WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

Although wOman suffrage was de- | fEatfd by heavy majorities in the elcc-
 tions Tuesday in New York, Pcnnsyl- vania and Massachusetts, the advo-
 cates of the proposition pollcd an un-
 usually heavy vote. From returns re
 portad yesterday morning, it appears that the vcte was about Two to ono In Massachusetts, three tto one in
 Pennsylvania and only four to three
 in New York.
 Considering the conservatism of the three state, the result furnishes cause for jubila ion to suffrage workers. This was the first time the question of giving women equal rights with men at the polls was sub mitted to the voters of the three states, and the voting shows that hundreds of thousands of men favor extending to women the same prlvl- lege enjoyed by thousands of ignorant males, many of them aliens.
 Another cause for qualification on the part of proponents of equal sui frage is that the heaviest voting against the proposition was register ed in tho cities. This shows that the political bosses are afraid of grant ing to women the right to vote. Even if the 5cxperience of the woman suf- frage states did not prove that con- ditions are better where women vote, the attitude of the big bosses of the big cities would be sufficient to show that woman suffrage must be a good thing for the peoples For the inter ests of the bosses and those of the people always conflict. The result of Tuesdays elections lin the three ultra -conseryatlvs states
 proves .,that it is only a question 9f time before women of tho United States will obtain sthes priyilegeg 70 which they arc entitled far mora so thah tho careless white male voter or
 tho ignorant black man--the elective franchise.

GREAT BRITAIN SNUBS |. 5. IN
 
 ROCKING CASE
Sends Steamship to Prizs Court at Halifax, Despite
 Protest.

Washington, Nov. Estate depart mcnt officials were surprised late this afternoon to learn that Great Britain had sent the American steamship Rocking into a prize court at Hali- fax
 This summary action was taken in the face of the prompt request by this government that Great Britain should explain the seizure through diplomatic channels.
 The department immediately recog nized in this action of Great Britain the fulfllment of the threat made by tho British foreign office June 22, when Lord Grewe answering for Sir Edward Grey, declared that his maj esty'S government regrets that they cannot continue to deal through the diplomatic channels with individual cases, but they will again point out that special provision, is made for the consideration of such cases in the prize court"

 time we have seen vcritable fever of stock speculation. sweeping over the country. Advanced prices in War stocks was the cause of this period of abnormal speculation.
 This is the logica! result of a great war which always secs wild speculation. Governments spend immense amounts of money which means that some in- terests make big profits and speculators rush to share the profits. While a few may increase their store in the midst of these wild market conditions. thousands of poor lambs arc tleeced.
 A New York bank cashier saw short road to wealth when war stocks were sent sky high. He thought he d 'mallc million overnight. He has disap- pcared and the bank he worked for is short $l00,00o. Other cases just as sad might be cited.
 The American people should keep their equilibrium in this n.attcras they have in others. Even the winners in such reckless speculation testify to .ho truth of the saying Easy come, easy

LAST.MINUTE ADVERTISING.

The Washington Herald recently offered a prize fer the best letter tell ing of the merits of the morning newsfapar as an advertising medium. This letter won the prize: '' There is q wide-awake spirit about the morning newspaper advertise ments that few forms of m rcantilo publicity can equal.
 Being neither "retrospection" nor q forecast" it focuses the lens of trade to the needs of the hour. AM,
 Ituoes not compel one to look back ward to yesterday nor forward to to- morrow. It sspeakss solely of today. It is the "nowist" of business.
 By it tho merchants take you un- (reservedly into their confidence; they tell you what they have and tho pric2 of it right now"
 This makes you fe$l as if you had d firmer grip on time"
 Advertising in morning news paper is the speediest way for the merchant and the public to "get to- gether."
 There is an ''up and doing" atmos- phere about it that is stimulating to both buyer and seller. The "market place of the%world," no matter how large or how small that world may be. offers an ever-chang ing aspect to the beholder. The latest viewpoint presents the strongest argument to the shopper. How ofen it is heard: "l did not get chance to look at the advertise ments last evening, because we had company" cor, i've went to theatre the 'movAls,' etc.D
 In the morning it is different. Thero is more freedom during early fore noon to attend to ones own affairs the mental vision is clsarer and fresh CT. Then it is that Hast minute" ad- | vertising speaks so conNincingly. Our daily needs: These are the things for which the majority arc striving.
 When q morning newspaper tells people where these needs can be sup piled to the best advantage. the shop ping public is quick to realize that 'laSt-minute" advertising presents to- l morrow's opportunities to them today.

LITTLE TALKS ON THRIFT

go'' by their lavish extravagances fol-
 lowing such trade levers. It is not
 thrifty to speculate in stocks at any time, much less at period when Wall
 Street is wildly excited.
 Lack of thrift. is not confined to the
 residents of the city alone. The farmers
 of the United States each year lose In
 the evaporation and decayof corn stalks total of S20O .O0O, ,000.' The loss from
 unnecessarily spoiled eggs amounts to $40, ,0Oo, ,0O0. Of 5000 cars of potatoes shipped from Maine the annual waste is 700, GOO bushels. Home canning of vegetables usually wasted on our farms would save America sl0O, ,0oG-00o an- nually. How can we expect thrift from the children brought up on farms where there is such wanton waste!
 Governor Ferris of Michigan IS a sturdy advocate of industry and thrift for young folks. Recently in a public address on Thrift he expressed the opinion that it was q great mistake. positive injury to their children. for parents to hand out money every tiiAe the child asked for it. unless somethlag is done to earn it. My father never gave me nickel in his fife he said, .'but he did better than that; he gave RIG ti.c to earn the nickel .!nd it was mine when 1 earned it., What money 1 spent. even from the days of my infancy. when l did childish tas,<s, 1 earned My father believed in lis boy doing things lorliimselfand le;rniag now to do il.

"SAFE, FARMlNGi!, ALWAYS

A program of 'Safa Farming" for the South is outlined in a circular which the United, Statss department Of agricultufa has sent to bankers, business men and farmers in tho cot ton states, and is being more fully ex- plained by Dean J. H. Miller of the Univs rsity of Arkansas and other farming experts who are now con ducting series of meetings in Ar kansas.
 The second stage of the "Safe Farming" campaign was practically started in spine Bluff Tuesday, when two large audiences of enthusiastic city and country men heard plain talks by Bradford Knapp, head of the farmers cooperative demonstration work Dean Miller and several cthors. It was fitting that the cam paign should be inauguratsd here, be- cause Of the great results that have ensued in the Pine Bluff a country from the partial adoption or the plan of diversification of crops and make the farm kesp the farmer.
 The history of agriculture in the South, it has been said, has been one of lean years and fat years. Short crops and high prices have almost in yariably hetY- followed by big crops and low prices and, in consequence, the farmer has experienced much dis tress. The increased attention which has recently been given to support ing the people upon the land has al ready resulted in much good, but there is some danger. it is pointed cut, that, with the price of cotton rising, there will be tendency for farmers to return to the old system of gambling on cotton. If the people Of the South produced their own living, it would steady the whole sys- tenn and keep the boat from rocking. The safety measures recommended are as follows:
 Firs;: Producs home garden for every family on tho farm, the year round. paying special attention to a plot of Irish or sweet potatoes sui ficient to supply the family with food of this character. Where feasibla, have a patch of sorghum or other cane to produce syrup for the family.
 Second: Produce the corn neces- sary to support all of the people on the farm and live stock, with absolute safety
 Third; Produce the necessary oats and other small grain to supplement the corn as food Day attention to winter grazing,
 Fourth: Produce hay and forage from some forage crep, sufficient to supply all of the live stock on thc farm. Use legumes such as clover, cowpeas, velvet beans, soy beans and alfalfa for the production. of hay and tc3isnrich the soil with nitrogen end xhumus.
 .s Fifth Produce ihe meat necessary ito supply the people, through increas- ed attention to poultry and hogs especially. Plan to increase gradual ly the numbsr of cattle and other live stock so as to have a sufficient number to consume he waste pro- ducts # the 1erm ssa malle the wasts
