THE DRIFT OF THE WIND.
Montana State Fair Edition.

StraWS snow the QflIC OF Lne Wlnu,
but when it overturns a. rock that
has stood solidly against it for years,
the fact testifies to the uncommon
strength of the gale. All sorts of
straws lately have shown the drift
of the wind toward equal suffrage;
but it must be strong indeed when
the editor of the Ladies' Home Jour-
nal suddenly weakens. Fol years
there has been nothing too bad for
Mr.. Box to say against suffrage and
the suffragists. Now he m out
with the following sensible para
%graphss:
ut is unwise for a woman to say:
I don't care about the VOTE She
must care. 1t behooves her to he
ready if the ballot is given her, for
when it is hers she must be ready.
That much is sure, and that much
she can do.
"It makes no difference whether
a woman wishes that suffrage may
ONE to her Or not, this much is
vital: that she should get ready for
it. A woman should say to herself
that it is going to come, and then
should begin to open her eyes to the
big world, to this big country and
to tho community IN which she lives,
and try to find out what they all
mean and stand for. Let her make
up her mind to take a half hour each
day and read a good newspaper; in
other words, get posted And that
is what every woman must do. For
if the vote comes to the women in
her state, she will nave to vote in
order to offset the vote of some
woman who may not be as desirable
to the community as she tries to he
Suppose the vote doesn't come
her way, has she had her pains and
spent her time for naught? Not at
all. She is the gamer, for, whether
D.. she votes Or not, every woman
should know more about what the
great questions of the day mean.
There is not the slightest doubt that
would be better companions
for the men of their families if they
did know. So a woman really gains
two or three distinct points by
mentally granting that the privilege
of suffrage may come to her, and
preparing herself for the intelligent
exercise of it before it comes"
President Slocum of Colorado Cor
lege was ono asked if women had
to neglect their families in order 20
inform themselves upon public ques-
lions. He denied it with scorn. and
added: "These are questions upon
which every intelligent woman ought
to inform herself, whether she is a
voter or not" Editor Box has been
slow in opening his eyes to this
truth; but better late than never,
Woman's Journal.

A man came in to the booth at
the Fair grounds and said: Il have

everyone of them to be able to vote
in Montana after the campaign this
fall. My daughters are worth just
as much to the nation as an mans

Curious Suit.

A curious exposition of callousness
and greed was recently made in a'civil
suit brought against Colorado sur
geon. He became interested In the
case of a cripple whom he found beg
ging In the street. and by an operation
requiring great skill removed his dis
ability. The relatives of the cripple
promptly brought suit against the
physician for removing their means of
support, claiming that. as cripple.
the youth had brought them in an av-
erage of about five dollars daily, while
now they were compelled to support
him until he could gain the means OF
earning his living. The judge prompt
ly dismissed the suit on hearing the
case for the prosecution.

The skunk brings annually to the
trappers Of the United States about
three million dollars. It stands sec

The value Of skunk in the raw

1913, and usually runs higher.
In 1911 100000 skins were export

fur is not very popular in America,
Europeans favor 1t, because it wears
well and has luster which makes IT

in passing through the city that it only saloon

the township could not get out to vote.

Shall We Quit Nov?

Shall We Quit Nov?
One Of the most discouragng phases of anti-sa-
loon work is the fact that some of friends locaze
the fight. They feel only keen responsibility for
their local battle. AS soon that battle is won
they become Indifferent the contests elsewhere and
also to the enforcement of law.
The Liquor Interests Do Not Give Up Easily.
After you close the front door of the saloon you
will find that sometimes the saloon will open the
side door, close the side door and he will carry his
goods into the cellar; close the cellar door, he will
crawl under the sidewalk and start bootleggng joint
When the saloons closed the battle is entirely
1t becomes necessary to put into action the
kind of fathfulness that used in voting the
city dry, that the law might be enforced When local
victory won the real battle has only been we'll begun
The law must be enforced The liquor people

The Need of Concentration.
