NDoRsEs woMAN's SUFFRAGE PLANK

Il indorse the declaration in the platform in
favor of woman suffrage | do not consider il
necessary to review the arguments usually adj
vanced on the one side or the other as my own
convictions proceed from a somewhat different
point OF view. Some time ago, a consideration
OF our economic conditions and tendencies, of
the position of women in gainful occupation
OF the nature and course of the demand, led
me to the conclusion that the granting of
suffrage to women is inevitable. Opposition
may delay, but in my judgment cannot defeat
this movement. Nor can see any advantages

HUGHES SPEECH
OF ACCEPTANCE
RPoMIsEs AID TO LABOR.

I'VE stand for the conservation of the just
interests of labor We do not desire produc-
ton, or trade or efficiency in either. for its
own sake but for the betterment of the lives
OF human beings. We shall not have any
lasting industrial prosperity unless but
tIess our industrial endeavors by adequate
means for the protection of health; for the
elimination of unnecessary perils to life and
limb; for the safeguarding of our future
through proper laws for protection of women
and children in industry; for increasing OPP
portunities for education and training. We
should be solictous to inquire carefully into
every grievance. remembering that there are
few disputes which cannot easily be adjusted
if there be an impartial examination of the
facts. We make common cause in this coun-
try. not for few, but for all and watch
word must be cooperation, not exploitation.
No plans will be adequate save as they are
instinct with genuine democratic sympathy.
Il stand for adequate Federal workmen's
compensation laws, dealing not only with the
employees of Government. but with those
ployes who engaged in interstate COM
merce and are subject to the hazard of injury,
so that those activities which are within the
sphere of the constitutional authority of Con-
gress may be dealt with under a suitable law.
1--WE propose to promote by every practi-
cable means agricultural interests, and we
include in this program an effective system of
rural credits We favor the wise conservation
OF our natural resources. We desire not only
that they shall be safeguarded but that they
shall be adequately developed and used to the
utmost public advantage.
1--WE turn to other considerations of import
ant policy. One of these is our attitude toward
the PHILIPPINES. That, | may say. is not a
question of self-interest. We rave assumed
international obligations which we should not
permit ourselves to evade. A breach OF trust
is not an admissible American policy though
, cur opponents have seemed to consider it such
We should administer government in the
Philippines with full recognition of our in
ternational duty. without craftsmanship with
the aim of maintaining the highest standards
of expert administration and in the interest of
the Filipinos This is matter of national
honor

legal matters. but I do believe that
initial advice on nearly all problems
could be given by the district attor-
ney without hurting the business Of
any other attorney. and at tho same
time help the Interested parties In
their troubles.
II think that the district attorney
could attend to the preparation and
f,ling Of road petitions for the people,
unless his position as adviser to the
county court conflicts with his doing
so. Such matters could be- attended
to moro promptly and with bctter re-
suits II taken care OF by the district

 Georgia flushed happily, and Winnie was all aglow.
 Maybe we have, but I assure you, Mrs. King. Alice has her sweet dispo- sition," Georgia said radiantly.

But the autumn lays slipped away into the early win ter and Mrs. King took them under her wing completely. Madison and Winnie found many errands back and forth to attend to for her, and Tom declared that he'd never get well un. less he could have Alice to keep an eye on his diet.

AT TIE OWL ; Ew By SHERWOOD GRANT.


 Winnie stepped out on the broad, old-fashioned porch and looked at the house that was to bring them all plenty of ready cash, if not a fortune. It was all they had left that seemed tangible. They had been left to the care of an uncle after their parents death, and only the house up at Med bury remained after the passing of Uncle George.
 Georgia, named for her uncle hope fully, had fixed on the solution. They were on the post road. They would turn the old house into the coziest of tearooms, a sort of inn of happiness, and, since an old owl appeared to be it's sole tenant, they caught the bird, stuffed it after it had given up the ghost, and bestowed it's name and symbol on the new venture for luck.
 ..I think l hear a car," Winnie's head was raised in expectancy.
 The car came into view, turned into the drive under the two big elms and drew up before the porch steps. Two young men sprang out. They seemed worried and excited
 How do you do, ladies?" one said, raising his cap. We've had an acci- dent Would it be possible for us to get shelter here and some sort of med ical help?"
 Alice rose to the emergency at once.
 Bring your friend right in," she called, and led the way into the sit ting room across the hall, where it was quiet.
 We were making up time on that l last stretch of road" explained Madi- son King, the cars owner. My friends are visiting me over at Kings Rest, my mothers place. We struck fallen | tree the lightning must have hit just below the gully, and it tipped the car nearly over and flung Tom out. Could phone my mother, too, from here, l please?"
 Well, of all things" calculated Win nie, in deep. cautious whisper out in the kitchen. Kings Rest was the one place of interest around Medbury.
 Paul Hampton was the third in the party. Georgia told the other girls he was wellknown writer. The doc tor rode over from the village and at once began his examination of Tom Bowen, cousin of the Kings. Just as he emerged with favorable diag- nosis, Mrs. Kings handsome dark blue limousine turned into the little driveway The Owl was very busy ap- parently.

SOLOMON ON ENGLISH BENCH
Judge Suggested That HaIf-Starved Bear Be Allowed to Eat
 Lame Pony.

A snowman named Viso Markinko- witch, belonging to band of Serbian gypsies, was charged the other day at West London with ill treating a brown bear and pony.
 Inspector Brockhouse said the bear was tied by the nose and neck to a van, and fell down when it's chain was undone. It was in a neglected condition, and when offered some pieces of bread simply took them like pills" bolting the food ravenous- ly. The pony, which was also tied to the van, was lame. Both animals were being dragged along.
 The prisoner, through an interpret CT, declared he was i'll, and if doctor would certify him well he would be willing to go to prison for twenty years.
 A veterinary surgeon said the bear wanted feeding up, but it was cruelty to allow the pony to live.
 Then it would be better if the bear ate the pony" the judge said, flor the bear would then be fed and the pony would be out of it's misery. l under stand that these wild and carnivorous animals have to be kept half starved or they become dangerous?"
 That is so," said the witness, but not so much as in this case"
 A remand was granted, not to en, able the bear to eat the pony. but to allow the prisoner to engage an attor- ney.-London Chronicle.

TnOSt AMERICANS IN CANADA.

During the last six or seven years about 100000 of Americas finest young farmers, the majority of them from Iowa, Nebraska and other states in that section, went to Western Canada to take up homesteads. Now thousands of them are breaking moving records to get back to their old homes in the United States. They are flee ing from threatened conscription.
 It required the war in Europe to make these Americans see where they had made a mistake. They have no desire to leave their fami- lies in Canada and go to the scene of the conflict as soldiers. They have no more interest in the war than they had when they lived in their native land. and they are coming back. It is safe to assume that few of them will ever roam again.
 Many of the western states of fer more advantages than Canada, but distance lent enchantment and Canana's turing advertisements took away many of this country's best farmers. It is to be hoped that many of them will now turn their attention to the great South west, and especially to Oklahoma, where the inducements are so much better than anything Canada has to offer. It is here that they will find peace and plenty and the prosperity for which they are look ing.-Oklahoman.
