun-
tains, which resulted in Daysey Mayme
owing the Frivolous One seven cents
more, the Meek One two cents less, and
increased the debt of the Suffragette to
her to thirty seven cents.

and quite unusual amount Of good

You can say that | like gardening

Blaney.
But alas! This was not what I
wanted and / feared that the readers
of this paper would not all be able
to achieve fame. as we'll as beauty, by
such means. My mind was still full
of the delightful play that was going
on downstairs, for Ann" was prepar-
ing for the last act After you have
listened for an hour or so to Bernard
Shaw, 1t is almost impossible to get
back to the commonplaces of physical
culture diet and the other means by
which our famous beauties enhance
their appearance and kindle the light
of envy in the breast OF all the other
women
so asked Miss Blaney to talk
about Ann" the superwoman, she of
the life force and the delightful catty
ways, which Miss Blaney acts with
such charm and skill
One of the most interesting things
about this play is the change in the
audience. When II was flrst given, peo
pie did not know whether they ought to
laugh, and women resented the char
acter OF Ann, though they all knew In
their heart of hearts that she Is the
woman who can bend even the strong
est man to her will Now they never
miss a point.
TT does seem curious" conttnued
Miss Bianey. that men will be com
pletefy taken in by q character like
Ann, but when they see a sincere,
frank. straightforward woman they at
once believe that she is a deep char
acter planning all kinds Of pitfalls, In
deed, that she Is a woman to beware of.
My sympathy is. of course, with the
sincere, straightforward woman. but /
must admit that the Ann type gets on
better, and | believe that every woman
In the audience realizes 1t and has a
certain Sympathy with Ann, and is
glad that she always gets her way.
Perhaps there is little of Ann In
every one of u.s." laughed Miss Blaney.
THE redeeming feature about her is
that she has a sense of humor."
Miss Blaney had taken off the pretty
yellow automobile coat, the little hood
with it's big crimson rose, and was
now wearing the frock of the last act, a
