In votimr for woman sufTraffo Repre
sentative Stevens of this county will bo
commended by the women of tho county
ten though n majority of them mny
not be enthusiastic in the suffrage cause.
Tlicro may be a good many womon
who will tiot always vote if given an
opportunity, but they want the oppor
tunity. Tun lobbyists at tho stato capital
grew so numerous and persistent that a
motion to deny all persons the privilege
of the lobby wbb mado Monday. The
motion was voted down, but later
another motion of n similar nature pre
vailed, and lobbyists are now oxcluded
from every part of the houso except the
.gallery. Tnis action seems to be about
the most important thing the house has
so far done.
THE three appointees named by
Governor Morehead as membors of tho
state board of control wero rejoated by
tho stato senate Tuesday. This action
was largely duo to republican votes and
was based purely upon political con
siderations. None seomed to doubt the
fitness, honesty or capabilities of tho
nppointeos. The action of tho republi
cans therefore seferris to have been in
defensible, unwarranted, and an affront
to tho governor that ho did not deserve.
Honesty And fairness always pays.

; WORKMAN in an I H C wagon fac
tory was explaining tho various
stages of wagon construction to an
interested visitor. He picked up
two pieces of loner leaf vellow nine.
and asked the visitor to notice the difference in
the weight of the two pieces. The lighter
Eicce, he explained, was kiln-dried. Tho
eavier piece was air-dried. It- had retained
the resinous sap which adds strength and
toughness, while in the kiln-dried piece of
lumber this sap had been drawn out by the too
rapid application of heat.
Every Stick of Lumber Used
in IHC Wagons Is Carefully
Selected, Air-Dried Stock
Here was something to think about. The
visitor asked for a test as to the relative
strength of the two pieces of wood. The air
dried piece held up under nearly double the
weight under which tho kiln-dried piece of
lumber broke.
To the eye there was no difference between
these two pieces of lumber, but when put to
the test there was a vast difference. So it is
throughout the construction of I H C wagons
Weber, Columbus, New Bettendorf, Steel
King. They are built for real strength, light
draft, and satisfactory service.
Weber and Columbus wagons have wood
gears. Steel King and New Bettendorf havo
