WANT GOOO ROADS

Pledged to work for the adop-
tion of complete and unified sys-
tenn Of national, state, county and
township highways. the Ohio Good
Roads Federation. has become amaR
gamated with the National High
ways Association.
AS result Of the action, which
waE taken at a meeting of the
Board of Trustees, at Columbus
July 28th, the Ohio organization
has become the Ohio Good Roads
Federation, Ohio Division of the
National Highways Association.
Hon. Jesse Taylor, jamestown,
President of the Ohio Federation,
is Vice-PreSident of the National
Highways Association and Director
Of its Organization Department.
Arch'd H Houston, Of Columbus,
Chairman of the Board of Trustees
of the state body, has been ap-
pointed member Of the Board of
National Councillors of the Assoc
iaticn. Another Of the Trustees,
HoE James R Marker, of Versailles,
State Highway Commissioner of
Ohio is a member of the Council of
Commissioners of the National
Highways Association. w A Ais
dorf, of Johnstown, Secretary of
the Federation becomes manager
Of the Northern Organization De-
partment of the Association.
The action of the Ohio Fedora
tion follows closely similar action
on the part of the National Old
Trails Road Association, an organi-
zation with 10000 members, the
headquarters Of which are in Kan
sas City. Missouri and of the Inter-
Mountain Good Roads Asso citation,
which has head quarters in Boise,
Idaho. These two bodies have
become departments of the Nation
al Highways Association. The
Texas Good Roads Federation has
also acted favorably on the propos-
al to amalgsmate.
The Ohio Federation has been
one Of the most successful Good
Roads organizations in the country,
and to its efforts is due much Of the
credit for the States recent activ-
ity in road building. 1t is believed
that in broadening its field by join
ing on the demand for a system of
highways built and maintained by
the nation, the Federation has
greatly increased it's usefulness.

From the above expressions, it is
evident that % Senators of all

From this large silent or nom
committal vote in the Senate, the
friends uf woman suffrage fear this
amendment will not pass during
the present Congress. Ia order to
to pass constitutional amendment
to be submitted to the states for
ratification, it is necessary to Sc
cure the favorable vote of two
thirds of both the Senate and
House. While it is by no means
certain or even probable that all of
those who failed to express opinion
during the presentation Of petitions
are opposed to the amendment, yet
the attitude Of many who did
present petitions seemed to be un-
friendly to the proposition.

BOUNDARIES OF ELKO'S
|NEW LAND DISTRICT

Washington, August. 5 United
States Senator Pittman Is sending
out maps showing the boundaries
Of the proposed new Elko land dis
trict and the Carson district and
in a circular letter says the rea-
sons for creating the land districts
are these:
First-The Carson City land dis.
trict is so remote from many parts
Of the State that the expense Of ut.
tending the land office aud provid-
ing witnesses in land matters is al
most prohibitive.
Second-Two land districts in
the State will facilitate the transac-
tions Of the business of the land
office.
Third-The land office will be
more familiar with the conditions
existing in each district and will be
letter prepared to give information
and pass upon disputed questions.
The boundary lines between the
districts, while possibly not salts
factory to everyone in the State,
have been established where it is
believed they will be Of advantage
to the majority of the people Of
the State. In determining the
convenience of the people of the
State. it is necessary to determine
the convenience Of those having
business with the land office. This
will require the consideration rath-
er of the means of transportation
than the area of eithrr district.
, There can be no question that
it is easier to reach the Elko land
Office from White Pine, Elko, Lam
der and Eureka counties. 1t is be-
lieved that the residents of Hum
boldt county, living east of Win
nemucca, will also he benefited by
having the land Office at Elko. The
north and northeast portion of Lin
coin county were inclu ded in the
Elko istrict because the people liv-
ing in such counties find it easier
TO go to Elko than to 60 to Carson,
as they go by way of Ely, Eureka
or Austin. The residents of south
ern Lincoln county, Clark, Nye,
and Esmeradla counties find it
more convenient to go to Carson
City because railroad transporta-
tion exists from such points to
Carson, while such transportation
does not exist to Elko, without 60
ing either to Salt Lake City or
nearly to Carson City.-Virginia
Chronicle.

FAVORABLE TO SUFFRAGE

washington, August 5-What
chance is there for the passage by
the present Congress of the woman
suffrage amendment to the consti-
tuition. This is a question being
asked by enlightened women in all
parts of the United States.
Owing to the enlightening pro-
ceedings in the Senate on July 81.
when the suffrage petitions werc
presented, it is possible to get a
line on the attitude of many men,
bers Of the Senate. for many stood
up and expressed their views.
The following is the symposium
taken from the Congressional Re-
cord.
Ashurst, Of Arizona: That the
granting of the elective franchise
to women would add to the
strength, efficiency, justice and
fairness of government, have not
the slightest doubt.
Bankhead, of Alabama: shall
vote against the passage of the
joint resolution.
Bristow of Kansas: There is no
sound argument that can be made
against the extension of woman
suffrage.
Chamberlain, of Oregon: There
is no reason in the world why the
women Of this country should not
be permitted to exercise the right
of suffrage.
Clapp of Minnesota: The time
is inevitable when the American
people will confer upon American
womanhood the only peaceabIe
weapon known to free government
for her own protection, and that is
the ballot.
Crawford, of South Dakota: /
have 10 hesitation in frankly say
ing that ! shall vote for it here.
Gallinger, of New Hampshire:
1t will give me great pleasure to
vote in favor of the proposed con-
stitational amendment.
Jones, Of Washington: l hope the
Senate will pass the joint resolu-
tion.
LaFollette, of Wisconsin: / can
not remember time when was
not in favor Of extending the suff-
rage, to women.
MARITIME, of New Jersey. be-
lieve to, woman suffrage would not
accrue to the well.being of this
loved land of ours.
Owen. of Oklahoma: strongly
favor the proposed extension Of the
franchise.
Pittman. of Nevada: The men
of my state believe women should
have the right to vote.
Poindexter, Of Washington:
am in favor Of the joint resolution.
Pomerance, of Ohio: | have
never had any sympathy with the
stock arguments which are used in
opposition to woman suffrage.
Ransdell of Louisiana: am in
favor Of the joint resolution.
Sharoth, of Colorado: The moral
right Of women to vote is clear and
conclusive.
Sherman of Illinois: For the
Lords sake let us give woman a
chance and see II she cannot get
us on little higher level than we
now are.
Smith, Of Michigan: / shall vote
for it here when / have an oppor-
unity.
Smoot, Of Utah: The logics Of
common sense has been the force
that has removed prejudice against
admitting women to equal rights
with men.
Thomas, of Colorado: l trust
that we will take mp, consider and
pass the joint esolution."
Thompson, of Kansas: shall
gladly support the constitutional
amendment.

Everything about this store be-

you prices that certainly will
please you.
Even if you only have a couple

nearly complete so why not do
your sewing in plenty of time and
buy your materials while you can
get fresh new goods to select from.
Only, a few short weeks now

the time when the boys and girls
need new clothes so if you have
to make any of them, we wish
to remind you that the new wash
