COLORADO CITY, Cola, Aug. IL
Because, it is alleged, she 'sAsnds too
much time doing fancy work" Mrs.
May zimmerman, commissioner OF
records. and police Inagistyate Of
Colorado City, has been made the
victim Of a recall petition-tlle first
woman office holder in the history of
the country to face the recall.
She keeps books for fraternaI
order and does the work on city
time.' .:a .s
"She voted for. the purchase of a
dilapidated, second hand auto mo bile.
which was a needless luxury
She used the power of her office
to vent her spite on polictical en-
emies.''
She voted for an expenditure Of
$1,000 for a culvert which could have
been built for several dollars
She jeopardized the interests Of
the city by not attending strictly to
her duties as police magistrate,

tain when petitions with more than
100000 names were on file with the

mission of a proposed constitutional

the commonwealth
The preliminary step in the suf-
frage campaign comes as the result
OF hard campaigning by an organiza-
ton as complete as any ever seen in
Ohio. In every county and township
throughout the state, suffrage work
ers, with petitions, have covered liter
ally every inch OF, ground. in an effort
to procure signatures and swing Vo-
ters to their side. i S.
With the filing Of the petitions
came stories of how signatures in
many cases were secured from many
who had hitherto opposed votes for
women. Names were written down
in fence corners, on plow handles, or
on street cars.
One woman told Of climbing a roof.
to get the signature Of two workmen.
Another shoveled grain to convince
farmer that woman lis capable of

STEP EPNEcEssARY
Relay Messages to Belligerents
by Radio Contrary to Proc
lamation.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-THE TAX
ing over of all wireless stations in the
United States by the government will
probably be done shortly as a neces-
sary step for the preservation of the
neutrality of this country in the Euro
pean conflict. ;, .
A recent act of congress governing
radio communication in the United
States empowers the president to take
such a step in time of war or national
peril. =
1t is feared the strict requirements
of neutrality may be violated by the
sending of messages from shore sta
tions in the United States to ships Of
the belligerents in the North Atlantic.
The only way the belligerents have of
controlling the movements of their
the United States and relaying the
message by radio.
It is understood the German wire

practice, giving of course, material

That such procedure is in effect a
violation of the neutrality of the
United States is the opinion of naval
officers, and accordingly the question
was referred to the state department
for formal opinion as to what the
attitude of the United States should

namely the source of all authority,
the people; the agency springing from
the people in the form of duly accre--

object of the government, the welfare
Of the people-that is to say where all
the people operate through the people.

Edison plant. Another recourse is to
file suit for condemnation and permit
the case to go into court for settle

& The ideal democracy is an educated
democracy. This form of government
in the earlier days was confined to
small areas, small populations, and in
fact to small proportions of the popu-
lations within a given area. The pre-
vailing idea was that leaders with n
democratic spirit should provide for
the public welfare. Plato's Republic
carried the conception of an ideal gov
ernment by ideal men. Moore's Uto-
pia contemplated ideal people living
under ideal conditions, with. of course.
an ideal administration of human af-
fairs.
Modern Democracy.
The modern idea OF democracy i'm
plies a state where all citizens are in
terested Ia and perform the duties Of
citizenship. This involves, for sue
cessful administration, a clear vision
4of the function of government, the
willing and cheerful paying of taxes,
"a hearty response to public service,
and a service of integrity and honesty
ON the part of those who represent the
people In public office. .t5aEE
Briefly stated, there are two great
issues IN a democracy-ohe is the in
tegrity OF the citizen, the other is the
integrity Of his representative in office
These two being realized, most other
problems fall into proper perspective
and await an easy solution. Il

GOVERNMENT WORKERS
MAY LOSE THEIR JOBS

CHICAGO, Aug. 14.-Three govern
ment departments in Chicago will
lapse into idleness in the event of
prolonged warfare in Europe, it was
said yesterday. These are the i'm
migration bureau, the customs office,
and the naturalization department.
Business in the. immigration bureau
will be practically at a standstill
within week.
With immigration stopped, the nat
uralization department will neces-
sarily feel the effect.
The import business, the branch
which the customs office looks after,
is now demoralized. Ninty per cent
of Chicagos importations come from
Europe.
No word has been received from,
Washington, and it is hoped by the
heads of the departments that none
of the men will be laid off, as most
of the employees are thoroughly
trained and might not return to their
old posts after peace is restored.
