OIL QUEEN is THERE.
Mrs. c. L. Harnsberger Attending the
Chicago Convention.

Chicago, June 15.-Mrs. C. L.
HarnSberger, known as the "Oil Queen
of Wyoming is in Chicago to attend
the Republican convention.
Speaking of womans rights and suf-
frage she said:
Il am a Wyoming voter who votes,
but for heavens sake get this straight
I am not suffragette, or a suf-
fragist. I am a plain citizen, and I'd
like to see the man or woman who
says there is anything within the law
that 1 am not entitled to.
Suffrage campaigning? Piff1e, rot,
rubbish! The women of Chicago are
barking up the wrong tree. What do
they think suffrage is-a privilege :?
Ffddlesticks!
Suffrage is a right, just as much a
right as life and happiness. You can't
get by Grating from soap boxes on
the street. Start at home. A woman
who wishes power must begin inside
her own doors. Show your children
you know something. Show your hus-
band. Show him you are not bundle
of ribbons and scented f1nery, with a
powder puff for a brain and candy
box for a heart.
Gin the great west the women did
not harangue when they sought the
ballot. There they quickly showed
that they deserved the ballot-and
they got it. A woman who hasn't any
children has no right to vote, anyway.
I have two grandchildren"

MANY DRAWBACKS.
operate to Make Restricted Stock
Market.

New York, June 15.-Politics, conflict
ing crop news, more strike troubles
and federal Investigations were among
the factors with which this weeks dull
and narrow market had to deal. The
inquiry instituted by the congressional
committee into the affairs of the al
legged money trust had tendency to
dampen the ardor of the bulls, es-
pecially as it bore directly upon recent
spectacular market movement. But the
sudden decision of this committee TO
adjourn all further proceedings until
after the election was received with
satisfaction.
Adverse crop conditions were neu-
tralized by the steady Improvement
shown in the iron and steel industry,
while demand for copper at the new
high prices continued in fair volume.
Changers and other important railroads
were somewhat affected by the agricul-
tural outlook, st. Paul declining to it's
lowest quotation in five years.
Money remains easy here and at the
leading reserve centers, with no indica-
lions of anything more than mild
furry over the mid-year period. The
foreign financial situation is not alto
gether satisfactory, especially in Ber-
lin, that center continuing to draw on
continental markets and our own to
meet its huge July requirements.

START MONEY LAUNDRY
Will Wash, Iron and
Starch Soiled Bills.

Washington, June Is. - Laundered
paper money, clean and crisp as new
will soon be in circulation throughout
the United States. Secretary Mac
Veagh has installed a currency washing
machine in the treasury department
which is expected to save the govern
ment at least half million dollars
annually. 1t will be placed in opera
ton Monday.
The money washing machine was de-
vised after months of study and expert
ment by the bureau of engraving and
printing, the mandatory of United
States currency Millions of notes
which previously would have been de-
stroyed will be washed, starcNed, and
ironed and returned to circulation. 1t
is estimated that at least sixty per
cent of the bills presented to the treas
ury for redemption can be so revived.
The machine, it is said, will wash $4,000
notes daily.

HE BUILT FIRST SELF
PROPELLED ROAD VEHICLE
Mr.. j. B. Bartholomew First Effort
Was Traction Engine, His Great
est Triumph Is the Glide Automo-
bile.

That important events are quickly
merged into the swift whirl of pro-
gress of our country is demonstrated
in the matter of fact way with which
people accept the self propelled vehicle
as if they had always had this con-
venience, yet the man who construct
ed the first self propelled road vehicle,
a traction engine, is one of the active
business men of Peoria, I'LL. Mr.. ]. B.
Bartholomew, president of the Glide
Automobile company at Peoria.
Some difference between the crude
Iron Horse of those days and the
new model "Glide" of today. The
traction engine was the beginning of
horseless vehicles. The Glide Auto
mobile is the climax of more than
twenty years of patient study and ex-
penditure of money.
The traction engine would go two
to three. miles per hour, the Glide
runs four miles per hour or sixty if
you WISH The Glide will climb any
hill ever climbed by any automobile
on earth, no matter what it costs or
how great it's power. The Glide is
equipped with the celebrated Con
tinental long stroke motor" with en-
closed valves, Brown-Lipe transmits
ion, Timk1en roller and annular ball
bearings, multiple dry disc clutch.
Every moving part is enclosed in oil
and dust proof castings. The car is
one of the most beautiful and is built
to last. ~
The Shawnee Motor Car Company
received their first car load of Glide
automobiles a few days ago and have
taken orders for three and each one
taken upon first demonstration. The
Shawnee Motor Car Co., are placing
agencies throughout the state as fast
as they can be reached.

CAN'T BRIDE WOMEN.
Ohio Jurist Advances Another Reason

ROAD ACROSS STATE.
Golden Belt Road Association to
Mark Motor Trail to Denver.

A motor tourist trail from Kansas
City across Kansas to Denver-and
the route plainly marked with guide
posts all the way-is what the Golden
Belt Road association determined on
at its recent meeting in Abilene.
Blue and yellow enameled signs
will be placed at points where the
touring autoist or cyclist is apt to be
confused by turns or crossroads. The
signs will be placed six feet above
ground on iron posts set in concrete.
and it will be a near sighted tourist
indeed who will miss these beacons of
blue and yellow.
AS the road will cross this county,
the Shawnee County Motor league is
called upon to share in the expense
of installation of the guide posts.
Frank Southwick, secretary of the
league, has been busy sending out let
tiers to members advising them to
come across with a dollar each to
help get the thing started. Motor
cyclists are asked to remit fifty cents.
1t is hoped that responses, with
enclosure will be prompt and nu-
merous, as the system is much need
ed and, will be a benefit to all towns
along the route.

AN END TO PAIN.
Physician Discovers a New and I'M
portant Anaesthetic.

London, June 15.-The elimination of
pain resulting from an injury sur
gical operation is claimed for the dis
covery of a, new anesthestic announced
by DR.. Forbes Ross through the Lancet.
He says:

deserving Topeka industries will soon
be submitted to the Topeka bankers
for their approval. When the stamp
of approval has been administered by
the men of money, the Commercial
club will arrange for a big enthu-
siasm dinner to launch the campaign
to procure the necessary funds.
Two hundred thousand dollars was
the sum named originally by the COM
mittee as the amount required for the
purpose in hand, but it is probable
that no attempt will be made to raise
this large fund in its entirety at the
start.
II am very optimistic over the pros
poets of the plan working out success
fully" said Secretary ]. Will Kelley.
II believe that in four or five years
Topeka will be much more of an in
dustrial center than at the present
time.
Factories Cause Prosperity.
Thriving factories make a city
prosperous. This is shown by the
amount of money on deposit in the
banks of the factory cities.
Here are some interesting figures:
Waterloo, Ia, with a population of
$1,000 has s16,O00,000 on deposit in
her banks; Sioux City, Iowa, with a
population of $4,000, has bank de-
posts of $4,000, 900; Cedar Rapids,
Davenport, Iowa, the size of Topeka,
$25,000,O00; Quincy, ILL.,. with popu-
Iation of $1,000 has $4,000 To-
peka has about 100000 in her
banks.
Money comes from all parts of
the world to a factory city. While we
have made a good start in an indus
trial way in Topeka, still the people
of this city are largely dependent up
on one another. The money makes
the rounds. If we had more factories
money would come in more rapidly
from outside sources, and the bank
deposits would be increased
