Women who are over twenty-one should remember that they will have an opportunity to exercise their fran- chise on an equal footing with men as voters at the annnal school meet- ing to be held in every district in the county Saturday evening at 7 o’clock. Quite frequently these meetings, which are of great import- ance are poorly attended.. At this time is elected the men or women who have charge of our public school, hire the teachers and have general supervision of the finances. Itis of the utmost importace therefore to the people of each dis- trict to attend this meeting and take part in selecting the members of the school board, There are two members of the board to be elect- ed. The members whose terms of office expire are Graham Torrence and T. J. Andrews. HOT WEATHER AND INSURGENCY. Insurgency which shook its horrid war-gear in icy January has wilted in the June hot wave. The the thing seems to have melted in a mess of wax and feathers. The whole fraud is now seen as stage- play and make-believe. We can afford to laugh at our fears now. Will' Carroll described one of his child:lore monsters as “fumious.” “If it had inclined the least to ‘furious’ I would have said| “furious’; or if it had 'inclined " the and take no other. least to ‘fuming’ I would have said ‘fuming’; but as it was exactly between, to be truthful I have: to say ‘fumious,” wrote Carroll. So the make-believe terror of insurgency is ‘fumious.’ Ohio, and Pennsyl- vania, Iowa, Wisconsin; and Mvi‘nkue— i sota have given substantial evidence of loyality to Taft. All these spoke before the president’s complete victory in Washington. If these centers of insurgency crumbled while the battle was doubtful, we | may ask in a sort of pesky exaspera- tion: “Jehosophat, where are the insurgents” Like cockroaches they scamper while the- light is turned on,—M:isconsin State Journal: [ BY THE WAY | If you promise loud enough some fool is apt to believe you. Advice to those new graduates;— fill your first job, and it will be a powerful boost toward a better one. Baseball fans are at least honest in/their yells, not being in politics. Emma Goldman isn’t satisfied withithe-Milwaukee socialists. They are, she thinks, of the milk and water kind, that Berger and Seidel are just “little reformers.” Surely she would not prefer one of them throw- ing bombs at the breweries, or bums out of the saloons.

Chicago, July 15.—“Roosevelt is not a candidate for a third term as pres- ident and will not be a candidate. He is in sympathy with the Taft admin- istration and will continue as a loyal supporter of the president.” This comment was made by John Hays Hammond, millionaire mining engineer and former candidate for vice president, who recently had -a talk with former President Roosevelt. Mr. and Mrs. Hammond registered at the Blackstone hotel, their visit to Chicago being to attend the-wedding of Miss Mary Ryerson and Donald McKay Frost. Mr. Hammond indicated that he is a standpatter of the dyed in the wool variety. He praised the Taft admin- istration and said there was no need of apology for tariff or other legisla: tion. Discussing the talk of a third party he said there was no chance of Roosevelt interesting himself in the movement. GET HABIT FROM AMERICANS Cigarette: Smoking s Now: Popular Throughout Chinese Empirei ‘Washington, July 15.—America has taught the people of the Chinese em- pire to smoke cigarettes. In.a report to this government on foreign- trade by Consul “General Charles Denby -of Shanghai, in which he described the: class of foreign markets which may. be created by American enterprise and then supplied, the consul general says: “One of the most conspicuous ex- amples of such a market is the de: mand for cigarettes in China: TenT years ago the cigarette was am ar- ticle used in China by a small number of people, chiefly foreigners. The field attracted the attention of a group of American manufacturers, who exam- ined into it and decided.to introduce the cigarette to the Chinese people by American methods. The result is that now the cigarette is popular through- out the empire.” An Exceptional.

Whitefish, in Northern Montana, is surrounded by~ blazing- forests, . in which a number of Great Northern tie camps and logging outfits are said to have been destroyed.

Both: sides of Flathead: valley, where is found the finest timber tracts in the state, are burning flercely amd spreading: rapidly in spite:of the- ef- forts of hundreds of men pressed into service: by forestry officials. It is feared: the Flathead district will suffer the greatest timber loss in its history. Libby reports three fires of danger- ous proportions in: Northeastern Mon- tana.
