ASSOCIATION Committees Bring

Next Week.
NOT ALL rs SUBSCRIBED

the Largest Contributors
Have Not Been
seen.

The three days campaign for mem
hership in the Industrial association
closed last evening with reports which
arc satisfactory, although but ap-
~nroximately half OF the amount Of
money needed has been subscribed.
This is not surprising considering the
fact that so many of the regular sub
scribers are away from the city. APP
nroximately one-half Of the large sub
scribers to the association fund have
not beer seen. This is due to alb
sence from the city. absence from
places Of business or delay due to
consultations Of boards Of directors.
Although it was not thought neces-
sary. at the time the campaign start
ed. to continue 1t longer than three
days, developments prove that it may
be necessary to conduct another cam
paign later on in the month to finish
the work. This is being planned by
the board OF directors and will be
conducted with the same vigor and
enthusiasm as the one just finished.
1t is noteworthy that many Of the
stockholders OF the association had
planned to renew subscriptions and
were ready Immediately to give the
committee the amount asked. Some
gave more than the amount called for
and remarkably few asked to sub
scribe less. All expressed enthusiasm
over the future of the city and a COM
plete understanding Of the necessity
Of going glow at the present time,
and in the immediate future, until the
financial conditions OF the world can
80 shape themselves as to make In
dustrial development more easy.
When the committees returned to
the Offices Thursday evening to make
final report Is was definitely stated
that with the completion this coming
week the full amount OF money ex-
pected would be secured with little
trouble. The people Of Keokuk real

they have subscribed literally and

Protesting against the efforts of the
suffragists to exploit not only public,
but also private schools, in behalf of
their cause, the executive board of the
District Association Opposed to Woman
Suffrage, yesterday adopted a resolution
cOndemnins the practice which it had
been reported. is encouraged. at certain
private schools to permit the soliciting
Of members for the suffrage cause among
the pupils.
The committee was also informed that
suffrage dodgers" are posted on the
official bulletin boards.
The executive board held that unless
schools publicly announce that woman
suffrage forms part of their regular
curriculum it should not be taught The
attitude Of the anti-suffragists is found
CO on the assumption that parents who
intrust their sons and daughters TO the
keeping Of private schools should know
in advance the nature of education or
training they are to receive there.

of women that they may lose their
identity by the continued use OF their
husbands names is ridiculous.
II think it is quite certain that
such a custom will never become gen.
eral. OF course, II I were a great
artist, or authoress, or singer, I
would probably consider the retention
of my professional or maiden name
a wise business choice. But the great
majority of women are not known for
some big work. This agitation. after
all, concerns only very small mi
nority of women.
There are so many more important
things that should interest women to-
day than the choice of a name. it
seems to me.

hold a Henderson county commence

cated this measure from it's incipiency,
knowing full well that if adopted in
the proper spirit it would be a great
success and mark a new era in the ed,
rcational progress of Henderson coun-
tv.
The unanimitY with which the teach
ers took hold of this subject in their
meeting Saturday speaks highly tor
their progressive spirit, which viii
mean a great deal in the way OF ed
ucational progress in Henderson

committee to outline a plan and name

the history of our schools will be held

BOYS IMPROVEMENT CLUB.

The Rev. George f. Wright is to be
commended for his efforts in organic
ing and conducting the Boys Improve
ment club. Who can tell but what this
win be a case in which giant oaks
from little acorns grow?
While the clubs first work will con-
slst chiefly of equipping a eadln
room and conducting a workshop
among the boys from ten to sixten
years DID,, the possibilities of extern
sion are almost unlimited. It is mere
that the boys can pro1tably spend
their time instead of 1oafng ON the
streets Who can tell but what this
will be a very helpful employment Du-
reau for the young men, Their train
ing here may determine a lifetime Vo-
cation.
The club may develop into a night
school of ~incalculable value to botn
Young and old. Who knows but what
il will develop into a Hendersonville
y. M. c. A., a much needed religious
Institution?
IS will be seen in our news columns
the Rev. Mr.. Wright has had consider
able experience along somewhat SINH
lar lines and this can be employed to
great advantage in Hendersonville. Mr.
Wright is not conducting his as a
financial institution for personal gain
since the members will receive all the
benefits at a sacrifice OF the part OF
Mr.. Wright, who should be given every
possible encouragement by the people
Of Hendersonville, for which the tnsti-
tuition doubtless means much.
The possibilities of the club are
many and we hope to see Mr.. Wright's
ideals realized.

HENDERSON co. DEMOCRACY.

Henderson county democrats are
urged not to forget the precinct meet
ipgs and county convention called for
October 9 and 10. The democrats
should select clean, upright, strong
men of whom both democrats and re-
1,ublicans would feel proud.
A discreditable ticket as some demo
Gratis have had the audacity to sug-
sest would be a disgrace to the party
and it had better name no ticket at all
unless it can name one in which the
people in general will take pride.
The republicans have made the mis-
take of not naming a county commits
sioner from the city of Hendersonvilfe,
SO the democrats should take advant-
age of this and select a man that
would BE- capable of discharging the
great responsibility incumbent upon
him.
We need a commissioner from Hen
Jacksonville who is in tune with pro-
press and development, and perhaps
the need is left to be filed by the
democrats.
II the democrats will unite upon a
strong ticket and get to work, they
will make the outcome interesting.
