THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: FEBRUARY 9, 1913.
'SUFFRAGE IS SURE TO COME
So Declares Dr. Anna Shaw in Talk-1
ing Politics.
WILL BE IN PARTY PLATFORMS
Dr. Shnir Will Sprnk nt Mfin
Meettns; nt rtrnnilel Theater
Sandfly Atlrrnnnn nt
Tlirec O'clock.
"There l not a particle of doubt but
that the democrats will write a woman
suffrage plank In their national platform
during the next presidential campaign,
and 1 believe the republicans will do It
also as the progressives have already
done.' said Dr. Anna Howard Shaw. In
her address to the women of the Second
Congressional dlstrlot In the Young
Women's. Christian association audi
torium. "They will write the plank
lc their platforms not because the dem
oprms. the republicans, or the vrogres
etves slither care one whit for woman
suffrage, but because they are all afraid
to omit such a plank In drawing up such
a platform. These parties are not going
to lose the Influence the women can give
them. We will have fifteen states with
woman suffrage by WIS when the next
presidential election will occur. The
votes of the women will then prove a tre
mendous balance of power 1n tho electoral
college." Dr. Shaw later made the pre
diction that In 1M0 thero would not be a
single state In the Union In which the
women would not have the right of suf
frage. Wnrk U Necessary
About seventy women assembled to
hear the national president of the woman
suffrage association In her address In the
Young Women's Christian association
Auditorium. Mrs. Draper Smith, presi
dent of the state association, prestdsd.
Mrs. Frank Harrison and other heads cf
various committees first reported In order
to give Dr. Shaw an accurate Idea of tho
status of the suffrage campaign In Ne
braska at the present time. Dr. Shaw
then told them that from what she had
learned she was of the opinion that nom
ine; was left undone in Nebraska and that
all that was now necessary was to wotk.
"You cannot carry Omaha," she pre
dict)), "for It Is always hard to carry a
large city. You must, however, get i ut
and work In the country precincts to
gain enough votes to overcome the anti
suffrage votes In the city. It Is note
worthy that the opposition to HUii'rage
In the cities always comes rrom two nell
defined sources. It comes from the ex
clusively rich and from the exclusively
vicious. These two factions oppose It
for opposite reasons. The rich fcr
woman suffrage because they fear It
would disturb their financial condition,
and the vicious oppose it because tho
fear It would work against the continu
ance of vice."
Work for the Cnnae.
Dr, Shaw urged tho women to drop
everything for tho suffrage cause. "You
can afford to drop your club work, your
entertainments, your theater's, and your
fashions for a while, except that you will
have to dress neatly and respectably, or
you will do the cause no good."
When Dr. Shaw was Informed that Ilev.
Charles W. Savldgo had challenged her
to debate with him Sunday morning, sho
replied, "Ho will Have to debato roe on
the. train If he, does.'for I go to I,lncoln
tila afternoon and shall hot get back "to"
Omaha until Sunday afternoon. I am to
qptiak In Llnjolp this evening, B,fWfia
liur question has got tteyind tho period of
debate. You can debate 'theories, but
we have got beyond theories. Wo have
facts, and I will match facts with any
body. Dut the principle thing about this
Is that I have my program and schedule
alt arranged, and I cannot switch my pro
gram In order to stop and debate theories
, with anybody that happons to bob up
here and there."
Dr. Shaw will speak at the Drandeli
theater Sunday afternoon at S o'olock.

TIMELY REALESTATE GOSSIP!
Very Little "Shop" is Being Talked
by OmahaReal Eitate Dealers.
WAIT FOR BETTER WEATHER
Cold Wrathrr I'utttnir Crimp In
Mniulirr of Sales null Iluyvr
Ilrfune to Get Out In
Cold.
CoM weather teems to liava had a bad
effeet upon the real estate market. Since
the temperature dropped a month atro the
number of reil estate transfers has ma
terially decreased and realty dealers and
property owners are looking forward to a
warmer period for business to return. The
weather has a more noticeable effect upon
the sale of lota than on other kinds of
properties handled by the real estate pro
fession. Tho sale of residences and bust- J
ne&s buildings Is effected to some extent.
but the number of transfers of lots prob
ably Is more In evidence.
Naturally, there Is a reason for this and
probably there Is no better reason than
that lots must be shown to prospective
buyers nnd prospective buyers cannot be
Induced to go out In the cold to look at
them. Thus It happens tliat January and
February are considered the worst months
of the year by the average real estate
dealer. The dealers now are looking to
the latter part of March and first of
April to return an active business to
them.
The Ileal Estate exchange hasn't talked
"shop" In Its weekly sessions for more
than a month. That Is, the subjects
brought up at the meetings have not been
essentially discussions for real estate men
as real estate men. They have turned
their attention to the things being done
at IJncoln, dropping their Individual bust,
nets problems, ko to speuk, to work out
the buulnu&g problems of city and state
government. And some very effective
work Is being done by the members. An
energetic band of lobbyists is constantly j
working for measures which might be of
help to Omaha and the state. The band
did Bomo good work In getting up a new
charter slate ond probably will have a
great Influence In framing the charter.
It noon will turn Its attention to a new
union depot.

Claims for Extras
Not more than about $5,000 of Caldwed

Commissioners. The board spent two
hours considering the seweral items of the
claim. While no final action was taken,
the board decided that most of the Items
will be rejected, among them one for $4,000
for damage caused by the dynamiting
of the building. Another item scheduled
for rejection Is one of 1810 for extra ce
ment used in foundation mortar, the con

SALOON KEEPER SUED
FOR RUINING HUSBAND
For the nlleged ruination of their home
by making a drunkard of their husband
and father, Mrs. Dick Kimball and Mar
guerite Kimball have started suit for $15,
000 against Otto Kahler, proprietor of
a saloon at 614 North Sixteenth street,
and the Illinois Surety company, his
surety.
It is alleged that Kimball, an express
man, was a hard working man, a faith
ful and loving husband and father until
November, 1911. when he began to
patronize the saloon; It is alleged that
the defendant Kahler continued to sell
the man liquor after Mrs. Kimball In
writing had ordered him to sell no more
liquor to her husband. Kimball now
squanders his earnings and his property,
It is charged.
