SUFFRAG|STSARE
MUCH ENCOURAGED

Portland, Me, Jan. 16.-Anticipating
favorable action on Governor Milli-
kens recommendation to the State
Legislature to submit the question of
Woman Suffrage to the vote of the
people for decision, the executive COM
mittee of the Maine Woman Suffrage
Association met today at the home Of
the State president. Mrs. Arthur T. Bal
entine. The meeting was attended by
representatives of the National Wo-
man Suffrage ssociation of New York
City. 1t was decided that there seems
to be no disposition on the part of the
Republican majority in the Maine Leg
islature to eyade that section of the
State Republican platform, pledging
that this question shall be decided by
a referendum vote; and plans were
made to organize the State immedi-
ately, preparatory to the special cleo
ton which will probably be held in
september Of this year, at which time
tho question will be placed before the
voters of the State. Arrangements were
made for a suffrage mass meeting to
be held at the Pine street Methodist
church Thursday evening

J. P. BUCKLEY OPPOSES
CHANGING ELECTION OF
COM. OF AGRICULTURE

That the farmers of the State as a
whole are opposed to the plan Of the
choice of a commissioner of agricul-
ture by a commission of seven form
ulated at a recent meeting of delegates
from agricultural associations held in
this city was the statement made to-
day by John p. Buckley of Westbrook
former commissioner of agriculture.
Most of the farmers that l have
talked with feel that the department of
agriculture is already too close to the
experiment station and the College of
Agriculture and that it ought to aim to
serve more directly the real farmer
who gets his living from the SOIL" de-
clared Mr.. Buckley.
LAS for taking it out of politics, the
condition which this method of selec-
ton aims to correct, that OF having a
change of government and a new COM
missioner Of agriculture every two
years is unusual and is not likely to
take place in the future, just as for
period of years before 1910 the same
commissioner held office for a term of
considerable length.
Mr.. Buckley further stated that the
delegates assembly that met at Angus
ia recently approving such a method
of selection Of the commissioner of ag-
riculture was not q gathering of real
rarmers for the most part and THAI
many of them had never done actual
farming.

Annual Report State Pris-
on Physician A. p. Head

The annual report of DR.. Albert T.
Head, physician at the State prison at
Thomaston. has been filed with the
Governor and Council. 1t states
among yther important facts that less
acute sickness and Of less severe
type has taken place during the past
year among the inmates than during
the previous year.
Grip was far less prevalent during
the winter season and he treated but
one case of pneumonia, while stomach
and bowel trouble Of a disabling ma
ture. except in one instance, did not
exist. One case of appendicitis was
successfully operated on. DR.. Head
says:
Pulmonary tuberculosis, the great
menace Of penal institutions, has been
present in but three cases, two Of
which were greatly relieved by open
air treatment, suggested by myself and
promptly provided for by the warden
tents being erected in the prison yard
where they lived continuously, serving
also the important purpose of isola-
ton. l have one case of recent origin
of the above disease attended by
hemorrhage of the lungs.
There have been but two serious
accidents during the year, one a frac-
tured patella. in which case. useful
ness of the limb has been fairly re-
stored. A man in momentary fit of
insanity leaped over the board fence of
the prison yard, down into the quarry,
distance of so or 20 feet, sustaining
a fractured femur. or thigh bone at
lower third and internal injuries from
which he may die. Eye troubles,
which have been greatly neglected in
the past. in this institution, consisting
usually Of some form of visual defect
and requiring the attention of a spe-
cialist are very common. And right
here l would suggest that an appro-
priation be made by the State suf-
ficiently liberal to secure the services
OF competent specialist and pay for
suitable glasses"
