FEMALE SUFFRAGE

The idea of making the question of
female suffrage political Issue is one
of the most absurd propositions
which has come into the present po-
litical campaign. The first female
suffrage bill which became a law was
introduced in the legislature of Wyo-
ming by Thomas Murrin a democrat
and was passed by a legislature that
was nearly all democrats. Suppos-
ing that it was made a strict party is
sue how many years would it take
to obtain a two thirds membership
in the United States senate and house
of representative to pass resolution
to that effect by the republicans. The
only effect the attempt to make it a
party issue will be to kill all hopes
of ever making it part of the con-
stitution,
Never before in the history of this
country in the space of four years
was so much legislation in behalf of
the common people enacted as has
been placed upon the federal statute
books under the leadership of Presi-
dent Wilson. If any on the Hughes
supporters are in any doubt about
this, they should consult the record.
IT would be mighty interesting read
ing and probably have more or less
effect upon some OF the Doubling
Thomases in the ranks of the oppo-
sition. President wilson has far ex-
ceeded expectations in his remarkable
legislative achievements along the
lines of Justice and fair, play. Surely
the people are coming into their own
through the applied wisdom and keen
discernment of Woodrow Wilson and
future generations will sing his
praises.
In practically all the places where
straw votes have been taken on the
candidates for president. President
Wilson has shown up far in the lead
even in Republican strongholds. As
the days pass and election time ap.
proaches il is clearly seen that the
occupant of the White House is rap.
idly gaining strength and that he will
no doubt be the winner by great odds
President Wilson is especially popu.
lar among laboring people everywhere
and those who toll will not forget
their friend on election day.
The supreme court has just decid-
ed that the common law rule in re-
gard to the rights Of riparian owners
of waters and the banks along
streams does not apply abrogating
the common law called the California
rule which has been adopted by most
of the Pacific states and as far east
as Colorado. The common law rule
still applies in all of the eastern
states.

1t is most gratifying to union labor
that the poll of railroad workers in
the various centers of industry finds
them overwhelmingly for Wilson. In
Cincinnati the poll places the ratio at
FIVE to one; in Milwaukee at eight to
one. These polls plainly show that
the unions realize President Wilson
has been fair to them and they pro-
pose to be fair to President Wilson

THE VALUE OF TRUTH

Truth in business is Just as important
as truth in everyday life; truth creates
confidence, establishes goodwill and
builds reliability that will not be
wrecked by the storms of competition.

have learned to place reliance on the
advertised words of SCOTS Emulsion,
because they are untarnished, unex-
aggerated truisms about a household
remedy of real and actual worth.
The popularity of SCOTS Emulsion
is increasing as intelligence advances,

GEN. PERSHING
FOUGHT Indians
OF SOUTHWEST

Southwest fighting is not new
thing for Gen. John J. Pershing, for
he fought Indians during 10-year
stay along the border when they were
not so gentle as they now are. Ac.
cording to the Review of Reviews for
April that experience gave him pre-
cisely the seasoning and equipment
for the work with which he is now
intrusted.
THAT decade of soldering includ-
ed" says the magazine, in addition
to the pacification of the Apaches.
the adjustment Of difficulties between
the whites and hostile Zunis In Ari-
iona, and participation In the last In
dian campaign that our army has
been called upon to make = that
against the Sioux in 1890-91. All in
all, when Pershfng was ordered East
in 1896, he had seen about every form
of active service that was possible at
that period for any officer of our
army. Furthermore, he had learned
the nature of that whole region. and,
by coming to close quarters with our
Indian problem In some OF its most
acute aspects, he had found out how
to cope with the hostile movements
OF savage enemy In his own habitat.
All this experience was in later years
to bear fruit in a distant part Of the
world, where our government and our
army Unexpectedly came into new and
strange responsibilities and duties.

GOING TO MAKE GOOD
Audubon County Young Man VIII,
Has Splendid Business Qualification


The county board of supervisors at
their first meeting of the new year
on Monday, January 3, made the APP
pointment of county engineer, the
position being given to c. ID. Fors-
beck of Audubon. Mr.. Forsbeck was
here to meet with the board on Mon
day and has accepted the appoint
ment and will take up his work at
once.
He is a graduate of Ames of the
year 1908 and has served for four
years as county engineer of Audubon
county. Prior to his work for that
county he had a considerable amount
of experience in railroad and NUM-.
cipal engineering work, so that he
comes we'll qualified for the work OF
which he will have charge in this
county.
Mr.. Forsbeck says that he is here
to work for the people Of Montgom'
cry county and to fulfill their wishes
as nearly as it is possible for him
to do so. He is a believer in good
roads and promises that something
worth while along that line will be
done If the people of the county will
stand behind him.
1.-THE county engineer and the
board of supervisors alone can't &C
complish the desired ends toward the
establishment of good roads," SAID
Mr. Forsbeck, but the people of the
county must put a shoulder to the
wheel and help push the good worl
along. Nor can the desired amount
of work in the county be accomplish
ed all at once. 1t will take time

REPUBLICAN CONVENTION GALL

The PRONUNCIATION Of the formal
call for the republican national con-
vention which is to meet in Chicago
June z, next, is attracting attention
to the revised delegate apportionment
adopted last year ana now incorpor-
ated into II for the r1r.t time. By
this apportionment the total number
of delegates is reduced by ninety-three
practically all the shrinkage coming
in the southern state representation,
whose influence inthe party delibera-
lions will be proportionately curtailed.
The insular possessions ere accorded
two delegates each, but without vot-
ing power, but will, it is understood,
appeal to the convention tc restore
them to full rights and privileges.
The noteworthy thing about this
call is that it is the first and only sub
stantial step made by any political
party in the direction of more equit-
able apportionment. AS a progressive
measure for popular rule, this repub-
licun innovation outdoes the democra-
tic party, and the progressive party,
too, for that matter, neither of which
have made any change in the ancient
and inherited system which both have
so roundly denounced.
Attention is also being called to the
fact that the republican Calls broad
invitation not only to republicans,
but also to "all other electors with
out regard to past political affilia-
lions who believe in the principles of
the republican party and endorse its
policies" to unite in the choice of
convention delegates. There is notn-
ing new or novel, however, in this
phraseology, for it has been copied
in every republican convention call
since the organization of the party.
In other words, the republican party
is, and always has been, a truly pro-
gressive party, built on common
belief in principles and policies re-
gardless of previous political differ
ences. 1t is party national and not
sectional and with an open door-and
this is it's strength and It's promise.
