SUFFS SURE TO PASS
THEIR AMENDMENT
Call Anti-Suffragists' Circula
tion of Petition a Pro-Ger-man
Movement in Inter
fering With Women.
"I ani absolutely certain that we
will have . u federal amendment to
the constitution providing for wo
man's suffrage before the question is
resubmitted to the voters of Nebras
ka," said Mrs. H. C Sumney, in speak
ing of the temporary setback which
suffrage has been given in this state
by the anti-suffragists' petition. "We
are not so dull that we cannot see
that this latest mqve was merely
designed to keep women out of the
spring eelction. It may be a good
thing, however, for this will make the
nien and women who are interested
in the suffrage movement even more
determined to bring the privilege of
voting to women. I call this a pro
German move, because those who cir
cuited this petition knew that the
women interested in suffrage would
have to leave their war relief work
to do their work over again in the
fall. When the president has asked
every man, woman and child to give
all his services to helping his coun
try, anything that is done to distract
the attention of any worker is unpa
triotic and pro-German.
1 Names Are Interesting.
"It will be interesting to see the
names of the petition circulators. They
were evidently people who were not
doing enough for their country to
-keep them busy. I am not disap
pointed that this has happened. -It
merely makes the federal amendment
more sure."
Mrs. Draper Smith said: "It was
the privilege of the anti-suffragists to
circulate the petition, but they should
have done it by fair means. Although
I know that a great many people
signed through misapprehension, do
not suppose that enough names will
be cast out at the time of verification
to make the law effective. The only
purpose which this petition will serve
is to take suffragists who are actively
engaged in war work away from their
occupations at the time of the fall
campaign."
Willing for Vote.
Mrs. Sumney expressed the same
opinion that not enough names would
be struck out mal.ing it possible for
the law to go into effect with other
laws made by the last state legisla
ture. There are, though, aware that
many suffragists who were secured
as signers through a misapprehension,
are perfectly willing that the matter

"War Gardeners" as Well
As Boys in Garden Stalls
Not only boy "war gardeners," but
grownup "war gardeners" with a sur
plus of garden truck on hand may dis
pose of their produce at the public
market, according to a statement
made by Mrs. A. C. Anderson of the
Woman Voters' Conservation league
Monday morning.
"If gardeners desire to peddle from
house to house they may secure a
permit from the mayor, after proper
identification," said Mrs. Anderson.
"To sell produce at the public mar
ket, however, no license is needed. A
big sign reading "War Products from
War Gardens" at the public market
directs war gardeners where to dis
play their wares.
New City Dumping Ground
To Be Decided Upon Soon
Relief from the dump nuisance at
Winspear triangle has. at last been
promised to members of Carter Lake
club and persons living in the vicinity
of the lake. A resolution to abate the
nuisance and to create a new dump
was recommended by Commissioner
Kugel before the city council this
morning and was recommended for
passage.
Residents of Carter Lake club
feared that water from the lake used
as the dumping ground seeped into
and contaminated Carter lake.
The new dump probably will be lo
cated in the north part of the city,
the exact location as yet not being
decided upon.

UNIONS ASK NEW
JUDGE SHEARING
Allege in Petition that Judge
Leslie is Prejudiced in
Favor of Business
Men.
should be given to the people for vot
ing upon. When small children cir
culate petitions and ask a man to sign,
saying that if he does they will earn
a nickel, it is not strange that any
number added their names to the list
because they wished to help the chil
dren, even if they did not know what
his list meant.
Attorneys for Omaha unions this
afternoon liled a motion in district
court sking a change in venue in the
injunction suit brought by the state
of Nebraska, on relation of Attorney
General Reed, against them and the
Business Men's association in an at
tempt to end Omaha strike troubles.
The motion alleges Judge Leslie,
who granted the injunction, is "biased
and prejudiced" against union labor.
They ask the case be changed to
some other court, with another judge
presiding.
Several affidavits are attached to
the filing purporting to show Judge
Leslie's alleged prejudiced and biased
attitud : in deciding cases where
unions - ere involved.
Change of venue is also asked on
grounds that the Business Men's as
sociation is a non-moving defendant
in the case. It is charged the em
ployers are "formal and nominal de
fendants only."
Unions alleged the Business Men's
association is made one of the de
fendants for the purpose of hamper
ing them in seeking and maintaining
their legal rights in asserting their
defenses by "pretended and assumed
limitations in procedural rules."
A demurer was also filed by the
unions giving five counts as allegedly
making no ground for action.
Unions say the attorney general did
not have the legar capacity to bring
the action, allege a defect in joining
the defendants to the suit (Business
Men's association and the unions)
and asserts facts were not sufficient
to constitute cause of action.
Attorney General Reed obtained in
junction against the Business Men's
association and the unions in the
strike trouble in restraint of trade.
The unions later were successful
in having the case removed tothe fed
eral court, but Federal Judge Wood-
j rousli remanded it to dit ric t
I Unions now are fighting to have the
lease heard before sonic other judge
besides Judge Leslie when it comes
! up for hearing.

Eliminating Annoyances
There may have been instances in which you have stood in
line at our cashier's window for a disagreeably long time in
order to pay your bill within-the limit necessary to secure your
discount. A big crowd was gathered there for the same purpose,
causing this congestion a common occurence during the discount
periods in the past.
Also you may have occasionally suspected that your meter
was incorrectly read, and reported this belief, only to find that a
sufficient period had elapsed between the reading of the meter
and your" receipt of the statement to make an accurate checking
impossible, as considerable current had been used in the interim.
Your Electric Service Company has been advised of these
.untoward incidents and recently hit upon a plan to prevent their
repetition.
Beginning July 10, a corps of expert and reliable meter read
ers have been constantly on the job, passing from house to house
upon a schedule carefully mapped out beforehand, their readings
turned in at the close of each day and our billing force promptly
making out and forwarding the individual statements as fast as
they are compiled. This in place of the former system of at
tempting to read meters and forward bills all in a few days at the
close of each month, resulting in congestion and the annoyances
named.
The usual discount is still allowed, of course, on all bills paid

if you want to keep your hair, iji

wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Just plain mulsified
cocoanut oil (which is pure and en
tirely pxeaseless), is much better
than the most expensive soaps or any
thing else you can use for shampoo
ing, as this can't possibly injure the
hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two tea-

hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily, and removes every
particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and
excessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and it leaves it fine and

at most any drug store. It is very
cheap, and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for
