most hardened sinner.

COTTONWOOD


(Chronicle)
Atty. Il. Il. Fogg and j. ]. Janasco
were in town Tuesday from Grange
vile on business connected with the
Bernatseder sale east of town.
There seems to be quite a bit of
petty stealing going on around town
this winter and several citizens have
reported losses ranging all the way
from stove wood to canned fruit and
turkeys. The culprits are pretty well
known and are liable to be brought
up with short turn If they continue
their operations.
Miss Cressie Lamb, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Il. ID. Lamb residing north
of town, is teaching her first term of
school In the Fletcher section this
winter
The mercury dropped down below
zero Tuesday night but the weather
moderated again Wednesday and is
just right at present. However, a
few inches of snow would be appre-
ciated.
A. w. Talkington, one of the old
political wheel horses of the Demo
cratic party in Idaho county, was in
town Monday from the county seat
looking up business in the real estate
and insurance line.
1t Is reported that the mercury
dropped to 20 degrees below zero at
the Bert Oliver farm northeast of
town one night last week and froze
everything in Berts frost proof cell
lar, as well as some things in the
house
b. A. Miller and family were In
town last Friday from Winona, hav-
ing made the run in from their farm
in an hour in their new Dodge car.
Mr.. Miller says the car puts them
lots nearer town than they were for
merly.
A. w. Dodel took over the rural
mail route Monday and will oper-
ate the route in future, he having
recently received his appointment as
rural mail carrier from the govern
ment He succeeds Andrew Rustic
meyer, who filled out the unexpired
portion of Harry Libbeys term.
The weather report for the month
or December, as recorded at the mon
astery west of town, is as follows !:
Maximum temperature, 40 degrees to
the Sth; minimum, 8 below zero on
the Both; total precipitation, 2.O5 in
ches; snowfall, IA inches.
The NeZperce high school basket
ball team wiped up the earth with the
local aggregation last Friday evening,
winning the game by a score of 81 to
IL. The visitors started scoring from
the moment the whistle blew and
scored almost at will throughout the
game. The team work of the visiting
team was perfect and, while the home
team put up a hard fight, it was sim
ply outclassed and played off its feet.
We doubt If there is a team in this
part of the state that can take the
measure of the Nezperce bunch.

decided to sell his common sheep and
go into the pure bred Cotswolds, for
the fleece is not only long and of good
grade but according to Mr.. Packer, is
very heavy. And a pure bred sheep
does not eat one bit more than q

The success Of the fair last week,
after the. shortness of preparation
and the investment Of a very small
amount of money shows our people
what we can do another year if we
take hold of the matter in time and
put up a reasonable sum to pay for
the premiums. The fair of last week
ought to be Immediately followed by
the organization Of a permanent
Fair Association and we hope that
it will be. The purpose Of a county
fair is strictly business and the ac-
companying carnival to give the
people amusement which they are
willing to pay for. What do our
merchants and other business men
say about it?

Up to October27, the amount SUBJ
scribed to aid in the reelection of
Woodrow Wilson to the presidency,
totaled $1,O06,283. One man Cleve-
land H. Dodge, has given $4,000
and a number made contributions
ranging from $4,000 to $4,000, but
the bulk of the money was in much
less sums. Mr.. Wilson himself gave
$1,000. The Memphis Commercial
Appeal has collected and forwarded
more than $4,000, but the Nash
vile Tennessean- and American
had time boosting its list to the
$1,000 mark. However it is but
fair to state that Nashville has al

raising money for educational and

There is no Democratic or farmer
opposition to Congressman Sims,
but there may be a few soreheads
who having failed to rule before the
primary, are mean enough to ruin
afterwards if they had the power.
There has not been in all the TWEEN
ty years of Mr.. Sims service in con-
gress, a single criticism of his votes
in behalf of Democracy and labor.
For every vote Mr.. Sims loses on
account of L. M. Rhodes having been
the pretty well paid president of
the Farmers Union, the present
Congressman will gain two for good
and sufficient reasons.

this week prints picture Of Chief
Justice Walter Clark, of North Caro-

anent the cause Of equal suffrage,
to which that eminent jurist has for
a number of years given his time
his eloquence and his influence.
We quote: The women bear the
burdens Of government even more
that the men. If there is lack of
sanitation. their children suffer and
and die. If public morals are not
guarded, the evils fall upon her sons.
If wars consume the youths of the
land, they suffer more than the
fathers. In all earnestness the
movement for equal suffrage is one
Of the great movements Of the age.

it goes. Even if John Overall could
be elected (and he does not stand a

that any honest man could have

In a recent editorial, the CONNER
cial Appeal raises this interesting
question:-"How will these women
(the millions newly franchised)
make up their mind as to to the
best way to vote-what process of
reasoning will open up the path be-
fore their feet" The writer seems to
regard the coming presidential cleo
ton as a test of a woman's ability
to prove that her interest in politics
is not merely a fad, but sincere
and earnest desire to perform her
duties by taking upon herself the
obligations as well as the benefits of
government: He cites an instance
of one woman about to cast her first
ballot, who answered promptly with
number Of well thought out rea-
sons for her choice for president,
and commenting on that, he goes so
far as to say: An intelligent thought
full woman's vote would mean much,
not only in helping to decide the
coming election, but in convincing
the country that women as a rule
are ready for the ballot, and that
their share in the country's politics
will be earnest and helpful"
The editor of the Commercial APP
peal has evidently been for some
months in the hopeful state Of giving
thoughtful and unprejudiced con-
sideration to the cause Of equal suf-
frage; but as usual with a man, he
has expected more Of women than
he would ever have dared to expect
fromamen. lie has demanded that
if suffrage is to stand, every woman
voter must cast her ballot only af-
ter thoughtful and earnest conside-
ration of both sides Of a question.
That, we grant, is an ideal condition,
sauce quite as ideal for The
& ,nder, as for the goose. But We
haven't yet reached the place whe.e
we may live amid ideal conditions,
and the proportion Of women VINO
cast ballots, truly independent, 0e-
cided wholly upon the merits of the
case, will be about the came as the
proportion of the men who cast such
ballots, except that for the first few
years, women will be forced to do
more thinking, not only to familiar
ize- themselves with their new pow
ers, but also, that they will be deter
mined to prove that they can make
good.
