, A big change is being made this
week at Arnold & Company’s Foundry.
,ln Hoyt street, inasmuch as the plant.
is being elétrified and will hereafter
be run by electricity instead of steam.

Two large electric motors. one of
thirty and the other of fifteen horse
power are being installed, and every
machine in the plant will soon be
turned by electric current instead of
steam as was formerly the case.

Freeman Rose. the uptown elect“-
al contractor is installing the motors

lthat the foundry will be completely
equipped and ready to run on the no!
power inside of a week.

COLORADO SPRINGS. Colo., Aug.
12.—-.\'ational Women's Party leaders,
following yesterday's action in adopt-l
ing an election policy for the com-
ing presidential campaign. were we
paring today to scatter their forces
throughout twelve equal sufirage
states.

in accordance with the plans agreed
upon the campaign workers were in-
structed to use their best efforts to
prevent the reelection of President
Wilson. and in states where women
are entitled to vote for members of
Congress. to work for the detest of
Democratic candidates. The party
members are pledged to oppose the
Democratic party so long as that party
neglets to bring about the enactment
of the Susan B. Anthony federal
amendment.

Twenty-five Colorado women. for-
mer Democrats. now affiliated with
the Woman's Party. are awaiting a
reply to their message last night to
President Wilson urging him to se-;
cure the enactment of the fodoral‘
amendment. These women, may of
whom opposed in the conference the
denunciation of the national admin-
istration, represented to the president
that they were pledged to oppose his
reelection unless his formal suppo
were given. ~ -

Leaders of the majority. however.
pointed out that the statement of
policy as adopted, while commending
the attitude of the Progressive, Probiv
bition and Socialist parties. and prais-
ing the attitude of Mr. Hughes upon
equal suffrage. was essentially non-
partisan and that the party was com-
mitted to a program on behalf ot
nation-wide equal suffrage. it was
important. they added, that the in
dividuality of the Women's Party
should be maintained.
