SUFFRAGE IN IOWA.
IWaterloo Times TriDure.l

-" i
The members Of the Iowa assembly
who desire to put off the woman $
suffrage question for several years
more have adop,ed the phrase: Let
the women decide whether or not they
want the ballot If delay in subnis-
sion is what they want, maybe they
can win. but if they do not THINK
really. that a woman wants the ballot,
they have but to canvass the returns
Of the referendum held at Grinnell. 1t
Seems about every woman In the httie
CITY wants the privileges of the bal
lot.
And that's the way ii will be in the
state when the women get a chance
10 vote on whether they want the bal
lot or not. 1t is not SO sure that the
majority of the women OF Iowa prefer
the ballot to present conditions, but IL
is certain that if the question OF
whether or not the women OF the state
want the ballot is submitted to tnen'
and they are privileged to take rel
erendum vote, the majority Will be SO
overwhelming that it will look much
like no opposition exists. Ii a ma
jority of the women OF legai age Ia
the state We're required to cast their
ballots in favor of suffrage, that would
be an entirely different matter me
chances would be against approval.
But the basis. Of course. would De a
majority of those voting.
The suffrage movement Is popular
among women. with some 1t is seri-
Gus matter, with others 1t Is something
in the nature of a fad. Some would get
extremely busy and be very serious
during the campaign and the vote;
while others would consider the AFFAIR
great fun" But. at all events, we
may. be sure, some Of the gentler sex
would be extremely busy on voting day.
The telephones would be put to use.
the speed limit would be abused-oh.
what a day we would have in Iowa!

that little, worried looking man goes

been awful fast in his young days.
The folks who do know his history also

Twin. Opposite In Character.

When the characters OF twins are
not exactly the same they are exactly
the opposite of one another. One Will
be quick, self-conhdent and quick-tem-
pered, but quick to forgive; the other
is slow, shy and good-tempered, but
slow to forgive when aroused.

Successful Root and Herb Remedy.

The study of roots and herbs, their
character and power over disease, was
what led Lydia f. Pinkham of Lynn.

most successful remedy the world has

her reward some years ago, her work
among suffering women is ss!m carried

Auxiliary Plant.

President Temple, of the Alas ka Water, Light X Telephone Co.,, has announced that the company have ordered machinery for the purpose of making an auxiliary electric plant in Valdez, which will be driven by steam. It is the purpose of the company to be so prepared that they can operate at any time and in spite of a break down across the bay will be en- abled in a few hours to have steam up and the generator go- ing. The generator now used in the power house will be brought to Valdez after the big machine for the upper power house is in- stalled.

Senator Works.

Senator Works, he ups and jerks a brand new kind of caper; not tales of crime, in prose or rhyme, he'd have in any paper. The daily sheet won't dare repeat yarn of scrap or riot, but 1t may print a timely hint of mor- al things and quiet. It dare not spring a grisly thing, though greatly it may need it; that sheet might prove a helpful move--but who, o Works, would read it Of Epworth rules and Sunday schools it might print all the Iidings; of picnic jaunts in woodland haunts afar from railway Sidings. And if some duck should run amuck and kill a gross of people, the sheet must tell about the bell bought for the village Steeple. The sheet must skip the sporting tip, all news of Luth McCarty, and print a ream about the cream served at Jimpson's party. This scheme of Works sure beats the Turks--may guardian angels speed it. on, such a sheet would be too sweet but who in Troy would read it? Senator Works should hire some clerks, engage a legislature, to toll for years like brindled steers reforming human nature. Then tales of crime, perhaps, in time, no more will be demanded; and sheets that print in crimson tint crime stories will be stranded.
