CANDIDATES FOR TRUSTEES.
Notice to Those Who Intend to File
for Positions of Township
Trustees.

AS the manner for filing for the
positions of township Trustees will
be different this year word in eX-
PLANTATION in order to avoid confus-
ion and delav might be of some help
both to the election board and after
wards also in this office.
These are the facts-The term of
township trustees now is three years
and that is the reason the manner
for filing has to be different. In 1918
there were three trustees elected in
each township, one for four years,
one for three years and one for two
years. One of these now then. still
has two more years to serve and one
has one more year and one steps out
January LIST. 1921. This year then
there are only two trustees to be ell
ected and both for a term of three
years. One for the term beginning
January LIST, 1921 to take the place
of the one that was elected for the
two year term two years ago and one
| for the term beginning January 1st
1922. to take the place of the one
elected for the three year term two
years ago and whose term expires
January LIST, 1922.
Now in making out the affidavit
tile applicant should state when his
term is to begin as according to the
new law this will have to be printed
on the ballot and unless it is SC
stated on the affidavit We have nc
way of knowing.
l would suggest filing out these
affidavits and filing them in order
that the names might be printed on
the ballot as otherwise lot OF
names on written in and always
cause more or less work for the judg.
es and clerks.
The time for filing these affidavits
expires fifteen days before the
Primary so the last day / think will
be on Saturday the 22d, day OF May
! 1920.

EMIGRATION OF WOMEN FROM
BRITAIN FORCED BY WAR

NEW YORK, April 6-The Saliva
ton Army in the British Isles, is work
ing in cooperation with the govern
ment is promoting emigration of the
approximately 1,250,00O women in eX-
cess of the male population there,
Commissioner David c. Lamb, London
foreign secretary of the Army on a
mission to the United States has an
nounced here.
Spinsterhood or emigration is the
fate of these women, the commission
er asserted, adding:
1--WE offer no apology for active pro
paganda designed to procure a better
distribution of the sexes. There are
a million and a quarter more women
than men in the British Isles today,
and M of the biggest after the war
tasks assigned the Salvation Army in
Britain is to stimulate female emigra-
ton and direct it to those colonies in
the British Empire such as western
Canada and portions of Africa and
Australia where there are more male
than female inhabitants. The pros
poet of placing female domestics in
the United States has not been over
looked.
IL cdlNdIlOn Allly has ulSpdJClleu
several shiploads of emigrantS to Can
ada already. We help them make ar-
rangements to leave the old country,
provide transportation when neces
sary and through our worldwide or
ganization see to it that the emf
grants are safely settled in the new
land.
"Our records show that of the girls
who emigrated some years ago to
certain sections where were
in the minority 60 per cent were marri-
ed within three years of their arrival.
This fact and the opportunities for
work at good wage in other lands
are not without significance to the
tens of thousands of thoughtful and
enterprising women in the British
Isles"
Other after the wal conditions in
the British Isles included the virtual
disappearance of the vagrant, and the
shortage of agricultural labor due in
part to the wartime cultivation Of
more than 100000 acres of grass
land, Commissioner Lamb said.
The success or failure of local
option" in Scotland will furnish a
good Indication" on the prospects
for prohibition in the Isles, he said,
adding that the probabilities are that
the public houses will go in many
parts of Scotland. :,
an Great Britain as a wholeS how
ever, the tendency is toward a re-
striction on the sale of liquor in pub
lie houses-corresponding to the Am
erican salOons-and continuation Of
limitation as to hours. This makes
for temperance rather than prohibi-
ton. However, much they may scott
English brewers are taking the pro-
hibition threat much more seriously
than they are willing to admit, and
are sper re sums in counter
propaP Iney are obviously wor-
ried
Everybody is waiting to analyze
the results of nationwide prohibition
in the United States"
