Caught the countsrfelters.

Recently there has been detected in circulation considerable "phony" money. The false coins were Am erican dollars and half dollars, the former of the year 1890, tbe latter 1895. They were made of babbitt metal, and are light weight. For some time the authorities have been of a belief that the work of manu. featuring the bogus dinerO was done somewhere in Sonora; and acting upon that theory the de- tective agency of Pedro B. To rres, in Nogales, Sonora, has been working on that side of the line. A clue picked up led Mr. Torres to Magdalena, whence he telegraphed on Friday to Hon. Con O'Keefe, collector of customs at Nogales, Arizona, that he had captured the gang engaged in mak- ing the bad money, and had them all in custody. Mir. Torres is to be congratulated upon his success in this case. Taking the capture of the American soldier murderer at Magdalena yesterday, and the cap ture of the counterfeiters, his weeks work has been remarkably effective.

Idaho, Utah, Washington and Cali fornia fall in line? They are all neighbors. And Arizona is next.
 Women who came from the east to assist in this campaign have been amazed to see that thewomen of Arizona are taking for granted that they will get the franchise. The women of the east have told us that they are looking to the men of the west to assist them in obtaining the ballot.
 We have not resorted to street parades and brass bands. We have believed that the men of Ari- zona are too broaded minded, too generous to deny the women of Arizona this privilege. We are aware that we are not dependent upon the bigotry of the east for our privileges. For instance the young scapegrace in the Ladies' Home Jourhal who IS supposed to be teaching his darling gray haired mother what an idiotic sex she belongs to.
 Men of Arizona, we want your vote. And we do not think you will ever have cause to regret that you gave us the ballot. If you should find it to be a mistake, there is a remedy in Arizona you know.
 And listen, there will be a mass meeting of thousands. of women in New York City Tuesday, anxiously awaiting the result of the vote in Arizona, Oregon, Kansas, Wiscon- sin. live win, they will telegraph the news all over theworld to the women of every nation.

TO JosIAa BOND
And the Nee Who Have Made Up Their Miadss ss sSts agslnst Woman
 saffFsks.

We thank you for the interest you manifest when you ask for light on the subject of female suffrage.
 One of the reasons why we should be given the ballot is because our forefathers taught us that Taxa tion without representation is tyr rany."
 We do not wish to take any rights from the men. We do not think we know more than the men. We know we do not. We do not think we are better than the men. We have always looked up to them as masters, and we always will. But we think we understand the needs of women and children better than you do. We have helped you blaze the trail. We have helped you to make homes. We have helped you to make it possible for Arizona to become state, and now we wish to helr you make the laws which govern ourselves and our children. We do not wish to make all the laws. We only wish to help you.
 Woman is the complement of man. In the beginning "God created man, male and female created he them"
 Years ago women were occupied in the home more than they are today. Invention has taken woman's work from her. Weav- ing, knitting, sewing, butter making, canning, preserving pick ling have by the substitution of factory goods been taken practi- cally out of the home, and women are going out into the world to earn their daily bread. This is one reason why we need the ballot more than our grandmothers did.
 What effect has suffrage had in the states where it has been tried. Space will not permit me tell what has been gained But is it not enough to know that these states are all neighbors? Wyoming was the first to grant suffrage to her women. If it were bad for Wyom- ing, why did her neighbor Colorado follow her example2 And why did

Munsey Writer Deplores
Ignorance of Finance

THE ignorance of the American pub
lie on the subject of finance is ap-
palling," says John Grant Dater, in
MS financial department in Munsey's s
Magazine for April. For the lack OF a
little elementary knowledge. thousands
of persons are all the while putting their
savings into worthless propositions,
which promise huge returns, under the
impression that they are making in
vestments.' AS a matter of fact. even
II the companies were honestly inten-
toned, which is rarely the case. the in
Vestors are merely engaging in the Wild
est and most hazardous form of specu-
lation.
Financial news writer's Of American
publications, with comparatively few
exceptions, take the speculative view
point. They are so busily engaged in
guessing whether stocks will advance or
decIine-for such is the theme of most
so-called financial articles-that they
have little time at their disposal to dis
cuss constructive investment, or to en-
sage in elementary educational work.
