GEORGE R. SMITH
Views Of Candidate for Congress on
River Navigation.

In his campaign for congress, Judge
George R. Smith is laying great deal
Of stress upon the Importance of maxi
ing the Mississippi river navigable
from the gulf to the city of Minne-
apolis.
With the completion of the Panama
canal the Mississippi becomes one OF
the worlds most important arteries
of trade. The completion of the
canal opens to the Mississippi valley
a new field of opportunity.
New Orleans at the mouth of the
Mississippi will soon be actually
nearer the markets of western Amer
lea and Asia than either New York or
London, Minneapolis has direct water
connection with New Orleans and in
order to make the most of this natural
| advantage the river should be made
navigable to this city.
There may be those who do not be-
lieve that this can be done, but there
were those who doubted the possibility
of opening the canal, and it was not
until the government actually set to
work on that gigantic undertaking
that success was attained. The sue
cess of that enterprise was due to the
skill and perseverance of our army
engineers.
| West Point produces the best en-
gineers in the world. They are capable
of undertaking the opening of naviga-
ton of the Mississippi to it's natura
head, and the equipment now used ii
building the Panama canal can be
used to good advantage in prosecut.
ing this enterprise.
The work which has already beer
done in the construction of the higl
dam below this city should, he be.
lieves, be supplemented by such ad.
ditional work and dredging as will in.

| pense of all of which should be born,
by the national government.

BROADER Do Lvnch,

At the venerable age of So years
died in 1S41-Isadore De Lynch, a vet
eran soldier of the famous Irish Bril-
gade, in the service of France. He
had fought at the head of the gallant
Irish soldiers, not only on various
i European fields and in far off India,
but he was also an efficient and timely
ally of the American patriots in the
Revolution, and fairly amazed the
French commander, Count d'Estaing,
by his daring and utter contempt for
personal danger.
Like Lafayette, Pulaski and others
who went to the aid of the cause of
American liberty, he was a, volunteer
in the cause. and, to show his devotion
to his convictions, offered his sword
to the service of human liberty and
opposition to British tyranny. During
the war of. 1910, in India, he was taken
to that country by one of his uncles,
who commanded a regiment of the
Irish Brigade, and after serving in
the campaign of 1910 and 1771 he re-
turned to France.
| He then volunteered to aid the AM
erican Colonists, and served first un-
der the orders of Count d'Sstaing. At
the most critical moment Of the siege
! of Savannah, Georgia, d'Estaing, who
was at the head of the right of one
column, commanded Lynch to carry
an urgent order to the third column on
the left. These columns were within
grapeshot range of the opposing en-
trenchments, and tremendous fire
was kept up on both sides.
Instead of passing to the rear or
through the center Lynch rode through
) the front. In vain d'Estaing and those
around him urged him to take a DIFF
ferent direction. He went on, executed
his order, and returned the same way.
Being asked by dEstaing why he took
the path in which he was most certain

which may at the same time have had
their food values distracted to such an
extent that she is literally feeding her
household on husks. There once fell un-
der the writer's observation a would be-
thrifty hospital steward who fed the
nursing staff Of the hospital on chickens
which had previously been boiled to pre-
paro the requisite number OF gallons OF
chicken broth for the patients. Such
thrift, by reducing the effectiveness OF
the working corps. defeated its own ends.

WOMEN WIN CALIFORNIA
Whole State Comedies Value OF
Equal Suffrage.
EAGER TO USE THE BALLOT
Leader Says Percentage OF
Female Registration Was
Never Equalled by Men.


Washington, Sept. 1.-Cslifornia suf-
fragists are playing an important part
in tho politics OF the state, according to
Clifford Howard. OF Los Angeles, editor
of The Woman's Bulletin" who is visit
ing in Washington.
On his way to this city he spent a
week in Ohio at the invitation OF the
Woman Suffrage Association of that
state, making addresses in various cities
invited to speak in Kansas, Wisconsin
and Arizona, where suffrage campaigns
are under way. He will address mass
meeting on woman suffrage in Wash
ington on September Is.
Discussing tho results Of women's
suffrage In California, Mr.. Howard said
SO we'll has woman suffrage worked In
practice that it would be difficult mat,
ter to-day to find real anti-suffragis'
anywhere In California. There were
tens OF thousands Of them before. the
election last october, but the actual re-
suits Of the new political order have DIS
proved all the opposition arguments, &c
that every one Is obliged now to concede
the value and righteousness OF equal
suffrage
The contention that women Will not
vote IL given the ballot was answered IN
Los Angeles within two months after the
October election. During that time 80
per cent Of all the women in Los An.
geles registered and at the municipal
election IN December 90 per cent OF them
came out and voted-a record never
edualled by the men.
Already the refining influence Of the
woman In politics has manifested itself
in the changed character OF the pollns
places. Men are no longer willing "a
tolerate quarters that are unfit FOR their
mothers and wives and daughters. Al
May we used forty-three schoolhouses
and eight churches and a large number
OF fonts. and every other place chosen
was selected with n view 10 It's fitness
for women.
While. OF course. majority OF the
women Of California are Progresstves
there are. nevertheless large numbers
fornia Wcmen's Democratic League has
many thousand members. There are
probably one hundred Thousand women
Democrats in the state. There also
are numerous women's Taft leagues
throughout the state, and the Socialist
party and the Prohibition party have
thousands OF women enrolled under theii
banners.
All this" says Mr.. Howard. goes TO
demonstrate that the women have their
individual political tastes and opinions
as well as the men. and that they will
not combine as class and work havoc
with the business affairs Of the state ano
nation. as many OF the 'antis seem 10
fear"

LAW HAMPERS SUfFRAGISTS
Technically May Prevent Ref.
erendum in Illinois.
TBy Tclegraph TO The rribun.

Chicago, Sept. An obscure tschnt-
cslity in tho public policy act may rob the
Illinois surfrasists Of the opportunity OF
putting the question OF votes for women
before the electors this fall by means OF
the referendum. The obstacle lies In the
form of the petition in the circulation Of
which many Chicago women have been
strenuously at work for months
II appears that the proposition cannot
be submitted to the voters because the
petitioners obtained one signature TO two
questions, instead OF having each signed
separately. The technicality. however,
has not deferred the women from obtain
ing signatures. They need 10000 20 get
the petition before the voters and tonight
they had about 5000.
In all the churches to-day the women
had workers gathering signatures. Sew
eral thousand were obtained. and there
were workers at the different parks and
other places. The time for taking names
will expire Tuesday at noon.
Tomorrow committees viii visit every
picnic In and about Chicago. and the sew
eral Labor Day gatherings are expected
TO swell the number OF signcrs.
