LOCALS
Among those from distant parts of
the state who called to meet other
believers in votes for women were
:.r. and Yirs. Charles Beemer of
Chinook, Dr. Elma B. A. Arnette
and Mrs. W. S. Evans of Culbertson,
Mrs. John C. Duff of Chinook and
Mrs. J. W. Agnew of Great Falls.
Miss Jeannette Rakin received a
telegram from Mrs. J. N. Sample
of Clyde Park anouncing that a dele
gation is to come from there to
march in the suffrage parade Friday
night. These Clyde Park women met
Dr. Anna Shaw at Livingston yester
day and will accompany her to this
city today.
Mrs. Mary Tocher came in today
with 20 suffragists from that city.
All will be in the parade tomorrow
night.
Mrs. George Gilmore of Glendive
is due here today to be in the Glen
dive delegation in the suffrage pa
rade.
Mr. and Mrs. Charles P. Irish and
daughter, Elizabeth; Mrs. J. Re.
Sievers, IMrs. Grace Rabbitt and lit
tle son, Jack, motored over from
Butte this morning.
Out at the suffrage booth Rev.
R. M. Craven of Townsend dropped
in for a chat and left this state
ment: "I have lived where women
vote, and had I a thousand votes
this fall they would all cbe marked
X for woman suffrage. If the hand
that rocks the cradle ruled, the world,
then give that hand 'the vote." Rev.
Craven has been a resident of Mon
tana for 46 years.
"While I was in Brooklyn last
summer," said Miss Dorothy Blake,
"I noticed that few women drove
their own cars. One day myself
and girl friend, who drove her own
car, were 'passing a crowd of small
tboys. They stared, anld then one
exclaimed: "Gee, look at the suf
fragette"-implying that one smart
enough to drive her own automobile
must be a suffragist."
INDIAN SUFFRAGETTES.
Mrs. Virginia Billedeaux of Brown
ing was an interested visitor today.
This fine looking Indian woman says
the suffrage sentiment on the Black
foot reservation is quite strong.
"Yes, nearly every Indian woman
thinks that 'she ought to have a
right to help make the laws as well
as the men. Most of our children
are well educated and hold property
and must obey the laws-so why
not learn to be citizens? My daugh
ter, Genevieve, is a smart girl and
will Ibe glad to take charge of the
literature you send us. She is em
ployed in town, while I live on a
ranch.
"O, we all know Helen P. Clark!
The Blackfeet Indians know her to
be our own dear friend. I used to
live in Helena in the old days, when
Mliss Clark lived here. She is quite
well, and told me to remember her
most kindly to her old friends in
'this ;part of the country."
SUFFRAGE CHICKEN FANCIER.
No one exhibitor at the state fair
is more delighted over the big prizes
than Miss Georgia C. Young of Hel
ena. Miss Young is the proud pos
essor of a large numtber of fancy
chickens. One of the lovely Ancona
cockrells won first prize; a pretty
Orpington cockrell carried off the
yellow ribbon, 'but it was left to a
beauciful little Arcona pullet to win
the sweeptakes.
Miss Young is one of the :best
known women in Helena, and for
merly was superintendent of St.
Peter's hospital. This enterprising
woman finds that chicken raising
is a most lucrative and pleasant
business for those who desire to be
independent. To meet Miss Young
is to be couvinced that she is happy
in business life.
INJUSTICE TO FARM WOMEN
Organizations of rural women are
multiplying with suprising rapidity.
Texas has a Farmer Woman Club
which has for its object improvement
of the farm , ,msn in enviroment
and ofl rtunit United Farm
Womans of th ou.' is the name of
another uew r15W ization. Kansas
has a g;e Inu, I)e: of women in its
Agric.lal Co. ' -g who are study
ing va "'S 1: -e f ,home econ
omics a I rual ,or Lhoms. The Wis
consin -.iry 2 .l reports many

bookke, 1g. A_ a f.armer's meeting
held in -lringfi( il, Mo. more women
than n:, a were in attendence and
silos, al"'lfa ani dry-farming were
the chi.tf topirs discussed. The
Presider' of thi- International Con
gress o. Farm Women has been
decoratr,,: with ihe Order oft Agri
culture of Belguiin. These are but
a few instance- of the interests
and activities of farm-women and
illustrate forcibly the injustice of
depriving this important and intelli
gent class of women of the vote to
protect their investments and ex
press their opinions.

MERE MAN'S OPINION
We have not yet asked them to
join the militia, but if we ever do,
there is no doubt but we will have
as many Joan or Arcs as we have
had Washingtons. If I belived every
woman in Montana would vote dry,
I would vote for the ammendment.
If I believed every woman would
vote wet. I would be a dictator
if I denied them ithe right. If I was
assured they would vote for a con
tinuation of capitalism, and no douibt
a majority of them will, .I would
be doing an injustice to mankind
to deny them the right to help in
the governing of a country in which
they are as vitally interested as the
men. With me, as I believe it should
be with all fair minded men, not
as a question of expediency or per
sonal advantage, but one of right and
justice. And until some person can
show me much better reasons than
I have ever yet heard why they
should be denied, the right to vote.
I shall continue to work and vote
to that end.
