The United States has supplied large quantities of railway materials and equipment to other parts of the world ;. in the last year, according to figures complied by Uncle Sam. The erports . of this class ef material during the last fiscal year were more than double those of 1914. The total value of the exports Id the last fiscal year was $74, 729,000, as compared with $34,919,000 In 1914. Until very recently Canada and Cuba bare been the foremost foreign markets for our freight cars ; Cuba, Canada and Brazil the largest markets for exported locomotives ; and Canada, .. Australia, Japan, Brazil, Argentina and Cuba the leading markets for oar steel rails. Recently the United , States has been sending unusual quan tities of freight cars and other sup- v piles to Russia, chiefly via her Pacific frontier, and Important consignments have gone also to France and Spain, s well as to established markets in Cuba, Canada and Central America. The total exports of freight cars In one month were valued at $1,613,000, ' of which $1,086,000 worth went to Rus- ; sis. Steel rails to the value of $1,730, 000 were sold abroad during the month, the exports to France alone amounting to $1,188,000. Of the $721, 000 worth of steam locomotives sold abroad, $272,000 worth went to Spain.

VQUIQ THE "CROOKS" OF 1912 LET HUGHES KEEP PLEDGES? Candidate Hughes Is running on a personal platform of promise. The safest the only trustworthy method of judging the future I by assessing the past Candidate Hughes' promises (should be weighed in the light ef his past performances as an executive. Here are some of til promises made when be was a candidate for governor of New York, aud set opposite them are his performances to correspond with them: CANDIDATE HUGHES SAlD: "I believe In labor legislation and the great benefits that have flowed from the wise conduct of labor or ganizations." "I want to see fair Justice done to everybody who works." "Every practical measure for the real benefit of labor will have my support" "I promise the enforcement of the law with equal severity and in equal Justice to all corporations and Individuals." The conditions of transportation In New York city are a shame, and I purpose to find out the proper method of procedure and whether legislation or administrative action Is necessary." GOVERNOR HUGHES DID: Refused to appoint a practical railroad man to the state public service coiumlsalon. although urged to do so by organized labor. Vetoed the bill giving women schoolteachers equal pay with meu for equal work. Vetoed the full crew railroad bill. Vetoed bills urged by state tax commission to compel corporation to pay tbelr franchise taxes prompt ly and to authorize the tax board to equalize special franchise tax valuations. Vetoed Coney Island five cent fare bill, which would have saved the people of New York city $100.000 a year. Accomplished nothing to correct street car over crowding. "I shall devote myself with re newed seal to the people's service. My administration shall be an Em bossed administration.' ' Blocked in his efforts by the bosses of his party, Governor Hughes resigned In his second term to accept appointment to the Unit ed States supreme court Mr. Hughes is not the Republican party. He would be no more able to make good hie promleee ae president than he was ae governor of New York if he were eleoted president he would be able to deliver only so much as the Republican boesee-th "crooks" denounced by Roosevelt in 1912 would permit him to deliver. nmi I "'"-" m ninTgw fV 7t!rf SUFFRAGISTS CERTAIN OF DEMOCRATS' HELP end you won had Leaders Resent Efforts to Have Them Support Hughes. .

A number of Russian students may be sent to the United States to study American business methods and varl ' us features of commercial activity in this country. Uncle Sain has been ad vised by the United States consul gen eral at Moscow. The Russian-American chamber of commerce is pushing the matter, asserting that Russian young men wishing to specialize in the technics of trade and industry would becohie acquainted in America with the best technical education, which In no other country is developed to such a degree as it Is in America. By visits of Russian students to America, It is declared, Russia will have the possibility of becoming close ly acquainted with authoritative In . formation on economic and commercial questions. The chamber will endeavor to have the government provide the funds for the trip of the students to this country.. Mr. and Mrs. G. F.

Western women who have bad the ballot equally with the men for several years resent the interference of one of the factions of suff racists and the at tempt to turn the suffrage cause Into an adjunct of the Republican party They believe they Know how to vote and tbey refuse to turn Against the Democrats, who have done so much for their cause in their respective states. This sttltude is brought out clearly in an Interview by Nlxola Greeley Smltb. nationally prominent as a writer on the staff of the New York World, with Mrs. Alexander Thompson. Dem ocratlc national committeeman from Oregon, and Mrs. Theresa M. Graham of Coeur d'Alene. Ida. "One would think," observed Mrs Thompson to Miss Greeley-Smitb. 'tbat if any instruction in suffrage matters had to be given it would come from the women wbo have won the vote and do vote ratber tban from suffra gists ln the east, who are still disfran chised. I am a young woman, but I have been through three campaigns for the vote In Oregon. In the final cam paign we won through the co-opera tion and help and belief In ut of the men of Oregon. Aided by Democrats. "We have been voting only five years, and we are still grateful to our men. So when the Congressional Un Ion sent speakers to Oregon to tell as to vote against all Democrats we laugh ed at them. Why. at the last election they campaigned against George E Chamlerlaiii. who introduced the flrsl suffrage bill In Oregon and who had been the friend of the women all through their fifteen years' fisht" "I agree with every word tbat Mrs Thompson has spoken," declared Mrs Graham, proxy member of the notlfl cation committee from Idaho. 'The conditions in my state are the same as In Oregon, except that we have had the vote for twenty years, and it was given to us without our having to fight for It The Congressional Union has speakers In Idaho now urging us to slaughter the Democrats and free our sisters in the east How silly that is! Are women ln the east so foolish as to be led away by the mere declaration of a candidate, unsupported by his party, tbat he's personally in favor of federal amendment? "Wood row Wilson voted for suffrage. Has Charles E. Hughes ever voted for suffrage Wilson has done everything eerisiatent with a belief in state rights, one of the fundamental prinoiplea ef Democracy. Suffrage can never win as a partisan issue. Alienate the Demo , crate en masse and you have killed ev 'ry chance suffrage hae ' : Won by Wilson'a'speech. It Is admitted by suffragists that their cause baa been helped greatly by the speech President Wilson made be fore the convention of the National Woman Suffrage association at Atlan tic City on Sept 8. When the presi dent told them be bad "come here to fight with yon- the 4400 suffragists gathered in Nixon's theater arose and cheered him enthusiastically. . . This pledge by the president led Mrs. Cam Chapmaa Catt president of tba asaoctatlon. to say: "You touched our hearts our fealty when you said come here to fight with us " "The astoulsbing thing about this movement" said PresiJent Wilson. "U not tbat it bas grwn go slowly, but tbat ll bas grown so rapidly. I get a little Jnipatlent sometimes about the discussion ui the liannels and methods by vhich I is to prevail.

Our large line of Cole's Heating Stoves is not only attractive but will save you one-third your fuel bill. Don't Be Confused by the many attempts to imitate Coe's Hot Blast Economy, such as ring drafts, slotted firepots, etc., which fail in the one essential of Cole 's air-tight construction, which is the under lying necessity upon which all gas burning economy is dependent. The test that proves economy is the even, steady gas burning heat given off day and night by Cole's risdmia!
