WOMAN SUFFRAGE DEFEATED

Woman suffrage was defeated de-
cisively in all three states where the
question was an issue in Tuesdays
elections
In New York it was estimated that
the suffragists were showed under by
a majority of nearly 100000.
Pennsylvania rejected the suffrage
amendment by majority claimed by
tn ants to be in the neighborhood
of 225, 1000.
Suffrage leaders in all three states
refused to admit encouragement.
They insisted that the educational
campaign of this fall would form the
ground work for eventual success.
The vote in Philadelphia was ten to
one against suffrage, but this ratio
was not maintained in other parts
of Pennsylvania. The majority in
Philadelphia against the proposition
was 100000 The suffragists ap-
parently carried Pittsburgh and AL
leghany county by a narrow margin.
Thirty thousand women watchers
were said to be on duty at polling
places in the three states. In New
York City alone 5000 women were
on duty from the time the polls open
ed at six O'Clock in the morning. Two
hundred Vassar College girls were
enrolled as watchers in Poughkeep-
sic. Eight thousand women workers
did active service in Massachusetts.

PLEADS GUILTY TO CHARGE

r. w. Pulver. who claims to hail
from La Crosse, Wis, and who has
been in Audubon several months, is
now in custody of Sheriff Sunberg.
He was recently placed under arrest
on a charge of giving liquor to a
minor and had hearing before May
or Mantz where he plead not guilty.
He was later given hearing before
Justice of the Peace, Chas. S. White,
at which time he entered plea of
guilty. An effort is being made to
secure one of the judges in this dis
trict to pass sentence on him for the
offense so that he can begin serving
time instead of waiting for the ac-
ton of the Grand Jury at the Decem-
Der term of the Audubon county dis
trict court. In the meantime he, is
confined in the county jail.
Mr.. Pulver was engineer at the
canning factory this season and was
trustworthy employee. This in
fringment of the law may cause him
considerable trouble as the offense is
a serious ohe. We understand he has
two daughters living at La Crosse.

WHAT'S, an Editor, Anyhow?

A little.village boy was given
the stunt by his father to write
an essay on editors and here is
the result, says an exchange:
Don't know how newspapers
came to be in this world. I
don't think God does for. he
halnt got nothing to say about
them ana editors in the Bible.
I think the editor is one of the
missing links you read of, and
stayed in, the bushes until after
the flood. and then came out
and wrote the thing up, and has
been here ever since. | don't
think he ever died.
I never saw a dead one and
never heard of one getting licked.
Our paper is a mighty good one;
but the editor goes without
underclothes all winter and don't
wear any socks and paw amt
paid his subscription since the
paper started. L asst paw IL
that was why the editor had to
suck the juice out Of snowballs
IN winter and 90 to bed when he
had his shirt wasn't in summer.
And then paw took me out TO
the wood shed and licked me
awful hard. If the editor makes
a mistake folks say he ought to
be hung, but if a doctor makes
any mistakes he buries them
and the people dassent say moth
ing, because the doctor can read
and write Latin.
When the editor makes a
mistake there is a lawsuit and
swearing and a big fuss; but If
q doctor makes one there is q
funeral, cut flowers and perfect
silence. A doctor can use a
word a yard long without him
or anybody knowing what it
means; but if the editor uses one
he has to spell it. IF the doctor
goes to see another mans wife
he charges for the visit; but if
| the editor goes he gets a charge
of buckshot.
| When the doctor gets drunk
it is a case Of being overdone bv
the heat and if he dies it is from
heart trouble; when the editor
gets drunk it's case of too
much booze, and II he dies it's
the jimlams. Any old college
can make doctor; a editor has
to be born. -

more because she realized that some

she was overflowing with charity and

was flushed, and the excitement had
added luster to her eyes and an ex-

proud Of her appearance.
And then the thought Of Philip came
to her. An old maid Of thirty! A
young man Of twenty.eight! What
would not life mean to him IL He
could have that three thousand!
She thought Of the dYab years be-

again. Then, lest the thought OF

dropped the letter into the post Office

Quixotic? Little Miss Raymond was
made that way. That was why she
