MISS FOLEY SPEAKS AT FERRY PASS

Miss Margaret Foley of Boston
spoke last night at Ferry Pass, under
the auspices of the suffragists of that
community. Among other things,
Miss Foley said:
does 1t pay?
"That is the test which some per-
sons apply to everything. Not, is
it just? Is it right? VIII it advance
human liberty? Will it promote So
cial and civic righteousness? viii
it add to the sum of human happi-
ness?' but, will it pay in dollars and
cents-will it pay in material pros
perity7' And that is the test which,
with some persons, the proposal for
equal suffrage must meet after it has
met and successfully stood every test
based on right and justice. But this
last test, too, the cause Of equal suf-
frage can stand, provided the test be
the material prosperity of the whole
state and not the selfish aggrandize-
ment of the few who would exploit
the many.
Centuries Of history have proven
that, so far as the interests Of the
whole people are concerned, justice is
always the highest expediency. Equal
suffrage presents no exception to the
rule, and material prosperity, as well
as higher ethical standards, follows
upon its heels.
EFF the recent discovery Of democ-
racy, that government does not nee
essari1y imply fighting, is a reason
for giving women part in it, much
greater one exists in the fact that
government does still incidentally in
volve the chances of war. The old
idea implied state Of society in
which war was inevitably and and al
WAYS imminent. The original exclu-
sion of women from council was due
to the fact that ancient councils were
seldom about anything else but fight
ing.
1.-THE real question Is not whether
women can fight or not, but whether
their interests are affected by the
fighting which men do. The strong
opposition to the vote Of women in
some quarters comes from their
known genius for pacihcation. The
work Of women, the continuance Of
the race, il 50 seriously affected by
war that It isn't considered safe to
let them hold deciding voice upon
the question of . particular war.
at has been said that women
ought not 20 vote because they could
not be police. Women having already
become police in Denmark, in Nor
way and Sweden, IN Canada, In Chi
caeo, Denver, Los Angeles, San Fran
cisco, Tacoma, Seattle and half a
dozen other American cities, It is dis

At POST OFFICE

Gain, per cent ............. %
For the month Of October, 1916, the
Ell Centre postoffice exhibited re-
ceipts of $3O22.4O as against $1907.78
for the corresponding month of the
previous year. This produces a gain
of SO per cent, which is considered
remarkable and has a tendency to in
cline Postmaster Chas. w. Collins to
the belief that the local office will
soon be in the first class classifica-
tion.
These receipts are made up wholly
OF stamp sales and do not include box
rentals, money order receipts or other
revenue accruing to the postoffice de-
partment.
AS further indication of prosper
Gus times at the local office, it may
be noted that Postmaster Collins has
turned over to the U. S. depository
at San Francisco the sum of $2511 "a,
for the quarter ending September 80,
1916. The sum is in excess of all
office expenses such as rent, clerk
Fire and incidentals.
And further let it be noted that
for the month of October alone the
local office has sent $1824.83 to the
U. S. depository, practically three
fourths as much as for the entire pre-
ceding quarter.
Although Ell Centro is now enjoy
ing the free delivery system in the
city, Postmaster Collins states that
all of the boxes are rented and that
fully fifty more could be disposed of
were they installed.
The Ell Centro office handles on an
average 1900 pieces of mail daily.
The business has increased 100 per
cent since 1912 and it is stated that
only one additional clerk has been al
lowed since that time.
An effort is being made to secure
additional clerical help, the postmas-
ter now being in communication with
Washington regarding this matter.
A total Of 1870 pieces have been
registered since July 1.
