prospects for the team the Decatur
Review says:
There is scarcely any question but
that Duggan will be named playing
manager of the club for the coming
season. The directors are in favor OF
the star first sacker as the leader for
the club and it is not expected that
there will be any opposition to his Sc
lection. At the present time there are
no other candidates FOR the place
George NJ Reed. manager of the club
las. season. will be at the helm in
Rock Island this year, and is not after
the berth. Reed recommended 20 the
local club that Duggan be made man
ager. as he WAS perfectly capable IN
every way to handle the managership
at is expected that just as soon as
Dugean is named he Will get busy and
sign some players for the coming sea
son. Il is the intention OF the local I
club not 70 sign a bunch Of rockies
for the spring training trip and then
be forced to go cut and purchase some
seasoned men to strengthen the team.
Enough men en- the reserve list to give
the club a strong nucleus and with tie /
addition of an infielder and several !
pitchers. the Commies should present |

Proposed Young PeopIe's Club.

There Is a movement being consid-
cred among the organized bodies of
Jerome to establish a place where
the young men and boys OF Jerome
and community can spend their leis-
ure hours. The plans have not been
entirely completed but a committee,
consisting of one person from each
or the organizations, is beinng np-
pointed to complete arrangements.
At the regular meeting of the city
council. held Tuesday evening, a
committee consisting of E. D.. Piper,
E. b. White and s. L. Hughell pre-
scented the matter and asked the
council to allow the boys to use the
city hall. After some discussion the
request was cheerfully granted, the
council agreeing to also furnish light
heat and water.
Everyone In Jerome will agree that
we need sush q place. and those who
are pushing the matter will be glad
to receive suggestions from anyone
interested.
The plans which have been con-
sidered are to furnish the town hall
with some athletic apparatus, such
as Indian clubs, boxing gloves, rings
wrestling mat, ETC., these to be placed
in the back part of the fire room. The
south room is to be equipped with
game tables of different kinds, suet
as checkers, dominoes, cards anf
possibly a billiard or pool table.
In connection with these things
there is to be reading matter PLACED
on n table, SO that those who de
sire to read may have the oppor
tunity.
We bespeak success for this un
dertaking If our young people SHOW
by their patronage and care that the.
appreciate the effort and money e1
pended.

The Express Service.

1t might be construed from u
article last week that it was the man
agement of the Idaho Southern that
wished to discontinue the express
service over that line. Such, how
ever, is not the intention OF the arti-
Gle. The contract with the express
company expires on Feb. 2Sth, and
it is the desire of that company to
discontinue the service at that time
from the fact that another line par
allels that of the Southern. Strenu-
Gus objections are being made to this
arrangement by the local shippers
here who feel that they will be
| greatly discomoded by the change
Those having any tangible objection:

| should file their objections will

pany at Salt Lake City.
Should the express company per
sist in its demand for a discontinu
ance of this service, they should a
least provide an uptown office TO
the accommodation of shippers.

Votes FOR WOMEN
necessary, SHE SAYS
Miss Janet Richards Sees
Ultimate Triumph Of the
Suffrage Cause
MEN HAVE
DENIED THEM ALL

Several hundred men and women as
sembled in the newly decorated drawing
room of the New Century Club build
ing last evening to hear an address on
the woman suffrage question by Miss
Janet Richards. Miss Richards had
spoken here several days before on cur
rent topics but never before on the sui
frage question. Miss Richards and Of
iicers OF the Wilmington Equal Suffrage
Association were seated on the stage
as also were the officers of the State
organization, DR.. Josephine NJ. r. White
DeIacour. president OF the local sui
fraae association presided and intro
duced Miss Richards. Mrs. Florence
Bavard Hilles also made a few remarks
at the close of the address.
Miss Richards declared she looked
upon the enfranchisement OF women as
an ethical and economical necessity.
She said women today are in al
most every field of industry and why
is this. They were thrust into the
field of business. There were only a
few branches of industry where wom-
en- have not entered, but have
never heard of women enlisting in
the arts of killing. The women are
beginning to realize the relation be-
tween this economic condition and
the vote. The use of the ballot is the
most effective instrument for accom-
plishing things that are needed. Why
say wait until the majority of women
have asked for the ballot before II
is given them2 Did the majority OF
men ask for the ballot? Did the ma
iority of negroes ask for it, and were
they intelligent enough to use ir or
was il given to them? This European
war has had the effect OF awakening
the women to the new responsibilities
that have been thrust upon them.
Since the beginning of the war, wom-
en- have been compelled to assume
mems duties in France and other
parts of Europe. This is a condition
and not a theory and you will have TO
accept it.
With reference to the "anti's," The
speaker said: "Ibe anti's' have per
Evening journal., 1914-10-30

feet right to their opinions. providing
they have given the subject careful
thought. BY agitation Of the subject
10 sets more people to thinking and
talking and ultimately makes converts
for the suffrage cause. There is moth
ing more detriment to any cause than
lethargy."
In speaking of the time-worn argu-
ment that woman's place is in the
home, Miss Richards asked; Hasn't the
woman who is raising a family of chill
dren a direct interest in proper sani-
tation, good schools, etc." When poll
tics gets in the baby's milk, the mother
certainly has a right to say something
about the matter.
She continued to explain the women
have on many occasions appealed TO the
city fathers for things that they wanted
done, but with no success.
