Morenci's First Lady Voter

MOrenCiS FlrSI Lazy voter
Of political significance as AFFECT
ing the Arizona equal suffrage law,
and its Interpretation by the Morenci
ladies, was the registration, for
qualification to participate in the
coming elections, by Mrs. I. F. Seth,
she being the first woman of Mo
renci to avail herself of the suffrage
privileges of the state. Mrs. Seth's
registration, the political declaration
of which will probably be taken with
interest by the office-seeking of the
county and precinct. as Indicative of
the party affiliations of the Morenci
ladies, was accomplished on the after
noon of Tuesday, about twe1ty-four
hours after Judge Lally'' announced
that he was prepared to witness the
proper recording of the towns voters.
Since the very beginning of registra-
ton, Lally's offices have been throng-
ed with the towns people, more
than forty having registered within
forty hours after the books were
opened. Should this rate continue,
the final voting strength of the
town will be of a magnitude that will
cause the attention of the county's
and precincts candidates.

THE KITCHEN SINK

The kitchen sink has commanded
the attention of the scientific brains
of the agricultural department, and
for the liberation of the housewife a
bulletin is now published which de-
clares most sinks are too low for
even a woman of medium height to
wash dishes without STOPPING and
it would be better to have a box or
stool for child or short person to
stand on than to oblige tall woman
to stoop to low sink. The bottom OF
the sink should be not less than 80
inches from the floor and 81 inches
is better for a woman Of average
height" In the same bulletin are a
lot more hints about rearranging
stove, table and sink in their relation
to the pantry door and the dining
room door, in order to save steps for
the housewife.

 We reached Yokohoma on Dec. l, after a very pleasant trip of sixteen days over the ocean. The ship was late in reaching Honolulu and so we did not see very much while there. At Yokohoma it was cold and rainy. Fuji San, the sacred mountain, did not show it's snow capped crown at all to the great dissa- pointment of many of our fellow travellers. Someone has said that "a view of Fuji is some thing that is not to be forgotten in this world or the next"
 After a day at Yokohoma we went on to Kobe, the trip down was very rough and we did not enjoy it a bit. Kobe is near our home and so we were very glad to land and hurry on to Takamatsu, now we are settled and hard at work. 1 attended seven Christmas trees during the holi- days. You can judge how we are kept going.
 The political conditions out here are changing very rapidly. All the people have been re- strained so long under the strict rule of the official that they are now beginning to show evidences of a desire for larger freedom. In the days past the officials were considered superior beings, made by heaven to rule and the people bowed their heads low to them. Now a more democratic feeling has taken hold of the people and their attitude toward the officials is changing. At the recent conference of the three re-

0LDFIELD VOTES FOR
 ALASKAN BILL
Only Member of Arkansas Delegation to Support Railroad Appropria.
 ton
(From the Gazette.

Washington, Feb. 19.-Con- gressman w. A. Oldfeld of Arkansas was the only member of the Arkansas congressional delegation who voted for the passage of the Alaskan railroad bill, appropriating $36, 900, 900 for the building of a government railroad in Alaska. The house passed the measure last night. The opponents to the Alaska bill charge that the $36, 900, 900 ap- propriated for the building of an Alaskan railroad is only a starter" They say that be- fore the road is completed. it will require more funds than did the building of the Panama canal
 President Wilson was hearty supporter of the Alaskan bill, although he is now strongly urging a retrenchment in future appropriations by Congress. It | is being noised about the capitol that the $25, 0O0, 900 appropria- tion voted by the house to be apportioned among the various states for the building of good roads will be killed by the Senate. This is part of a plan to cut down the spending of money from the federal treas ury that the Alaskan measure may go through. Now that Congres has appropriated $36, 900, GOO for the building of a government railroad in that territory and promised to cut out an item of 25 cents per capita for the people of the United States for the building of better roads, howl is going up from the supporters of the good roads bill.
 OKLAHOMA WANTS PIPE LINE
 As a result of the governments s taking a hand in the building of Alaskan railroad, the oil operators of Oklahoma are de- manding that the government expend ten or Twelve million dollars to be used in the building of an oil pipe line from Okla homa to the Gulf of Mexico. Farmers in the Northwest are preparing to ask the govern ment to build grain elevators in that section of the country. southern planters are QemanQ- ing that the government build cotton warehouses, and so on.
 Southern congressman who voted against the Alaskan rail- road proposition did so largely because they thought that if the government was going into the development business that ap- propriations should be made for the reclamation of swamp lands in the South, the building of roads and the improvement of rivers for navigation.
