Thousands in Mems
Leagues for Suffrage.
BY JAMES LEES LAlDLAW,
President of the National Mems
League for Woman Suffrage.

A few years ago the suffrage move
ment was confined to comparatively
few States, spreading from one State
to another; but now 1t has become a
national movement-not only nation
al, but international.
The first mems league was formed
in New York state about five years
ago 1t was difficult to get even a
few men to start the league, but IT
now numbers many thousands. The
movement has spread all over the
country, and now mems leagues exist
in a majority of the States, from
Maine to Georgia, as far west as Cal
ifornia, north or south, east and west.
These leagues were affiliated and a
National Mems League was formed.
Our duties are to agitate the move
ment throughout the country, to in
terest men and form leagues. We
feel greatly honored at being al
lowed to fight for this great cause.
We are ready to fight for it and to

don't know of anything that
gives me more pleasure than that
Of expressing my sure belief in the
justice of Women's Suffrage, my
deep regret that a recognition Of
its rights should have been so long
delayed and the confident hope
that the cause will gain all that
to il by right belongs.
For this movement | wish not
only to give my sympathy but my
hearty support in every other way.

Judge Chas. @. Holbrook, aged
DO years, died at his home in Ala
mosa Thursday, Aug. 27, at AIS
a. m, from hardening of the arter-
les. The judge had been ailing
during the night, but was seri-
ousIy i'll for only few minutes,
and died before a physician could
be summoned. The body will lie
in state at the Alamosa opera house
Sunday and the funeral will be
held Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock
at that place. The funeral sermon

STATE HIGHWAY SWITCHED
Highway No. Is Is To Be Built via The
South Fork Route

The Pass -Me-By Tunnel COM
pany has lost it's long, hard fight
for the maintenance and compile
ton of state highway No. Is, for
merly routed by the Alamosa river
past and across the p. M. b. prop
erty.
This is indeed heavy blow to
all the mining interests located on
the headwaters of the Alamosa.
1t was very reasonable to believe
that construction of this road up
the Alamosa would be completed
this year.
What influence was brought to
bear to cause this switch is best
known only to those who have
been closely identified with the
matter.
1t appears evident that the p,
M. B. management will be forced
to change its plans to meet this
present situation. What the atti-
tude of the company may be is
unknown at this time. To proceed
with their original plans will in
volve the completion of the road rs
far up as the property. This would
necessitate quite heavy outlay by
the company, which appears un-
warranted, as the road route is
owned by the public and is not
private highway.
A big force is at once to COM
mence construction of the South
Fork route.

Thank God for Wilson

An exchange says, The American people
should get down upon their knees and thank God
that he has kept them from becoming involved in
a horrible calamity like the European war.
Everywhere in this country peace-loving peo-
pie are devoutly thankful that we have president
of such breadth of vision and depth of principle
that the destines of this nation may be safely
trusted in his hands The jingoes who would have
had America engaged in butchering Mexicans for
the protection of Hearst interests feel that
their advice has its in the warfare being
waged between nations of Europe whose monarchs
and rulers are, unfortunately Roosevelts and not
Wilson's.
TINS NEWSPAPER urges upon all voters, ire
spective of party, the importance of voting the
primary election September Sth. The primary was
evolved and designed for the purpose Of giving the
people opportunity to select their
candidates. function which was hitherto jeaously
guarded by politicians and machines The people
are the best Judge to what is requisite in a
didate and they should not pass the opportunity of
selecting the official servants of the public
THE death of Judge Holbrook has created a
vacancy which will call for appointment by the
governor or the designation of a district or SUI
preme Judge to sit in this district until the sue
cessor be elected. The statute says when there is
vacancy from any cause the Judge may be elected
at the next regular election. In this case nomina-
tons would probably have to be made by vacancy

LUCILLE LOUDON HURT

Miss Lucille Loudon had a mar
row escape from death Thursday
evening when she was thrown from
horse at the Birchfield ranch,
two miles north of Monte Vista.
Lucille and Mildred Baird went
out to the ranch in the afternoon
to see Mrs. Birchfield, sister of
Mrs. Baird, who has been sick.
They were persuaded to remain to
supper, after which they started to
mount their horses and return
home. Miss Loudon's horse was
eager to start and when she at
mpted to mount he reared, throw
ing her to the back of the saddle
and then bucked until she fell to
the ground. In the fall she was
struck on the chin and rendered
unconscious. DR.. Trueblood was
summoned and the girl WAS brought
in the ambulance to Monte Vista,
where she did not regain conscious
ness until five and one-half hours
later, after which she suffered in
tenseIy and was delirious from pain
in the head. Since morning, how
ever, she has been resting easily
and it is thought will recover
nicely.
The accident is considered to
have resulted most fortunately, AS
Miss Loudon barely missed strik-
ing grain binder when she was
thrown.

The New Route for
State Highway

After period of vacillating policy regarding
the route to be followed by state highway NO s.
II has been determined to abandon the Alamosa
river route, after expending large amount OF
money, and build a road up the south fork of the
Rio Grande The south fork route may have
some topographic advantages but it traverses
section of country which has no interests to be de-
veloped aside from furnishing sheep drive Tor
grazing stock. The Alamosa route was declared
feasible and after having been accepted and work
done the reason for its abandonment has been lib
orally conjectured.
