ARE WOMEN WIVES

It seems absurd to advise women to
take an interest in the source OF their
income-the daily work Of their hus-
bands-but to take an interest in any
thing with which you do not come dir
ectly in contact is a real effort of the
imagination, and is therefore not so
easy.
First Of all, it is not bad idea to
consider what you yourself would do
if confronted with his business prob
lem, whatever it may te-to sell
paints or pumps or bonds; to cure or
plead or preach. Oh, you will say,
Of course you could not do it at all.
But then, ought you to take it so much
as a matter Of course that he can and
he does? Don't American wives ac-
cept the business ability of their hus-
bands too colmly? But, you will say,
it is easy for him-he has been train
ed to do it. But that training is in
itself superiority, and the daily
responsibility and discipline of bust
ness develop force of character lack

the first step in understanding your
husbands business is to respect it.
Then it might be good thing to
sit down and try to reconstruct his day
in detail, what all the little things
, must be that happen to him between
the time he leaves the house in the
morning and comes home in the af

ed for nothing" Under INERTIA" the
principal reasons were general in
difference, which accounted for more
than half the number, Indifference to
particular election, neglect, ignorance
and timidity.
The cure for most of these obstacles
to voting lies in education, with the
purpose of changing the mental atti-
. tude of the non-voter. Permanent
registration helps, as has been shown
in Minnesota. A shorter ballot, with
simpler proposals and issues, tends to
encourage voting.
But the one change that would do
the most to make voters out of non
voters would be the revival of party
interest through readoption Of the con
vention system.-Minneapolis Jour

WHY THEY DON'T VOTE

Less than $4,000 Of the $4,000 reg
istered voters in Minneapolis part
icipated in Mondays primary. Some
IS 900 voted Eyes" or mo" on the pro-
posed charter.
Similar abstention from voting
characterized the primary turnout all
over the State. But the total State
vote on Monday of approximately
100000 shows a gratifying increase
over the primary vote OF 45O,ooo IN
1924.
Even after a fair allowance is add
ed to cover Democrats who, having no
contests of their own, did not go to the
polls, the total is still less than it
should be-.
This failure of citizens tc go to the
polls is an old story, dating back to
the day when the direct primary was
adopted. From that day interest be-
gan to wane, not only in the primary
itself, but oftentimes in the election
that followed. The subsistence OF
political parties, of the interest and
loyalty to political parties, accounts,
no doubt, for the fact that emily a min
ority of the voters participate in pri-
maries nowadays.
Then it must be remembered that
giving women the ballot doubled the
number of possible voters, but has not
as yet anywhere near doubled the
number of actual voters. a consid-
cradle share of the stay-at-home vote
is feminine.
A scientific attempt was made at
the University Of Chicago following
the election of 1923, to determine why
people don't vote. Trained investi-
gators of the University's local COM
munity research committe interview
ed more than $500 representative

accounted for 25.4 per cent; illegal ane

When he was two years of age the

KNOCKERS AND BOOSTERS

When the Creator had made all the
good things it seemed to him there
still was some dirty work to do. So
he made the beast, the reptile and the
poisonous insects; and when he had
finished he still had old scraps left
over from the rattlesnake, the scor-
pion, the hyena, and the skunk. So he
put them all together, covered it with
suspician, wrapped it with jealousy,'
marked it with yellow strickland
called it knocker.
Then he took a sunbeam, and put
into it the heart of child, the brain
of a man and wrapped it with civic
pride, covered it with brotherly love,
made it a believer in equality and
justice, a worker for and supporter
Of every good thing in the commun-
ity-and called it booster.
And since then the Lord has given
men the choice with whom to associ-
ate.-Exchange.

Ole Aspelund returned from Great
Falls the fore part of this week, af-
ter spending several days in negoti-
alton with a well-drilling outfit with
reference to the development of the
Big Muddy dome, on which a syndi-
cate, of which he is the head, has a
large block of leases. While Mr.. As
pelund is reticent it is known that
he has entered into arrangements by
which an expert geologist will be
brought here at an early date to
make a report on the structure with
in Sheridan county. A tentative con-
tract has been entered into with one
of the big oil companies by which
they are to move their rig on the
field and start drilling should the
biologists report prove encouraging.
Ardil Well Starts Talk.
The finding of indications of oil in
the Ardill district in the Moose Jaw
region turned the attention of oil
men to the Big Muddy Dome. The
drilling outfit there struck indications
of oil when they were down 900 feet,
although they did not expect anything
before they got to the shale on the
5000 foot level. The Associated
Press sent out a report, which was
published in all the northwest papers,
confirming the first report that oil
had been found. There was much ex-
citement in Moose Jaw and many fill
ings were made in the Dominion
land office. kilograms began to pour
in from oil men in the Shelby district
to Moose Jaw agents to report and
grab all the leases in sight.
Rainbow Hotel Lease Hounds Get
Active
Many oil operators, who make the
Rainbow Hotel, Great Falls, their
rendezvous, began to make prepare
lions to leave for the Canadian field
and get in on the ground floor in the
Big Muddy dome, which extends down
through Sheridan county. Alarmed
at the turn events were taking the
Great Falls Tribune came out with a
story denying the first story sent out
by the Associated Press and stating
that no oil had been found at Ardill
The Tribune, however, admitted that
indications of oil such as bubbles,
greasy mud, etc., had been encoun-
tered at a very shallow depth by the
Ardill drilling outfit. Despite the
article in the Tribune, several Shelby
operators are known to be looking
over the field. Some suspect that
the haste with which the Tribune en-
tered a denial to the oil story from
Moose Jaw was suspicious. To peo-
pie of this train of thought, the Tri-
bune article seemed to be an indica-
ton that the big petroleum interests
were becoming interested and wanted
to scare away others from the struc.
ture.
There are two sets of leaseholders
in Sheridan County. One set is known
as the Redstone bunch and the othe,
is associated with Mr.. Aspelund
They are trying to meet on common
ground to boost this structure.

A complaint has been filed in the
district court by John Lee against
his wife, Faye, asking for divorce
and such other relief as the court may
deem Just and equitable. The sum-
mons and complaint were served on
the defendant in Great Falls, where
she now resides. The plaintiff asks
for the custody of the child, Imcgene,
which is the only issue of the mar
rage, which was solemnized at Ames,
Iowa, May II, 1921.
The plaintiff alleges:
"That on or about the 22nd day of
January, 1925, the defendant without
cause, reason or excuse therefor, will
fully deserted and abandoned the
plaintiff herein, leaving the house
maintained fer said plaintiff and de-
PENDANT without the consent, and
against the will of the plaintiff here
in, and that said defendant ever since
said time has, and does now continue
to abandon and desert the plaintiff
herein, refusing to live and cohabit
with him, and living separate anC
apart from him, all without his con.
sent and contrary to his will"
The complaint goes net to say that
the defendant took the child, limo
gene, to Iowa and asks the Court t.
decree the return of said child to the
plaintiff.

ESSAY ON PROHIBITION

Continued from Page y
yay of uniting the temperance forces
and solving the liquor problem.
The Anti-Saloon League founded by
DR.. Russell, a Congregational minis
ter and Christian statesman, in OBJ
erin, Ohio, in 1898, in an incredibly
short time, spread over the nation,
uniting the forces of the church and
the leading men of the nation into
one united effort for the prompt sup
preston and ultimate determination
of the beverage liquor traffic. From
1895 to 1906, the record of practical
ly every year showed an increase in
the dry territory and dry population
of the United States. During this
period a number of important events
occurred which were of special inter
est in connection with the Prohibition
movement. The Worlds Temperance
Congress was held in June 1898. The
first official declaration by any gener-
al temperance organization for Ma
tiOnal Constitutional Prohibition was
made by the order of the Sons OF
Temperance in 1856.
The w. c. 7. u. had repeatedly de-
clared for National constitutional
Prohibition, both during the leader.
ship of Frances E. Willard and the
presidency of Mrs. Stevens. They haC
declared for Prohibition in the Ma
tiOnal Constitution.
Ratification of the proposed prohi
bitory amendment to the Federal Con
stitution began almost immediately
after the passage of the Joint Reso
luton in 1918. Mississippi was tn,
first state to ratify. In January 1919
thirty-six states had ratified tn,
amendment which was placed in tn
Constitution as the Eighteenth
Amendment.
