with Westchester county. While '.R.
A. c." does not mention the westchester
county streams he and his friend Riley
visited, he writes concerning the two
trips as follows:
"On Friday night. the eth inst,
left New York at 6 o'clock for q fishing
trip in the Adirondack, arriving at
Woods Station about 4 40 A NJ. After
breakfast I started to fish Twttchel

nice trout In my creel
after eating some lunch I started
to fish the brook having Its source in
Razor Back Pond, and at 3 P. NJ had
succeeded in landing seven more, maxi
ing total OF twenty-one trout from
seven to nine inches long.
AS II was raining hard by this time
and almost on point of showing. being
very cold. I left for home on the mid
night train. arriving at Yonkers at 0
A NJ. Sunday.
Knowing my friends the Rileys
would enjoy a trout dinner, I proceeded
to take them over fresh mess. Riley
at once suggested we auto out to our
little private brook back of Yonkers in
the afternoon and see II there was any
thing doing.
Leaving Yonkers at 2 80. we arrived
at the brook about =. NJ. and in three
hours time we had succeeded in landing

Weighing / y pounds each; four trout. 10

the rod no purchased arranged so that

OF the rcd has not been stuck, according
to plug Ugly"
"Beginner's'' purchase was "a rod five
feet long. weighing five and one-half
ounces, in three pieces. counting the butt
as one piece. The two pieces of bamboo
are the same length. about two feet, the
butt about one foot"
Plug Ugly" writes: "If Beginner pur-
chased well made casting rod he need
not worry because tho ferrue is placed
in the middle. Such rods are swelled
near the butt and that portion OF the
lower joint does not give under the
strains TO which the rod is subjected.
The bend begins about half way up the
joint and n trial will show that the fer
rule will not be in tho centre of the
arch.
II have tried them all. The one

WANT PEOPLE TO
own RAILROADS
Railroad Men Wire Members Of
Congress Appealing For
Public OWNERSHIP ,.

HARRISBURG, Pa, Feb. 1.-THE
The consensus Of opinion among men
who work at railroading for living
appears to favor government owner
ship of the great arteries of commerce
and industry. That the organized
railroaders of the Cumberland Valley
division of the railroad administra-
TONS Potomac region are in favor is
evidenced by the action taken at the
last session of their organization.
The meeting was held in Chambers
burg last week for the purpose Of or
ganizing federation of employees, and
600 railroaders from Martinsburg 10
White Hill were in attendance. The
federation practically. includes every
railroader in the district. Telegrat ms
based on resolutions were sent by the
meeting to United States senators and
members of Congress, asking them to
support the government ownership
proposition.
Similar action was taken by the
railroad organizations in the Harris
burg and Altoona sections short
time previous to the action of the
Cumberland Valley men.

PRO-WAR SOCIALISTS APPEAL FOR
PERMANENT GOVERNMENT CONTROL

The Social Democratic League Of
America, consisting Of pro-war Social
lists who broke away from the Socialist
Party because OF its pacifsm and I'M
Americanism, is circulating petition
to Congress asking government opera
ton and ownership Of railroads and
water ways. The petition readsT
ITO the Congress OF the United
States:
1.-THE undersigned citizens of the
United States respectfully petition
your honorable body to enact as soon
as possible the necessary legislation
that will enable the government Of
the United States to acquire and to
operate permanently the railroad sys-
tenn of the United States, which in
cludes a large part of the Inland
Water Transportation"
An appeal, addressed to the PRO
excessively minded men and women Of
America" declares:
We ask your earnest attention to
the following facts:
l. A year of the government oper-
alton Of the railroads of the United
States, although handicapped by a
monstrously extravagant rental and by
innumerable difficulties in other direc-
tons, has demonstrated that govern
ment control can effect enormous
economies and improvements.
2. So great would these economies
be, on reasonable basis of purchase,
that it would be possible to rehabili-
tate the railroad system (Which pri-
vate ownership had left largely in a

SENATEUR TO
ACT ON SUFFRAGE
Legislatures Of Twelve States
Have Adopted Resolutions
Asking Vote on Submission.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. o.
Some light on the country's disap-
prevail Of the delay in the adoption
Of the Federal Suffrage Resolution by
the Senate is gained from the fact
that the legislatures of II states have
called upon the Senate to act without
delay. So far as can be ascertained,
the resolution lacks one vote, or two
at the most.
The Nebraska Legislature has made
such a request without a single dis
senting vote. A copy was signed by
the Governor and forwarded to Wash
ington. It calls or both the Nebraska
senators to give their votes in favor
of submission of the amendment.
This may affect the whole situation,
for Senator Hitchcock so far has failed
to support suffrage. The legislative
bodies of Kansas acted unanim ously
on a resolution urging the Senate of
the United States to pass the Susan B.
Anthony amendment resolution with
out delay. At almost the same hour
the California Legislature presented a
| memorial to Congress, asking that
body to grant political freedom to
women.
Similar action has been taken by
| the legislatures of Indiana, Nebraska,
! Colorado, Utah, South Dakota, Wis
! consin, New York, Michigan and Min
nesota. Within !. short time it is
| expected that Oregon, Delaware
Idaho and Iowa will be added to the
list. Resolutions by the Idaho Legis-
lature may. it is felt, lead to change
in the attitude Of Senator Borah.

Principles That Forced Us Into
War Must Be Followed
in Peace.

America, the major ally that lost
the least blood and made the most
money during the war, is facing Its
most critical struggle between IDEAL
ism and materialism," said Charles w.
Flint, president Of Cornell college,
Mount Vernon, Iowa, in an address
before the Association of American
Colleges here. Twill the idealism
which finally drove us into the war,
welded us into nationality and be-
came the shibboleth for the whole
world, be transmitted into the reor-
ganization Of peace in this land? We
will be either better or worse in the
reaction days; materialism will return
fourfold If idealism cannot hold the
helm.
Against the appeals to selfish iso-
lation-as impossible as it is immoral
the leaders Of national thought and
molders of national life must foster
that ideal OF International friendship
and international obligation without
which future peace is impossible, and
which must further find a practical
expression in some form Of internal
tional league.
america has q duty to humanity
and mankind she cannot shtrk. The
college must inspire men Of the larger
national ideals, not only compatible
with, but inclusive Of, the interna-
tional; more American because more
cosmopolitan in sympathy, under
standing and interest; more patriotic
because more human, daring ITO be-
lieve and act in the faith that t is

KANSAS Law MAKER HAS
BILL TO STOP STRIKES

TOPEKA, Kan, Feb. 7.-Trade
unionists in this state are polishing
their war clubs to use on a. "no-strike"
bill introduced in the Kansas legisla-
ture by Representative Freeman. The
bill is patterned after the Colorado
law, which is violated at VIII by trade
unionists in the Rocky mountain state.
In both cases the worker must stay
at work while a state commission in
vestigates industrial disputes. If the
worker quits while the office holders
confab about the matter, he'll be Jailed
or fined. This scheme was imported
from Canada into Colorado. AS trade
unionists have their own notions about
freedom, they are not bit diplomatic
in their opposition to any proposal
that would hold them to their jobs.

in this sovereign state Of Michigan.
It is not waiting for the return to
this country of those brave lads who
offered life and limb for democracy
and who, through their sacrifices,
have learned the higher meaning of
the real democratic spirit.
In so-called ripper bill, Introduced
into the Michigan legislature and
which affects the court system Of De-
troit, there has been inserted a mod
est little provision purporting to make
easier the selection Of juries. Jurors
henceforth If the bill becomes law,
will be selected from the assessment
rolls of the city, not from the regis
tration lists. :
Even some aforetime ultra conserv-
atives are protesting at the effect Of
this proposed method Of jury picking.
Listen to the words of William P. Con-
molly, former Recorder Of the city Of
Detroit:
"A furthe r provision Of the bill pro-
vides that jurors are to be selected
from the assessment roll. So, we are
no longer to have trial by a jury of
our peers a property qualification is
