CAMPAIGNING IN OHIO
 FOR WoMAN'S SUFFRAGE.
Miss Emily Pierson and Miss Anne Forsythe Will Speak in the West.


 The campaign for woman suffrage in Ohio is being carried on with in creasing zeal as the weeks go by. Ohio
 will be the first to vote of the six states where constitutional amend
 ments to women are pending. It is
 for this reason that suffragists all
 over the United States are manifest
 ing so keen an interest in the Ohio
 campaign. Connecticut is not back
 ward in showing interest and helpful
 ness, for the Connecticut Woman Suf-
 frage association is lending to Ohio
 the services of Miss Emily Pierson, its
 state organizer, for the month of Aug
 Ist Miss Pierson started last Sun
 day in her new automobiles birth
 day present of very recent date. The
 automobile, which was christened
 Votes for Women" immediately af- ter it came into Miss Piersons pos
 session was gaily decked with ban ners and suffrage colors and bore a
 device proclaiming it's name and ser vice. Miss Pierson started from Cromwell and her first objective was Danbury. Here she was joined by Miss Anne Forsythe, who has been Miss PiersOn's colleague on two of the campaigns for woman suffrage in this state. Miss Forsythe made her first appearance as a speaker for suffrage
 in the trolley campaign through the three counties of Fairfield, New Ha- ven and Hartford. This campaign | lasted from January 24th to March
 18th of this year. She was again as- sociated with Miss Pierson in the New London county campaign, which
 came to an end last week.
 As soon as Miss Pierson and Miss | Forsythe reach Ohio, they are to be- gin a tour of outdoor speaking. They expect to be actively at work in the l state during the whole of August, and then to join in the great final parade and demonstration in Columbus on the | last day of the month. For this dem- l onstration, Mrs. T. N Hepburn, pres ident of the Hartford Equal Franchise 1 league, will also be in Columbus. She | is going with her sister, Mrs Donald | R. Hooker of Baltimore, president of | the Just Government league of Mary ] land. The two sisters will go from 1 Baltimore to Columbus in Mrs. Hook i er's cara car, which, like Miss Pier 1 sons, will announce its errand all the way to Ohio. Mrs. Booker intends to l leave for Columbus on August 18th
 and to help in the open air speaking during the final week of the cam | paign.

of the opportunities for pleasure and recreation in the park. The swings near the lake have been constant at traction to the young people, and the pheasants and ducks and geese, the latter out on the pond, have interest ed many. Automobilists have found the roads in good condition, and the trip to the lake has been enjoyed by many, while the footpaths in many places are charmingly picturesque. The heavy rains have not damaged the park roads to any great extent but on the steep hill south of the dam there was a slight washout.
 Numerous favorable comments have been made on the fine appearance of the entrances to the park, esperady at Rockwell street, where the shruos have been excellently cultivated and there has been a succession of blooms all the season.
 Another new improvement that the park commissioners have just had work started on, is the building Of a patch from the haed of Mckinley ave- nue to a point near the Rockwell street entrance.

JUDGE REEDS ORDER
 WILL BE APPEALED
Central Vermont Road Protesting Viz orously Against Restoration of Early Train,


 Still another chapter may be added to the fight between the Central Yer mont railroad company and the public utilities committee of the state over the restoration of the early morning train which the road maintains Is run at a loss because of lack of sufficient patronage. Late Monday afternoon, the railroads attorneys, Kenealy, Brennan & Whittlesey, filed with As sistant Clerk Norman of the New Lon don county superior court a notice of intention to appeal from the order of Judge Reed, compelling the com pany to restore the early train. The company is thus running this train, which it placed back on the road on Monday Of this week, under protest.
 On June A the Central Vermont railroad company put new time table into effect, and this discontinued the early northbound train, a storm of protest being aroused from the busi- ness men of Norwich and all along the line because of it's interference with the mails and the delivery of produce On July II. the public utili- ties committee, after a thorough hear ing of the case, ordered the restoration of a train leaving New London, be- tween 445 and 5.45 a. m. The railroad promptly appealed from this decision and so, instead of replacing the train on July 15. as was originally ordered
 the road was not compelled to put the train on until this week, after Judge Reed had 60 ordered.
 The train Monday morning took two ! passengers from New London and left them at Kitemaug and three people boarded the train at this city. Wher the train reached Willimantic there ! were about 25 passengers on board Postmaster Caruthers of the Norwich postofflce had made sure of the mai | connections through Assistant Super i intendent Saunders of the railway mai l service, of New Haven, and mail an( | papers were put aboard here.

A meeting was scheduled for Monday night of the team captains and workers, but was postponed because of the death of Alfred H. Chappell, father of F.. V.

Note clearly that the money of

fact of the acquisition of such

OUR GAMBLING MONEY

Money makes the mare go,
which, elucidated, means that
money makes everything go.
Nothing is more important to
the people, at this time, than that
congressional investigation of
the money trust. Money is mer+
CHESS. Money can buy pretty
nearly everything, save genuine
happiness, and very many people
are ready to risk even that for
moneys sake. So that, if we find
that the merciless, almost onni-
potent power of money is concen-
trated in the hands of few, we
common folks must know that we
and all our concerns are at the
mercy of tyrants more powerful,
lustful and brutal than any Nero
or Caligula who ever ruled over
men.
At the risk of repeating what
our press association has already
told in our news columns, we. are
here going to tell what Pres. w.
B. Frew, of the great Corn Elk
change bank, of New York city,
testified to before the money

Mr.. Frew described the method
by which money is attracted to
New York when small country
merchants and farmers demand

or the accommodation of their
business affairs.
He said that the money was
