OPPOSE SUFFRAGISTS Colorado Women Give Views Against Political Equality When Mrs. Frances W. Goddard, president of the Colonial Dames of Colorado, frankly declared in an eastern publication, that the experiment of woman suffrage in her state was a failure, and that the best thing that could happen, for the state or for women, would be to have it immediately abolished, she became the object of suffrage vituperation everywhere. But it appears that she does not by any means stand alone; and other Colorado women of undisputed social and civic prominence challenge suffrage attacks by making similar statements. For example, Miss Mary Mackenzie Gambrill of Colorado Springs, writes: I cannot see that suffrage has purified politics, or placed better men in office, or has been productive of any legislation beneficial to either women or children. I think women are too hysterical, too personal in feeling, and not well enough balanced to exercise the right of suffrage. And their attitude in all these discussions proves the truth of my opinion. Mrs. Chaloner B. Schley of Colorado Springs, although still a believer in woman suffrage in theory, writes, that practically after watching it for many years in Colorado, she considers it a failure. She adds: I can see nothing that it has accomplished in its sixteen years here that has not been done equally in other states where they have no women's suffrage. Our political ring remains as corrupt as ever and the addition of women's votes in the district has been only there is only one ground upon which absolute divorce may be procured. In Idaho there are seven. New York limits the hours in which a woman may be employed. Idaho fixes no limit. On the whole, are not "man-made laws" just, not to say generous, towards the women? COLLIER AT WASHINGTON Making Friends at National Capital for San Diego Fair (Correspondence of The Gazette) WASHINGTON, July 13.—People throughout the country are beginning to realize that there will be an exposition in 1915 to celebrate the opening of the Panama Canal, and some of them have heard that there will be two expositions in the same year, in the same state, to celebrate the same event. By this time almost everyone has learned that one exposition will be held in San Diego, the first port on American soil after vessels pass through the canal into the Pacific; they may know that there will be another one at San Francisco. The latter will be a big exposition backed by millions of dollars, but it will be no more interesting or valuable in the way of education than the exposition at San Diego, which will represent an expenditure of $10,000,000 or more, and, moreover, will be held throughout the year 1915 and not only for six months. Another thing, which may not count for much in the long run—the San Diego exposition is already begun. The organization is completed, the president of the United States has personally and also by proxy officiated at the breaking of ground, and congress is considering a resolution which it will doubtless pass before adjourning, authorizing the president to invite all the Latin-proper course to pursue Perkins of California said: "I congratulate Col. Collie ergy, tact and goaheading is a wonderful man, and in the greatest credit commendation for his work in Washington." NEW ELEVENTH DAY Many Men Mentioned Congressional Candidates The passage of the amendment bill by the senate fact that California willgressmen for the next five there is a renewal of talkdates in the new elevator. The most interesting new connection is the announcement Senator Wright, who hererally picked as the "candidate will not make The San Diego Union say: "It will be greatly for interest that the first rite from the eleventh district resident of this county probable, too, that if the of San Diego county sho on a strong man, he will mention at the primary er hand should two or three aspirants in this race, the nomination likely to go to a candidate er county.

Schley of Colorado Springs, although still a believer in woman suffrage in theory, writes, that practically after watching it for many years in Colorado, she considers it a failure. She adds: I can see nothing that it has accomplished in its sixteen years here that has not been done equally in other states where they have no women's suffrage. Our political ring remains as corrupt as ever and the addition of women's votes in the down town districts, has been only to double its purchasable vote. Mrs. E. B. Field, Jr., of Denver, writes: I cannot see that the advent of women in politics has in any way improved conditions and it has only had the effect of driving to the polls thousand of women who did not wish to vote, but who were forced to do so to offset, in a measure, the votes of the undesirable part of the female population who have the reputation of voting early and often. I am sure that I voice the opinion of a large percentage of Colorado women when I make the statement that we should be glad to see the franchise withdrawn. Mrs. W. H. Dickson, also of Denver, expresses a similar opinion: Woman's suffrage, as far as I can see, has produced no good effect. It has not improved politics in the state and it only makes a number of votes that can be bought, or given through friendship, because women, as a rule, do not understand politics. If space permitted, similar expressions of opinion might be quoted from Miss Harriett P. Farnsworth, Miss Helen L. Ballou, Miss Carolyne H. Marbourg, and Mrs. M. H. Williams of Colorado Springs, and Mrs. Harry English, Mrs. Chas. Mac A. Willcox, Mrs. E. B. Field Sr., Mrs. Harry K. Brown, Mrs. W. P. McPhee Miss Geneviève Chandler Phipps, Mrs. Henry J. Hersey, Mrs. F. Louis Spraynn, Mrs. J. B. Hunter and Mrs. Lester B. Bridaham of Denver, all of whom write to the Ladies Journal in corroboration of Mrs. Goddard. Such a volume of testimony as this, from well-informed sources, is not to be lightly dismissed. Suffragists express great distaste for what they call "man-made laws." They insist that only by granting women the ballot can society be assured of good laws for the protection of women and children and the general regeneration of society. Yet they betray a curious irritation, when a comparison is made between the legislation of suffrage and non-suffrage sta moreover, will be held throughout the year 1915 and not only for six months. Another thing, which may not count for much in the long run—the San Diego exposition is already begun. The organization is completed, the president of the United States has personally and also by proxy officiated at the breaking of ground, and congress is considering a resolution which it will doubtless pass before adjourning, authorizing the president to invite all the Latin-American republics to participate by sending exhibits. Without such formal invitation, Brazil has already announced through its special commissioner that it will erect a permanent building and make a fine exhibit, at a cost probably of $1,000,000. Congress, recognizing the great educational value of expositions, has already stood ready to encourage all of them in every proper way. San Diego has been represented at Washington for several months by the director-general of the exposition, Col. D. C. Collier, and a committee appointed to secure from congress the resolution already mentioned, as well as to look after other matters of importance to the exposition to be held in San Diego. Col. Collier is a republican, and something of a politician, they say, in his own balliwick. He had to meet on a business basis the democratic majority in congress and secure sympathetic co-operation and support from it. Many persons told him at the outset, having the laudable purpose and intention of saving him trouble, annoyance and expense, that he might as well pack his trunks and hike homeward, leaving his affairs in the hands of a tender Providence, because they assured him—congress was too busy with the affairs of the special session to pay any attention to exposition resolutions; and "where was San Diego, anyway," they practically asked him, for more than one professiona real ignorance of the city which one day will be known to every newspaper reader in the world as well as Liverpool, New York, Hong Kong, or Hamburg are now. But the Colonel is not the kind of a man who puts his hand to the plow and then turns back. Moreover (and it is said merely in the interest of truth and to show that the Colonel is not an ordinary place-seeker), the exposition was not contributing one dollar to the expenses of the director-general, who declined to permit any of his expenses to be met by anyone save himself. It is believed now that congress will pass the resolution desirifully to dwell upon these should be clearly recognized Nevertheless, if San Diego shall fail to obtain their outcome will be the re garding those plain trust.

They insist that only by granting women the ballot can society be assured of good laws for the protection of women and children and the general regeneration of society. Yet they betray a curious irritation, when a comparison is made between the legislation of suffrage and non-suffrage states. Two legislatures this year have acted favorably on bills to limit the hours of labor for women and children in factories to fifty-four hours a week. Are they suffrage states—Colorado or Idaho, for example,—which are taking this step? Not at all. They are non-suffrage states, New York and Massachusetts. An ex-governor of Idaho was this year brought on to describe to the New York legislature what woman-suffrage had done for the state and how much the women of New York need it. This suggested to Miss Alice Hill Chittenden, chairman of the legislative committee of the New York state association opposed to woman suffrage, a comparison of the laws of the two states. Miss Chittenden found that in New York a married woman controls her own earnings; in Idaho a husband controls everything his wife earns. In New York a married woman can hold her property entirely free from the control of her husband. In Idaho, a married woman can get control of her property only by going into court and showing that her husband is mismanaging it. In New York, husband and wife are equal guardians of their children. In Idaho the husband is the legal guardian. In New York well as Liverpool, New York, Hong Kong, or Hamburg are now. But the Colonel is not the kind of a man who puts his hand to the plow and then turns back. Moreover (and it is said merely in the interest of truth and to show that the Colonel is not an ordinary place-seeker), the exposition was not contributing one dollar to the expenses of the director-general, who declined to permit any of his expenses to be met by anyone save himself. It is believed now that congress will pass the resolution desired by San Diego, some of the most prominent leaders having promised their active support for it. But aside from this really important matter, the San Diego legislative committee has done a great deal already in Washington in the way of securing government sympathy, support and assistance. It gained from the president his assent to press an electric button in the east room of the White House to start the ceremonies on ground-breaking day, and it also persuaded him to send a personal representative in the person of John Barrett, director general of the Pan-American Union, to turn the first spadeful of earth on that occasion, the second being turned by U. S. Grant, Jr., son of the famous Civil War hero, and president of the Panama-California exposition. To go into details of the committee's work in Washington would be discursive and at this time somewhat premature, but it may be said that the personality of Director-General Collier has impressed itself indelibly on all with whom he has come in contact. He has won through the force of his personality, enthusiasm and aggressiveness, and at the same time he has shown that he possesses the rare ability to wait, when to wait is the gentlemen have eliminated by announcing that candidates and it looks doubtful now if any others the race.

He is a wonderful man, and is entitled in the greatest credit and highest recommendation for his exposition work in Washington." NEW ELEVENTH DISTRICT Many Men Mentioned as Possible Congressional Candidates The passage of the re-apportionment bill by the senate, settles the fact that California will have 11 congressmen for the next 10 years and there is a renewal of talk about candidates in the new eleventh district. The most interesting news in this connection is the announcement that Senator Wright, who has been generally picked as the "organization" candidate will not make the race. The San Diego Union says: "It will be greatly for San Diego's interest that the first representative from the eleventh district shall be a resident of this county. It appears probable, too, that if the republicans of San Diego county shall unite upon a strong man, he will win the nomination at the primary. On the other hand should two or three republican aspirants in this county enter the race, the nomination will be likely to go to a candidate in some other county. It ought to be unnecessary to dwell upon these facts. The should be clearly recognized by all. Nevertheless, if San Diego county, shall fail to obtain the prize, that outcome will be the result of disregarding those plain truths. "It is not the purpose now to suggest candidates. It may not be amiss, however, to state that one strong republican who has been urged to enter the race, has declined to do so. The Union is authorized by Senator Leroy A. Wright to say" Women and Stocks. Women speculators have a habit of giving to brokers orders with a string attached to them. A woman who owned some bank stock asked a broker to sell it at 250 if he thought she could not get any more for it. The market in this stock had been inactive for months, and 250 was the highest price ever recorded for it. The next day the broker had a chance to sell the stock at 250. It so happened that on the same day a lively demand for this bank stock developed, and before the day was over it was selling at 300. The broker wrote to his woman customer that he had sold her stock for $250 a share and would she send her certificate to him for delivery to the purchaser? She refused to deliver the stock. "You ought to have known better than to sell it for 250," she remonstrated. "I am going to sell it today myself for 300." It was not until the broker appealed to the courts that he succeeded in getting the stock from the woman.—Strand Magazine. Pretty Fine Scratches. Most people consider a polished surface as something absolutely smooth—that is, something with no scratches on it whatever. To polish a thing, however, the very reverse is done to it. It is filled with very fine scratches. All eyeglass lenses, glass for mirrors, furniture, etc., are rubbed with fine emery paper and later with an extremely fine powder which gives the finishing touches in the shape of very fine scratches. Now the question arises as to just how fine the scratches must be—that is, how far apart they must be, for big scratches a good distance apart give anything but a polished surface. The answer is that the scratches or ridges between must be less than one-quarter the wave length of the light that falls on the surface for the light to be reflected and thus give the effect of a polished surface. This is less than one two-hundred-thousandth of an inch for light waves. No breaking up of the waves is caused, and they consequently are reflected in their WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THAT? Most any one can be an editor. All the editor has to do is to sit at a desk six days out of the week, four weeks out of the month, and twelve months out of the year, and edit such stuff as this: "Mrs. Jones of Cactus Creek let a can opener slip last week and cut herself in the pantry." "A mischievous lad of Piketown threw a stone and struck Mr. Pike in the alley, last Thursday." "John Doe climbed on the roof of his house last week looking for a leak and fell, striking on the back porch." "While Harold Green was escorting Miss Violet Wise from the church social last Saturday night a savage dog attacked them and bit Mr. Green several times on the public square." "Isaiah Trimmer of Running Creek was playing with a cat Friday when it scratched him on the veranda." "Mr. Fang, while harnessing his broncho last Saturday was kicked just south of the corn crib." DOMESTIC SUPERSTITIONS The signs and wonders of the house hold have markedly diminished in the last quarter century. Many of them were picturesque and diverting. Few of them were taken seriously enough to be harmful. It is easy to trace several of them to their sources in domestic economy. A group of them, for example, had to do with the approach of an unexpected guest. The scissors or a knife sticking up straight in the floor, a dropped dishcloth, or a long, floating stem in a cup of tea—all of these foretold arrivals. They had the agreeable double effect of keeping the housekeeping up to a high mark of preparedness, and of breaking monotony by the pleasure of anticipated society. If the prophesied caller fol- er county. It ought to be unnecessary to dwell upon these facts. The should be clearly recognized by all. Nevertheless, if San Diego county, shall fail to obtain the prize, that outcome will be the result of disregarding those plain truths. "It is not the purpose now to suggest candidates. It may not be amiss, however, to state that one strong republican who has been urged to enter the race, has declined to do so. The Union is authorized by Senator Leroy A. Wright to say that he has decided not to be a candidate, that he has so informed some of his supporters, and that his decision is irrevocable. To republicans all over the proposed eleventh district Mr. Wright's decision will be a disappointment. There were many who believed that he would go into the congressional primary, and they were confident that he would win there as brilliantly as he won in the county senatorial primary last November. "However, there is no lack of congressional timber in San Diego county. But what is needed now is to unite upon the best man—especially upon one who will be strong in other counties as well as in his own. There are such men in this county, and the one who has the largest following should have the full party support at the primary, the same support that was formerly given to the nominee of a convention." As matters stand today there are only three candidates who seem to be discussed seriously—Francis Cuttle of Riverside, E. D. Roberts of San Bernardino (present state treasurer), and Lyman M. King, editor of the Redlands Facts. There may, of course, be many others before the primaries are held next year, and Assemblyman Geo. R. Freeman of Corona and Editor E. F. Howe of the El Centro Standard are among those who are investigating the situation. Several others have been mentioned as candidates, says the Riverside Press, and the list includes the following: Senator Estudillo of Riverside, A. F. Call of Corona, C. C. Chapman of Fullerton, Assemblyman Clyde Bishop of Santa Ana, L. R. Kirby and Capt. Sehon of San Diego, A. G. Kendall and R. C. Harbison of San Bernardino, and E. P. Clarke of Riverside. Most of these gentlemen have eliminated themselves by announcing that they are not candidates and it looks somewhat doubtful now if any one of them enters the race. Mr. Kirby made a remarkable race against Congressman fine scratches. Now the question arises as to just how fine the scratches must be—that is, how far apart they must be, for big scratches a good distance apart give anything but a polished surface. The answer is that the scratches or ridges between must be less than one-quarter the wave length of the light that falls on the surface for the light to be reflected and thus give the effect of a polished surface. This is less than one two-hundred-thousandth of an inch for light waves. No breaking up of the waves is caused, and they consequently are reflected in their original form.—New York Tribune. The Offense Defined. General Craft, an attorney of Terre Haute, Ind., was once called into a jewelry store in the town to settle a dispute. "See here, general," explained the proprietor, "If I take a watch from Mr. Smith here and make repairs that cost me 10 cents and then keep it hanging up for a week and charge him $6 when he comes to get it, what percentage do I make? We have been figuring for half an hour and only get up to 900 per cent, and that is but a dollar, so we decided to leave it to you." "Well," said the general gravely, "you must know that it is a fact, and it has been demonstrated by calculating machines, that at certain points in progressive numbers the law governing them changes. In your case the law would change long before it reached the $0 and would run out of percentage and into what is known and designated as larceny." Open Door and a Light. The wives of north country colliers observe a very touching and pathetic custom when an accident occurs in the pit. Directly it is known to the wife of a collier that an accident has happened in the pit where her husband works and that his fate is uncertain she throws open the house door, and, however inclement the weather may be, she keeps the door open and a candle burning in the window night and day till the man is brought home, dead or alive. In some cases the door has remained open and the candle alight during several weeks.—London Graphic. A Curious Superstition.

Canal Will Eliminate Dangers to Shipping BOSTON, Aug. 12.—An army of men are working on the Cape Cod Canal, which is about half completed and which is regarded as one of the most stupendous engineering jobs ever undertaken in the east. The job is expected to be completed in a short time. For New England in general and Boston in particular, looking at it from the business standpoint, the completion of the Cape Cod Canal will mean the biggest thing in generations. From the standpoint of the shippers and the ship companies,the canal is to mean the greatest thing ever for it will eliminate the dangers of sailing around the cape. This canal is to cut several ways. It cuts out—or will do so—just sixty-five miles of water travel, necessary now because all craft must come or go, by way of the cape,但 this will not be necessary after the canal is constructed. Then, too, it cuts out any risk of shipwrecks such as have taken a terrible toll of life STUMPED “You know that grocer of ours?” exclaimed a Lakewood lady excitedly last Saturday night. “Yes,” answered her husband. “What about him?” “他 gave me short weight this evening.” “Why didn’t you call him down for it?” “I didn’t notice it until after I had paid him a plugged half dollar, and then what could I do?” We have rebored four gas engine cylinders, ranging in size from 12 to 75 h.p.
