Term Of the Supreme Court
Their timely decision IS that unless a
landlord gives tenant sufficient steam
TO keep his apartment warm the tenant
NAV legally terminate the lease with the
property owner move out and not stand
liable for the payment of rent for the
rest Of the term Of the lease.
The case that brought forth this de-

was that Of Mrs. Mary A. Ollwerter TO
recover from a former tenant sl59 rent
for March and April, 1912. and $50 due as
Fart of the February rent.
Mrs. Ollwcrter won her suit in the Mu-

the Appellate Term. There the tenant
told a heartrending story about freezing

when the lease stipulated the landlord
should keep it heated.

eft was the duty of the landlord TO
maintain proper heating and hot water

properly be drawn from the evidence Is
that the steam heating apparatus or plant
was utterly inadequate, Notwithstanding
constant effort at repairs, to supply the
heat which the landlord had covenanted
to furnish.
"He cannot avoid the obligation as
sumed by him under the lease by proving
tba. the apparatus was worthless and

SUFFRAGISTS EXTOL POLICE
Parade Handled Beautifully,
They Tell Waldo.

Laymen enjoyed the pumpkin lanterns
but suffragists enjoyed the police 1t was
almost too good to be true, the attitude
Of the finest at Saturdays parade, and 1t
was the chief topic of conversation at
suffrage tea tables yesterday. Then r. c.
Beadle, that energetic young man who
is secretary of the Mems League and
never does things by halves, decided that
it was not enough to praise the police be-
hind their backs. They should be thanked
to their faces So he wrote a letter to
Commissioner Waldo, which read as fol-
lows:
Ny Dear Sir: May ! express to you ana
through YOU 10 the officers and men OF
the department our appreciation OF the
splendid police arrangements Tor the pa
rade on Saturday night? Your handling
of this situation left nothing TO be de-
sired The men along the line were not
only efficient i'm the discharge OF the!r
duties but were courteous and COnslh-
crate at all times, especially the SQUAD OF
mounted men that followed the parade
and prevented any confusion ana Gls-
order after the column had passed.

GIRLS WILL TALK BACK
Suffrage Orators To Be Trained
to Answer Questions.

Chicago, Nov. IA school OF oratorv
for women to meet the growing demand
for speakers in suffrage campaigns was
opened here tonight under the direction
Of Miss Edna Phelps.
I'VE have lots OF girls with good ideas
who can't get on a platform and make a
speech in public" said Miss Phelps, be
cause their knees get shaky. We are going
to practice for while, and then have
men come In and interrupt the orators
with foolish questions. We wish to be
ready with quick responses that will turn
the laugh on the disturber."
1t was announced that the fight is to be
kept going until the remaining thirty
eight states are converted to woman suf-
frage.

As a spectacle the suffrage parade was
thrilling. So. make no doubt was the
burning of Rome. Wonder if the modern
Neros in petticoats realized that they
were burning up not a capital but
civilization. Since both were man-made,
they perhaps feel that both deserve de-
struction. There ! venture to disagree
with them. There / venture, further, TO
think the mass of womankind are on my
side.
Hence the first and feeblest count In
my indictment of woman suffrage. 1t Is
undemocratic, in that IT seeks to impose
upon the majority the will Of the minor
ity. Women who. loathe the thought Of
voting may have IT laid upon them as a
burden-be forced to go to the polls TO
save themselves from spoliation or unit
rule. Next, it seems to me the teachings
of experience are all set at naught in
the contention that the ballot in feminine
hands will right all manner OF wrongs.
Men, voting this many year, have some
how not managed TO vote themselves into
paradise Coptrariwise, good few Of
them still have to work, and work hard,
and since II IS well known that Mrs. Poy-
ser voiced immortal truth I'm saying Of
women: God Almighty made 'em TO
match the men" how are, they going to
do better than men?
Those things, however, lie on the sur
face. The heart of my opposition to suf-
frage is a.conviction that IT will tend, II
It ever prevails, to make life infinitely
harder, infinitely poorer for men and
women alike. If Sidney Smiths IA

No Good Turkeys
in Market Now

Rat It's the beef barons that fix the price
Of meat and fowls and butter and eggs
Wilson may limit the trusts. but the beef
barons are a hard proposition; nine num-
dred millions of dollars they've got, AND
could get five hundred millions more IL
they wanted It. / wish they were away
said Mr.. Asher, as he weighed out
roasting chicken for the Democratic
housewife and charged her 20 cents
pound. II made more money in the days
when could a. sold you this for 10 or IL
cents. Yes, / remember when / bought
turkeys for cents and sold them for r.
and made more money"
Mrs Heath won't give any credit to
President-elect Wilson for the lower price
OF turkeys this year, as compared with
last year. She thinks the thanks are due
to her Housewives League campaign OF
education
Women don't go to market ignorantly
now" she said last night. They are
educated up to the market value or
things. IL a dealer charges them too
much for thing they won't pay 1t. I'm
sending out reports to all my housewives
on the correct price Of turkeys, what they
were last year this time, and what they
ought to be now. We're going to have
plenty of turkeys nice and cheap, for
Thanksgiving this season, but II won't be
because the Democratic party is In. No;
1t will be because dealers aren't trying
to fool us so much now; they have
learned that they can't.
"Of course, If this warm weather keeps
up, our turkey hopes ill be rather
blasted. otherwise I'm sure there will be
a good supply, and a couple of days be-
fore Thanksgiving they will be almost
sure to drop in price"
So don't be afraid to send those
Thanksgiving invitations to Aunt Susie
and Cousin Jim, housewives. The
weather man can't be cruel enough to re-
fuse us cold weather for Thanksgiving
and you have the word Of the president
Of the Housewives League and one Of the
Oldest dealers In Washington Market
that that is all that is needed 10 make
turkeys cheap.

But a Cold Snap Will Make
Them Plenty and Cheap
for Thanksgiving.

Cheer up. housewives! IL is not true
that turkeys are going to be scarce and
high for Thanksgiving this year. Don't
you be fooled by that story, which some
Of the dealers are spreading. It's the
same old story that is taken out of cold
storage every year and handed over 10
the public. 1t is less true this year than
IL was last, for turkeys are four cents
less a pound to-day than they were this
time In 1911. and Mrs. Julian Heath,
president of the Housewives League,
says there is every probability that, as
they took drop just before Thanksgiv-
ing, so they will now.

But mine are goot turkeys-ferry goot

George Asher who has sold featherless
bipeds in the old market more years than
most of us remember, laughed when this
remark was repeated to him.
There are no good turkeys at this
time" he said The weather is too
warm. There will be plenty of good tur-
keys by Thanksgiving time II the weather
turns cold. Most of our turkeys are
shipped from the West, and though re-
frigerator cars are used, warm weather
affects them materially. There will be
plenty of turkeys, because there is plenty

WHY WOMEN SHOULD NOT VOTE.

First: Womans glorious mission is TO
rock the cradle. The foot that rocks the
cradle rocks the world" II woman had
the suffrage she would perforce be obliged
to remove her foot from said cradle for at
least twenty minutes three or four times
a year The world would then cease to
rock and where would We all be at, I'd
like to know?
Second: Woman is represented I'm poll
tics by her lawful lord and husband II
she has none such she should be compelled
to provide herself with one, unless she be
poor or homely, in which case she has no
rights and does not deserve nor require
representation.
Third: There are women who do not
want the suffrage and would not use it
il they had it, therefore. it should not be
given to those who do want It.
Fourth: II woman went into politics she
would be brought into contact with men.
1t is necessary for men to smoke, drink,
swear and spit. Woman's presence might
embarrass the trainers of our laws and
government in the discharge OF these
duties; therefore. for PHYS sake, keep
her away.
Fifth: II woman mixed with men in the
political scramble what about her sweet.
feminine purity and grace? She would
soon be no better than men. Heaven for
bid
Sixth Some women would undoubtedly
sell their votes for a new hat or a box OF
candy. II costs only drink or cigar
TO buy a mans vote, which is more eco
nomical TO the state.
Seventh: Women know nothing about
political affairs. Why, II women had the
chance they would want to do regular
spring housekeeping job for the whole
country. 1t wouldn't seem like home here
any more.-Mabel c. De VOna, IN Nau-
titus
