Discussion of practical ways in which

for the good of their states and the nation
was the feature today of the conference
Of the National Council of Women Voters
at the Shoreham 1t was proposed that
efforts be made to educate all women

All of the delegates to the conference
took part this morning in DISCUSSING
minimum wage laws, the Iowa injunc-
form legislation. which they think Is
needed in the various states. No decl-
sions were reached on any questions, the
discussions being informal.
Incidentally, the need of a new ~.
venile Court building in the DISTRICT
was mentioned by Miss Todd to snow
the kind of things gained by women
when they vote. Several prominent
members of the council already have
declared that the present juvenile
Court building here is disgrace no
action was taken on the question be-
cause of the feeling of the delegates
that they should not go actively INTO
such questions at present.
..From our two years of citizenship
California women have learned that
the vote is but a tool in their hands.
said Miss Todd. 1.-The work OF the
states where women have the vote has
Just begun. Legislation and admins :
tration will take care of itself IL you
have an intelligent public. The task
before the voting states is one OF edu-
cation.

CARNEGIE CATCHES
SALMON IN SCOTLAND

London, England, Oct 1S.-The laird
| OF Skibo is in doubt just now whether
! salmon fishing or golf is the greater
sport He has been having wonder
full sport on his Highland estate with
the salmon, and the Scotch salmon is
about as game a fish as swims. Not
only has Mr. Carnegie hooked and
landed the largest salmon of the sea-
son, 3O-pOunder, as has been told,
but he has caught many smaller fish.
One day he landed 10 beauties rang
ing in weight from eight to 20 pounds
and he enjoyed the sport hugely.
He said with laugh: Il think when
l return to America I'll have to chal-
lenge my friend, Rockefeller, to a fish
ing contest. He may be able to beat
me at golf, though I doubt it, but I
am very sure that I can beat him with
the rod. Fishing is a great sport. I
can recall now the pleasure 1 found
catching minnoWS with bent pin when
l was a boy, although until recently 1
had done little with the rod since
then
Highlands Benefit Daughter.
Mr.. Carnegie is very much pleased
with the effect the bracing air of the
highlands has had on the health of
his little daughter, Margaret, whom
the famous irOnmaster fairly worships.
She has been rather a delicate child,
but when 1 saw her last she was a
fine, rosy checked, healthy looking las
sic, as merry and full as life as should
be expected of a highland maiden. Mr..
MI. Carnegie himself as as strong and
rugged as the average man of two
thirds his years.
New Plan for World Peace.
The fact that he has been in con-
sultation recently with the heads of
the house of Rothschild and other lead
ers of the haute finance, has given
rise to rumor that he has come to
the conclusion that he must have the
active cooperation of the men who real
" control the armies of Europe if he
is to advance his peace propaganda
beyond the academic stage and is seek
ing TO bring about an understanding |
between them that no money will be |
advanced in the future for war pur-

600 more barrels, which was to be
delivered as required. The first
shipment will begin arriving in Pres

when it will be utilized on the

Another interesting matter linked
to this great tonnage is that 1t VIII

weight of 100000 pounds to the car.

Of FAIR
SPREAD BY
BOOSTERS
TRIP TO CLARKDALE AND
JEROME ON SUNDAY
WAS A SUCCESS IN
EVERY PARTICULAR
(From Tuesdays Daily.)


The booster button marked the
trail of the Northern Arizona fair
boomers through Jerome and Clark
dale on Sunday,
Four cars carrying Is enthusiastic
Prescottonians, an ample supply OF
Boost for the Fair" buttons and
a big package of advertising dodgers,
together with ample provisions for
a long voyage through very dry
stretch of country, made up the out
fit. The cars and their occupants
were as follows:
Al Weber with Ed Stevens, !
John Lindell and R. n Fredericks.
c. T. Joslin with J. Joslin, ST.,
George c. Miller, James Hope and
Paul Deming.
Mayor w. H. Timerhoff with Fl.
A. Cheverton, 1. c. Derrick and
J. Dustin.
Sidney Birch with H. c. Storey,
William Byers, Charles Scholey and
B. Anderson.
The roads were in perfect con-
dition and the run TO Jerome was
made in record time. The boomers
were warmly welcomed. Glad hands
were extended At every turn and
red buttons lit up the Jerome coat
lapels like wild flowers after the
first summer showers.
No one had to be asked twice
10 pin on the Prescott buttons.
Everybody come a-runnin and the
voyagers had the JOY OF finding
their hosts delighted at being invited
10 participate in the big fair that IS
TO begin October y. Jerome GER
tainly knows all about it now.
While there was no torch light
procession, as it was too early in
the day for that, there was an in
teresting condition of illumination
that was continued to Clarkdale.
The arrival of the auto-voyagers
was again anticipated. The business
men of the town were waiting to
welcome them and extend their
manly chests for the booster but
tons
In both places there was 4 great
interest in the enterprise which
promises so much for Northern Ari-
IONA There were many questions
as to the program and it was
learned that numerous youngsters OF
both sexes were being carefully
groomed with an eye to abstracting
the Armour silver cups from the
baby show while more than one
proud mother was figuring how well
the Southworth gold medal would
look on her baby.
The baseball feature, it was ascer-
tanned. was also causing much talk
The tournament will nuquestionably
result in some very lively expires
sions of confidence before the fail
is over
Prescott's success in handling thu
crowds during the Frontier day cele
bration last July made the jerome
and Clarkdale contingent feel con
fdent that they could plan on at
tending the fair and be sure Of re
ceiving adequate accommodations 4
reasonable prices This fact is in
ducing many to decide on Prescott
for their outing who would not b

town where there was no limit L
