The weekly times-record. (Valley City, N.D.) 1912-1922, 1920-07-08

The election is over, the Times
Record rooster is not for sale, and
Lynn the First is renominated for
governor by comfortable but much
less majority than he had at any
previous election. We gave them a
run for their money and for two days
the leaguers admitted their own de-
feat and the league ROSTERS made
their appearance after the editors of
the league papers-particularly our
own friend across the street - had
shed briny tears of regret at the state
going for LANCER before half the
votes had been counted. The state has
given the present administration a
new lease of life. A majority has
said Townley and his program is the
thing they want. They say that ma
jority should rule-and we guess they
will-but very often the majority is
not right, and that is our opinion of
the outcome of this vote. We feel that
the farmers of this state will regret
that they supported this Townley pro-
gram at the end of the coming two
years. Very little has been received
up to this writing on the rest of the
! state ticket but if Frazier is nomi-
mated by fair majority of several
thousand votes, the inference is that
most of the state ticket will go with
him. In many legislative districts
/ Of the state the -Townley forces
have elected members of the house
and senate and we look for at least
one house of the next legislature to
be right. In the congressional dis
tricts we have captured the first dis
trict from the league, showing J. M
Baer under and nominating O. B
Burtness, of Grand Forks. The result
is disappointing to US in the state but
it is mighty comforting for US in the
good old county of Barnes where we
made gain Of practically eight hun.
dred votes. Had the other counties
of the state had the enlightenment
and work put into it that we had here
the results would have been different
1t shows that in the western part OF
the state the voters are only reading
one side of the question.

Mrs. Gait believes that ii cannot be

the states IN the West where women

and in other countries where women

never been definite sex vote. More
women may throw their influence to

During the war the women Of the
National American Woman Suf-
frage Association, although their
campaign for the passage of the
Federal amendment was practically
at it's height, turned aside from
their cause for themselves and took
up what they considered more ur-
gent work for humanity in general
and Tor their nation in particular
The Washington headquarters Of
the suffragists became the home of
women active in war work. The big
house on Rhode Island Avenue leased
| by tthe National American Woman
Suffrage Association in 1916 became
the center of many good times for
war workers III the national capital.
Girls from all parts of the country
came into personal contact with the
leaders of the suffrage movement.
In a statement made several
months after the armistice was
signed Mrs. Gait took up the ques-
ton of illiteracy and she called my
attention to it at'this point. At that
time she said:
women who have campaigned
for the vote have had occasion to
know well how great is the menace
to American institutions from an H.
literate non-English speaking cleo
! torate. These women had met the
slack spots in American citizenship
before the war.
when the National American
Woman Suffrage Association made
| it's offer of service to the United
States government in February.
1917, its program emphasized the
need of a campaign for Americana
zation, which at that early stage of
the war was elsewhere generally
looked upon as Of slight Importance.
"But the Nationals prediction
proved correct. 1t was not long be-
fore the Federal authorities were
appealing to Governors and state
councils Of defense to push forward
this movement, and a national Amer
icanization conference was called bv
the government"
Almost year ago Mrs. Gait out
lined a thorough program for the
education Of men and women of this
country in American citizenship. If
this program were carried out it
would mean that most of the litter
acy Of this country would be wiped
out. This is one of the questions
which she considers of vital import
ance at the present time.

it is not at all certain what any

TO the question as to how far be-
lief in candidates personal integ-
rity should inspire confidence and
win him votes, Mrs. Gait said:
