mrs. Laird WOULD have
WOMEN prepare FOR Vote

At the March meeting Of the Will
nington Equal Suffrage Association
leld recently. paper. entitled, "a
Plea With Sunragists." written by
Mrs. William H. Laird, was read by
Mrs Frederick Bringhurst. The paper
aroused a great deal Of interest. It
lealt with the suffrage question in a
concise and entertaining way. Tn the
course Of her paper Mrs. Laird said:
"When woman was the slave OF man,
MS chattel and plaything, might was
sight. and woman had no right what
soever. Now that woman has been
given a broader vision and service for
which she fits herself by equal odu-
,ation and in assuming her burden
Of equal taXauOn-her right has been
established for equal suffrage.
"As 20 her quality Of service to the
state in time % war--a supposedly
strong argument by the Anti-party-
hey are quite right IN their conten-
ion that there should be an equality
of support given by both men and
Home1 in time Of war
And who has furnished the great
armies OF the past. and in this fearful
International slaughter OF the present?
THE women. On whom does the
great sorrow OF the nations fall with
such leaden might? The women. The
athers, sons, brothers and husbands
suffer. yes. fearfully, but IL is the suf-
'ering Of the body. Let us first place
I wreath OF love and honor for the
nero left dead or more than dead
ipon the battlefield. but the most
precious tribute of praise must go TO
he wife and mother left behind. Any
one who knows what mental agony
means will appreciate how much
greater is the cup OF suffering which
las been placed 20 the lips Of the
women. The mothers who have en-
lured the agony OF life-giving; who
have watched and cared for and rear
cd the growing boys for years, now
see this fair harvest of outstanding
manhood. so rich in promise, ruthless
y shattered Are not these mothers
represented i'm these vast armies
Mrs. Laird also pointed ont the
necessity OF clingng to womanhood's
truest ideals and urged that each
woman prove herself equal to men in
service that they might, through wOm-
an. catch glimpses Of the Divine ma
ture."
In conclusion. she said
"The call comes clear and ringing
TO each woman. not for equal suffrage
for that must come shortly whether
we wish it or not. but for each woman
10 look into her life and prepare her
self for her added responsibility. She
must rouse up her dormant soul, and
see that the spark of Divinity be
blown into a flame knowledge oi
itself will not purify the world. Il is
not among the literau that we find
our highest living ideals. Pictures ol
crime do not prevent criminality. In
spiration must come from above. The
waters must flow from higher source
before they can reach a higher level.
Suffrage can never give life to the
body polite. If the waters be muddy
they will make viscid, unhealthy
flood when added to the anything bu
pure waters of the present politica
stream.

ieteS as compensation. Further the 'ohstltutlonality of the new law is to pS tested before the supreme court, Whose decision will be watched with Widespread interest
 general business has slowed down somewhat, bank clearings now run nlng only about 20 per cent. ahead of last year, as against 40 and 50 per cent. ahead a few weeks ago. Never tkeless, trade has been more active than usual at this season; and, as summer draws to a close, all indica- uons point to an active fall trade A
 most important factor in this connec- tlon is the immensely increased pur- chasing abilities of the masses, result lug from the active employment of many classes of labor at unusually nigh wages, particularly those en- gagged in the making or handling of munitions. The war, the stoppage of emigration and the great demand for hands in many plants have created a serious scarcity of labor; the res V being that labor as class is unprece- dentedly prosperous and inclined to spend freely and demand still higher wages. The strikes of today are in cited by prosperity and not by wage reductions; they are a part of the general inf1ationary movement Which is spreading over the whole world, and which has apparently not yet run ite full course. One of the results of che war has been to imm ensely stirnu- late the industrial activity that would in any event have developed in this country, though in a much less degree. This war stimulus will extend for some time yet, some authorities say ing the war will last for another year at least. The progress of the Allies is exceedingly formidable, but slow; and the resisting powers of the Gen. tral Powers are doubtless much greater than commonly supposed; as the Allies progress, the more desper- ate the resistance they will have to encounter. The manage of our in- dustrial plants are, therefore, calcu- lating upon a continuance of this all- powerful stimulus of war orders, which in turn induces continued heavy exports, huge trade balances, gold imports and further foreign credits, loans or bond issues. For an- other year at least, New York promises to be the only free money market in the world, and this means a further pro1ongation of financial, in dustrial and commercial activity, in- creased to still higher degree by an enormous gold supply and the new banking system, both of which have permitted a huge but sound expansion of credit. Beyond question, the war

most uncOmmOn1y tumultuOuS Hun garian parliament. The Karolyi, Ap- ponyi, Justh and Andrassy parties, but more especially Karolyl and Justh, hurled accusation after accusation at Tisza that the Hungarian nation had been deceived and miSled to the imrninence of the Rumanian entrance into the war and charged that the gov ernment and it's diplomacy had been the dupe of Rumanian cunning, which had brought so much misery, suffer- ing and loss to the people of the rich est sections of Hungary; where thOus- ands of refugees were suddenly com pelled to flee before the unexpected invasion when resting secure under Tisza's assurances of August 24. Count Czernin, the AustrO Hungarian minis ter at Bucharest, was called a traitor Count Tisza, for his part, fankly ad- mitted that every branch in the gov ernment, diplomatic and military, had been misled and deceived by Rou- mania. He fell back upon the Ire Hance placed in kings word' and expressed the hope that with Gods help Roumania would not escape it's fate" Count Tisza appealed for unity on the part of the Hungarian people in this grave hour and in that was se- conded by Counts Apponyi and An- drassy despite their scathing criti- cisnl.

until credit contraction is enforced;
 either through exhaustion or the close
 of the war; which would permit Eu- rope to recall a portion of it's gold
 For the time being the war is quite powerful enough to offset an unsatis- factory harvest, a disturbed labor situation, a threatening political cam paign and a flood of anxieties which concern the managers of big business. There are quite enough problems awaiting solution to sober unreason- ing enthusiasm; nevertheless, the gen. eral business outlook is promising, credit is sound and confidence in the future is undisturbed.
 On the Stock Exchange there has been a strong outbreak of bullish ac- tivity, based of course upon con- ditions noted above and backed by powerful leadership in a few issues, n )tably United States Steel and Mer- cantile Marine. It must also be noted that the public buying of stocks has been greatly reinforced by an in- f1uential and new class of buyers; namely, those who have made large profits as a result of the war. The investm buying of this class has been a factor of considerable impor- tance, having materially 1essened the

New York, Sept. 9.-The financial markets show remarkable reslstlhg power against adverse news. Nelther the threatened strike of the railroads st week nor the attempted tieup Of transportation in New York city this week exerted any noticeable effect upon the stock exchange. The con- sessions demanded by railroad labor created surprisingly little alarm, probably because of belief that pres ent trade activity would largely com nensate the railroads for increased outlays and that net earnings, though diminished, would not seriously suffer. In the case of the railroads, if was noted that the new arrange roents for an eight-hour law did not % into effect until January 1st; that ite effect was to be studied by the government, and that if really in- furious to the railroads the Interstate commerce Commission might be in duced to grant them an advance in

supply of desirable issues, and being also @ strong factor in the present speculative movement. There was much enthusiasm on the advance and some shares have risen to a point where profit taking on an increasing scale must be expected. Congress has closed, and the next session will be a brief one ending March 4th, during which no important legislation is 1ike- iy to be attempted. The presidential campaign will undoubtedly be mora intense than anticipated a few weeks ago, and a free popular discussion on many of the new issues agftating the public mind will undoubtedly be a striking feature. Such discussion will at least. serve the purpose of clarify- ing the political atmosphere and fa- cilitating a better Judgment of the trend of public opinion for the next four years. Speculative interest cen- ters chiefly upon the industria1s owing to their sustained profits and the probability of their benefiting by prolongation of the war. The rail- roads are enjoying big traffic, often taxing their facilities to the utmost consequently reports of current earn ings are very satisfactory.

Atlantic City, N. J., Sept. 9.-Presi- dent Wilson made an address last night to the crowds of delegates and

 Immediately the 4,OO0 women in the New Nixon theater stooG and ohesred. A few minutes later Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, honorary presi- dent of the association, with MT. Wilson still present, declared: "We have waited long enough to get the vote. We want it noS-v I want it to come during your admins tration."

Reading, Coppers and Industrials
 All Rise in Buoyant Market

New York, Sept. 9.-Today's broad and very active two hour session was indicative of something more construc- tive than the customary weekend settlements of professional contracts. Discouraging crop conditions, which caused some irregula rity in yesterdays late trading, were wholly ignored, eX- cept for moderate restraint in grang- CTS. This was more than offset by decided strength in other quarters. United States Steel rose over three points to new high record. Reading made is highest quotation of the year at 112 1-2. Coppers, industrials of various descriptions and unclassified specialties registered two to five point gains at the buoyant close. Bonds were steady.
 United States Steel made the new high record of 102 on the Stock Ex- change this morning, an overnight gain of more than two points and ex- ceeding it's previous record by almost a point Other industrial issues were very strong, as also were the coppers and leading rails, although Grangers were sluggish on yesterdays unfaV- orable government crop report.
