SUFFRAGE NEWS

An attractive feature of the
big Ringing parade at Fargo was
the suffrage float tastefully decor
ated with yellow bunting and
pennants bearing the inscription,
North Dakota Men Vote for
Woman Suffrage November 3.
1t was drawn by a beautiful pair
IF dappled gray horses wearing
the suffrage colors. The float was
chee,ed all along the line until it
cached Moorhead. In front of
tie saloons OH the north brilge
the crowd jeered and Kissed, and
several shouted pitch it into the
river" Some of these men who
oppose suffrage for women at
tempted to grab the standards
holding the pennants, but vici-

there, and they concluded that
valors best part was discretion,
and kept out of reach of the suff-
rage mascot.

sister in law of Ex-Governor
Burke, is giving suffrage address

lated how suffrage was granted
in Idaho without demand of the
women, but as chivalrous rec
osnition by the men of that state.
She found woman's suffrage a
great refining influence. She
contended that voting was as
pleasant as shopping and much
less trouble. In Idaho IS to 80
per cent of the women use the
ballot, but they do not seek Off

dent of the International Wo-

AGRICULTURAL NOTES

l
A story is related of two farm
er' s wives and a store keeper
which might as we'll had happen
ed in Beach; and having a moral
TO it of vital interest to farmers
and businessmen, | am going to
relate it:
Mrs. Brown, a very good but
termaker, and Mrs. Smith, who
makes an inferior quality of arti-
Gle, were both trading at Jones
general store. Now Jones want
ed to be fair and CAV. Mrs.
Brown two cents per pound more
for her butter than Mrs. Smith.
Mrs. Brown told Mrs. A. and she
in turn told Mrs. B. and so on
through the whole alphabet until
Mrs. Smith heard about it, and
forthwith stopped trading with
Jones. Jones, to rectify matters,
henceforth paid the same price
for all and any butter that was
brought to his store; in short, the
honest Jones became unfair and
Mrs. Brown did not get her
moneys worth.
This state of affairs exists to a
great extent in Beach today; in
explanation let me call the read
er's attention to the following:
On August l, the New York Pro-
duce Market, which practically
governs prices all over the coun-
try, quoted:
Fresh gathered extras. rs to 27c
Extra 6rsts ......23N to 24Nc
Flrsts ........ Il to z3c
Seconds 80. ...... ~ to Zlc
Creamery %. 900. 29 to 30c
First >. ISM to 28Hc
Seconds ..... ~ to 24Nc
Process -. 1000. .ZO to Z3Ec
Packing stock .l9 to l9Nc
Soap stock ..... Below &c
Similar difference of prices
prevail in garden produce, poul.
try, etc. Now there is no reason
why the farmer should not get
the advantage of higher prices
and, incidentally, have an object
n making or raising a high class
oi produce. except the inaoil;.y
of the merchant (for personal
business reasons) to differentiate
between his customers products.
1t is suggeted that all, or as
many merchants as wish to, unite
in a produce society, where all
produce will be graded and
bought and an exchange ticket"
issued which would be good in
trade at any of the merchant 8
stores, or a slightly lower cash
price paid. This scheme would
save the merchants the handling
of produce and would give others
as we'll as grocery men, chance
of farm produce trade. The
farmer would get the whole val

AFTER BUSINESS MEMS ASST.
SUIT FILED AGAINST SUCCESSOR
TO COMMERCIAL SECRETARIES.
Suit Will Create Statewide interest,
As Many Are Named Defendants.
Temporary Injunction Granted.

Austin, Tex.-A suit instituted in
the twenty-siXth district court Of
Travis County Saturday, in which q
temporary injunction was granted
will create statewide interest and is
destined to be widely discussed and
referred to in the heated political
campaign now on in Texas.
Saturdays proceeding was inSti
tuted by Attorney General Looney
and Assistant Luther Nickels in the
name of the state against the Texas
Business Mems Association, including
the ninetyfiVe corporations which,
the petition alleges, are members OF
the association. The Texas Business
Mems Association is the successor
to the Commercial Secretaries Asso-
citation.
District Judge Charles A. Wilcox
granted a temporary injunction re-
straining the payment of money by
the defendants into the Texas Bust
ness Mems Association.
The suit is based upon alleged vio-
lations Of the terms of article 6457 r.
S. 1911, which prohibits the use by a
railroad corporation of any of its
funds or assets for anything except
the legitimate purposes of the cor
poration, and the provisions of chap
tiers IS and 166, acts of 1907, which
prohibit any character of corporation
from contributing to the expenses of
any candidate for office. or to pro-
mote or defeat any question submit
ted to a vote of the people, and pro-
hibiting the use of any corporation
funds except for carrying out the pur-
poses for which the corporation is
chartered
The petition goes into many details
and is quite lengthy Among other
things it alleges that the Atchison
railroad system contributed $4,000 to
the association; that the Gulf, Colo
RADIO and Santa Fe gave $3.50 each
during 1910, 1911 and 1912, and $1,000
last year, while the Katy is alleged to
have contributed $1,190 and the Tex.
as Central $275. Specific amounts
are not named as to other defendants.
The names of ninety-fiVe other cor
porations are set out dis defendants in
addition to J. A. Arnold, secretary
and manager, and, Thomas B. Var.

ADMIT WAR HAS BEEN AvERTED

new their efforts through the Ameri,
can government toward bringing the
constitutionalists and Huerta dele
gates into conference to discuss Mex,
ico's internal problems. While the
signing of the series of protocols Gov
ering various phases Of the interna-
tional situation has brought forth
confident expectation from some
quarters that mediation has been a
success, skeptiCism has arisen among
others vitality connected with the pro-
ceedings as to whether anything Of
value actually has been accomplished.
That war has been averted is gen.
orally admitted but of the actual paci-
fication of Mexico few see any yisi-
bic signs of progress.
The protocols already signed set
forth in effect the conditions under
which the United States will recog-
nize a new government in Mexico
Everything. however, is conditioned
on the establishment of provisional
government which must be the result
Of an agreement between the two war
ring factions. These have not yet
been brought together. Some of the
mediators doubt if they ever will be-
Even if they confer there has been no

Announcement at Monterey that
the Niagara Falls mediation confer

suspend was interpreted by constitu-

Constitutionalists.
They said the Huerta delegates rec
ognized that nothing could be accom-
plished without representation of the
revolutionary element and the belief
that the United States would accept
this idea and organize new confer.
ence to consider internal questions of
Mexico.

Ruling on Mexican Land Titles

Austin, Tex.--ln overruling mo-
ton for rehearing Friday in the case
of State VS.. Gallardo, from Travis,
the supreme court finally sustained
Mexican land titles where the grants
were made prior to Texas independ-
ence and the land was surveyed prior
thereto, but the final papers were not
perfected until after the declaration
of Texas independence in December,
1885, when the northern boundary Of
Mexico was declared to be the Rio
Grande. This forever means Judgment
against the state and validates all
Mexican grants similarly situated It
Is understood that there are quite a
few OF these grants in Southwestern
Texas calling for large acreage, and
it will be useless for the State to
maintain further proceedings to re-
cover same.
