Law Of ARKANSAS
DECLARED VALID
Iron Mountain Must Pay
Finss for Violating Stat
ute at Hot Springs.

Washington. April 4.--The Arkan-
sas full crew law, requiring railroads
to use crews of six men while switch
ing in terminals, was upheld by the
United States supreme court in de-
cision handed down yesterday.
On February 90. 1913. the lcgisla-
ture. of Arkansas passed an act pro-
viding that in city terminals no
switch crew CT crews should be OPP
Grated with less than one engineer,
one fireman, one foreman and three
helpers. The law was made applica-
Bile to first and second class cities
and railroads having total mileage
of less than 1G0 miles were exempted
from it's terms. Each violation of
the law was made a separate of1ense
punishable by penalty of $50. The
effect of the law was to add an extra
switchman to each switching crew.
The state instituted suit agalns
the St Louis, Iron Mountain 4 South
ern railway to collect penalty for
an alleged offense committed at HOT
Springs, Arkansas.
The railroad demurred to this pro-
ceeding, holding that the law was uh-
constitutional because its terms were
discriminatory and it denied the rail-
road in question the equal protection
of the law. The railroad commended
that the enforcement of the act also
resulted in an interference with IN
terstate commerce. 1t was also de-
clared to be unreasonable and also
to hold out the possibility for the rail-
road of having excessive fines I'M
posed. Upon these allegations the
high court was asked to declare 1t IN

reed Out Your Hogs Six Weeks Earlier.
In every lot of hogs on feed two or
three weeks quickly and actually eat
less than others. If all would fatten
like these, the entire drove would be
ready for the market six weeks earlier
and to save six weeks feed is an item
that you fully understand.
The hog that fattens easily must be
in prime physical condition. The B. A.
Thomas Hog Powder is a conditioner
for hogs. 1t keeps their system clean
and healthy and enables them TO fatten

It's straight medicine, and we took the

A CIVIC HALL

What an excellent thing it would be
| if Moscow possessed city hall large
enough to accommodate for enter
| tainment about 500 or 500 persons. If
our young people, under proper direc-
ton and supervision, could have some
public place in which to gather for
their good times; if our chamber of
commerce had access to an assembly
room capable of seating all those who
like to show their interest in the
work of the organization on public
occasions; if the city had an auditor
ium to which it could invite the
smaller conventions that are increas-
ing in number year by year and that
are often of size which would make
entertainment of them here quite
easy If we had suitable room owned
by the municipality If all these
things could be provided how conven-
lent it would be and how much of
what is most worth while it would
add to the citys life and tone.
Schools and churches do much and
have done much to supply to the
municipality the quarters which the
city lacks, but no church in Mos
COW and no school is likely to have
equipment adequate for the purpose;
and there are always numerous draw
backs to such an arrangement.
Dreams do no harm and sometimes |
carry with them powerful suggestions
that afterward are made realities. 1t |
will not hurt us to dream of the
time when Moscow's city government
will have under it's management sat
municipal building which
shall contain a swimming tank or
plunge, gymnasium rooms, dining
-oom and kitchen, auditorium, and
)ther quarters adapted to public un-
and enterprises.

she does not need to feel despair be-
cause the city council, the school
board; the county, the legislature, and
the state are, ostensibly, all run ex-
clusively by men. The woman vo-e
in Idaho is something that every pol
itician has got his eye fastened on
and every one of them is lying awake
nights to hunt up platform Which
will definitely capture the women or
at least keep them quiet Keeping
the women quiet in Idaho is a colos
sal industry, and the size of it DEM
onstrates the real if not the apparent,
power of woman suffrage.
And about ten years from now, if
things go on as they have been going
the past ten years, the women may
decide that it is worth while for them
to show the men how to manage the
mechanics of politics, too. When the
women get tired of being snubhed,
there won't be any trouble about get
ting some representatives in the city
council, the board of county commits
sioners, the school board, the legiSla-
ture, the state house, the conventions.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE IN IDAHO

A good many of the anti-suffragist
workers in the middle west and east
are using the state of Idaho as an
example to show that woman suf-
frage has accomplished nothing and
that the women of Idaho have no
the women of other states. Super
ficially this is true. The men in
Idaho have never yet in any commun-
ity even made a pretence that the
women are to be consulted in the
matter of running politics. If you
were to attend a primary convention,
islature in Idaho, you would never
see anything to suggest that you were
not in one of the unenlightened anti
suffrage states. Occasionally, as
sort of sop to a feminine Cerberus,
tie men throw a bone in the shape of
a harmless office or two to the women
years ago they did what they could to
take all the power away from the one
state office which public sentiment
rather dictates shall be given to a
woman. If there is any way to make
women office holders still more of q
figure head that plan will probably BE
put through during the coming legis-
lature. That's the tendency of the
times in Idaho. Women in politics
are getting less prominent, less in
the public eye all the time.
But after all, this mechanical bust
ness of being precinct, county, state, |
or national chairman, of holding OF
fee, of choosing delegates of writing
platforms, and of carrying on all the
other political affairs which is the
very breath of life to hordes of men
this is not ALL it is not even the i'm
portant part, of government.
Though they are constantly showed
out of the limeight by the men pol
iticians of Idaho, the women of Idaho.
by the very fact that they do hold the
power to vote, are a tremendous force. I
