LABOR AND INTEMPERANCH Discussed by Mrs, Saxon in Relation to the Ballot. 4 It was a small but presumably select andi ence which gathered at the First M. E. church last evening to hear Mrs. Elizaboth Lyle Saxon. The meeting was called to order by Pastor House, who started what he called “everybody’s hymn," Lover g all to join in the sing- et prayer, Mrs. Alma E Keith, acting #s chaivman, introduced the kor of the ovening. Mrs. Saxon had re her liat end wraps and, stepping for- ward, threw both arms across the reading stand and launched into her subject without preliminary hom or haw. Mrs motherly looking woman, with a fine figure, a noticeably erect carriage and a pleasing ice. The subject of the address was “The Ballot in Its Relation to Labor and Intemperance.” The lady spoke of the ballot as the the highest and best privilege an may have, and dwelt upon the necessity of \intaining its purity. Politics have become a synonym for corruption, and she reviewed the causes which have led to this state of affairs, She asserted that liguor power had been the at ruptor, closely followed by the corporate power of the railroads, She dipped into the y of labor troubles and enforced her s with statistics, OYears ago, Wendel Phillips, with his intuitive sense, said there was but one weapon to save this coun- try from anarchy, and that is the ballot in the hand of woman. Intelligence, Mrs. Saxon asserted, has shifted to the feminine side. Out of the war grew conditions that “Jesus, forced the boys to go to work while the girls remained in school and at home. The major part of the ignorant immigration to America is male, and the intelligent, native woman 18 largely in the majority. The speaker vidi- culed ' the argument that women did’t know enough to vote. Mrs.Saxon arraigned the ram power for the misery and the burden it entails upon women. She said there were 3,000,000 working woman, mauy of them with children to care for, and it_18 a pitiable fact that they are robbed of compensation justly due them. Woman, she argued, needed the ballot to protect herself. Of course she did not refrain from the ster- eotyped comparison of woman's work with that of man, but the burden of her addross was upon the uncqual struggle waged by woman in industrial pursuits and social life. The speaker maintained Sthat women would conserve morality, 100, She believed men will respond royaily to the request of woman if she will urge the matter with earnestuness, She urged women to write candidates for the legislature, make them commit themselves wnd then use the feminne influence accord- ingly. Ki¥s. Saxon is giving a series of loctures under the direction of the Woman's Suftrage association and the W. C. T. U. On Friday afternoon (at 3 o'clock) she will address women only at the First Baptist church: C Purity.” In the evening she dress a mixed audience, on *“Wifty ' progross for women ‘What is more attractive than a pretty face with a fresh, bright complexion?

Eng- strom, who i8 now occupying a cell at the central station, his arrest yesterday is a most unwarranted piece of maliciousness. He is charged with pretending to own a farm of 160 acres in Webster county, which he fraudulently traded to John F. Helin for an- other farm, receiving in addition £00 on the trade. Eugstrom, who is an honest appearing and hard-working Swede, is greatly concerned and puzzled over his arrest, He says he and Helin traded farms, and that neigher had scen the farm for which he had dfckered.

He ame herc, from Des Moines, Ta., where for fifteen yeats he followed the occlipation of a carpenter, and sustained the best of charac ters. He has notbeen in hiding for several days, as stated, but has been at hor usuai time. Monday evening Helin his house and had & long failing to intimidate him into a promise to annul the contract between them, pushed the matter of his arrest. ‘The statement that he is probubly the sharp who *did" persons in Kearney and Butte City mn great land swindles is utterly false, as he has never seen either of these places. The object of his intended trip west was to sce the farm He- linhas traded him, and not to escape the clutches of justice. These are his statements and he is sustained in them by Mr. Jacobson and other prominent Scandinavians of this city.
