4 DIVINE COVENANT.

God Almighty gave Eve 10 Adam with the pledge that she would be his helpmeet and with this order Of com panionship. civilization has lowered to it's greatest heights. In this rela- tionship. God has blessed woman and man has honored her and after four thousand years of progress. she now proposes to provoke God to decoy man by asking for suffrage, thereby by amending an agreement to which she was not a party.
 Woman, remember that the lsraelite scorned divine covenant. and as a result wandered forty years in the wilderness without God. Likewise man should remember that it is a dangerous thing to debase woman by law. Rome tried lowering woman's standard and an outraged civilization tore the clothes ofi the backs of the human race and turned them out to roam in the world naked and un- AshAmeA

WHY |S WOMAN
 RESTLESS?
DESTINY OF NATIONS DEPENDS

By w.. O.. Lewis.

President Texas Farmers Union.
 Why is woman dissatisfied? Why does she grow restless under the crown of womanhood? Why is she weary of the God-given jewel of moth erhood? Is 1t not sufficient political achievement for woman that future rulers nurse at her breast, laugh in her arms and kneel at her feet? Can ambition leap to more glorious heights than to sing lullabies to the world s greatest genuises, chant melodies to master minds and rock the cradle of human destiny?
 God pity our country when the hand shake of the politician is more grat!. flying to woman's heart than the pat. ter of childrens feet

THE BATTLE 0F
 THE TIRES

Horticultural and Commercial Press service1
 IL is interesting to watch the forces of civilization battling for supremacy. The struggle now going on between the rubber and the iron tire propi2es to be the liveliest contest of the Twen- tieth Century
 The struggle is a silent one and there are no war correspondents to write vivid descriptions of the con hict but the results are more far reaching to present and future gen erations than the war of Europe,
 The rubber tire has been maneuyer- ing for point of attack for several years and has captured a few unim- portant positions in traffic. but 1t has now pitched decisive battle with its iron competitor by hurling a mil. lion "jitneys" at the street railways and the battle Is raging from ocean to ocean Upon the result of the struggle depends the future of the rubber tire If il Is comp, He'd 10 re. treat. It's doom is sealed but if il wins the battle il will revolutionize the transportation methods of this nation.
 If the rubber tire conquers the street traffic it's next struggle Is with the railroads of the country, and then the greatest battle between economic forces ever fought out on the face of this earth is on. for iron is the un- disputed master in transportation. and is fortified behind billions of dollars. and millions of men.
 Stephenson applied the steel tire to an iron Tail in 1874. but it vas 1869 before the golden spike was driven at Promontory Point which bound the country together with bands of steel. II took the iron tire iifty-tiye years to creep from ocean to ocean. but the rubber tire while warm from the creative mind of the inventive genius sped across the continent like an arrow shot from the bow of Ilys- ses. The roadbed Was already pre- pared and therein lies the power of the rubber tire over that of iron for government builds and maintains the public highway.
 But iron is stubborn metal and 1t has mastered every wheel that turns, has fought battles with every element above an4 beneath the earth and has never tasted the wormw ooG of deteat. and when rubber hurls it's full force agains; this monarch of the Mineral Kingdom, it may [, bound 10 the factory stunned beyond reeav- cry.

 Nation

follow the blow for living and my views may have in them the smell of the soil. my hair Is turning white under the frost of many winters and perhaps l am little od-tashionet. but l believe there Is more moral in- tiuence in the dress of woman than III all the statute books of the land. AS an agency for morality. l wouldn give my good old mothers home made gowns for all the sufragette's constitutions and bylaws in the world.
 As a power for purifying society, l wouldn't give one prayer of my saintly mother for all the womens votes Tn Christendom As an agency for good government. l wouldn't give the plea of mothers heart for righteousness for all the oaths of office in the land.
 There is more power in the smile of woman than in an act Of congress. There are greater possibilities for good government in her family of laughing children than in the cab inet of the president of the United States
 The destiny of this nation lies in the home and not In the legislative halls The hearthstone and the fam fly Bible will ever remain the source of our inspiration and the Acts of the Apostles will ever shine brighter than the acts of Congress
 This country Is law.mad Why add 10 a statute book. already groaning under its own weight the hysterical cry of woman? If We never had chance to vote again in lifetime and did not pass another law in twenty i've years. We could survive the or deal. but without home, civilization would wither and die
 God save these United states from becoming a hen pecked nation; help us keep sissies out of Congress and forbid that women become step fathers to government Is the prayer of the farmers of this country.

Woman Is Ruler Over All.

Why does woman chafe under re. straint of sex? Why revile the hand of nature? Why discard the skirts that civilization has clung to since the beginning of time' Why lay aside this hallowed garment that has wiped the tears of sorrow from the face of childhood? In its sacred embrace every generation has hidden It's face in shame, clinging to Its motherly folds tottering children have learned to play hide and seek and from it youth learned to reverence and re- spect womanhood Can man think of his mother without this consecrated garment?
 Why this inordinate thirst for pow. CT? Is net woman all powerful? Man cannot enter this world without her consent. he cannot remain in peace without her blessing and unless she sheds tears of regret over his depar- ture. he has lived ln vain Why this longing for civic power when God has made her ruler over all? Why crave authority when man bows down and worships her? Man has given woman his heart. his name and his money. What more does she want
 Can man find it in his heart to look with pride upon the statement that his honorable mother-in-law was one of the most powerful political bosses in the country. that his distinguished grandmother was one of the ablest filibusters in the Senate or that his mother was noted warrior and her name a terror to the enemy Whither are We drifting and where will we land?

traffic conjestion on already crowded thoroughfares, and also their inability to run to the more remote districts without charging higher fare, will ultimately result in their being dis carded as an efficient means of passen- ger carrying service in the larger cities. It is generally conceded, how ever that in the smaller towns this form of transportation will be fully adequate to supply the transportation needs of the populace. especially in such places as are but partially pro- vided with street car lines. In short it appears that while likely to prove a formira ble competitor. the iitney is hardly likely to supersere the street railway except under the most un- usual conditions. However. if the new means of transportation does no more to alleviate our transportation diffi- culties than to cause an improvement in the service of the majority of our street railways, 1t will have been a blessing indeed and right worthy of the support now being given by the public

 PAREoNEss.

one of the first important subjects
 confronting Congress at the opening
 session was Congressman Gardner's
 plan for investigation of the prepared
 his speech on the floor of the House at
 the last session, calling attention to
 the lamenta ble condition of affairs said
 to be known better by foreigners than
 by our own citizens. While much of
 what has been said is true, there is a
 feeling that too much agitation and
 blare of trumpets will not accomplish
 the results desired but that it is best to so quietly to work and strengthen the army and navy in their weak points and make the coast defense at least se- cure with ammunition and altogether duty for nation of one hundred mil lion. The investigation is likely to be resisted, not only by the Democrats but by some Republicans, owing to the fact that at this time it is deemed inexpedient to increase ex penditures and to advertise before the world any military weakness. Pre- parations for increased armament means that the hair trigger is ready for the declaration of war, argue some If the peace forces. The past year has witnessed more declarations of war be- l
 ween nations than any twelve months |
 in the history of the world. and it is | hoped that the year 1915 will be de- void of the ghastly events which have made war policies unproftable and unpopular and out of harmony with the world sentiment of the times The feeling grows apace in the countries engaged in war at this time, represent ing one-han the population of the earth-that there should be found some way to avoid the unparalleled blood shed of the last six months of 19l4l ever from being repeated in the history of the raee.-National Magazine

NOME, ALASKA, JUNE 5, 1915.

Although a comparatively recent in- novation the jitney bus has already raised an enormous amount of discus sion throughout the country and judg- ing from the amount of space devoted to the subject by the press, the matter is fast assuming a prominence in the Mexican situation and a host of other public questions. All of which indi
 cates that the jitney is filling a long felt want. Whatever may be said against this form of transportation it is undenably true that it is meeting a ready acclaimation on the part of the people as tending to correct many of the evils of the present system of public transportation. This fact alone, that it is a partial panaeea for existing troubles, is probably its great est recommendation. as the jitney, gen
 ing on the ever-growing problem of transportation in the cities. As a mat ter of fact the contrary is the case
 Not alone does the jitney offer no answer to the question of how to han dle traffic in the thckly congested centers but il also has not as yet de- veloped, so far as can be ascertained, a tendency to lower rates. Indeed it has been disclosed that. in some cases, the street railways, owing to the lowering of the volume of traffic in the business sections through the opera tion of the jitneys, have been com pelled to raise their rates to the more remote districts in order to avoid a loss. The great volume of business in the "close in" districts, where pas sengers are transported but few blocks, is the mainstay of the majority of street railways and it is in this field also that the jitney finds it's principle support. In the event that the latter absorbs the larger portion of the traffic in the down town sections. the street railways are inevitibly doomed and must suspend or curtail operation, usually much to the detriment of the outlying districts to which the jitneys cannot extend their service without themselves operating at a loss unless there is a radical change from the pre- sent size and carrying capacity of the cars. Until such a change is affected the jitney cannot safely be said to have come to stay, in the larger places at least. Such information as is at present available indicates that the inability Of the jitneys to handle a large number of people without great iy increasing their size or number, in the latter case adding greatly to the

(By B. F. Fly)

It was none other than my friend, J. l.. Redondo, who went to the rescue of my other friend, Collar and Over alls" Wisener, who got pinched last week for going into Mexico with six shooter in his pocket. And the beau ty of the thing is that MT. Redondo didn't even know MT. Wisener, further than the fact that he is fellow American
 MT Wisener had no idea of vloiat ing the Mexican laws, but he diI just the same When MT. Redondo heard of it, he made a personal plea to the Mexican captain of the guard at Ago dones and, though the case had al ready been reported to the higher. of ficials, yet, upon MT. Redondo's rec concentrations, Wisener was given his liberty, though his gun was, natu- rally, confiscated.
 This should be a good lesson to all Americans. If they insist on visiting. Algodones, or strolling along the bank of the Mexican side of the Colorado river, they will save themselves lots of trouble by leaving their shooting irons at home.
