Less than half OF the women of
Sweden entitled to vote exercised
their newly-won franchise rights at
the polls in the elections of 1921, the
first year of full suffrage for women,
according to a report of the Swedish

public. The men did not show much

the number of women voters exceeded
the male vote in the capital of Stock

Poland, politically, is eagerly look
ing forward to the summer elections
when the first president of the new re-
public will be chosen by a national
assembly composed of representatives
Of both chambers of the diet. Joseph
Pilsudski, who was appointed chief of
state just after Poland was declared
a republic late in 1918 and has held
Office ever since under a provisional
constitution, is understood among
politicians to be one of the presiden-
tial candidates. Several other names
have been mentioned, but the news
paper editorial writers appear reason
ably confident that the chief contend
ers win be Pilsudski, Vincent Whites,
former premier and the present leader
of the peasant party in the diet, and
Wojciech Trampszynski, speaker of
the diet. There has also been much
speculation among politicians as to
whether 1gnace Jan Paderewski, pi-
anist and formerly premier, would en-
ter the presidential race, but no def
mite announcement has ever been
made one way Or the other. For near
ly a year Paderewski has been in
America, spending most of his time
in Paso Robes, Calf.

me say that we have nothing to do

we are utterly disarmed and helpless

Mussolini Qualities
 as a Linguist

Rome,- Dec. 22.-Benito Mussolini the youthful legal dictator of Italy. is an accomplished lingutst. Besides his mother tongue, Italian, he pos sesses, in the order named, knowledge of French, German and English.
 He learned French at an early age and he speaks it without the slightest accent. For some years before the war he was 8 professor of French literature in the University of Milan.
 While an editor on a newspaper published in Trento and owned by Cesare Batisti, the Italian patriot executed by the Austrians during the war, he studied German, and while his pronounciation is not on a par with his French, he has a profound knowledge of Goethes tongue.
 Seriously wounded during the war he remained two months in a hos pital. There, during his convalence, he took up the study of English.

Mantler Shop Is
 Fairyland for Baby Clothes and NeedlewOrk

There was a time when baby was limited to a few gifts like a rattle, q rubber ball. new dress, a bonnet or s coat but in this latter day of pro- gress there is no end of things which - can be given to wee brother or sister, NsRd all these things are attractively displayed at the Mantler Baby Shop iii the Arcade. During the past few weeks, Rudolph Mantler, the proprie- tor, has received a large stock of marvellous coats. of embroidered cashmere. chfnchilla and light French serge, but just as fast as these garments are received in the store they are purchased by the local pulp lie which appreciates having such splendid store as the Mantler Shop in this city.
 Another very serviceabIe and pret- ty gift for a child of two or three is the new Japanese tufted silk em- broidered bathrohes- Although they are exceedingly rich looking the robes are very moderately priced and have been a popular purchase of dis eliminating shoppers. Some people have rather vague impression of the Mantler Shop and believe it con- tatns wares only for infants but tha is decidedly wrong for some of the prettiest frOcks in the city are for girls of ten and twelve. The Oliver Twist suits for boys are displayed in varied and novel patterns. A
 After the Mantler Baby Shop was opened there was such a demand by Tne Sleauy customers TOT OIiier InlnSS made in the same dainty designs as the baby clothes. that MT. Rudolph eppeased the desire by opening the Mant1er Art Shop also in the Arcade. Stunning needlework is exhibited. l.

Moving Wheat West
to Benefit Many
KaIispeII Intenake)

Especially gratifying is today's story
hard wheat products from western
shipping ports.
While the westward movement Of
wheat is still relatively small it is en-
c%ouraging to note that as one Of the
results of the recently granted special
freight rate, there are prospects of an
enlarged market for Montana wheat.
The advantage of wheat growers due
to a shorter haul and a market less
keenly competitive than the Atlantic
ports furnish, are evident, and there is
the added advantage that other lines of
industry will be benefited by the de-
velopment of a western market.
Car shortage is less liable to be
acute on west-bound products than IN
those destined for eastern markets.
The great bulk of railroad tonnage
originating in the west is lumber, and
to meet the transportation demands the
carriers have been compelled to move
trains of empty cars from eastern ter
minals and this expense has always
been a factor in fixing the high rates
which obtain on most western COM
modities.
If a fair percentage of the wheat
Of the inland can be moved westward,
thus furnishing loading for these
empties, they viii become a source of
revenue instead of a bill of expense
and the railroads will no longer be able
to consistently urge such expense as
al excuse for excessive east bound
rates, and the utilization Of products
too heavy Or of too little value to
stand transportation charges, will be
made possible with a consequent stimu-
lation Of western industry and an en-
HANGED trade balance in u relation
to eastern markets.
