HOPEFUL.
The State Has Been Thoroughly
Stumped by Able
Speakers.
319-321 SUFFER- ST
Telephone Grant 81

The result OF the most thorough and
vigorous campaign ever conducted by the
woman suffragists will be known on
Tuesday. This campaign has been car
ried on by the employment of political
methods. deviation from the routine of
all previous campaigns.
Each State has been divided into assem-
bly, districts and again into electional pre-
cincts. The precincts have been thor
oughly canvassed, and every voter that
could possibly be seen has been inter-
viewed, and the result has been such that
the suffragists declare they will win hands
down, if the men will stand by their
promises and pledges.
In the mountain towns which could not
be reached by special speakers the WORK
has been taken hold Of by local women,
and every town that boasts 200 inhabitants
has been thoroughly aroused to the cause.
Hundreds of thousands Of suffrage leaflets
or campaign literature, containing argu-
ments in favor of suffrage, have been dis
tributed through the States.
Susan B. Anthony, accompanied by her
private secretary, Emma ID. Sweet, ar
rived in this City from New York on the
18th of March. expecting to remain in the
State four months, but they were so en-
couraged by the adoption of their plank
cided to await the result of the election.
Although the cause has always had the
support of the religious and country
papers, for the first time in its history a
metropolitan journal has come out and
declared for them, arousing the people
and making sentiment. Mrs. Carrie
Chapman Gait and Rev. Anna 81. Shaw
have devoted the noon hour the last two
weeks addressing the employees of the
different factories, foundries and mills,
and have been assisted by the proprletors
in gathering the men together.
The speakers have been listened to with
the greatest respect and attention, despite
the fact that many small boys are en-
ployed in the factories, ana although not
evincing as much interest as their elders
they refrained from the usual joshing in
dulged in by them. An occasional man
would venture the remark that woman's
place was at home with the babies, but he
was always quickly squelched.
Last Friday at the Pacific Rolling-mllls
the men stood for an hour in the yard
unprotected from the rain and listened to
Mrs. Gait, who addressed them from the
doorway.
After these meetings the men, almost
without exception, would signify their in
tention of voting for the amendment.
The suffragists will take no active part
at the polls on election day, but there will
be a score OF anxious women awaiting the
result in their headquarters in the En-
porium building.
Mrs. Sweet doesn't think there will be
any great demonstration should the suf-
fragists win. She says they will do as the
women of Colorado did when they gained
the ballot--organize study clubs to inform
| themselves on economic questions.

As shown by the last Republican rri-
mary, a majority of all the votes IN the
county are with that party. This fact,
however, though significant should not
be permitted to cause any relaxation of
effort to make the result OF Tuesdays
word doubly sure. Although the great
National issue towers over purely local
contests it is necessary to the maintenance
of strictly party government that local
officers are in harmony with higher ones.
In this county there is every indication
that the Republican nominee for the few
Offices to be filed will be succ essful. With
such keen and clear-cut National issue
on the ballot it is more than likely that
party feeling will dominate throughout.

less popular than he was two years ago.

The band continued to play, and It was

real explanation OF the trouble was that

company until late this evening. when il
was too late to turn on the current with
out great risk. as preliminary tests Of
the circuits were necessary. Some sug-
gestions of adjournment were made. but
they met with no favor-the crowd enjoy

kept up its music-'Dixie" and other pop

red the shouting with cheers and jocular
remarks
This condition OF things went on without
a particle OF light, save from the few
candles stuck on the reporters tables and
one on the chairman's table. Some negro
melodies were sung In different parts OF

NORFOLK, VA July 22.-(Special.)-
Norfolk and Portsmouth played two
games of baseball this afternoon and
broke even. Notwithstanding the threat
ening weather there were about 200 peo-
pie present. The players In the first part
OF the first game evidently determined
to make Umpire Mace's life as unpleasant
as possible, but after he put Marr out OF
the game and talked rather freely Of
touching the pocket-books Of others mat
ters queted down, and the remainder or
the day passed in peace and harmony.
Norfolk punched her errors in the first
game and lost, but she started with a
winning lead in the second and was never
headed. Sechrist and Boyd were the op-
posing pitchers in the first struggle, and
had the men behind them felded their
positions as well as the pitchers twirled.
the two teams would have been playing
now While both men did excellent work,
the score shows that the former had a
shade the better Of 1t. The latter did
his best work with men on bases, and
whenever this happened he was unusu-
ally effective on several occasions, when
a clean single meant one or more runs,
Jake would settle down, work his slow,
wide curve. and the batsman could do
nothing. on the other hand Sechrist
only let four men get to first base, and
three Of these scored. He was steady and
invincible Both teams fielded miserably.
Norfolk hit Evans hard enough In the first
inning to win the second game. The
locals banged out three doubles and two
singles and earned three runs. After
that he settled down, and the other runs
made by the locals were due TO errors
of the men behind him. Gilroy was as
steady as a wooden Indian and pitched
winning ball from start TO finish. The
result was never in doubt. and while the
fielding showed some slight Improvement,
it was still a little ragged. Scores:
