INVESTIGATION
BY COL. WINFIELD JONES.
WASHINGTON, Oct. lfi—(Special
Correspondence.)—Women suffragists
[ who served prison terms in the Dis
trict of Columbia jail will demand a
congressional investigation at the De
cember session, not only of the penal
institutions in the national capital,
which are declared to be a disgrace
to humanity and a reproach to the
District of Columbia government, but
of all prisons under jurisdiction of the
federal /government. This was an
nounced today by Miss Alice Paul,
chairman of the National Woman’s
party.
A resolution demanding the investi
gation will be introduced and passed
at the coming convention of the Wo
man’s party here.
More than 500 women were arrested
in Washington during the time that
the suffgragists were holding demon
strations in the national capital to im
press President Wilson and congress
with the necessity of passage of the
nineteenth amendment. More than 100
of them served prison sentences, eith
er at the Oecoquun workhouse or the
district jail.
These women were exercising the
right of peaceful and lawful assem
blage, guaranteed under the constitu
tion, but were arrested time after time
in the streets of the capital, many of
them being seized and hustled to
police court in patrol wagons from in
front of the White House, without
President Wilson lifting a finger to
prevent the outrages. Many instances
of brutal treatment by the Washington
police came to light during these ar
rests. Many of the women arrested
were of the best and proudest fami
lies in the country, and most of them
were from other cities than Washing
ton.
A single nod from the autocrat in
the White House would have halted
those outrages on American woman
hood. The district commissioners and
the Washington police knew the
White House cared nothing for the
woman suffrage cause (at that time).
Later when the cause of woman suf
frage triumphed by passage of the
nineteenth amendment by a Republi
can congress and was ratified by a
large number of •Republican state leg
islatures; President Wilson experi
enced a “deathbed repentance” regard
ing woman suffrage, and has since
appointed women to high office, prac
tically on the eve of the November
election, in an evident endeavor to in
fluence tbe woman’s vote. This trans
parent political device lias not fooled
the women, however.
A large number of the suffragists
who suffered in the district jail aid
workhouse have filed affidavits here
regarding their treatment in prison,
which are corroborated by affidavits
of prison officials. These affidavits
disclose a condition in the district jail
and workhouse which reads like a
narrative from the Middle Ages or an
account of a penal institution in So
viet Russia. Filth, bad food, disease,
terrible sanitary conditions, and ne
glect of sick prisoners are charged in
the affidavits. The suffragists declare
they were neglected, starved, and mal
treated while imprisoned for making
public demonstrations of the cause of
woman suffrage. They declare their
complaints were ignored by President
Wilson and the Washington officials.
MADGE KENNEDY IN
DAUGHTER OF MINE’
IS PLEASING COMEDY
“Daughter ol' Mine,” is a story ol
the sunny side of life. Clean-cut
sparkling comedy, of which Madge
Kennedy is past mistress. As Rosa
lie, tiie little Jewish stenographer,
site “dresses the naked truth” to
such good advantage that she scores
victory over her adoring father, the
obnoxious marriage broker and- her
respected employer; wins the boy of
her choice and ’neverything. It’s a
regular play of a regular girl, and
one that all regular people will en
joy. And it’s being repeated for the
last time, tonight at the Empress.
“East Lynne,” oe of those inimit
able Mack Sennett comedies, and a
topical reel complete the program.
Friday and Saturday, Mabel Nor
mand comes in "Peck’s Bad Girl,”
the hilarious story of the town
scamp and the city vamp. Oh. but
she was a "Devil in Her Own Home
Town,”—just the kind of irrepress
ible, naughty imps that is synony
mous for “Mabel.”

COLD BAY HAS
TAKEN LEAD IN
CLAIMS FILED
Other Districts Show Falling
Off But Big Number of Ap
plications From That Field
Keep Filings at Normal
While staking of oil claims is con
tinuing in several of the fields into
which prospectors have worked their
way, in only one field has there been
anything like the activity during the
past month that characterized the
movement during the summer sea
son. The rush of Cold bay and other
Peninsula districts, according to a
statement made by Register Frank
A. Boyle of the U. S. land office at
Juneau, has not slackened but there
has been a substantial decrease in
the number of applicants filed from
other fields.
From the Cold Bay field alone
between September 12 and October
21, a total of 45 applications cov
ering 115,002 acres were filed for
oil leasing and prospecting permits.
Only the big influx of applications
from this district kept the movement
as a whole up to normal, explained
Mr. Boyle. The month previous ap
proximately 130,000 acres were cov
ered in the 73 applications made for
permits.
“During the period between the
above dates, 56 applicatiohs were
received at this office covering an
acreage of 138.240,” says the state
ment. “This brings the total num
ber of acres in all districts under
this office well above the half mil
li )n mark since the new oil leasing
law became effective last February.
Last month's fi'.ing includes: Cold
bay, 45 applications; 115,200 acres;
Iliamna, six for 15,360 acres; Ka
talla, two for 1,940 acres,' Yakataga,
Wasilla and Anchorage one each for
2.560 acres, making a total for the
month of 138,240 acres.
The total list of applications filed
and the locations of the claims fol
low:
Acres
Cold bay. 103 263,680

Chitina bay . 3 7,630
Wasila . 2 ",120
Seward . 2 3,520
Anchorage . 1 2,560
Total .. 234 526,833
There has been considerable stak
ing of claims done in the Aniak
chak bay field. This lies south
west of the Cold bay field, about
100 miles by the water route. On
an air line it is approximately 45
miles from the west field of Cold
bay. This is generally regarded
as one of tile most likely districts
in Alaska. The formation, it is said,
is considered favorable and as far as
is known is still in place. Excellent
surface indications have been found.
In this district 22 claims have been
surveyed and many more, it is be
lieved, have been located but no ap
plications for permits have yet been
received.
