MINISTERS BANNED
LEAGUE SPEAKERS
Say They Don't Want Anti
Saloon League Speakers
to Fill Their Pulpits.

The members of the Richmond Min
isterial association are divided on the
advisability of bringing speakers fur
nished by the Indiana Anti-Saloon lea
que to this city.
The league has sent speakers here
annually for many years past, but now
many of the prominent ministers of
the city are objecting to it. At the
meeting of the association this morn
ing the local ministers were asked on
what Sunday they wanted the speak
ers, and 1t was learned that many min
listers did not want the league speak
erS at all.
Whether politics is playing a part
in the opposition of the local ministers
could not be learned. but one promi-
nent member Of the association stated
that when the Anti-Saloon League in
dorsed Durbin for governor it spent its
force, and could never again be an in
fluential organization in this state.
This was the straw that broke the cam
els back according to the belief of
many of the members who attended
the meeting this morning.
Several ministers want speakers TO
come here and will take up special of,
ferings in the churches to pay their
expenses.
The Rev. ]. S. Lightbourn was ap-
pointed to represent the association at
the sixtieth anniversary of st. Paul's
Lutheran church. Rev. s. r. Lyons and
Conrad Huber were appointed to rep.
resent the association at the seventy.
fifth anniversary of the First Presby.
terian church, November Is.
The butchers of the city requested
the members of the association to an.
nounce to their congregations that the
people would do a great favor If they
would order their meat before Sunday

A BIPARTISAN PLOT.

OYSTER BAY, Nov. An a sharp
statement today Col. Roosevelt pitched
into Abe Gruber Of New York and
others Of the Old Guard leaders for
trying to influence Republican voters
to vote for Wilson If they are opposed
to voting for Taft Mr.. Roosevelt said:
Several gentlemen have told me
that certain of the New York bosses
who are Mr.. Barnes henchmen, Abe
Gruber, for instance, have recently
been publicly advising their hearers to
vote the Democratic ticket If they did
not feel like voting for Mr.. Taft. This
Is interesting as fresh proof Of how
close and intimate the alliance is be-
tween the two old parties and their
utter Indifference to principle if they
could only beat the Progressives. Mr.
Grubers attitude merely illustrates
anew what already has been shown by
the conduct of Penrose, Barnes and
Crane and the other Republican boss
es in New Jersey, Indiana and Illinois,
precisely as in Kansas, Oregon and
slightest expectation of winning this
election and that there one purpose
is to directly or indirectly aid the
Democrats so that the Progressives
may be defeated. The financiers and
bosses Of this type are entirely non
partisan in their feeling"
The colonel will end his campaign
with speech at the Oyster Bay opera
house tonight. Although he would ven-
ture no definite prophecy he remarked
that "everything looks all right"

A NEW COMPLICATION.

WASHINGTON, Nov. Adding
one more complication to a presiden-
tial election which may be thrown into
the house of representatives the death
Of Congressman George H. Utter, Re-
publican, Of Rhode Island, was an
nounced today. Mr.. Utters death may
have an important bearing on the
presidency, if the duty of election de-
wolves upon the house. as it adds one
more Democratic state to the list for
the present at least. Utter was a
staunch Republican from one of the
''tied" states, which are prohibited
from voting in the event that no can
didate receives majority in the elec-
the lower branch of congress. His
death makes Rhole Island Democrat
ic state so far as voting purposes goes
as Mr.. O'Shaunessy. the only living
Representative of that state, would
cast Democratic vote
AS the house delegation now stands
the vote for president would be as fol-
lows: Democrat. %; Republican 81
Tied 3 (Maine. Nebraska and New
MexicoD If a special election is held
in Rhode Island and a Democrat is ell
ected to succeed Utter it would make
doubly sure the casting of Rhode Is
land vote for Wilson and Marshall pro-
viding the house is designated to elect.
Would Be Tied Again.
A majority of all the states in the
union, or 25. each having one vote, is
needed to elect a president. II a spec
fal election in Rhode Island returns
Republican successor to Utter the
state would go back to the tied col
umn. If Roosevelt. Wilson and Taft
should so divide the electoral vote
that neither had ma jority in the cleo
toral college the constitution provides
that the house must elect and the low.
er body of congress has been tightly
deadlocked since the beginning of the
campaign. The sudden death of a mem
Der from any of the other three tied
states would tip the political scale in
the house either toward the Republi-
cans or Democrats and would bring
about an unprecedented situation. 1t
must be borne in mind, of course, that
the expiring session Of the 62nd con-
gress attempts to elect the president If
the electoral college fails. The con-
gressional election tomorrow has no
bearing on the three cornered presf-
dental fight.

appeals to her as being the right

The song that never yet has
been set to music is. The mans
place is at home. He has his
duties, it is true and is obliged
to be at his business place a
greater part of the time, but he
can attend to every detail Of
business and provide for the
family needs and still have
leisure. Life is a great game
and in order to win we must
depend largely on our partner,
and if we are victorious the
credit is partly his, and in case
of defeat we go down together.
The father and the mother are
supposed to plan and work
together. He has his duties and
she hers; neither can be too well
informed or understand too
clearly the details of this gov
eminent of ours, so when the
time arrives to decide important
questions both are ready with
contributions of earnest thought
and purpose to attain a result
that they deem to be benefit
for their especial needs.
Women: Now we have the
right of suffrage what will we do
with it? 1t is none too early to
begin TO think and plan on what
there is to be done. There are
SO many things that need, posi-
lively need the attention of the
women Of this land that it will
be hard indeed to make a start.
We will make mistakes for we
are human, but let us determine
that we will not make the same
one twice. Begin to study and
to think. Victor Hugo put it
into the character of the old
priest to say There are so many
mouths that speak and so few
heads that think" Let us as
men and women speak less and
think more, and be thankful that
we are free to act as our con-
science dictates.

The Election.
"a Change of Sentiment.

THE familiar words, "the
i smoke of battle" in many
cases meaning nothing at all
and in others a hard fight, can
be earnestly applied to one issue,
at least of the late campaign.
1t has cleared away. The ques-
ton of equal suffrage is not new,
having been agitated in a way
for years, being the subject of
ridicule, the butt of the practic-
al joker, but never the object Of
serious consideration unit !
recently. In years gone by it
was designated as "Woman's
rights, and all sorts of cartoons
and characters represented by
commedienes depicted the woman
as wanting to don the apparel of
her lord and master and go forth
to conquer worlds at large.
Wise men change their
minds, fools never" This is not
simply a quotation from some
learned writer, it is a fact, men,
wise men, who a few years ago
were advocating that woman's
place Was in the home and
should be CONSPICUOUS in no other
place are today platform speak
ers, who have spent their time
and energy trying to convince
the masses that they were
mistaken, and their influence has
been felt and has counted for
the cause. Once let US see our
error and no one can think or
speak with such enthusiasm
for we fear that the views we
have held heretofore must have
influenced some one and we
hasten to repair the injury.
The men who have been fight
ing against this cause nearly
always advanced this theory
first "The Woman's Place is
the Home" 1t is threadbare
and shiny Ten times out of a
dozen a man who makes this
assertion is the man who is
home only to his meals and a
small portion Of the night. He
gets that tender feeling for
home only for the sake of
argument. The man was right.
The home is the womans sphere
but in order to make a home that
is suitable environment for the
growing family it should be an
intellectual home and the mother
is the moderator. She can at
tend to her every duty there

was 8 years old he came to America and
landed in Montreal. More than six

Mr.. Ferris, however, has the
chance in the state that Mr..
Wilson has in the nation. Both

The New Governor

EOR the first time in twenty
L years Michigan has elected
a democratic governor, Wood
bridge N. Ferris of Big Rapids
having received a plurality of
10000 or more votes.
Mr. Ferris resembles to some
extent the newly elected presi-
dent of the nation. Both are
educators of high repute and
both may be termed novices in
the political game, although Mr.
Wilson has been honored by the
people Of his home state politi-
cally. Mr.. Ferris, although at
times he has been candidate
has never held public office. In
local affairs he had the mis-.
fortune to live in a strong re.
publican community and al.
though nominated by mis- party
for various offices was invariably
beaten. Eight years ago he was
the democratic candidate for
governor but was defeated by
Governor Warner. He has had,
therefore, no experience in
public affairs, and brings to the
