Ohio Suffrage Notes.

The State Board of Agriculture has
granted space to the-Franklin County
Suffrage Association in the Audito-
rum at the State Fair Grounds, Co.
lumbus, Ohio. They have given a
splendid space for propaganda work,
as it is in the neighborhood of other
interesting educationa exhibits
among which is the exhibit in the
interest of Better Babies"

made.of citizenship.
DR.. William o. Thompson, president
of Ohio State University, recently
delivered to large audience assem-
bled on the west steps Of the State
House at Columbus, his first public
speech in favor of woman suffrage.
DR.. Thompson declared he had been a
believer in woman suffrage all his life
because he was never able to see any
reason for opposing it. Among the
reasons advanced by DR.. Thompson
was the very positive ones that every
activity in which women have engaged
has been elevated and bettered by her
presence and that she brings to every
new field of endsavor ability and above
all efficiency.
Miss Jane Addams, of Hull House,
Chicago, and Rev. Walter f. Summer,
Dean of st. Peters and St. Paul's
Churches in Chicago, will be the
principal speakers at the annual con-
vention of the Ohio Federation of
Women's Clubs at Chillicothe, Octo-
ber II to 81.
The Ohio Woman Suffrage Associa-
tion was formally organized in 1885.
School Suffrage was granted to the
women of Ohio in 1894, declared con-
stitutional in 1895. On March I, 1912,
the Ohio Constitutional Convention
by vote of rs to "a passed the Kill
patrick proposal providing for full
suffrage for women.
AT the special election September 3,
1912 the proposed amendment to the
State Constitution received 249, APO
affirmative votes, larger vote than
had ever been polled on woman's suf-
frage in any other state up to that
time. The suffrage amendment was
defeated only tweDty-four out of the
eighty-eight counties of the state CIV
ing a majority for it. The September
3 election was an interruption only.
The campaign was resumed the next
day. Agitation, education, organiza-
tion-these are the watchw OF rds.
Through direct initiative the question
will be again submitted to the voters
at the general election in November
1914. Nearly quarter of million of
Ohio men have SAID by their vote that
they want woman suffrage. With
such support it is not to be believed
that Ohio will long withhold citizen
ship from the women of the state they

QUESTION UP TO PRESIDENT.
Attorney General Gives Opinion on
Niagara Falls Water Jurisdiction.

The Secretary of War has been told
by the Attorney General in a formal
opinion that he no longer has any juris-
diction over the waters of Niagara falls
since the expiration by limitation of the
Burton act last spring. In answer to the
Secretary's point that despite the lapse
of the law, the United States govern
ment is authorized by treaty to prescribe
the quantity of water that may be taken
from the falls for power purposes, the
Attorney General has replied that 1t is a
question for the President to consider
Accordingly, President Wilson now has
before him a proposition to regulate by
executive order what was formerly ac-
complished by the Burton law the
amount Of water that may be taken by
the electric power companies from the
Niagara river. Meanwhile, the great
power companies have refrained from
increasing their use of water, according
to the reports of the army engineers who
are carefully watching the falls.
