Kaiu, snow, bail and a little bit of tbunderatlon

J B. Kennard has rented his property at "Twin

have gone to live with their daugkter,~Mrs. J. J.

W. Bcott Pierce has sold his farm to James
Bnchanan. Mr. Pierce will sell his personal
property in a short time and remove to Camden.
N. J., and Mr. Bnchanan will take possession ot
his new purchase on, or belore March 25th. The
price paid was (2,200.
Mr. SB. Nesbitt, who has been Very sick from
an attack of acute indigestion coupled with kid.
ney trouble, is much better, and we are pleased to
say thbt hopes are now entertained that he will
bo in be about again.
We notice by the Oxford News, that Mrs.
Susanna Woodrow of Vinegar Hill, w ho has been
ill for some time, has improved considerably in
the past week. Now, this sounds all right, and
we are glad to hear it. But who in thunder is
Susanna Woodrow?
We see by the Philadelphia Record that Ceci
Smeltzer’s hired man shot a fellow whom h<
caught stealing corn. This is hardly correct. The
fact Is, Jourdan just had a vision—only a vision.
They say that Walter Cain, colored, who dwells
on the suburbs of Horse-Heaven has started a new
graveyard.
Theodore Sharpless is building a henhonse4ox6o.
and "Edd” says it is four stories high. After it is
finished and the bens gets down to business, there
is no doubt about "Dody" having eggs to burn.
One of our neighbors reports a hen that got busy
last Wednesday afternoon and laid three eggs,
and it wasn’t a very pleasant afternoon for work
either.

BUNNYSIDK.
Woman Suffrage.
Editors of Midland Journal: k
Through your valuable paper we wish to present
fairly—at least we hope—the petition that is being
Circulated throughout the State of Maryland, in
the interest of Woman Suffrage. It reads thus:
To the Senate and House of Representatives of the U. S.
“We the undersigned citizens of the United
States, river 21 years of age, hereby petition your
Honorable Body to submit to the Legislature ol
the several States for ratification, an amendment
to the National Constitution which shall enable
women to vote.”
This petition has already received the signatures
of sixty of the citizens of your borough and while
but a small portion of it bus been canvassed we
have every reason to believe that we will receive
no less a hearty response from the remaining citi
zens. Other petitions are in thf hands of able
men and women throughout the County and the
State. The very ready response by the heads ol
business firms and those in all walks of life has
borne home to the workers in this cause, the fact
that our citizens rank among the first in intelli
gence and progression. No public educational
work has ever been done along this line in this
section, and it truly shows that our people are
. above the average in progressive thought; and
this too we would say, that, the class of citizens
today who ask for the ballot are of no mean
standing. For years ago the very best college
and universities throughout the civilized woili
were opened to woman; she immediately tookbei
place therein and has stood shoulder to shouldei
with her brother in intellectual progress. And so
it is not lack of brain power that can be held
against her any longer in this field of action.
The one argument that confronts us yet offered
by chivalric manhood, who has n it yet looked
beneath the surface, is, that the poll booth is nr
fit place for women. The writer has been privi
leged to attend an election in the Stute of Kansas
where husband and wife, brother and sister stood
at the ballot box side by side, the coarse jest, the
. profane language, the lighted cigar were not
present. It was but a social gathering ot dignified
men and women. And too wherever the ballot
has been granted to woman the liquor business
has gone out.
Another argument that has confronted us is
that it will produce family discord; lut why
fathers and sons do not vote alike, not unfrequent
ly three parties are represented in the same
family- We have moved 100 far along the line oi
politics and religion tor sensible people not to
’ respect each others opinions. And a home where
any quarreling would occur on this account there
wOnld be differences anyway and they might as
well quarrel about something of some account.
Again it is said that the lower type of woman
hood would buy or sell their votes, but wherein
lies the argument tor wherever there exists a
fallen woman there exists a lallen man.
Another argument that is offered by some
women as well as men is: That all women do not
want suffrage and would not exercise it if granted.
■ trne. but is this an argument against it? Today
thousands of men within the U. S. who have the
right ot suffrage, but use it not. It would be just
as fair to exclude women from Universities and
Colleges, from the business world because all
women did not wish to enter.
And lor those, if unhappily they yet exist, who
believe in the inferiority of women we would
quote the Scottish Bard:
Auld Nature swears the lovely dears,
Her noblest work she classes,
■ Her prentice band she tried on man—
And then she made the lasses.
We do ask for the ballot and we ask for it with
higher quallffoatious than at present exists for our
brother. We ask that the low types ot immp
grants who flood our shores be barred from the
ballot forever It they do not rise to the standard-
For we do know thata vast population of ignorant
immigrants are noted in our large cities at every
election. They are brought up to a magistrate
by the ward agent of the parly which has captured
them, declared their allegiance to the United
States through an interpreter and are forthwith
placed on the roll. This"is but one Illustration ot
the hundreds of illegal and Ignorant voting until
today the best citizens are frequently beard to
say, the political world is. too low in the mire for
them. Things go from bad to worse, until like
the State of Pa. the very name becomes a synonym
of shame at home and abroad.
Aqd today we do feel assured, if the ballot is
conferred on woman with the restrictions, that,
she believes rightfully belongs to all such privi
leges regardless ot sex, that there will be some
political house-cleaning done every spring and
fall until we emerge into a sweeter and a purer
political atmosphere.
The course we have taken we mean to pursue—
be it long or short—until full franchise tn state
and nation is ours.

The stormy weather prevented a good many

A Question.
Communicated.
A report is current among us that in the very
near future bow’ing alley and pool room will be
opened within our borough. An expression of
general dissatisfaction is heard upon all sides by
the very best citizens of the borough and adjoin
ing districts. We are told that it is lawful and
therefore cannot be prevented. But why not. we
have known many other things that were legally
right and yet morally wrong that have been
barred from communities by the citizens who
were determined to protect the best interests ol
that community. In this case money must be
expended to prepare for and carry on the business
and who is going to make it a paying business—
surely not the busy man whose dayß are given up
to that which will bring comfort and happiness
t) his family and add his mite towards the bc?t
interest* of the community at large. Such sup
port must and twill come from the man whose
family already stands in need of the barest
lecessities of life from the men who are already
t burden upon their families for support—or even
■vorse yet from; the (immature youth whose few
hard earned dollars that should be saved toward
itting himself for a useful and honorable citizen
(hip,—they will find their way into the till ot the
jool keeper. And what is given this youth in re
turn. We know not what great scheme for the
mental and moral improvement.or renderings
lust equivalent lor your money’s value may be
ievised by the keeper at Rising Sun, but we do
know upon good authority that wherever a ten
in alley and a billiard saloon has existed else
where, that its patrons received as their share ol
the proceeds, wasted hours, a love for low corn
companionship and an appetite and thirst for
that which low ers the mental, moral and physical
beings

Not Coughing Today?
Yet you may cough tomorrow! Better be prepared for it
when it comes. Ask your doctor about keeping Ayer’s
Cherry Pectoral in the house. Then when the hard cold
or cough first appears you have a doctor’s medicine at
hand. Your doctor’s approval of its use will certainly
set all doubt at rest. Do as he says. He knows.
