WESTERN IDEAS

ties Of Woman's Suffrage

Toxic, Dee, 27.-The constant dis
cussion In Japanese newspapers and
magazines of the questions of women's
rights and woman suffrage serves as a
striking example of the rapidity with
which western thought and western
ideas are being assimilated in Japan.
Today the supporters Of the women's
rights movement are gleeful over the
fact that two women millionaires OF
Toxic have won the right To vote AT
municipal and ward elections. The
municipal regulations grant the right
of suffrage To any subject of the Jap
anese empire paying II larger amount
OF direct city taxes than that paid
by any of the three highest ax-paying
male subjects over twenty-five years
or age. The woman suffrage advo-
Gates contended that this clause per-
mits women To vote if their property

home office upheld the contention.
An Important monthly magazine has
placed set of questions before noted
Japanese women on the future of the
sex i'm Japan, propounding such quer-
les as what can be done To improve
the conditions of the Japanese women;
requesting opinions as TO the suffrage
movement in the west as well as the
question of social independence, and
in general way the growing tendency
of woman To demand the same rights

\ summary of the replies indicates
an opinion that Japan is not yet ripe

1t has been reported that Gen. villa

wild with excitement. They must go

well, for they never saw it.
The battlefield was deserted, save
for a dozen dead horses and a guam

justly discriminating against other

The decision shows that as matter
of fact the railroads have for many
years treated these charges as switch
ing charges and as between railroads
they are now so regarded. hence they
are not in position to raise that issue.
Their claim that the Iowa distance tar

the Iowa distance tariff is maximum

both the railroads and the commission

Des Moines, Nov. 26.-The indus
trial vicinity for Fort Dodge includes
the area over TO the gypsum industry
extending four and half miles TO the
southeast and hereafter the railroads
doing business for the five big gypsum
companies must grant to all of them
alike switching charge. So the Iowa
railroad commission has decided
The Cardiff company won its point
before the commission. All the busi-
ness Of all the gypsum companies goes
into Fort Dodge through the station
Gypsum" Until the first Of Feb
ruary last the Cardiff company was
on an equality with it's competitors
as to rates, but new rule was adopted
and the Cardiff was made the only
company unab BILE to market it's product

plant is a little farther out than the
others The others get a switching
rate Of S.. The Cardiff has to pay for
a carload sent into Fort Dodge s19, go
If over one road and SO If over two
roads.
Under the order Just issued the rate
to the Cardiff is reduced to a fiat s.
minimum or cent per hunderd pounds.
The case was a good deal more than
merely one involving Fort Dodge

YES the whole question of what const!-

The railroads insisted that 1t is i'm
possible that a haul between two bill
ing stations, or passing through one
billing station to another shall be con-
sidered a switching charge, and that
an industrial vicinity must not in
clude more than one station. The
commission had never decided these
questions before. The commission now
decided, in effect, that the contentious
OF the railroads are wrong and that
