speaking on the social and economic
results of the extension of the ballot
He said the suffrage franchise should
be granted to all because women are
a part Of democracy and not because
of any waves Of reform. 1t would not
help temperance and other things. 1t
is wrong to say women are the equal
of men as 1t Is to say men are the
equal of men. No two persons are
equal. Democracy is founded on the
principle that all must have the right
to vote. Suffrage Is a privilege, but
must not be means of reform.

Des Moines, Oct. 4-The process Of
gradual getting away from the prison
contract labor plan and into tho work
for state account at the Iowa penal
institutions will probably receive much
impetus in the next year. SO that the
Thirty-sixth general assembly will BE
forced to take action that will enable
the board of control to adopt the best
modern system. The last general as
sembly made q strt somewhat In adj
vance Of any other by providing that
out Of the proceeds Of the millage tax
for the state institutions equipment for
industrial plants might be purchased,
but this will not be available until
next year, and possibly the courts will
decide that all millage taxes which
contemplate collection Of large sums
for state purposes are illegal.
No More Chair Contracts.
One thing is certain. tho contract at
Fort Madison for the making Of chairs
will not be renewed. On this contract
work the prisoners can not make any
extra pay" on overtime, while on the
tool contract the skilled prisoners make
q great deal Of extra money which
they are able to send to their families.
Mr.. Dixon. Of the board of control, was
told by one of the Fort Madison pris-
oners he was able to make about
dollar q day for himself on the over
time in the tool factory. The system
Of convicts getting pay for the over
time and the money being their own
to be used as they see fit has been in
operation q long time, and with the
willing workers is said to be very
satisfactory arrangement. 30 that the
prisoners in the Iowa penitentiary are
in this respect very much better on
than those in many other states.
Under the state account system all
the time Of the convicts Is used in
making goods for the state to be sent
to institutions or TO be sold.
The company which has the contract
work at Fort Madison has both the
chair contract and the tool contract. 1t
is possible tina: both contracts will be
abolished and the convicts will be left
in idleness until such time as the state
can provide work for them in some
other way.
The question will be disposed Of soon
after the new member il installed and
becomes familiar with what Is ahead
for the board. The desire Of the board
has been for years to have the whole
system ended, but the legislature has
never seen At to provide q way to do
It, and the contracts have been renewed
from time to time.

Mason City. Oct. 4.--Murder is the
charge lodged against Mrs. Ada Hol-
comb Burgess. after the coroners jury
had made pretty thorough examina-
ton into all the circumstances con-
nected with the case. Her confession
was that she poisoned her child but
was compelled to do so by threats on
her life made by Louis Chirikos. The
child mother, who Is now to appear on
this charge, Is only 10 years Of age.
while her husband. Almond B. Burgess,
is "a. He was veterinary surgeon at
Amboy. Mimi, where his people as well
as his wifes people resided. He also
was in the employ of the government
as a rural mail carrier. Burgess had
been married twice. He was infatuated
with Miss Holcomb and prior to their
marriage he brought her to Rockwell
and for some time she stayed with his
mother. In September. 1912, Burgeses
moved on a farm then tenanted by
Louis Chirikos. and worked the farm.
In short time he took Miss Holcomb
on the farm and they lived together as
man and wife. Finally they decided to
get married and on March 81 last the
wedding ceremony was performed. In
July following a child was born.
Finally confssses.
Il was Thursday afternoon about 5
o'clock, according to the story told by
the woman, that she gave tho babe
three morphine pills. and then she
states she took one. Her husband was
away from home at the time and he
arrived about $3.50, finding his wife
much excited. She told him the story
that man had appeared at the door
with q -four sack over his head with
holes cut for vision. and demanded that
she put some poison which he had
with him into Louis Chirikos' food, She
refused to do this when the man
grabbed the baby and said If she did
not he would make the baby swallow
it.
Officers at once took up the exam
nation and finally secured a full con-
fession. Her story now is that she
was compelled to give the drug to the
child because Louis Chirikos threat
ened to kilfs Unless she did. She
claims that Chir1koS was the father
Of tho child and sl1a was afraid If she
did not kill the little one that Chirikos
or some Of his Greek friends would kill
her.

wealth. He has two brothersssin the
