WEN'S BILL IS KILLED BY REPUBLICANS

| The bill would make it possible that | any female voter...who possesses' the other qualifications prescribed by i law, shall be eligible to every public ■ oflict; or employment created by any! law or statute of this state, or any ordinance, by law or resolution of any municipality of this state, anything ; in such law, statute, by-law,, ordin- \ anee or resolution to the contrary not 1
withstanding.”
It would also make many women eligible to fill election board and registration ottices, and would grant them the right to serve on juries. ! It was the ideas of the framers of ! the measure to give women an equal Participation in state, county and Municipal affairs inasmuch as they; have been granted the right to vote ' for presidential electors in this state. ! Although it is confidentally expected ! that the federal suffrage amendment '' will be ratified before November 2. ! there is u question in the minds of a ! great number of attorneys whether I even then women would have the ' right under the present Indiana laws to hold offices and to sit on juries. j Senator Elsby and Representative I Azby said that while they had design ! erf the bill for immediate conditions, I it would also add an additional safe ' guard to the rights of women in 1 case they are admitted to complete ^ suffrage before the election. The measure was not looked upon . kindly by the administration crowd j that is rushing through Governor' poodrich’s “cut and dried" cure-all program. The House bill was refered to the committee on elections and when it Came up there only the i lone democratic member, Representa- 1 tive Roscoe U. Baker of Mt. Vernon, defended it. The Republican major- ! tty promptly recommended that it” be indefinitely postponed because of lack of merit at this time.” That was the end of the measure. Although the Democrats will attempt to get it on the floor of the House, there is little prospect of its passage because of the Republican majority. Scarcely as much courtesy was shown Senator Khmer's measure in, the Sen-
ate.
Although it had been referred to the committee on elections there, it was found after several days of waiting car<4essly lying around on the clerk’s dusk. The clerk insisted that it was a mistake but there is a well refined belief among th democrats

GREATER TERRE HAUTE CLUB CLUB TO SEND TRUCK TRAIN TO GKEENC ASTLE, SATURDAY JI LT 24—USE OF MOTOR ON FARM IS RECOMMENDED
The advance committee representing the Greater Terre Haute Club was here today making arangements for the visit of the truck train which is
schedulul to arrive in Greencastle at 10:4.'t A. M. on Saturday July 24th. This motorcade is visiting the territory surrounding Terre Haute for the purpose of demonstrating the utility of the motor truck in the farm field. No sales will be made and no business will be solicited while on this tour, as it is made for purely educat-
ional purposes.
It is a known fact that the pneumatic tired truck will accomplish what it takes four teams of horses to lo, and that the truck does not eoniume anything unless it works, while t takes the product of five acres to naintain each horse, regardless of whether it works or not. Demonstration of the utility of the truck on a nearby farm will be given while here. The train carries its own music and a concert will he giv-
en both at meetings.
the afternoon and night
Farm experts accompany the train and will give the farmers attending the meeting constructive information of value on modern farming. The object is not to sell the farmer, but to show him what the truck can accomplish for him. One of the most important developements in the use of motor trucks is as an aid to marketing, since they enable the business man of the farm to enter into this phase of his work more readily, A local committee consisting of C. C. Gillen, Chairman, George Christie, Herschell Foster. D. L. Jackson,

Mr. Lyon is very modest in the face of his achievement and refuses to take the affair seriously, which under the circumstances is most becoming. There was a meeting of ‘humiliated’ golfers this morning, it is said, at which meeting it was agreed that a week of gruelling practise would be indulged in, in an attempt to take away from Mr. Lyon, this week end, his golfing honors. When informed of the determination of his rivals, Mr. Lyons said, “ Well they can’t take it away from me before Friday, so I’ve got them eating out of my hand for several days yet.”
I SE TAB TO STOP CINCH BUGS
Tar is being used in an effort t) stop the progress of the cinch bugs which are eating up the corn fields on the farm of Melvin Seigelin, near Cory. County Agent Abbott returned to Cory this morning to help erect the tar barricade. The two corn fields infested were sprayed with kerosene emulsion with Doud’s big power sprayer, but the rain interfe ed with the effectivehess. The rain also made vulnerable the dust furrow thrown up across thi fields to check the spread of the bugs. County Agent Abbott then decided to spread tar in the furrow and several barrel Is of the sticky stuff was taken to Cory to check the pests. There is no question but that when the chinch bugs get their feet in that tar they’ll stop marching.—Brazil Times.
