More is being done for true de-

than in any other way de-
clared Mrs. Harry Campton, president
of the Civic Club. speaking on THE
Club Woman" at the meeting of the
Woman's Club of Arlington, yester-
day, In the Lincoln School, Arlington.
THE unity of purpose of the club
is levelling all ranks: they
are all working for a common good
and thereby they are growing" she
said.
They are increasing in intelligence,
in value to the community, and they
are getting away from that wishY-
washY condition where it is woman's
influence only that they can use. They
are doing the things themselves, and
are growing more capable and desir-
able in the doing. 1t Is through up
lifting, not leaning, that we grow, and
thus forget self"
Mrs. Campton urged the members
to attend Federation department
meetings, where all members are well
come. and where they can acquire
helpful ideas. She advanced sugges-
tions for club and individual work, the
care of lawns and back yards. shade
trees me sidewalks, feeding birds, es-
pecially during the winter. Buck
wheat cakes, she said. were a deli
cious morsel for birds and furnish
them with nutriment for the winter,
Instead of throwing extra cakes into
the garbage, she suggested putting
them where the birds could reach
them. also pieces of suet, of which the
woodpeckers. hickers and blueiays are
fond. The condition of the streets,
Mrs. Campton declared, should be a
subject of study for every club. the
billboards and all public institutions
of the town or city. She urged the

FOR CLEAN ELECTIONS


To the men and women of Nevada:
During the last regular session
of. the state legislature. lin 1919 q
bill was introduced in the Senate
, known as State Bill No. 10,
generally called the Corrupt
Pratice Act the purpose of which
was to prohibit corruption in
primary and general elections. and
generally to purify poitics. One
Of the aims of the bill was TO
prohibit the expenditure, by candi
dates for Office of large sums of
money. That such expenditures
are an evil, no one will deny.
Probably there are in Nevada to-
day many men who are still ham,
pred with portions of the debts
contracted during the campaign of
1910. The practice sometimes lead
not only to defalcations, (Which
cause sorrow and modification in
the home) but to bribery and
other evils. Why is it that a
greater number of good men do not
run for Office? Largely because
their inherent honesty will not
permit them to take anything more
than the salary attached to the
Office and they do mt feel that
they can afford to spend a large
portion of that salary to get the
Office. Take for instance, as an
illusration, the Assembly. The
compensation fer an ordinary term
in the Assembly is $500. Under
the present method Of campaigning
the expense is often rs much. If
a man is elected he must put in his
, time for nothing and pay out of
his own pocket his rexpenses while
in attendance upon the session Of
the legislature. Think of it!
Now, only three classes of men
can afford the office under these
conditions. ID The rich man
who cares nothing for expense;
(2) the man who does not intend to
spend large sum of money to be
elected, and (3) the corrupt man
who fgures on getting back what
he spends, and great deal more,
through bribery and other corrupt
means. The rich man is usually
too busy looking after his private
interests to run for office. The
man Of moderate means who will
run for office and not spend money
is rare as every man has pride and
does not wish to run for office,
feeling in advance that his failure
to spend money freely may give
his opponent an advantage. Allow
ing for few exceptions, we have
eliminated the men Of the firt and
second classes. This leaves the
man of the third class the corr
rupt, bribe-taking man. This man
Of the third class il the one our
present system forces upon US, as a
lawmaker, entirely too often. He
is looking out for himself all the
time. He never considers the
people, whose servant he is. Do
we want him? OF course not.
Then we must make, such laws as
will enable the map of the second
class to run for office, feeling that
he will have an even chance of
election. The Corrupt Practice
Act is the key to the situation.
What can be more desired than
purity in politics? Who is there
who will stand up and say he be-
lisves in corruption in our cleo
tions? Not one. There may be
