natures. both to the counsel and to
the work. Last year in our petition
to Kansas men for the franchise, we,
asked that We be allowed 10 work
with them in the building Of a better
state. On that ground stand with
thousands Of new voters. Women
must have a care lest they create
a dangerous sex antagonism by hold
Ing counsel together and demanding
Of parties and legislatures only the
special things necessary to the wei
fare OF women. Let US hold to our
idea of working with men for a wider
social program, inclusive enough to
care for all the needs Of humanity.
The spirit Of the primary is abroad
In the land, and We must work with
that or we are unpnogressive.
Also may express the belief that
Kansas women do not need an organi-
zation to educate them to vote any
more than men do.
Those who believe that Kansas wo-
men have not intelligence enough to
use the franchise, ought never to
have lifted their voices for votes for
women last year, knowing there IS al
ready enough unintelEgent use Of the
ballot in this country.
Kansas already has the best laws
for women and children of any state
IN the Union, placed ON the statute
books by Kansas men. They are not
perfect. AS our vision enlarges we
see new fields Of mercy and justice
opening before our eyes in this
changing age. These laws will be
made as nearly perfect as Kansas
men can make them and they want
and need, and ask US to help in the
making. With Kansas women l plead
that We become neither excited nor
militant with our new weapon, the
ballot. II we cannot have our whole
program Of better things at once, let
US remember that adjustments must
be made slowly for this new indus
trial world in which we live.

Of party affiliations, feel that the
Wilson policies are right.
The man who did more than all 9th

aster as was occasjoned by the UMPIRE
cedented foods of March, however,
except for a few bridges which have
not yet been permanently rebuilt the
damage caused by the high water has
all been repaired but the making Of
the necessary repairs together with
the loss of business during the inter

most unusual burden upon the COM

PRESIDE. Tex, Jan. The bat
tie at Ojinago between the northern
division of the federal army and reb-
els continued this morning after hav-
ing been in progress all night. Five
or six hundred federals had already
been killed and the wounded, viii pc
far in excess of that number.
Horrifying sights were witnessed
on the American side before daylight.
The wounded soldiers with shattered
arms. legs shot off and injuries that
later proved fatal struggled through
the river and pleaded to the Amert-
can soldiers for help. All the physl-
clans and medical supplies available
here were placed at the service of the
disabled federals. Before daylight
more than 200 wounded had sought
relief on this side. Some of these so
badly injured that they begged the
American soldiers to kill them. From
the war-scared little village of Dim
aga back a mile from the river there
came what appeared TO be an endless
tide of wounded.
The fight on the border here had.
the appearance of being the most
sanguinary conflict of the present
revolution. Federal deserters also
came to the river in great numbers
indicating that the bulk of Huerta' s
army was disposed to give up. All
the deserterS VINO were not nJuEsu
however, were disarmed on this side
and sent back by Major McNamee,
commanding the United States bor-
der patrol. Major McNamee has
more than 900 guns which he took
from deserters.
During the night the groaning of
the wounded on the opposite side Of
the river could be heard by the Amer
lean cavaIrymen. The firing in the
darkness seemed to he heavier than
1t had yet been. All women, children
and noncompliance of Ojinaga came
to the river and were taken to the
American side. The little Red Cross
headquarters on this side, where The
federal wounded are being cared for
now, is as active as a field hospital
on battlefield.

Send Their Plan of Settlement
to the Governor and Pres
ident Shaw
az Assee,ArEn saEsa,

LANSING, Mich, Dec. l.-Repre-
,sentatfves of state labor unions were
still working today on plan, where
by they hoped to effect settlement
of the strike in the copper country.
At a long session last night they fall
ed to complete draft of the scheme
which they want Governor Ferris to
present to President Shaw of the
Calumet and Hecla Mining Company.
BY going over the head of James
AfcNau ghton, general manager OF the
Calumet and Hecla, who has refused
10 deal with them and making their
appeal direct to the head of the larg-
est producer involved in the labor
war, the unionfsts hope to induce
the employers to submit the differ
ences to arbitration.
It was expected the labor men
would present their plan to the gov
ernor some time today. While Gov
ernor Ferris was aware. in a general
way, of the nature of the plan to be
| laid before him he declined to fore
cast his action until he had carefully
considered the document.

WILLARD EXTENDS
HIS BEST WISHES

ditions will soon mend to such an ex-
tent that the business of this com
pany may again be on the basis of one
year ago, and the forces be fully re-
stored while under existing conditions
the most rigorous economy Is neces-
sary it should be clearly understood
that nothing is to be done which will
in the slightest degree adversely effect
the safety of operation and in that
connection I wish again to urge the
request contained in my message one
year ago today that all Keep constantly
in mind during the year just begun
the Importance Of Safety First. I"
Safety first means not only safety for
the travelling public and our patrons
generally, but also safety for each
individual employee. Much has been
done in that direction I am glad to
say during the last year and I hope
we may have the hearty and active
cooperation OF all during the year
just begun"

LADIES NARROWLY ESCAPE
Peasants Can Not Be Induced
to Leave Homes after Sun
Goes Down There.

CANNES, France, Jan. IA fur
Their daring attempt at assassination
was made today by the criminals Us
known as the PHANTOM bandits
who are infesting the country dis,
tricts around this city. They fired
two shots through a window OF
house i'm a small village, belonging TO
a PROMINENT Partisan banker and the
bullets lust missed two ladies seated
at q table. The bandits then disap-
reared and no further trace of them
was discovered although the district
swar1ms with detectives specially de-
tailed from Paris and Marseilles.
The terror inspired by these mys-
terfous night criminals has attained
such proportions that nothing will IN
duce the peasants to leave their
houses after dark. Doors ana WIN WIN,
everywhere in the vicinity and the
prevailing fear is spreading even
among foreign visitors at this resort.
