WOMEN OF STATE
MAKE POLITICAL
BOW At NEE INC
Mrs, George Bass, Member of
Democratic Touring Party
and National Chairman
Cummings Make Addresses

To Albuquerque belongs the distinc-
ton of having the first woman's po-
litical meeting in New Mexico. The
meeting-for democratic women-was
held yesterday morning in the Elks
club. Mrs. Elmer Veeder of Las We
gas, state chairman of the woman's S
bureau, presided. Mrs. George Bass
of Chicago and Washington, who has
been an active suffrage worker for the
last fifteen years and who managed
the women's campaign in the twelve
suffrage states in 1916 and was sue
cessful in winning ten out of the
twelve for the democratic party, thus
making the election of Woodrow Will
son possible. addressed the women on
suffrage and what 1t means, dwelling
more briefly on the democratic party's
duties and principles.
The history of what women had
done for suffrage and some of the
things that had been done to delay it
was told by the speaker, who does not
approve of the militant suffragist.
II will assert" said Mrs. Bass. that
the militants have not advanced the
cause of suffrage one day but that
they have delayed it many days, even
weeks and months"
She asserted that the republican
party could not claim credit for the
passage of the amendment as the
work of republican congress.
ut was emphatically not republi-
can measure" she said 1T was a BIZ
party measure. And the fact that
eight more democrats voted against
the bill than republicans Is a mere
matter of arithmetic"
Then she added with a smile:
THE hardest blow to me in the
whole campaign was that the measure
did not pass before the 4th of last
March. Then it would have been
democratic measure passed by a dem
ocratic congress"
Mrs, BASS spoke of the principles of
the democratic party, maintaining
thes were those that had made It i'm
perative for America to enter the
world war--''the principles of hu-
manity and justice"
The child labor law was cited as an
instance of progressive social legsla-
ton of the democratic administration.
The republican party on the other
hand has nothing to offer except de-
structive criticism" she said. Not
one thing that is constructive. If they
have any plans they dare not tell
them"
Though Mrs. Bass spoke for an hour
or more il was with regret that Mrs
n. b, Laughlin of Santa F'e. associate
national committeeWoman, announced
that l2 O'Clock, time for luncheon, had
arrived and the meeting adjourned to
the Alyarado hotel.

Bridgeport Resident Grateful foI
Relief Secured by Treatment
With Blood Builder

Cases Of walking sickness are

the tonic treatment recommended by
Mrs. William Walker of No. LAG Co.
Oar street. Bridgeport, Conn. She
says:
BY gradual stages my condition
became so bad that I was on the
verge Of a nervous breakdown. NV
stomach caused me great distress
especially from gas. and when I tried
to gain rest through sleep I tossed
about and generally arose more tired
than when / went to bed. My appe-
title was poor and at times l was un-
able to do my work. There were
aches all over my body and dizzv
spells invariably came on when
stopped over
L had read great deal about DR..
Williams Pink Pills and decided to
try the remedy. There was a change
for the better in short time and
gradually my strength came back.
My stomach was so much better that
| could eat a hearty meal without
distress and l slept well. The dizzv
spells have entirely disappeared. nv
nerves have gained strength and

ton to DR.. Williams Pink Pills"

Editors Letter Box
Reply to Spauldina.

Editor Kennebec Journal:
Sir: May I beg sufficient space In
your paper to reply to your cor
respondent. Albion K. Spaulding in
a recent issue concerning bad roads
neglected." Did he possess the
faintest idea of the difficulty and ex-
pense of keeping the ordinary coun-
try highway in good condition under
present day traffic. his criticism
would be less unjust and more in
telligent.
The people in the rural commune
ties are today spending more in the
vain effort to keep their roads in
good order than they are spending
on the education of their children.
and this chiefly for the benefit of the
stranger passing their premises. and
the thanks received from such as
couraginG. Let us hope the major
ity of those using automobiles have
sufficient intelligence to appreciate
this sacrifice. but unfortunately
there are not a few who, just as
soon as they are called upon to pay
a few dollars year taxes on a car,
not only expect but demand that the
roads on which they grace their pres
ence be made at once perfect, but
also that the people in the rural sec
tons be their serving men. by at
once repairing the damage caused
Ly them on the highway.
Did space permit l could a tale or
two unfold of the hoggishness and
petty meanness Of such. in their
treatment of men who nave helped
them out of their difficulties at all
hours of the night and IN all wealth
ers, but will simply remind Mr.
Spaulding that most of us living in
the country are here not, chiefly, as
he appears to think, to repair and
clear up the damage after he and
others have passed our premises, but
by sheer hard work to get the neces-
saries of life and to produce d sur
plus Of food for others.

ForestalIinu Remedy.

The Boy Scout movement is no
longer an experiment; it is an inf1u-
ence, and a mighty and wholesome
one in our country. 1t has had long
trial and has worked. and worked
we'll. We have proven in ten thou
sand ways that the leading of boy
life il the character forming period
makes or mars the following man
hood. We know that if we inspire
loyal Americanism in the boys of to-
Gay they will not be bolshevists
when they take up the duties Of citi-
zenship.
This week the Boy Scouts Of
America are campaigning to obtain
100000 associate adult members
! and to raise S1,000,00O. The boy of
the family stands UP manfully to ask
a vote of confidence from his elders,
He stands on his record. with clear
eyes. clean heart and high purpose.
| Shall we give him what he asks
We say Yes" with all the emphasis
at our command.
| Every family should be proud to
! have a representative in the Boy
Scouts of America. An exchange
says:
| Long before the clarion
| n n tc.t,, I'D
Scouts, although ideally a civic or
| sanitation. were being trained in
the qualities, physical. mental and
spiritual, that make stout hearted
and faithful soldiers. An illustra-
ton: OF troop of Scouts formed at
Waltham. Mass. seven years before
the United States entered the war
l2S joined the army and navy. and OF
these 80 were privates, Is became
non commissioned officers, Il re-
ceived commissions. and were
decorated for gallantry in France.
AS it is the creed of the Boy Scouts
to be honest and fearless, lovers OF
clean sport, adept in woodcraft
prompt to aid and quick to act, al
ways dependable and ever loyal
there can be no better soldiers. AND
the finest citizenship flowers from
the seed of their endeavor. They have
an esprit de corps that qualities them
for the most urgent civic service. A
good Boy Scout cannot be slacr
and Indifferent citizen"
True Americarism is the vital
problem of the hour. Carefully Gull
tivated honor, craftsmanship (Which
means fair play) and service to 9TH
ers in our growing crop of boys
means a harvest free from the weeds
of bolshevism, W. W.-ism and like
parasites which hope to live from the
endeavors of others.
We think we know what the yer.
dict of the grown-ups is to be, ano
in that confidence we say to the
waiting Scout: Stand at ease"

Germany and the Allies while he is
more concerned over the Austrian
settlement. President Wilson's posi-
ton remains to be explained.
The same despatch that reported
him as absolutely opposed" also
stated that the hand Of American
bankers was to be everywhere seen
in the proposed financial changes
There is manifest a desire to see
Germany re-established as factor
in international trade. Their hand
has been seen before and invariably
in the direction of dickering with
Germany on matters of commerce.
So the secret, long thinly dis
guised. is fully out. Big business IN

have a chance to recoup it's losses OF

among the people to protest against
the betrayal Of all that is decent, in
the interests of moneymaking?
1t now appears that if Germany
can stave off signing the treaty for
