Two Arch Fnemies.
''Behoving sincerely ami truly that
woman svri'ragc and womanhood are
two arch enemies,' and Spirit, explain
:ng his vote, "and believing likewise
ir.a. tise latter is tv ar more essen-
ta-i t.warl ti:e welfare and in the
)a a.-,c rcat ion of social and moral jus
tice of our nation, I vote no."
Senator Mattes said:
'Government may, without great
oss of eOhicney, permit a certain
amount of idealism and sentiment to
.e woven into the governmental fab
Ac, but in the main to be successful
v. cflieient it must be highly prac
ticed. Practical government requires
attention in exactly the Fame degree
as does private business. Male voters
lio advocate woman suffrage now
raise the :-. u. . rignal ot distress,
because they have made a failure of
government anil try now to unload
the responsibility upon the shoulders
r.f woman.
'"'lhis is r.ot a question of compli
ments to women, not a matter of sen
timent, but a plain question of prac
tical results. No one can serve two
masters successfully, and I believe
mo loss to womanhood and family
v.iil be greater than the gain to state
and society.
"He who makes two blades cf grass
grow where one grew before is con
sidered a human benefactor; but he
who makes two votes to be cast where
one was cast before with exactly the
same results has benefited no one.
"Wyoming has had woman suffrage
since 18G9, and yet, social and moral
conditions in that state are by no
means superior to those in the state
of Nebraska, and in the matter of
legislation of a soundly progressive
character, an item that is susceptible
to accurate proof, the state of Ne
biaska has long since outdistanced
her suffrage sister state to the west.
"One claim advanced for suffrage
is that it will purify politics and
make the polling places of the state
a sent of "pink tea" affair. Conditions
in California, a suffrage state with
which I am somewhat familiar, shows
no such result, and even Luther Bur
bank, the plant wizard who has pro
duced spineless cacti, and God knows
we already have enough spineless
men, would not undertake to graft
American Beauties upon the rotten
stump of politics.
"To sum up woman suffrage terse
ly government and society can and
will gain nothing; womanhood and so
ciety may lose much and this inher
ent danger is the foundation of my
objection."

The Red Sox base ball team of this
city with a most enviable record the
several pa::t years, made good yester
day morning in the opening game of
the 1.)17 season, when tb?y shut out
the Ramblers cf Omaha, by a score
of " to 0, in a very interesting game.
The Sox this season have a number of
new players, who performed in first
class shape and by their fielding and
hitting earned a place in the hearts
of the faaas. The new players who
demonstrated tie ir ability in the
great national pa-time were Edwards
at third base and Grassman at short,
and the hoys in their cpening demon
strated a clear idea of the fine points
of the game. The old veterans, Ma
son, Connors, Beal and. Herald were
as usual in evidence with their steady
fast playing and proved strong fac
tors in overwhelming the visitors
from the metropolis. Jeff Salsburg,
who officiated at the second bag, was
in his usual form and nailed a number
of good drives that checked the pos
sibilities of the visitors securing a
score for their side.
The game was scoreless until the
fourth, when Plattsmeuth scored two
runs. Salsburg opened with a hot one
down the third base line that Mc
Ar.drews was unable to handle, but
was later tagged out at the third sta
tion by Mae. Herold followed with
a safe one to firs. base, stealing sec
ond, and when Maon rapped one on
the nose for a safety to the center
garden Pete scored. Grassman hit
to third and in the attempt to tag
Mason was safe at first base. Ed
wards with a clean ne to short was
ft r " ?
d
able to bring in Mas n for t!
uin of the game. The side was re
tired by Boggs, who struck out.
In the eighth inning the Sox again
took a spurt in their batting and
throe more runs were added to the
list that decorated the score board.
Conners opened with a hit to the cen
ter garden and was followed by Sals
burg, who laid down a bunt that could
net be handled, and was safe at first,
with Connors at second. Herold pro
ceeded to score Connors with a hit to
the right garden, and this was fol
lowed by another rap by Mason into
the territory of the right field, that
allowed Salsburg to score as well as
Herold. This closed the game as far
as scoring was concerned on either
side, and from this time on there was
nothing doing in the way of tallying
as both tightened up and played good
fast ball until the close of the game.
Stevens, the star slab artist of Ne
braska City, was on the mound for
the Red Sox, and ten of the visitors
fell before his fast slants.
The score:
RED SOX.

Two British hospital ships, the
Donegal and Lanfranc, have been
sunk without warning by German
.submarines. Seventy-five persons,
including wounded men and men of
the crew of the two vessels, are be
lieved to have peri-.hed.
Of the wounded all were not Brit
ish fifteen were German ofacers and
soldiers, who were on board the Lan
franc. All together there were H7
Germans on this vessel.
The placing of Germans on hospi
tal ships vhich do not carry the char
acteristic sign is one of the methods
of reprisal decided upon by the Brit
ish government because of the un
warned sinking of these boats of
mercy. One of the latest victims of
submarines was not so marked.
The Lanfranc was a vessel of ",273
tons gross, 118 feet in length. The
Donegal registered 1,(L7 tons gross
and was 331 feet long.
Owing to the German practice of
sinking hospital ships at night and to
the fact that distinctive marking and
lighting of such vessels render them
more conspicuouse targets for German
submarines, it has become no longer
possible to distinguish our hospital
ships in the cutomary manner. One
of these two ships, therefore, though
carrying wounded, was not in any
way outwardly distinguished as a hos
pital ship. j

Nature Cures, the Doctor Takes the
Fee.
There is an olel saying that "Na
ture cures, the doctor takes the fee,"
but as everyone knows you can help
Nature very much and thereby enable
it to effi'ct a cure in much less time
than is usually required. This is per
ticularly true of colds. Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy relieves the lungs,
liquifies the tough mucus and aids in
its expectoration, allays the cough and
aids Nature in restoring the system
to a healthy condition.
