COMING INTO THEIR OWN.

Women OF America should take
heart, for they are slowly but surely
coming into their own.
Their entrance into the political
arena in certain states is having a
remarkable effect upon the dulled
conscience OF the body polite in
those commemorative.
Take the city of Chicago as an
example.
For many years the political sit
uation there has been completely
dominated by gang of profession
al politicians, boodlers and black
legs.
Today the women are in the as
cendancy and the gang is on the
run.
In former years many thousands
of men of decency remained away
from the polls rather than face the
insults and abuse heaped upon them
when casting their votes.
Unprincipled politicians gathered
together gangs of strong-armed men
whose duties were to intimidate any
man known to be in opposition to
their scheme of government.
The underworld elected men to Of
flee and controlled them after their
election
The enterprise. [volume] (Harlem, Mont.) 1899-1926, 1915-03-25
Ihe gang simply had the ma *

The gang simply had the major
ity OF votes, and worked their adj
vantage to finish.
But the last election in Chicago
put the finishing touch to gang rule.
Women flocked to the polls in vast
numbers and completely overthrow
the gangsters.
Their presence compelled decency
and reasonable order at the polls,
not because OF any respect the gang
had for Womanhood but simply be-
cause they stand in mortal fear CT
the feminine vote.
Both republican and democratic
candidates. for mayor of Chicago
were selected by THE VOTES OF
WOMEN-and they are good men.
Many decent men have been sub
stituted or the professional politi-
clans and boodlers whom the women
kicked into the discard.
Others of unsavory ilk are in daily
fear of what another election may
bring to them.
Women of Chicago are lifting
stricken decency to it's feet, and
what they can do for Chicago they
can do in other places.
Woman is coming into her own
and the nation will profit by her adj
vent into the political field.

Science has dispelled many dark su-
perstitions which wrew out of the
more terrible phenomena encountered
by mariners. The old sages, those wild

reading or writing, when steam only
rose from the cooking pot and rovers
fought hand TO hand, not with mines

ORREN WILSON IS
REBUKED BYCOURT
Judge Ranney Threatens Squire
Over His Unique Law
Practice.

Judge r. q. Ranney in the Court of
Common Pleas, yesterday morning re-
buked an attorney when two men
whom he had represented as plaintiffs
in suit to partition q acres of land
west of Cape Girardeau, appeared be-
fore the Judge and declared they had
not given consent for their names to
be employed as plaintiffs in the case.
The suit was brought several days
ago by Henry Koch, of the Cape, to
bring about :. partition of the land,
naming Allen Kimmel as defendant.
The case was styled Henry Koch
ct al against Allen Kimmel," but when
it was brought to trial by Koch's at
torney, Orren Wilson, the petition in
Guided the names of Philip Koch, of
Fornfelt, No, Henry's brother, and
Gustave Grieb, of Cape Girardeau, as
joint plaintiffs.
Philip Koch and Grieb declared to
Judge Ranney that they had not
agreed to the suit and did not wish
their names to appear in the petition.
No satisfactory explanation was
forthcoming and their names were re-
moved from the case.
The land which the suit seeks to
divide among its owners never has
been satisfactorily marked off. KIM
mel, who VS. represented by H. E.
Alexander, owns six-ninths of it, ac-
cording to Alexander, and the remain
der is owned by the two Koch brothers
and Grieb, each Of whom claim one
ninth. The case was not concluded by
attorneys.
