ought to have such education as
will fit him to give the proper ad-
ministration of his office.
It is for this reason that men
and women all over the county are
taking a personal interest in the
campaign of John G. Roger for pro-
bate Judge. Mr.. Roger is a man OF
wide experience in the world, has
lived a clean Christian, upright life
in Abilene for thirty-five years. He
is a lawyer admitted to the bar and
is recognized as a man of sound
Judgment and good sense. He would
be an ideal probate judge and would
preside over the Juvenile court with
fairness and sympathy. Dickinson

of his own district as well as taking
a broad view of the needs of the
county. He is always anxious to
save the county. money in every way
possible, and is good roads boost
er of the right kind. There is In Mr..
Fry no element of speculation or fan
cy expenditure for style or advertis-
ing, but he endeavors to secure from
the taxes Of the county the best
possible service for all the people,
and that is the kind Of county
commissioner who wins the respect
of his people and of the county at
large. He has made a mighty good
official, and the First district will
return him by big majority.
Two men on the Republican tick
ct are making such winning cam
paigns that their reelection is adj
mitted by everybody. and that is
H. w. King for county clerk, and e.
M. Blachly for district clerk. These
two officers have won the respect of
the county generally by their eff
cient service, and will have splen-
did endorsement at the November
election. They are courteous and ac-
commodating, and keep the records
of their offices in perfect form.
Many compliments have been heard
from persons Of all parties for the
excellent management Of their of
fees, and this goes long way when
it comes TO election. There is no
doubt about their success. The only
question is how large will their ma
jority be.

ROUNDING UP THE CAMPAIGN
IN COUNTY POLITICAL CIRCLES

The quartette of young women
singing at the Republican meetings
is making great hit. They please
the audiences and help make votes
for the Republican party.
The Democrats had two meetings
this week, both fairly we'll attended,
one at Harrington Monday night
when Supt. J. N. Herr Of the state
reformatory spoke. and one at Up
land Tuesday night when State SEN
ator Harry Mcmillan of Minneapolis
was the speaker.
The Ladies' Literary League mas
postponed its meeting tomorrow from
2:3O to 4 D. m. so that the members
who desire may hear Mrs. McCarter
at the court room.
p. Scanlon of Chapman has been
visiting Abilene for two or three
days. He is the Republican candi-
date for representative and IL there
is anybody in the county entitled to
the position 1t is he. Coming to this
county in the early seventies ne

tvs growth all these years and Is a

done by a woman clerk. She receives
small wages while the register,
man. has the time to enjoy himself
outside of the office. The fair and
right thing to do is to make a wo-
man the head of the office, a posi-
ton which has been filled with wo-
men several times in the history OF
Dickinson county, and always with
crelit to the occupant and to the
county. Mrs. Grace Lloyd Aumiller
is recognized as qualified in every
respect for this position. She Is a
native Dickinson born woman, and
has taught in our schools with sat
iswaction. She is the kind of wo-
man who would administer the af-
fairs of the office accurately and
we'll. The spirit of fairness ON the
part of the men as well as the de-
sire to help one Of their own sex on
the part of the women voters will
give her a handsome majority at
election. The office is one she can
fill and should fill, and will be
managed right under her care.
The more the people think of the
work that has been done by County
Superintendent Steen during his adj
ministration, the more satisfied they
are to retain so excellent school
man in the office. OF all the places
in the court house, none requires
more especial fitness than that OF

easy to place there one who is fit

WOMAN'S SUFFRAGE

One bill will come before the legis- lature in 1915 which has been there several times before, but it will not be treated like bloomer when it re- turns this time. This is the Woman's Suffrage question. The bill, provid- ing for Constitutional amendment to be submitted to the people, will be one of the early measures of the sess- ion, and from the momentum the cause has gained in Arkansas. and the powerful lobby of willing work CTS that is sure to be snatching but ton holes about the legislative cham bers, success seems assured. If the bill is put through a campaign eclip- sing anything staged in the South west, may be anticipated. The gub- ernatiorial contests of Texas and Oklahoma, and the Senatorial battles of Arkansas and Louisiana will fade into insignificane in comparison to the stumping the women orators would do. In addition to these will ing speakers, many of the leading men of Arkansas are aligned with the movement, and they have expressed willingness to speak whenever call ed upon,
 The leaders of the Political Equal ity League showed their aversions to politics when they passed up the De mocratic state convention, to have the Republicans put suffrage plank in their platform. It is like a heavy bat ter being given a base on balls in a ball game. to permit the pitcher to get at weak batsman.s The women did not even ask the Democrats to in- dorse their cause, but landed with both feet on the Republican conven- tion, which looked on with fear and trembling, and inserted the plank in evident fear there would be English militant tactics attempted.
 The platform committee of the De- mocratic convention did not have much to do, so a good show was spoiled by the suffragettes not ap- bearing at Pine Bluff and asking for the plank the Republicans later built for them.
