Talks With Men of
National Prominence
At Washington. d. q

Canada is not, and probably will not
be, seriously agitated by the woman
suffrage movement. which English
in the dominion in the neal future,
according to Franklin Fombeaux Of
st. John. n. 3. Mr.. Rombeaux de-
clares that the women of Canada do
not look with a kindly interest on the
proposition to give them a voice In the
government. and he ventures the opin-
ion that not three per cent Of the Ca
madam fair sex would be found In ia
Vor of suffrage II they were given a
chance to vote on the proposition. As
to the men he believes they are gen.
orally opposed to the idea, this being
particularly true among the French
Canadians.
Canada will not get excited about
the woman suffrage campaign when
the English ladies begin the spread Of
their propaganda in the dominion" he
said. There are many reasons why
this is so. In the first place. the wo-
mon Of Canada do not want the bal
lot. They do not want to take Il part
in the political campaigns which, like
the last one between the conservatives
n the liberals, arouse the passions
n stir the people to the bitterest
feeling. seriously doubt II three per
cent Of all the women Of Canada
would vote In favor Of suffrage II they
were given a chance today to express
their opinion through the ballot.
AS for the men. the majority of
them are greatly opposed to the prop
osition. OF course it is probable that
some converts will be made to the
cause. but these converts, l venture.
Will not be among the French Cana
dians. The French Canadians r a
sturdy class of men. who work hard,
Among the French Canadians In the
great lumber camps of the country
such a thing az woman suffrage would
be treated with contempt. 1t is not
that the French Canadians are not
progressive. but they are an old peo-
pie with customs and traditions ante
dating the revolutionary war in Amer
by many years. TO get them to
listen to such a radical change would
be to ask them to give up cherished
customs and traditions, and l feel
that they will never do So"

Predicts Guatcmalan Revolution Soon.

Guatemala is soon to have another
revolution and probably another pres
ident, according to predictions made
yesterday by Russell Millword, u
young engineer. who has been survey
ing a route for a railroad from the
gulf coast to the Pacific ocean,. Mr..
Millword also believes that the new
business interests which are greatly
about getting out large sup
plies Of the mahogany wood which is
found in that country.
Conditions are beginning to seeth
in Guatemala again, and the time has
come for another revolution and
other president" said he. I'm fact, I
would not be surprised to see a revo-
luton break out there within the next
three weeks. AZ the people are restless
and are looking for trouble.
"1n this Connection it may be Of in
terest to note that never In the history
Of Guatemala has a president served
out his entire term. Some have serv-

serve the complete term for which he
was chosen. The people Of that

classes anything proposed for more
advanced countries. When a party
doesn't like the policies pursued by
the party in power. a revolution is
started.
THE people of that country are pri-
marily soldiers of fortune. they like
excitement: in fact, they live on ex-
element. If they did not have a revo-
luton every now and then and select
a new president, none of those on the
outside would ever have a chance to

terpieces of Germany, France, Italy
and Austria, which have given an en-
during fame to the composers Of the
past.
The people Of the United States, as
they have developed industrially. have
had little time to study the arts, and
particularly the art of music" he said.
There is a drift of sentiment now to-
ward the better grades of music. and
I look for a time in this country when
the demand will be for more classical
music and less Of the popular variety.
Paradoxical as 1t may sound, l be
lieve that the time Is coming when the
classical music will be the popular
music.
"Cities all over this country are
having their annual musical festivals,
where only the classics are heard.
There is a great demand for tickets at
these festivals. While on a recent
tour. l played before a crowd of news
boys in their clubrooms. I started to
play ragtime and some Of the popu-
lar airs, much to my surprise. those
urchins of the street demanded m
thing classical. The newsboy catches
the spirit of the times as quickly as
any one. He has caught the spirit of
the times in the world of music.
Composers will arise to meet the
new demand, and another generation
may see great American composers
whose works will take rank with
Chopin, Shubert. Mendelssohn. Greig.
Verdi, and the other great masters of
the past. In fact, I believe that we
are now almost entering the golden
age of music in this country"

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES
Edited by the August an Literary soclety!

Edited by the Augustan Literary Society!
Duck hunting seems to be
quite popular with some of the
High School boys.
The most of the books that
we're lacking at the first of the
year are now on the shelves. We
now have an excellent working
library of nearly 200 volumes.
1t is expected that the High
School will have football game
with Dodge City soon. We have
not learned just when. The
boys are working right along and
expect to have a winning team.
The school board have decided
to put a smooth wire fence
around the school yard. Most
OF the posts have been set IN
front of the school house.
The Augustan literary society
has been re-organized and the
following officers elected for the
first semester: Pres, Kay
Dalgarn; Vice Pres, Ida Camp
bell; Sec, Orin Thompson;
Treas, Beulah Marshall; Ser
geant at Arms, Robert Wilson.
Of the new high school stud
ents, sixteen have been elected
to the Augustan literary society.
The Senior class organized
Friday after school and the fol-
lowing officers were elected:
Pres, Charlie Fee; Vice Pres ,
Helen Bochler; See. Orin Thomp-
son; Treas. John Hantlay.

Lyceum Course

The high school students have
undertaken a Lecture Course OF
SIX numbers for the coming year,
They are now buisly' at work
securing pledges for season
tickets to cover the eXpence OF
the course. Over half the nee.
essary number has now been
secured. If you ilavc not secur-
ed a season ticket, you should
do so at once by giving your
name to one of the high school
students. The price of the tick
ct is $500. Single admissions
will be so cents.
The entertainments will be
given in the high school assembly
room that will be especially fitted
with seats for such occasions.
The six mum bers are all strong
ones and especially suited for a
high school course. The Amph-
Ian Male Quartette, The Car.
toonist, Caveny, the Austrian
Orchestra and Col. Geo. w. Balm
are among the best lyceum num-
bers that are obtainable. The
scientific lecture by Prof. Will
liams, who carries over $4,000
worth of electrical apparatus,
while technical, is instructive
and popular. Mccormick and
his dog, Bronte, are as interest
ing and popular, as unique. We
believe that the course is we'll
worth the attention and support
of Meade people. If you agree
with us, do not fail to give your
name at once to any high school
student or phone to the school
house.

greatly to be desired.
