LIGHT IS THROWN
ON HIGHWAY KICK
BY HELENA ARREST
Charles Meyersick Arrested on
Booze Charge; Made Trip

That Charles Myersick, who recently
complained of the condition of the roads
between Great Falls and Helena, was
justified in that he required highway
upon which he could make great speed
is brought out in his arrest at Helena
charged with transporting whisky from
this place to the capital city.
Myersick was arrested in Helena Fri
day night after the sheriff OF Lewis
and Cluark county had followed him. into
that city. unable to overtake him on
account of his speed. and located his
car in the basement of garage with a
cargo of several cases of whisky, it is
alleged.
Myersick. it is understood, had been
making regular trips between the two
cities and this regularity brought him
under suspicion. His arrest followed in
formation telephoned to Helena by
Sheriff ]. p. Burns Walter Brennan,
who accompanied him on the trip, was
also arrested.
Myersick is well known in central
Montana. being a member of prom
inent Fergus county family, a former

timents of the women of other lands
but with authority | may say that there
are millions of suffragists in the United
States who have been fairly stupified
with astonishment at these almost un--
accountable events. AS all the world
knows the United States of America has
been dedicated from the first to the
principle of self government. No other
nation has made the same pronounce
ments.
Betrayed by Nation.
'No other country has repudiated its
constitution, principles and history in
it's denial of votes to its women and
that is why the extension Of suffrage TO
the women of all Europe has so humiliat
ed the women of the United States,
Women of the United Staets are not less
glad that the women of other lands
have won the vote but they feel that
they have been betrayed by their own
nation.
1T was in the United States that the
first woman suffrage convention was
held and the first organized woman suf-
frage movement in the world began. That
was 70 years ago Had men been rea
sonable or logical, they would at once
have responded TO the appeal of 1S4S
with the consistent answer, Since we
are government of the people, and
Great Falls daily tribune., 1920-06-07

women are people, they must be lnclud-
ed in all governmental functions. But
men are neither reasonable nor logical;
men are exceedingly emotional and SEN
timental. The race is too near its cave
days to be otherwise.
Liberal With Men,.
80 liberal has the United States
been in the matter of man suffrage that
Is of the IS states once allowed men to
vote who were not yet citizens and
several still do; and seem to see nothing
inconsistent in permitting an illiterate
non-tax paying alien to vote while de-
nying that privilege to American born,
intelligent tax-paying women.
1T has been familiar sight on cleo
tion days when q question of woman suf-
frage has been pending to see refined
ladies'. college graduates and women of
Importance, standing 100 feet from the
polling place making their appeal to
voters. while men unable to speak Eng
lish. the language of the ballot. unable TO
read in any language, uncouth and un-
trained, marched past them to cast votes
against their rnfranchisement.
Incredible. you say. 1t is, astounding
and unbelievable. 1t staggers and dumb
POUNDS one. Should you ask. why is it, |
answer. there are excuses but no de-
fense.'
Fact Is There.
''rhe great. bare. bald fact is there.
For 10 years in land wherein no man
ever made sacrifice for a vote, women
have given their all to gain it. and their
country has not vet proclaimed their
task completed.
1T is not clear that the time has
passed for women 10 work for the en-
franchisement of women alone? Why
should not the International Woman
Suffrage alliance give way to an Inter
national Suffrage alliance, sending forth
its propaganda for the enfranchisement
of men as we'll as women? And why
should not men end women of Demo
cratic vision unite in this common aim?
Most countries have had mems leagues
to aid women suffrage; why not united
mems and women's leagues TO aid the
enfranchisement of be tn men and women,
or nitherS"

Tells Geneva Congress
American Women Feel
Their Own Nation Has
Been False to Them.
Germany Has Outstrip-
ped All Other Countries
in Political Liberty She
Saws in an Address.

Geneva, Switzerland, June 6.
AT the opening here today OF
the congress of the Internation-
al Woman Suffrage alliance,
Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait, pres
ident of the American Woman
suffrage association, addressed
the congress on the progress of
the movement throughout the
world. Mrs. Gait said in part:
For the suffragists of the world a
few facts stand forth with great clarity.
The first and greatest is that the pollti-
cal liberation of women was tossed up
out of the war chaos like an isolated
mountain when the world was in the
making War, the undoubted original
cause of the humiliating. age-old subJu-
CATION of women the world around, war,
the combined enemy of their emancipa-
ton, war has rendered to the women
of many lands their political freedom.
Strange bewildering fact!
The Latin and Oriental countries still
hold out but that will not be for long.
Rumania, the first Latin country to ex-
tend the vote to women. has already led
the way. the others will follow. / be
lieve no country in Europe except Tur-
key now is without a woman suffrage
association.
Task Not Vet COMPLETED.
Women will soon vote wherever men
do. Yet while all these old barriers are
swept aside in many lands and men and
women enfranchised, the task is not yet
completed in the countries where women
have labored hardest and where the prin-
ciple of democracy has longest been un-
challenged.
There must be millions of women in
Europe who never hoped for political
liberty and who are now dazed by its sud
den coming. The women of Norway,
Denmark and Iceland have long been
enfranchised, but Germany has outstrip
ped all other nations in the recognition
of the principle of equality, with 1877
women serving on city councils and 81
as members of the national parliament.
The president of the German National
Suffrage association comes to this con-
gress as member of the city council
of Dresden.

FARMERS SCORE
SHIPPING BILL
ASK ITS vET TO
Tell Wilson Measure Will
Do Great Injury to
Agriculture.

Chicago. June GA telegram urging
that the shipping bill recently passed by
congress be vetoed, has been sent to
President Wilson on behalf of the Farm
ers' National council and the all-Ameri-
can Farmer-Labor Co-Operativ2 com
mission, it was announced SATURDAY night
by Benjamin c. Marsh, an officer of
both organizations.
The telegram declared that the bill
would turn over the peoples ships at
a small part of their cost to American
and British shipping trusts which are
not regulated, and can by discriminating
tariffs prevent profitable expectation of
American farm products.
Three months of private operation
of railroads have been complete failure
and done irreparabe injury to agricul-
ture. 1t rests with you to protect Ameri-
can farmers from the short sighted pol
icy of congress, opposed by all inform
