LOCAL OFFICERS PRE-
PARED TO REGISTER
WOMEN VOTERS
Both Parties . Want Large
Number to Qualify
September l8

Registration officers in this dis
trict are confident that they can
without difficulty provide for the
registration of all women voters
who apply, on the two dates set
apart for that purpose, Saturday,
September IS, and Saturday, Octo-
Der 16. Local political leaders in
discussing the matter last night
said that they have been prepar
ing for this contingency for some
time, and that underground wires
have been in operation for a con-
siderable period testing the
strength of the respective party
affiliations. One leader stated con-
fidently the figures indicative of
the majority which will be &C
credited to his party when the
election returns are in.
Both parties are doing consider
able personal work urging the
women to register. In some quar-
ters there is talk of forming a
voters club for women but no
definite steps in that direction
have yet been taken.

the present time, he explained, is
not under the jurisdiction of the
Department but of the Levy
Court. The former, he said, would
be pleased to hear the views of
the Newark people with regard to

Men differ, he said, on the ques-

Dover, Milford, and elsewhere,

citizens were unamious in their
opinion that the main highway

DIRECTORS OF ORIENT
RAILROAD REELECTED
Icy MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LtAsao WIRE

San Angelo, Texas, April g.
Stockholders of the Kansas City,
Mexico & Orient railroad Of Texas
in annual meeting here today re-
elected all members of the board
of directors, of which II. f. Hall,
of Kansas City, is chairman.
The board of directors appoint
ed A, j. Cleary, of San Angelo, as
acting superintendent of the Texas
division. ....
The directors decided to seek
finances for the construction of a
branch of the Orient from San
Angelo through ChristOvai and Ell
dorado to Sonora, Texas, and prob
ably to Del Rio, The proposed
branch which Chairman Hall said
probably would be under construc-
ton by September, would penetrate
the heart of the sheppard goat
raising country of Texas. 1t also
would have a strategic value, it
was said, in that it would provide
another direct route to the Mexican
border should the branch be built
to Del Rio.

from him, l have been anxious
that he should have all the shell
possible, and have that shell paint
ed any way he wished. At the
same time I have had to speak
with express emphasis to him on
more than one occasion: and on
one occasion Chat of Venezuela)
have had to make a display of
force and to convince him definite
~ that I would use the force if
necessary"
Mr.. Bishop declares that in spite
Of the Venezuela incident of De-
cember, 1902. which must have
been "a humiliating check the
former emperor cherished no re-
sentiment and subsequently wrote
Roosevelt the most friendly letters
He also ssnt the colonel a number
of photographs showing himself
and Roosevelt astride magnificent
horses at a .maneuVer of the Ger
man army. On the autographed
pictures he had written: The Col
onel of the Rough Riders lecturing
the Chief of the German Army
Total agreement about the general
lllhNiIIlS VI lllt anu IpllNN ''l N''ll
America and Germany" "On the
Muhlenherg; A grave discussion;
Carnegie look QUIT" and THE
Chief of the Germany Army thank
ing the Colonel of the Rough
Riders for the honor of INSPECTING
his troops" Mr.. Carnegie, by the
way once had credited a rumor
that Germany was building a strong
fleet to attack the United States.
A letter the colonel wrote to
Edward VII of England on April
%, 1906, contains a reference TO
the Algeciras conference of that
year, an International parley which
at the time was said TO have avert
ed a general European war. The
biographer states that the secret
history of this conference, which
stands revealed in Roosevelt's cor
respondence and which is far too
long for publication in the maya
zine, shows conclusively that it
was arranged by Roosevelt at the
insistent request of the kaiser that
Roosevelt drew up the terms of
and that he fairly compelled the
KAISER 10 give MS UNIV ming SNh-
sent to Them
Roosevelt's impatience with the
ceremonies and etiquette of courts
found vigorous expression, Mr..
Bishop says when he exclaimed,
after describing his experiences
with potentates of various king
doms, at the funeral of King Ed
ward, at which he represented the
United States; II felt if | met an
other king | should bite him. "
Amused and irritated by the fussy
anxiety displayed by the ruler of
a petty kingdom about his pre-
negatives and the precedence to
which he was entitled, Roosevelt
at another time said, drawing upon
his bird lore for a smile: HE is
nothing but a twittering wagtail.
Writing again to King Edward
of England, for whom he pro-
fessed a high regard, he said in
It90S: 81 feel very strongly that
the real interests of the English
speaking peoples are one, alike in
the Atlantic and the Pacific; and
that, while scrupulOusly careful
neither to insult nor to injure 9TH
Iers we should yet make it evident
that we are ready and able to
hold our own"
