INTERESTING OCCASION.

A meeting in the interest of equal
suffrage was held on Monday afterooon
at the home of Mrs. M. A. Munroe on
Seminary street. The speaker of the
afternoon was Mrs. Sturtevant-Pee of
Oakland, Calf, who spoke in most
interesting manner of the work accom-
plished by the women of California
since they have had the franchise.
The following laws with others have
been enacted in that State:
The eight hour law for women and
children.
The "Raising of the Age of Consent"
from 16 to 21 years.
The Red Light Injunction and Abate-
ment Law.
State Appropriation of 100000 for
delinquent girls.
This is the only bill for which the
women of California asked an appro-
priation.
Mrs. Sturtevant-Pe who will be
remembered by many as Miss Beau
melle Rockwell of this town, has for
many years been most prominently
identified with public work, An active
member of many clubs, she has in
addition been president of the Woman S
Christian Temperance union of Califor-
MIA, and through her usual executive
ability and wonderful personality has
enabled this organization to do more
for the cause of women and the better
ment of civic conditions than any other
factor in the state.
Miss Alice Brainerd also spoke very
interestingly regarding civic conditions
in California.
Over thirty were present at the
meeting. Mrs. Van Patten of Burling-
ton will be here in a few weeks to
speak further to all those who are
interested in the Equal Suffrage Move
ment.

Ontario Drys Win
Large Accessions Made to Dry
Area in Canadian Province

TORONTO, CAN, Jan. 7.-(Special
telegram to The New Republic).-
Yesterday the liquor forces of On
tario province got sound drubbing
in the local Prohibition elections.
Most of the elections were held at
the initiative of the drys. In 70
wet municipalities, in which a vote
was taken in 81, rs went dry. Many
more would have gone dry except for
the fact that the law requires a so
per cent majority over the minority
vote to bring about the change This
is big handicap.
The eight municipalities not yet
heard from will likely be wet.
Of the elections in dry localities,
precipitated by the vets, the liquor
men only captured one of the whole
lot. The dry municipalities were sat
is6ed with the dry policy.
The net result is that the drys win
forty-six of the ninety-two districts
from which returns have come, and
license will govern the remaining
forty-six, although the temperance
party having a najority in seventy
and the liquor party a majority in
only twenty-five, special victory is
the result. The drys won and saved
one city of 10000 which gives a Pro-
hibition majority of I35. The liquor
men made desperate efforts to capture
this place.
A great meeting of the Prohibition
Alliance held here last night heard
the returns with great hilarity. The
daily papers give much space to the
results which are considered very i'm
portant and significant Bad weather
affected the vote but a campaign is
immediately inaugurated to wipe out
another bunch of wet municipalities
in next years voting. A large party
of speakers and singers have been in
the field and more than a million
pages of literature were circulated.
Clergymen of all denominations took
large part in the campaign and more
than 1000 public meetings were held.
The liquor party had but five
speakers in the field, among them be-
ing c. Homer Durand, secretary of
the Ohio Personal Liberty League,
who pleaded for the personal liberty
of saloon keepers to continue skin
ming the people and multiplying taxes
to take care of the product of the sa-
looms. The liquor folks bought large
space in the venal newspapers at
stiff rates.
The drys are very jubilant over the
results of the voting. There would
have been a slaughter of the saloons
had not the law placed such a heavy

Little Talks
on Advertising.
The Great Modern Educating Force

The great educating force of our
modern business world is advertis-
ing. Not that cheap, tawdry style
of advertising which shrieks at you
from every fence corner Smiths
brand of soap is best-use Jones'
axle grease" but the thoughtful,
logical publicity which aims to
bring together the man who has
something to sell and the man
who wants to buy. The get rich
quick style of advertising cannot
last. The firms that keep their
products before the consumer year
after year have reason behind their
advertising. 1t will pay you to in
vestigate their claims. Ten to one,
the advertised brand is better than
the nondescript you have been US
ing. 1t pays to use advertised
goods. Give them a trial.
