ANTS SAY WOMEN
Do NOT NEED VOTE
Think Condition of Sex Can Be
Improved Better Without
Granting of Franchise.

Asserting that there is something
wrOn@ with the condition Of women to-
day" but refusing to recognize suffrage
as cure for existing conditions. the
National Association opposed to Wom-
ans Suffrage today issued 4 statement
through its Washington headquarters in
support Of the anti-suffIage propa-
ganda.
The statement says that the Organiz1-
ton should he known as the conSarva-
uonists.'' for the National Association
Opposed 20 Woman's Suffrage is On
deavUring to conserve the home, moth
eThoOd. and womanhood.
Say Something Is Wrong.
The statement of the anti-suffrage or
ganization continues:
There is something wrong with the
condition OF women today. There is 10
question about that SufTragists and
anti-suffra gists agree on that point.
their only difference being the means
by which the condition of women could
be bettered and the condition of man
kind improved through the influence of
. The women. Suf~d S.StS think that II can
be done through the -ballot-bON. Anti
suffragists think that il can be done
better without the franchise.
I'VE think that putting woman into
politics and forcing her to do mans
work as well as her own is a terrible
waste. 1t has not been proved in any
State where woman votes that she has
accomplished anything by the franchise
which she could not have accomplished
without it, provided she possesses the
knowledge which We deny comes Urly
with the ballot. The work of women in
nonsuftrage States has proved that.
Women Need Education.
What the woman of today needs is
education in order to make full use of
the opportunities which modern times
have given her. AS we have often as
serted before. we believe in woman
having the fullest opportunity for her
individual development for the good of
humanity and Of the state, but that
this development should be used for
aim to develop the woman so that she
may make 4 better home by becoming
the best kind of a wife in the fullest
sense of that word-a COmpa Mon living
her full share in the partnership-and
so that she may become a better
mother, If she is so fortunate as 10 be
one.
We, therefore, stand as a body Of
Conservationists. Our aim is to con-
serve the home, to conserve mother
hood, to conserve womanhood. We
seek TO preserve all that IS best in the
old order of things, to incorporate what
is excellent in the new; we seek to
the social fabric along these lines and
not along the lines of socialism. OF
femlnlsm, and of economic independ-
ence for all women"

FOOT is
BADLY CRUSHED
Had to be Amputated-- -An-
other Lad Run Over

One boy ten years old is In the
city hospital with most of his left
foot amputated, and another boy five
years old, is at home recovering
from severe bruises this morning, as
the result of being run over by
wagons yesterday afternoon. The
first victim is Stephen, son of John
Kubek, of Maurer, and the latter is
the young son Of Harry Segal, of
Fayette street.
About $50 o'clock yesterday af-
ternoon, young Stephen was play
ing around the clay banks near his
home at Maurer with number of
other companions. 1t is said that
the children were trying to catch a
passing clay wagon for a free ride.
Stephen caught the conveyor, and
started to jump on the rear brake
block of the wagon. His left foot
slipped and he dropped beside the
big truck, the rear wheel of the
wagon passing over his left foot.
Every bone IN the lower half of
his foot was broken. The city am
bulance was summoned and the boy
taken to the Office of DR.. M. S. Mein-
zer, who was called from the meet
ing OF the medical society of the
county at the Packer House. Seeing
that the foot would need amputation
he had the lad taken to the city
hospital and notified DR.. G. w. Tyr
rell, who is on duty at the institute,
but who was also at that time at
the society meeting. The boys foot
was taken off nearly up to the an
kle by DR.. Tyrrell.
The little Segal child had started
across the street just before 9 o.
clock yesterday afternoon, when 1t
was getting dark, and was not seen
by the driver of one of the National
Laundry wagons. The child was
knocked down by the fore wheels of
the conveyor, and the right fore and
rear wheels passed over his legs.
Luckily he was only severely bruised.
DR.. I. Siegel attended the boy.

G. ". BARNEK0V
ON THE STUMP
Progressive Candidate For
Alderman at Large Makes
Open Air Address.
TELLS ABOUT CITY BONDS
Big Crowds at Two Street
Meetings Of Bull Moosers
Last Night.
TELLS ABOUT CITY BONDS

Charles w. Barnekov, the Pro-
gressiYe candidate for alderman-at-
large, made the first open air speech
of his campaign at Smith and Hobart
streets last night in connection with
a big corner meeting which had been
arranged by the local Progressive
club. Mr.. Barnekov told of his rec
ord while a member of the city coun-
Gil in 189S-1899 and gave some in
teresting figures on bond issues. He
spoke about the difficulty the city had
in selling bonds now in comparison
with the time when he was alder
man. Mr.. Barnekov said improve
ments were all right but they had
been made too rapidly and hence the
present trouble. Many other points
were brought out by the candidate to
show the great care needed in the
handling of the city's finances.
He also spoke on the labor ques-
tion and said that the Progressive
party was a friend of the laboring
man and referred to the plank in the
party's platform as proof of it. He
said he was against indiscriminate
in1unctions to settle labor disputes
and believed there should be some
action to bring capital and labor
closer together. He lauded Mr..
Colby, the candidate for governor.
and urged that the Progressive as
sembly candidates be elected, as the
governor without the assembly could
not carry out the party's principles.
The candidates speech caused much
applause. At the conclusion of the
Hobart street meeting Mr.. Barnekov
went to Smith and Prospect streets,
where he addressed another large
crowd.
James E. Griswold, Progressive
candidate for the assembly, was the
first speaker at the Hobart street
meeting. He was introduced by f.
w. Pugsley, who was in charge of
the meeting George Wustefeld,
candidate for the excise board, spoke
next and was followed by Mr.. Mucke-
lew, a speaker sent here by the Pro-
lressive National Service Bureau.
The latter was an able orator and
made strong impression. The
Prospect street meeting was opened
by Chairman Chapman, who intro
duced Mr.. Griswold, A. r. A. Over
gard, candidate for alderman in the
fourth ward; Mr.. Wustefeld and Mr..
Barnekov. All spoke from wagon
which had been decorated for the
occasion The speeches at Hobart
street were made from an automo-
bile.
So pleased are the Progressives
with the meetings last night that two
more will be held Saturday night, at
which time there will be two nation
al speakers present, the three assem-
bly, candidates and the five candi-
dates for the Board of Freeholders.

SULzER VOTE
IN THE OPEN
Court Announces That the
Final Ballot Will be Taken
in Public.

Albany, Oct. 16:-When the Sui
ger impeachment court recessed this
afternoon 1t was announced that 1t
would reconvene In open session at
o'clock. 1t was unofficially stated
that the court had disposed of all
the articles of impeachment. AT
the afternoon session it was stated,
the final vote on the guilt or inno-
cence Of the governor would be re-
corded. Because of the fact that
most of the members of the court
intend repeating for the record their
argument already in the record, II
was expected that the final dispo-
sition OF the case would not take
place until late today Of possibly
until tomorrow.
The judges were angry because OF
the newspaper accounts Of the vote
that had been taken and ordered the
police to clear the halls near the
senate chamber. All the windows
were heavily draped as though they
were afraid of spies and a search was
made for dictographs which it was
believed the newspaper men had
planted. The fact is that the record
ed votes were given out by members
of the court, and were authentic.
According to information received,
Sulzer was found guilty of having
made false statement OF campaign
contributions, the charge set forth In
article / of the impeachment against
him.
No member of the court will confirm
the result, and the governors friends
still insist that the vote was not upon
guilt or innocence, but only upon the
validity of article /. There is strong
reason to believe, however, that the
article is finally disposed Of and the
governor condemned. The seven other
articles will be taken up today.
The vote reported was 80 to 1S. The
two-thirds required for conviction is
8S. A change of one vote would have
saved the governor.
Reported Vote Of Judges.
-Four. court Of appeals Judges are
said to have voted not guilty--Chief
Judge Edgar NJ. Cullen. Democrat;

list as having stood for acquittal. Sen
ator Walter r. Herrick, Democrat,

tain Of the defense, is also said to have
voted mot guilty"
There was no separate ballot as to
the validity of impeachment articles
2 and 6. Early in the trial Judge Her
rick moved that these articles, all re-
lating to campaign contributions. be
struck out on the theory that conduct
that took place before Mr. Sulzer be-
came governor was not a ground for
impeachment Division was reserved
until the end Of the trial.

Why Note Was Informal.


Washington, Oct. 16:-Charge de
Affaires O'Shaughnessy presented
President Wilson's curt note of warn
Ing to the Huerta government in an
unofficial manner simply because the
American government did not desire
In any way to accord recognition to
the present Mexican regime, accord
ing to the statement of administra-
ton officials today. 'Shaughnessy
was instructed to deliver the note
'as private citizen" 1t was be-
lieved here that the American charge
did not have any communication at
all directly with Huerta, but deliver
ed the note through the foreign min
lister. This roundabout method of
communication was cited by officials
as another instance of the care with
which the United States is proceeding
in order that Huerta may have no
basis for any claim of recognition
1t was asserted emphatically that
recognition will not be accorded the
Mexican government unless Huerta
withdraws as dictator, and that this
country does not believe Huerta' S
claim that he has eliminated himself
from influencing the election.
Much significance is attached to the
meeting of the diplomatic corps in
Mexico City on the call of the Spanish
minister. Secretary Bryan refused to
say whether or not Nelson O'shaugh-
messy would attend the meeting.
1t would occasion no surprise here If
he were not present, for since the
adoption of the Wilson policy of non
recognition the diplomatic corps have
met on more than one occasion without
requesting the presence of the Ameri-
can representatives.
If Mr.. O'Shaughnessy did attend the
meeting 1t Is assumed that he set forth
to the representatives of other govern
ments the action taken by President
Wilson since Huerta's seizure Of the
powers OF dictator. All the members
Of the diplomatic corps are In accord
with President Wilson so far as their
attitude in regard to the imprisoned
deputies is concerned. the Spanish min
lister as dean Of the corps having made
representations to Huerta on their be-
half.
Situation q Puzzle.
The greatest perplexity is admitted
by high officials as to what Is going to
happen next in Mexico. 1t is admitted
that the United States has not sug.
gested to Huerta anything that it is
desired that he do nor offered him any
loophole by which he can escape from
the situation The presidents action
has been limited to q demand for safe
guarding the imprisoned deputies and
announcement of disapprovaI of what
Huerta has done and reputation of
the results of the forthcoming elections
in advance of the polling
1t is not even known whether Huerta
intends to go ahead with the elections
or not. One official said that he might
just as well hold them as planned, as
they would be worth Just as much now
as later. If the elections should be
held there would follow a real test of
the support given the policy of the
United States abroad, as other govern.
ments would then have to decide
whether recognition would be accorded
to the new government or not.
