Dodge sounds curiousiy archaic as
 though Mrs. Dodge had suddenly walk ed up in the year 1914 after going to
 sleep in 1870. To begin with Mrs
 Dodge states in her first sentence that
 Equal Suffrage awaits a trial" as though she had had no opportunity Of seeing equal: suffrage in working,
 in quite large section of the United States. But Mrs. Dodge,s conception iof the functions of government are as
 remote from actuality as her attitude towards the atcivities of women. s''In
 the last analysis she says, govern
 ment is concerned with the protection of person and property and a little
 earlier she speaks of the verdict of the ballot box being supported by the jury
 box. the cartridge belt and the sheriff s
 summons.
 Tn the mid-ninteenth century the
 ideal of the then dominant political scinece was that. the government should touch the nation as lightly as possible that it should concern itself only with the defence of the nation from outside enemies and the defence Of individuals from theft and murder and assault. Nowadays the verdict of the ballot box is more often en-
 forced through the inspector than through the cartridge belt or the sher-
 iff's summons, The laws about which women are most concerned need swo- men to help support the verdict of
 the ballot box, and without the help of women they become largely inef-
 fectiye The enemies of society. the
 most deadly enemies of human life re not the gunmen of New York City but dirt disease and germs, and these enemies women can combat as well
 as men What good is 1t to be ever so well equipped with 3cartridges if the enemy is the white plague and what does the sheriff summons avail
 against most of the causes of infant
 mortality?
 The only writer who makes any att tack on the Anti-Suffragists is Pro-
 lessor Patten. He is concerned with
 the immense inaprovepent in physique bv1gor and health which has come to

Washington, June 27.-Attorney
General McReynolds' determination
not to announce at present his pur.
pose as to possible criminal prosecu-
lions in connection with the affairs
of the New Haven railroad system
was emphasized in a letter read be-
fore the senate today by Senator Nor

Reynolds, criticized statements made
on the floor Of the senate by Senator
Norris as to the departments atti.
tude toward the interstate commerce

Senator Norris had declared In dis
cussing the matter:
1.-THE attorney general did not have
in contemplation any criminal action
and nobody has been given immunity
In that case" and referred to state
ment from the attorney generals Of
nee to the effect that there never was
IN contemplation any criminal action;
that there was no violation Of any

SENATE DOWN TO HARD WORK
Members Of Upper, House Realize
There Can Be No Adjournment
Until Trust Bills Pass.

Washington, June 29.-Convinced
that there is no other path to ad-
journment but the one which begins
with trust legislation, the senate will
settle down this week to the steady
grind of work on the federal trade
commission bill.
The senate is far from resigned to
the thought of six weeks OF more of
discussion OF trust legislation in mid
summer. but II Is not probable that
the, spirit Of open revolt will show it.
self on the floor, and unless senate
leaders are at fault, In the predic-
lions, the three house bills or legis-
lation designed to cover the same
ground will be put through by the ia
tniliar process, weeks of debate In
fruitless effort to amend and then
passage.
There is no doubt whatever that If
the President would relent in his in.
sistente upon the antitrust program
congress could and would get away
from Washington in two weeks or
less. The house is in such shape that
it could be ready to get away in a
few days and the senate is not far
behind as far as appropriation meas
ures are concerned.

they had escaped death from bomb
hurled at the royal automobile. They
were slain while passing through the
city on their annual visit to the an
nexed provinces of Bosnia and Herze-
govina.
The archduke was struck full in the
face and the duchess was shot through
the abdomen and throat. They died
few minutes before reaching the
palace, to which they were hurried
with all speed.
Two Assaults.
Those responsible for the assassi-
nation took care that it should prove
effective, as there were two assaults,
the first with bomb and the second
with a revolver The bomb was
thrown at the royal automobile as it
was proceeding to the town hall,
where reception was to be held.
The archduke saw the deadly missile
hurting through the air and warded
it off with his arm. 1t fell outside the
car and exploded, slightly wounding
two aides-de-camp in a second car
and half dozen spectators.
1t was on the return of the pro-
cession that the tragedy was added to
the long list of those that have dark
ened the pages of the recent history
OF the Hapsburgs. AS the royal au-
tomoble reached a prominent point
in the route to the palace an eighth
grade student, Gavrio Prinzip, sprang
out of the crowd and poured deadly
fusillade of bullets from an automa-
tic pistol at the archduke and prin-
cess.
Raises Hatred of servTa.
Vienna, June 29.-It is feared that
the Serajevo tragedy will still further
embitter the none too friendly rela-
tons existing between Austria and
Servia. Both the youth who fired the
fatal shots and the bomb thrower are
Servians, with close associations with
Belgrade. The bombs also came from
Belgrade.
1t is likewise remarkable that the
first news of the assassination re-
ceived at Budapest came from the
Servian capital.
Terrible Shock to Emperor.

Archduke Francis Ferdinand was aima

Washington, June 30.-Secretary
McAdoo mailed letter today to each
OF the 400 national banks in the
United States asking whether they
believe 1t will be advisable for the
treasury department to lend a hand
again this year in the movement Of
crops by distributing additional gov.
eminent deposits.
The secretary asked for an opinion
as to what cities in each state may be
used to the best advantage as centers
from which the national banks may
place the money among their country
correspondents, and as to the sort Of
collateral which the bankers regard
as best for the security Of govern
Inent funds.
: while 1t is expected that the fed
eral reserve. banks will begin business
in time to assist in moving the crops
this fall" the letter concluded, "the
treasury department will nevertheless
be prepared to help business, to the
full extent Of its powers through the
proper use Of government funds, II 1t
becomes apparent that such help is
needed in any section Of the country"
Last year Secretary McAdoo depos-
tied more than $37 100000 with ma
tional banks for crop movements, and
every cent of the money was paid back
with interest before April of this
year.
