SUFFRAGETTESW WILL CRACK THE WHIP
 OVER CONGRESS
Prominent Leaders Are Now in Ari. zona to Organize the Women in United Effort to Influence Repre-. sentatives From This State.

TUCSON, March 9.@That the gunl of the Congressional Union for Wo man Suffrage may count on the Demo crats on account of the hostile atti tude assumed by administration lead CTS in regard to the Susan B. An thony amendment for equal suffrage in the United States, was the intima- tion today of Miss Doris Stevens, of New York, chairman of the organiza, ! tion department of the Union. I Miss Stevens and Mrs. E. St. Clair Thompson are at the Santa Rita ho- tel where the state conference open ed this afternoon with one o'clock luncheon. -'- '~if-i '-- ''5-'
 We believe that the Democratic Representatives in Congress, who are endeavoring to stifie the amendment. should be given every opportunity to change their hostile attitude, but unless some immediate action is talk len, the question may become parti- san one in the presidential election, '' said Miss Stevens.
 Mrs. B. St. Clair Thompson, of South Carolina, southern field secre- tary for the union, outlined the plans of the conference this morning.
 After the luncheon this afternoon she said the organlzation of the con- ference will take place. State off cers will be elected and constitu- tion will be adopted.
 The plan Of the Congressional Union is to have thorough organi- zation of women in each state to back federal amendment called the Susan B. Anthony amendment en- franchising women of the entire country The amendment states l that
 'The right of citizens of the Unit ed States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any state on account of sex. Written in 1875
 This amendment was written by Susan B Anthony in 1875, and was first introduced in the senate by Senator Sergeant e of Carolina in 1S7S There never, however, was a vote taken in the House of Repre- sentatives until January 12, 1915.
 that time, the sentiment was very strong. The two-thirds vote requir- ed for a constitutional amendment was lost by only IS votes.
 Miss Stevens in speaking of the wonderful growth of the congress sional union organization said:
 'In three short years the nation al suffrage question has risen from dormant issue to one of such pro- portions as to be vital in the Novem- Der presidential election. This has been due to the action of the congress sional union for woman suffrage.
 Tn every state where the union has started campaign machinery go- ing, both men and women are heart fly cooperating to secure the pass age of the amendment.
 The thing that is new in the method used by this organization is to unite the strength already existing in the east with the strength of the voting women of the west. The Democratic party is now in control of congress and has majority oi

STATE FAIR WILL BE STARTED ON
 NOV. 13
If Held Earlier There Would Be Dan- ger of Political Campaign Interfer- ing With Success of Event

PHOENIX, March 7.-At meeting of the fair commission it was definite ly decided to hold the fair during the week of Nov 13. An earlier date had been considered, but on account of the political campaign which will be in full swing this year it was thought ad- visable not to hold it until after the election. s
 The stockmen were also taken into consideration in fixing it for the later date, as during the latter part of Oc- tober they are engaged in gathering and shipping cattle, the contracts be- ing generally made for delivery not later than Nov. l, and an earlier date would prevent many of them from at tending. ye .- Secretary T. D.. Shaughnessy is al- ready engaged on the new, premium list and will issue it much earlier this year than formerly. The commission at it's meeting on Saturday created the new position of superintendent of speed and appointed Dr. J. G. Belt to the place. He will have complete charge of the speed department and will assist the secretary in preparing the program for these events, E
 This work has heretofore fallen pu- on the shouldes of the secretary, but he is so busy with his other duties that he finds it impossible to give the proper attention to all of them.
 pr. Belt has been raiser of and racer of horses in the state for several years and comes to the position fully equipped to give efficient service to that department.
 w. w. Cook, superintendent of the cowboy sports, is planning to give the patrons of the fair this year some thing little better in this line than has ever been pulled off before in the shape of a national roping contest. He expects to offer prizes which will bring the most noted cowboys in the United States here to participate in the contest. One of the prizes will carry with it the championship of the
 United States.

The Pineapple and the Bee
BY William Cowper

BY William Cowper
The pineaples. in triple row,
We're basking hot, and all in blow;
A bee Of most deserving taste
Perceived the fragrance as he pass'd.
On eager wing the spoiler came,
And search'd for crannies in th frame,
Urged his attempt from every side,
To every pane his trunk applied;
But still in vain, the frame was tight,
And only pervious to the light:
Thus having wasted half the day,
He trimm'd his flight another way.
Methinks, said, in thee | find
The sin and madness Of mankind.
To joys forbidden man aspires,
Consumes his soul with vain desires;
Folly the spring Of his pursuit,
And disappointment all the fruit.
While Cynthio ogles. as she passes,
The nyraph between two chariot
glasses.
She is the pineapple, and he
The silly unsuspeeting bee.
The maid who views with pensive air
The showglass fraught with glittering
ware,
Sees watches, bracelets, rings and
lockets,
Blu, sighs at thought OF empty pockets;
Like thine her appetite is keen,
But, ah, the cruel glass betweenl
Our dear delights are often such,
Exposed to view. but not to touch;
The sight our foolish heart inflames,
We long for pineapples in frames;
With hopeless wish one looks and
fingers;
One breaks the glass, and cuts his
fingers:
But they whom truth and wisdom lead,
Can gather honey from weed.

THE TOWN PAPER

George A. Starring of the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin says:
"The average local town paper is
worth thousands of dollars annually
to its community for the free service
it renders. AS constant booster and
promoter of local news or information
it is indispensable.
"Did you ever stop to think what
you would do without your home pap
er? This is not an idle question.
What would you do If your town paper
should indefinitely suspend publica-
tion?
I'VE have to have our town news
paper. We want to know what other
felix's in the country are doing, The
most interesting information in the
world is knowledge of what other peo-
pie are doing. Let's help our COM
munity by helping our local editor in
his work. We cannot dispense with
his service. On the other hand, he
needs more of our moral and material
