The Voting Women.
From THE Progress Of the World in the
American Review of Reviews.

From ''The Progress of the World in the
American Review of Reviews.
As regards this very interesting aues
ton of the woman vote, we nave the
Illinois records. In that great state
women have now voted for, the first
time in a presidential year and their
ballots are counted separately. Mr..
Hughes has an Illinois plurality of
about 10000 over Mr.. Wilson. The
vote OF women is divided in almost ex-
actly the same ratio az the vote of men.
Thus the influences that bring about
popular action in politics AFFECT the
minds OF men and women in similar
degree. This seems to have been quite
as true in California and Kansas as in
Illinois. 1t is possible that the women

by what they regarded asfthe attitude
of the Mormon church authorities.
There are no facts as yet that su1fi-
GENTLY prove any Of the various state
ments made as to the swing OF the
women's vote in one direction or in the
other. Two states last month voted on
the question of extending the. suffrage
to women. these being South Dakota
and West Virginia. In both states the
proposal was rejected.

INSTRUCTION IN
 CANNING AT ALMA

MESA, June 21.-Prof Alma M. , Davis, principal of the Alma school and
 in charge of the canning clubs of that district, extended an invitation to the
 women of the Mesa section to attend a canning demonstration at the Alma
 school this afternoon at ? o'clock Prof. Leland $. Parke of the University Of Arizona and head of the Boys and Girls clubs for the state, will be present and give the demonstration. EFT Parke
 is an acknowledged expert in this line
 and has been of immense benefit to the
 boys and girls over the state. The meeting this afternoon is primarily
 for the canning clubs but because of the national demand for the conServa-
 tion of all foods that can be saved by
 canning, it is urged that women ot
 this section avail themselves of what
 ever information may be derived from the demonstration.
 Any one bringing a small amount of
 fruit or vegetables, say two pintS, with , the sugar and jar may have the Spe- | cimen canned. This offer is made for l the purpose of aiding those who may
 have a quantity of the article brought
 ana which they desire to can. Futher- more in this connection, MT. Davis can 1 be reached by phone and will be pleased ! to aid in any way possible ny suggest- | ions as to the conservation of food i stuffs under his department. There are government bulletins covering each ar l ticle. the length of time it should be
 cooked the amount of sugar to use, etc Details as to these pamphlets may be secured from MT. Davis.

SARGENT FARES ADVOCAED FOR
 BOSTON

President Brush of the Boston (Mass.) Elevated railway has told the legislative committee which is cOnsid ering the companys economic status that Scent fares must come as the ultimate solution of Boston's transpor tation problem. This is probably the first time that this statement has been made positively at public hearing by the official of any large city railway system. Six-cent fares have been adopted on some suburban lines, but there has been an undercurrent of feel ing among many railway officials that another cent would be too much of demand to make and would also pre- sent difficulties of collection. These two objections. however, do not seem so great on cOnsidera ton. The increase it is true, amounts to 20 per cent. but a great many articles which the pub lie has to buy have increased in price more than 20 per cent during this per iod. The same, of course. is true in regard to the materials which the rail way companies have to buy.
 As for the difficulties of collecting a 6-cent fare. d conductor may be obliged to make a little more change. but with prepayment operation there is reason to believe that people will be as ready to supply themselves with coppers as with nickels, and put 6 cents in the box without asking the assistance of the conductor as they are now to put in , cents. Finally, there should be no mechanical difficulty in making fare box to register the extra cent. In civil war times the fare on q great many roads was cents. and in this era of high prices cents for a

MILL WILL BE
 STARTEDSOON

Almost to a day the Arizona Molb- denum company will be in readiness to begin actual production at the time forecast when the company was for mally incorporated less than one month ago. It was then stated that July l would see the completion of the mill and the placing of the producing end of the plant in full operation. Yester- day H. H. Temple, secretary treasurer of the company, returned by the pro- perties located nine miles northwest of Wickenburg in the Blue Tanks district and announced that with the exception of some small minor parts of the neces sary machinery, everything was in readiness to begin actual operation.
 One week ago a 25 h. D. FooS engine was shipped from this city to the property. A building had already been completed for its housing Today the engine is installed and has been given preliminary tests. The mine buildings, not only for the housing of the machin cry are completed, but the necessary structures to provide living quarters for the men, have also been constructed and fitted for the reception of the force that will be employed
 Within the past few days L. E. Hu- Der, an expert on rare metals and one of the best known mining engineers of the west, accepted the position of su- perintendent of the milling end of the operation of the plant. He is already on the ground and is tuning up the plant in anticipation of the first run. There is more than a two weeks sup ply of ore on the dump ready for the fifty ton mill, while quantities of rich ore has already been blocked out.
 Conservative estimate of the content of the ore places it at an average of three per cent. although large blocks. of the ore is known to run as high as fifteen and twenty per cent. Samples of the ore are now on exhibition at the office of MT. Temple, at West Adams street, indicate the higher per centage. In fact there are many samples in which almost pure molybdenum ap- pears.
 It is seldom that any mining com pany incorporates under brighter pros poets. Seldom does a company begin actual operations within one month of it's organization. But that is what is promised in the case of the Arizona Molybdenum company. And while the company is capitalized at $500. 900. with 500,0 900 shares, but a limited number of these shares are to be offered, and then only for the purpose of financing the expense incidental to the beginning of operations.
 Another feature of the operations of the company is in the fact that mar ket for its concentrates is already in waiting. F. W. Libbey, of the Arizona Assay Office, and partner of the late J. $. Neall, one of the best known and most reliable assayists of the country. has been commissioned to purchase all the concentrates of the company. He
Arizona republican., 1917-06-27

has already contracted for the. cree tion at Wickenburg of a suitable build ing for storing the concentrates pur- chased by him from the Arizona Molyb- denum company. He has made an offer for the present of g. per pound for fifteen per cent concentrates. The mill to be placed in operation next week will turn out fifteen per cent concen- trates as it now stands, and the mem- bers of the company expect to increase this percentage to at least twenty in a short time. This will mean q higher price for the concentrates based on the present market value of the pro- duct
 It is estimated that on a basis of the low average of three per cent attrib- uted to the mine run of the ore. that the fifty ton mill will have daily pro- duction of concentrates representing a gross valuation of not less than S5, 900 at daily milling expense of less than $500.

POWER CONWAY
 NOW ENGINEER

F.. Power Conway returned yeSter- day from the officers training camp at the Presidio, San Francisco, having failed to pass the health test applied to all members of the camp But that does not mean that MT Conway will rot see service in the war He applied for a commission in the engineers corps. passed the examination and the papers have been forwarded to Wash ington.
 It was an interesting experience said MT. Conway, speaking of his life at the Presidio, and one that he would not have missed It was unlike anything in the military history of this or any other country Twenty-Five hundred men from widely separated parts of the country. men of fifty and men of l twenty, men of force and influence in their communities and men of no force at all, all thrown into the melting pot ] of discipline
 In the beginning, on account of the neWness of the experiment, there was some friction but that has been over ] come and the work is now proceeding smoothly and promises success It was i expected that there would be crowded 1 into the three months residence at the camp the military work taken in a four year course and it was with that ex- ! pectation that it was desired that men of education should be accepted for ! training so that no attention need be given to anything but military work.
 Since the organization of the train | ing camps, MT Conway said the gov | ernment has been informed by the British government that its selection of officers in the same manner was less successful than their selection from non commissioned officers from the ranks. In consequence, there. are now a great many such officers in the training camps. In line with this in- formation by MT. Conway. word ha s been received perhaps not officially that the war department has deter mined that future calls to officers
 training camps will he extended only to commissioned officers or tC men in the ranks
 Most of the men at the training , camp fell readily into the new life . and 1t was new to most of them: they had for the most part been masters o' |, their own movements to come and gC as they pleased. At the Presido they
 came under a most rigid routine They
 had no time of their own except few
 minutes at noon and a short time il the evening. though that was sup
 posed to be given to a continuation O
 thelr intensive military training. , All underwent the same course flo the first 30 days, after which the,
 were allowed to elect such branches O

 mean that they would serve in thos
 branches, though they are likely to d.
 so unless the one chosen by them is al ready filled. The cavalry is now pret

POTATOES OFFERED
 ID PREVENT WASTE

Because they were not graded in a manner suitable to make them market able through the regular channels. there remains in storage some 50 sacks o. firSt-class potatoes which are going to waste in a short time if not sold. There were 80 sacks in the lot and the dig gers put such d mixture in the sacks that the resultant pack could not be disposed of by ordinary methods. The potatoes are good though in each sack some too small for ordinary commercial sale are included.
 The matter has been called to the at tention of some of those interested in the prevention of food waste and an effort is being made to dispose of the potatoes before they are damaged. They are being offered at s2 a sack which is said to mean a financial loss of $1 on each sack. They can be seen at the Lightning Delivery warehouse, Fifth and Jackson streets.

SWEAR OFF STARCH FOR WAR
America Should Follow Enqiand's Ex-
 ample and Wear Soft Collars

The U-boat has started great re- form in England. Lord Davenport, the British food controller, has prohibited the manufacture of starch for laundry use. All the potatoes and corn that the United Kingdom can raise are now needed internally to stiffen up the re- sistance to the Germans and none can he spared for external purposes
 Thus Mars revokeS the dictates of La Mode and strikes off the shacSles that civilized man had not the courage to discard It is the very virtue of cloth that it should be soft and pliable to convert it into rattling, cracking amNiiferouS fabric resembling tinplate is to make it contradict itself. To bind the neck, most mobile of bodily articu lations, in band as of iron with saw teeth inside to sheathe the wrists in stiff cylinders. to board up the breast with a fiat. hard, smooth surface as though it were to serve as a screen for motion pictures; these are contrary to both art and Nature. and no one has ever attempted to justify them to the rational mind or to the esthetic sense.
 But comfort has always been subser- vient to fashion and conformity has CVerriden+ convenience. When there was q queen who wore her linen too long, the loyal ladies of her court used vel low starch. But this propensity to i'm itation gives us hope that America may share the benefit of England's en- forced fashion. London has set the form for gentlemen the world over. Our Tories turned up their trousers whenever it rained in London. arc since it usually rained in London, it became the custom here to have trous- CTS made with permanent cuffs.
 Let us once more initiate England and swear off starch for the war By so doing we would show our sympathy for our Anglican ally and add to the store of carbohydrates to be sent over sea. There are few cases of self sacri- flee that would cost us less and pay us better than this.-From the New York lndependent:
