SUFFRAGE NOTES

The following concerning the visit
of the Votes for Women car is taken
from The Devils Lake Journal: After
being delayed over an hour in a mud
hole eight miles east of the city, the
distinguished party of suffragettes
reached Devils Lake last evening at 8
o'clock from Grand Forks, and without
bite to eat since breakfast yester-
day morning the party drew up at a
down town street corner and Miss
Jeanette Rankin of MissouIa, Mont,
national field organizer of the suffrage
movement in the United States, plunged
into her address her audience at first
consisting of a few street loafers and
a handful of small boys. The small

Miss Rankin, charming young
woman from cne of Montana's. first

Mr.. Bryan Must Work.

Chicago Tribune: The fact that Mr..
Bryan loves his art protects him from
our sympathy. 1t is no hardship for
the amiable man to wilt the feeble re-
sisting collar and perspire before the
fan waving multitudes. He willingly
swathes his peaceful figure in the GER
emonial black and eagerly climbs the
platform steps to stand beaming and
oracular by the perspiring ice pitcher.
Mr.. Bryan is as cheerful as Job and
as immune as Shadrach. He is beyond
our sympathy, but it is impossible to
escape the uncomfortable feeling that
he is exposing us as a tight fisted ma
ton. He cannot live on the salary of
the secretary of state and turns to
honest toll on the chautauqua circuit
that the grocer may be paid and coal
laid in against the winter.
The United States is a hard employ
er, prodigal in congressional Joy rides,
penurious with the help.

No More Sack,

Chicago Post: "Conflicting state
ments," reports The London Saturday
Review. about the emoluments of the
poet laureate are settled by Mr..
Asquith's announcement last week IN
the house of commons that this Of
fetal votary of the MUSES. gets G70 a
year, and e27 in lieu of butt of
sack"
Why not the butt of sack? Why a
mere money payment in it's stead? The
poet laureates of recent years have
needed something to put good red
blood into their veins and no beverage
sounds better adapted for this work
than the heady, humming, robustious
old drink of Falstaff's days. Good
DR.. Bridges, "a dear old man." as our
leading critics damningly call him,
might not be hurt in the least by
spreading the consumption of a butt
of sack throughout the dinners of a
tWelvemonth.

Earning Extra Money.

Boston Transcript: Now that Sec
retary Bryan has courageously shown
the way to scare the wolf, why should
the other cabinet members suffer the
bitter pinch of poverty? Attorney
General McReynolds might pick up a
few honest dollars chasing ambulances
and practicing his profession in the
Washington police court; Secretary
Daniels doubtless could convert his
newspaper talent into cash by carry
ing route for The Star or Post, while
who would be so mean as to deny to
Postmaster General Burleson the right
to exc out his miserable pittance by
delivering parcel post packages after
office hours?

large contingent of Americans who

Wise and Foolish Buyers.

st. Louis Republic: In the last five
months the number of stockholders in
the Pennsylvania railroad increased
over 5000, or something like II per
cent. The period over which this in
crease took place was one of low prices
and for the most part one of slack
trading in the stock exchange. Those
5000 investors, therefore, are part Of
the army of thrifty Americans who
were prepared to take advantage of a.
time when there were many sellers and
relatively few buyers When the mar
ket turns they may see fit to sell or
may ba content to hold their dividend
paying stocks as permanent invest
ments.. About that time also there will
appear that other class of investors

GERMANY's AIRsHIP.
Many of the Zeppelin Graft Have
Been DESTROYED or RemodeIed,

SeSn- SSSLTOySO OF nSHISuGlSNu .
Popular Mechanics: 1t appears that
the Zeppelin company has built but
sixteen ships so far, that three others
are now building. and that two or
more are on order for the navy. OF
the sixteen SO far built, No. / was
experimental, and had to be dis
mantled in 1902; No. 2 was destroyed
in a storm on the occasion of her
second fight; No. 3 was replaced re-
Gently by new ship; No. 4 perished
in bad weather in August, 1908; No. 5
was destroyed at Weilburg in 1910:
No. 6 a passenger craft, was burned
in September, 1910; No. Z. which was
the passenger ship, Deutschland" was
destroyed by a bad landing the same
year, and No. s, built to replace her,
was so damaged in coming out of her
hanger at Dusseldorf, after making
three flights, that she had to be dis
mantled. OF the Zeppelins now known
to be in existence, only six are army
Or navy craft.

Pennsylvania New Coal Tax.

Boston Herald: In putting tax of
21s per cent on all the hard coal
mined within it's borders and shipped
to other states for consumption, Penn
sylvania is trying to do in a direct
and particularly offensive fashion
what other states often try to do in
directly, that is, to make. the peo-
pie of other states pay part of its
expenses as a state.
But the most important effect OF all
will be the new impetus given the
movement for the government owner
ship of the anthracite coal fields. Pen
nsylvania, which of all states least
wishes this movement to succeed, has
given the friends of the movement an
argument that is certain to- win an
army of earnest converts.
