The letter from Senator Gallinger
reads:
My dear Mrs. Gait:
Urgent official business has kept
me from saying to you what had in
mind in relation to the progress of
Gus parts of the country. l now want
to congratulate you on the fact that
North Dakota seems to have Joined
the other states that have extended
to women the right Of suffrage, and
that in other states the movement is
gaining great headway The magnifi-
cent work that you and your associ-
ates have done is bearing. fruit all
along the line, the indications being
that the time is not far distant when
our entire country will recognize the
Efact that women have the same rights
as men in the matter of exercising the
vote.
With high regard and good wishes.
know me to be.
Sincerely yours.

Cummins follows:
My dear Mrs. Gait:
congratulate you heartily upon
your recent victory in North Dakota.
and I sincerely hope that other states.
which can under their constitutions
give women tho right to vote for presi :
Dental electors and for municipal Of
fees. will speedily fall into line I am
only sorry that Iowa cannot by lcgis-
| lation. do something in that direction.
Unfortunately. we must Wal! until the
constitution is amended. II seems to
me that it is Of great Importance that
the campaign be prosecuted in every
available field. While am in favor of
the proposed suffrage amendment to
the constitution Of the United States.
it would be fatal to suspend activities
in the states. Wherever partial suf-
frage can be had through legislation.
it ought to be urged, and wherever
state constitutions can he amended
the movement should embrace that ef-
fort
My very best efforts go with you in
your great and worthy undertaking.
Yours cordially,

Sentenced a Boyhood Friend.

When they went to school together
they called each other Jim and AL.
But when they met in the Wyandotte
county district court 1t was Judge A.
j. Herrod and james Sexton, confessed
check forger. The Judge looked down
from the bench ut the prisoner, who
fumbled his hat and looked ut the
floor. Jim had admitted to AL that
he had forged the name of Daniel
Stumpf to eight checks he c;lslled at
the Commercial National bank, Kansas

judge said. They turned to lead Jim

James Engle, former judge of thu
Randolph county circuit court, was
once called on to defend, at Winches-

had shot an invader. The only posi-

the point where the defendant was on

A Mild Threat.

The following story of the late DR.
Timothy Dwight appeared recently in
the daily press. In his early days
when he was tutor in charge of stu
dent discipline ut Yale, u sort of proc
tor, apparently, he was called out OF
his room by some midnight cscapade
He was obliged us matter Of duty
to pursue the disturbers, and with his
long legs he soon found himself gain

solemn voice rang out suddenly into
the night:

faster, shall be obliged to Overtaks
you!"-louth's Companion.

1t is a little bit like saying IF you

rai,ns uwelve states being already

of appealing to every individual voter
the task would be discouraSlng en-.
ough. but when you consider the dill.
culties of amending state constitu.
toms. that method is seen to DC hope
less.
Eleven states require for approva
of an amendment to their constitu.
tions. majority of all votes cast al
the election.
In New Hampshire AN amcndmen,

tional convention and requires fol
ratification two thirds Of all votes
cast.
New Mexico can submit an amend
ment only by votes of three fourths
members of each house and must
secure three -fourths OF the votes cast
to ratify.
indiana requires 4 majority of the
votes of all the qualified electors OF
the state. The constitution of Indiana
has never been amended.
These are only few of the nony
handicaps, not to speak Of the possi-
bility for fraud in a general cleo
ton.
When we take our measure before q
legislature. the members must go on
record for or against and the fight is
more dignifed and above board. More
over, the electorate is surely Il nation
al question. An alien naturaized in
one state is citizen in any state. Our
national constitution says "l'ull faith
and credit shall be given i'm each state
to the public acts. records and judicial
proceedings of every other state.'
Is it not therefore manifestly unjust
for n woman to be DISTINGUISHED when
duty calls her out of n suffrage state
With the federal amendment now
before congress. suffragists all over
the United States are concentrating
their influence upon that body.
North Dakota has the proud distinc-
ton of having all it's representatives
in the United States congress. except
Senator McCumber. already pledged
to the Susan B. Anthony amendment,
and with presidential suffrage granted
to the women of this state, even he
may hear their voice.

are YOUEFFlC|ENT?
HERE Is A TEST WHICH MAY BE
OF INTEREST.
Anyway It's One Which Very Few
Persons Find 1t Easy to Master,
So Don't Be Distressed II You
Should Fail.

Are you efficient? The awful query
refuses to down. The clocks tick it,
the fiat wheels in the subway thump
it, the INCREASED curves Of the ele.
waited screech it. If you are an old
business fogy, the question burns in
the eye Of every plying employee.
You find your wife measuring the
distance from the range to the kitch-
en- cabinet and your son computing the
power necessary to propel football
in the lowest arc. The telephone COM
pany advises you to give your name
instead of saying "Hell0."
Blessed be the concrete Of thought,
II not of heed. Concreteness enables
you to see just what the efficiency
master mean. One Of them, William
Fretz Kemble, tells in Industrial
Management "How to Test Your EN-
ployees." OF course, every man who
reads it will first test his most inn
portant employee, his fathers son.
Watch with pad and pencil are oil
that is needed to acquaint yourself
with your virtues and faults. In 30
seconds answer as many Of these qaes.
tons as you can:
Give the name of vegetable, a
metal, an insect, reptile, a fish, a
man, q woman, an ocean, lake, q
town.
If at the end of the half minute
you have written only 'beet, gold,
flea, adder" you are pretty poor. If
you have also put down trout,
Hughes, Pickford, Atlantic" you are
up to human average of eight an
swers. If you feel that you can go
beyond ten answers, you may describe
the color of water, tea, beer, ivory,
the sky, grass, milk, chalk, coal and
skin. But men who 60 beyond Is
answers in 80 seconds are rare; they
should have secretaries, limousines and
big black cigars.
Next try to answer five difficult
questions in 20 seconds.

"Mackensen."
2. What is the most powerful force
in the world?
Perhaps love isn't. but it's shorter
word than militarism.
3. What is the greatest modern dis
covery?
Quick, man! Radium will do.
4. What is the greatest necessity Of
commerce?
Secretary Redfield probably would
not answer that in less than 1880
words. You perhaps will write "ships''
or railroads" and pass on to the
last:
S. What is the cheapest food for the
human race?
Bread, unless you are fiend for
lentils or employed by the makers of
fluted oat-corn. But you ought to an

fewer, it indicates "slowness or de-
