Fight for Our Homes

The great political parties have this year put wo-
man suffrage into their platforms
This was not because the great OF the Repub-
lcans and Democrats believe that putting women into
politics will benefit the women, anybody else but be-
cause they wanted get rid of the pesterng of the suf
fragists Neither party intends to carry out that plank
of the platform But all the it does advertise the
suffrage idea.
Let us look at that idea.
Civilization has proceeded thus for on the idea that
the family is the unit in the State Each wife rules in her
home and she is represented in the government by her
husband and her other folks And this representing
of the folks has been OF the stimulating duties
Of men.
The sufragists say 1--WE won't trust folks
to represent We won't try to influence and
brothers and husbands we'll them by the vote"
So suffrage dssoves the family and makes the in
divdual the unit in the State-every and every
man out for number one.
Each wife is to be solicited to oppose her husband
in politics Each girl is to be brought up With the idea
that to hold some Office is the big thing in life
Many other things tend to destroy the family
People hesitate to form union for life, and make
marriage only temporary partnership. We recently
said to OF the great sufragists, How will suffrage
affect the famlyl The reply was, "The family is de-
stroyed already
Every husband who was married on the present basis
who took wife the understanding that she elected
him to be her representative in political affairs has
right the sufragists for alternating his wifes aec
tons.
No doubt people live without matrimony
Many people have done But believe the best
life is in the natural home, in which the and the
are equal but each with his and her peculiar duties
Where there are such homes the children will be the best
And the nation in which women play their part
men will be the strongest nation. We believe that suf-
age "a reform against nature, and propose to fight
for the old fashioned home

Mexican waters. The clash at Mazat-

According to this report, which
came from Commander Arthur q.

bluejackets we're not permitted to land

land were made prisoners. They are

WORLD NEWS
RUSSIANS STILL ADVANCE

The Russian war office reports
that in the last thirteen days no.
900 prisoners have fallen into their
hands. The forward drive of the
Russian armies in Volhynia, Galicia,
and Bukowina has not yet met with
effective opposition, and the Aus
trians are rapidly falling back.
Czernowitz, very important Aus
trian city, has fallen into the Cars
hands, despite the desperate
resistance offered by its defenders.
This Russian drive seems to have
relieved the pressure of the German
forces on the French fortress OF
verdun, since it is reported from
Petrograd that many German troops
have been taken from the western
front TO aid the Austrians in their
defense of Galacia. The French
report that all the German attacks
on Verdun have been successfully
repulsed with great losses to the
Teutons.

that the Mexican executive will back
down long before anything like gen

The presidents close friends appear
to be relying on information which
they have received that the Mexican
population as q whole IL more apa-

that the anti-American feeling has
been largely the work of professional
agitators.
In view Of this attitude assumed by

said, that from now on the program

velopments in Mexico. For that rea-

No estimate has yet been submit

probable cost OF mobilizing the ma

federal service with pay. As soon RS
such an estimate is available, how
ever, congress will be asked to pass
an emergency appropriation bill to
cover the expense. II is known that

Chicago, Feb. 21.-Wheat dropped to-

here and in the northwest. Opening
prices, which ranged from A@A to 2
@2Rc down, with May at $1.25A to
$1.27 and July at $121h to s1.22, were
followed by a slight decline.
Decided breaks ensued on lack of ex-
port buying. The close was unsettled,

$1.245s OK and July at $1.20h.
Big arrivals weakened corn. More
than LOO car loads reached Chicago.
After opening u to 11sc lower, the
market underwent moderate further
sag. T
Bullish estimates of the Argentine
exportable surplus helped afterward to
steady the market The close was easy
at 5s a n to q q &c net decline.
Oats turned downgrade with corn
and wheat. Pit traders. however, were
buyers on the decline. ..
Higher prices on hogs strengthened
provisions. Besides, exports for the
