A few words to the women of
Meade county who will on Noy-
EN- Der 3, for the first time par
ticipate in the general election,
are not at this time out of order.
Since the ballot was given to the
women of Kansas, now nearly
two years ago, you have been
more than ever interested in the
political questions of the day.
Granting that you are thoroughly
familiar with the record of Geo.
H. Hodges, as Governor and
Arthur Capper, who wants to be
Governor, their records cannot
but draw striking contrast in
your judgment.
On the one hand we have
Arthur Capper, owner of the
Capper publications, among them
being: The Topeka Daily Capt.
tai, The Weekly Capital, The
Mail and Breeze, The Farm and
Home, The Farm and Fireside,
and few others. AS you know
Capper was a candidate for Gov
ernor two years ago and was de-
feated. He at once began cam
palgn OF misrepresentation
against the Hodges administra-
ton, and has continuously filled
the columns of his numerous pub
locations with statements which
he must have known were false.
He would have you believe he is
strongly in favor of prohibition,
that all fake medicine, liquor
and cigarette advertisements
are barred from his publications,
but such continue to appear in
his papers. These and many
other incidents of his deception
are the ''baits" upon which he
hopes to catch your vote this fall.
On the other we have Govern
or Hodges, who is a candidate
for reelection. Governor Hold
ges has given this state strict
ly business administration. He
has placed the state upon a cash
basis, paid the debts left by the
Stubs administration, complet-
ed the unfinished state buildings
left by the previous administra-
ton, provided for replacing the
state buildings destroyed by
fire, enlarged our state charitable
institutions, provided for the
publication of the school text
books by the state, esta blished
system of irrigation in Western
Kansas, given every state edu-
cational institution more money
than they have ever before re
ceived, and the fact we would
have you keep in mind is, that all
this has been done without in
creasing the state tax levy one
cent. For this statement you
need not take our word or for
that matter, any one else's, just
get your old tax receipts issued
to you under the Stubs admin
istration and your 1913 receipts
and compare them. You will
note on the back OF both your
1911 and your 1918 receipt
state IL milIs"-but this is
not all. Upon taking his oath of
Office Governor Hodges immedi-
ately recognized the women of
Kansas by appointing them, for
the first time in the history of
the state, as men bers of some of
our most important state boards.
But even more-and for which
every woman in Meade county,
and in the state as we'll, who be-
lieves in honest effort, should
support Governor Hodges for
reelection, is the fact that, not
withstanding the fight that the
liquor interests were certain to
wage against him, should he ask
second term, Governor Hodges
has enforced the probibitory law
as no other Kansas Governor
ever dared enforce it. Prohibit
ton is no lonoer a farce and

Newark Firm Hires Young
Women in Place of Men

In at least one of the large egg
houses of this city girls are going to
take the place of the striking can
dlers. An advertisement for girls
has received quick response, and the
firm in question will put them to
work tomorrow.
The girls have had no experience in
Gambling. A member of the firm
said, however, that within less than a
month they will have acquired suf-
ficient facility to be able to take the
places of the strikers permanently.
Two other large commission houses
here have replaced the strikers by
non-union men. In no place is any
interference from pickets anticipated
At Droste & Snyder's, 3s Mulberry
street the manager, C. NJ. Bur-
meister, said that the pickets were
not aggressive nor in any way often
sive.
"They merely inform the men who
are taking their places that there is a
strike on and request them not to
come to work here. We have no trou-
BILE filing the places of the men who
are out. We have four non-union

officials OF the company. after that
they will receive $40 a week, and
