the Morningsidc Presbyterian
Church.
The arguments in Wendell Phil

the Wooster Convention, have
never been overthrow. and they
are absolutely contemporaneous.
We have no right to deny women
the right TO exercise power which
she has, and you cannot say that
women are inferior until they have
had chance to use the ballot as
long as men and prove they are.
Woman suffrage is fight for
democracy. The theory-ideal OF de-
mocracy has never been beaten in
the history Of the race, though il
has been temporarily conquered by
force and retarded by 1nenlight-
ened prejudice. The suffrage cause
Is winning every single minute.

Is only one Of many reasons.

May BUY RIGHTS
OF COSTA RIGA

washington, Jan. 27.-Roberto
Brenes Mesen, minister from Costa
Rica to the United States, discussed
at length with Secretary Bryan the
terms of the new treaty by which an
option on Costa Rica's rights in the
Nicaraguan canal route would be pur-
chased by this government.
Such ,progSSss was made, it was
stated, that an NSreement on a draft
may be expected within a short time.
Although no price was fixed in today's
conference, it is understood that Costa
Rica soon will make formal sugges-
ton of the value at which she places
her rights in the canal.
Further discussion OF the pending
Nicaraguan canal treaty in the senate
is unlikely, in the opinion of demo-
cratic members of the foreign rela-
tions committee, pending completion
of negotiations begun by the state de-
partment with Honduras, Salvador
and Costa Rica.

LEARN
FROM WAR
IS ADVICE

Washington, Jan. 27.--An appeal to
congress to go slow in expending mill
lions of battleships until it can build in
the light of lessons OF the European
war was voiced in the senate by Sem
ator Tillman. chairman Of the naval
committee.
He opposed building any dread
naughts this year, despite the admin
istration program, and offered an am
endment tG the pending naval appro-
priation bill which would direct the
secretary of the navy to submit to the
next congress plans and specifications
for four battleships OF a type most de
sirable in view of experience in Eu-
rope.
at does seem to be time for congress
to go slow in expending these tens of
millions OF dollars because OF some
supposed necessity or the desire on the
part of someone to have ships con-
structed in certain navy yards or in
certain places" Senator Tillman de-
clared. II feel sure a half dozen or
more battle cruisers strong enough to
put good stiff fight and swift enough
to catch anything afioat, or run away
as wisdom may dictate, would serve
the cuntry's needs at this time far bet
ter. Just the type CT battleship we
ought to build, we do not know.
ALREADY the fight between the frac-
Htions Of the two opposing fleets in the
North sea has demonstrated that speed
is of vital Importance to any war craft
we are to build, whether battle cruiser
or dreadnaught. The faster German
cruisers got away from the British, but
the slower Bluecher, although faster
than any battieship We have was sunk.
And yet the general board urges the
construction of more battleships. The
naval registers give the highest speed
OF any of our battleships at % knots.
If the contracts are over let for spec
ified form of ship, any change which, in
the light of experience might be

CLUBS
TO MEET
FEB. 5

Bismarck, N. D., Jan. 27.--The meet
ing OF the State Federation Of CONNER
cial clubs, which had been called Eor
tomorrow, has been postponed to Feb
5 on account of the adjournment Of
the legislature for one week.
Mayor Emery received a long dis
tance telephone message from Bis
marck this morning ctating that the
meeting of the State Federation OF
Commercial clubs, which has been set
for tomorrow at Bismarck, has been
postponed until Feb. 5.
This postponement OF the meeting
was made because of the adjournment
Of the legislature for one week. The
principal topic, which is to be taken
up by the federation, is the immigra-
ton question, the intention being to
take the matter before the legislature
with a view to having something done
for the bringing Of settlers to the
state.
AS the legislators are now practically
all out of the capital there is no need
of the federation meeting and conse-
quently the session has been postponed
until the assembly is working again.
