on the subject being: 'The woman

womanly by voting is silly crea-
ture."t .....
While the Bishop of New York may
be opposed to equal suffrage, the
Bishop of California favors it. Arch
bishop Keane Of Dubuque, formerly
bishop Of Wyoming, sends the follow
ing message:
From my large experience as a
bishop of the Catholic church in
Wyoming, where we have had wom-
an suffrage for forty-two years, /
never have known but one woman
who made herself obnoxious in poll
ties. AS to the Catholic women in my
diocese, do not think the right of
suffrage has drawn them either out
of their homes or out Of the church.
] think there need be no fear of that
result"
In California some of the most ac-
tive workers for the Woman's Suf-
frage amendment were Catholic
priests, notably the Rev.: Joseph M.
Gleason, of Palo Alto, who says:
"The Catholic church teaches
above all things reverence for women
and generation for motherhood, but
there is no danger to the dignity Of
womanhood or motherhood to be
feared from the ballot. am looking
at the question as priest of the
Catholic church. We need women to
hold back the forces of corruption
and give deceney and fairmindedness
chance. Woman should be mans
equal, not alone in the home but in
the body polite, and she will. We
might as werl try to stop the torrents
of Niagara as to stop equal suffrage"
incidentally it might be mentioned

Quick Change Artist

While some of our people have
been admiring the quick change
artist at the opera house the past
week they seem to have left en-
tfrely unappreciated the much more
wonderful home talent in the same
line. The Daily Crouch has a rec
ord in that direction that entirely
outclasses the visitor. For three
years 1t has insisted that no one
but those of its own especial po-
litical and religious belief should
be considered for a city appoint
ment of any kind. yet since the
election Is is frantically proclaim
ing in every issue that neither po-
litical or religious belief should
be considered in appointments.

The new board of aldermen of
Lamar met at the city hall Monday
evening but did not transact much
business. The habit of holding ov-
err regardless of the wishes of the
people had become so much
a fixture with the men,
bers of the former administration
that it was found that it would
take a considerable shock to jar
them loose from the habit and get
down to business. The meeting
adjourned until next Monday even
ing by which time it will probably
be possible to transact the usual
business of organizing the city
government for the year. The only
appointments made on last Monday
were the position of surveyor and
physician over which there was no
contest and the present officials.
F. Z. Irwin and DR.. Crawford.

Latest Novelty

The Mclean drug store has just
installed a most beautiful and at
tractive novelty In shape OF a grape
arbor with a number OF small COM

their ice cream and soda water
patrons. The arbor is in white lat
tice work to correspond with the
new interior decorations which
have added so much attraction to
the interior of the store. 1t is COW
cred with grape vines with large
clusters Of purple and white grapes
hanging therefrom and the whole
makes a cosy and most attractive
bower for their many patrons.

After los days of turmoil the
legislature has at last adjourned.
The majority of its members were
elected on a platform opposing

has been their earnest effort to

The Missouri Pacific Iron Noun
tain has just completed the laying
of the heavy 9O-pound steel rail
authorized under last years pro-
gram of track improvement on the
system. A vast quantity of it has
been put on the main through line
to Colorado and the West, includ-
ing one solid stretch of sixty miles
between Sedalia and Pleasant Hill.
The rail also went on the main line
of the Kansas Division between
Leeds, Mo-, and Stilwell, Kansa I.
There was another stretch laid on
the Omaha Division between Kan
sas City and Leavenworth. On the
main line to the South considerably
over 100 miles have been relaid be-
tween Kimmswick and Poplar Bluff
on the Missouri Division, and near
ly as M c on the Arkansas Divis-
ion between Little Rock and Tex
arkana.
In order that the work of bring
ing the track up to the highest
standard may continue, President
B. F. Bush has already authorized
this year the purchase of 25,OOO
additional tons Of 90-pound steel
to be placed in the track. OF this
amount, 10000 tons will be put on
the main line to the West, releasing
75-pound rail between Ottawa and
Council Grove, Kansas, and 4,305
tons will go to the Omaha Divis-
ion between Atchison and Baker,
Kansas. The Omaha Division Is
already fine piece of track, almost
four thousand tons of heavy steel
rail having been laid on it during
1912. With the completion of the
work planned for 1918 this stretch
of the road will be as fine as the
best in the country.
In anticipation Of large crops
during 1918, the work Of putting
in the heavy rail will be pushed to
completion as rapidly as possible,
the management desiring to have
the road-bed in the best possible
condition. The old rail taken out OF
the track is sent to the mills a: d
re-rolled into new steel and then
relaid on the minor branches of the
road, displacing old light rail.

He has himself been hypnotized
