"Out-Classing Harding
If 4he women of "America are given opportunity to vote at the
coming presidential election, it. will be due largely to the efforts
of , Governor Cox, .who L appealed personally to the governors of
democratic states; to call special sessions to give the ballot. to
women. In this he repeated the request of the democratic party
as contained in the San Francisco' platform. As a result of this
appeal, the legislatures of Tennessee and North Carolina have
been called in special session to act upon suffrage. : .
Senator Harding refused to make a similar appeal for the
women to the governors of republican states and the governors of
Connecticut and Vermont have both xef used to call special ses
sipns. Harding's attitude caused no surprise, for he has been
lukewarm on' the subject of suffrage in the senate.
Republican members of the Tennessee legislature at their
caucas Monday refused to endorse suffrage, tho their endorse
ment would have assured its ratification, and robbed the demo
crats of some of the credit for giving votes to women, for
Tennessee . will , be the .thirty-sixth state and put the federal
amendment into effect if it is ratified. ri, ' i.
On this subject, as on the peace treaty, the republicans have
been outgeneraled by the democrats and Cox is proving more
aggressive and more astute than Harding, and the better poli
tician which is not surprising, for Harding has no constructive
achievement to his record, and probably ranks below the average
oi senators in initiative, activity and accomplishment.
But then Lodge, Penrose and Smoot, who picked Harding as
tneir laithiul lollower, opposed suffrage, primaries and every
other bit of progressive legislation of fered the countyr and it is
not to be expected that as pesidehtial "candidate he will develop
a luugjcaoinoiu'iuicigu to a reactionary nature.

Peak of H. C. L. Passed?
Sugar has taken a tumble in New York City to' 17 cents a
pound with raw sugar selling at 13.04 a drop of 10 cents a
pound over the high level of three months ago. It is evidently
impossible for the profiteer to artificially maintain the high
prices longer.
It is apparent that the peak in high prices, both for materials
and labor; has been passed and that unless the law of supply and
demand is too seriously interfered with by monopolies, there will
be a gradual return to normal.
However a strenuous effort is underway to maintain high
prices by curtailing production. Mills and factories are closing
down to prevent a surplus and create a shortage, at the
same time force a reduction in wages and perhaps influence the
political situation. .

EVIL TIMES
Oh, these .are crucial times, my friends; each day presents
its warming; and every time the night descends we think there'll
be no morning. Our statesmen rag us from the stump, until
they re in a lather, and say we're going to the dump, where all
the bow-wows gather. Our sacred rights are trodden flat, our
bulwarks badly shaken," and if we don't do this or that we're
bound t olose our bacon. It is the bogie, gray and old, of Presi
dential seasons, the wraith that makes our feet grow cold, and
underlines our reasons. At other times we do not think of chaos,
in our hurry; our bulwarks may be on the blink, but we don't
pause to worry. The country seems to slide along, and nothing
yet has wrecked it, and if its works are badly wrong, we simply
don't detect it. And then we put up candidates to cop the White
House honor, and these potential magistrates insist the land's a
goner. If t'other fellow wins the prize, becomes the nation's
master, then we'll confront, with startled eyes, all kinds of black
disaster, once m four years we get this scare, when candidates

and that is to dissolve it. This destroys
it entirely. To do this. Just get about
four ounces Jot, plain, tordinary li

scalp and rub it in gently with the
finger tips. . ' :
By morning, most it not all, of

Alice reached over in the car and
