 The resolution will also provide for an amendment to the articles themselves making it impossible to amend the dr- ticle allowing withdrawal from the coun- ell.
 Yesterday afternoon the judgment Of the assembly in the discussion between the Lafayette presbytery and the synod of Missouri caused some discussion and the report was recommitted to the com mittee for another decision.

COLONEL DILLINGHAM;
 AGAIN DELIGHTS AUDIENCE
PLANT JUICE, HE SAYS, IS NOT A cuRE-ALL, BUT A PREVENT
 I'VE MEDICINE.
Yhis, He Claims, Will Be the Medicine
 of the Future-FIne Vaude- vile Show.

Another immense audience attended the free lecture by Col. Dillingham; and nls Plant Juice Remedy company last night members of the feminine sex forming large part of those present.
 Col. Dillingham; seemed to be in very happy frame of mind and gave the au- dience another interesting talk on health matters and the benefits derived from the use of Plant Juice This remedy, he said, was not cure-all, nor did he claim II to be. It was a preventive. The creator never put man on earth to cause nim to be III and sickness was caused by man own abuse of his body in not taking care of the health that was given him with 1t.
 Plant Juice was a preventive of bad health and by taking 1t the blood was purified, thereby cleansing and strength ening the human system. Stomach, liver and kidney troubles all come from bad blood and now, during the spring, was the time to give the blood thorough cleansing.
 Many people, he said, believed they were suffering from stomach trouble, when their real ailment was no more or less than a parasite, commonly known as 9 tape worm. These, he said. originated from eating raw or very rare and un- cooked meats. These monsters cling to the lining of the stomach and sapped up all the nourishment from the food eaten by the sufferer.
 During the course of tine lecture the colonel's associate gave demonstrations with Plant Juice liniment. People suf- fering from aches, pains. partial deafness or stiff limbs were invited to go up on the platform and in response five went up.s Some suffered from headaches, others pain in the back or wrist. These were all relieved of their pains within five min- utes and descended from the platform re- Joicing.
 The vaudeville show was highly enter taining, there being an entire change of programme. and more than pleased the people present.
 Judging from the sales made during the course of the entertainment, Plant Juice remedies have certainly taken hold with the people of Birmingham.

Democrats And Restricted
@% Suffrage.

The women who have been asking
for the right to vote should have known
their cause was hopeless when that con-
.vention was seen to be overwhelmin gly
democratic. The democratic party pre-
tends TO be the party Of the psople but
has always sto0d for restrictions on the
riehtof suffrage. Democrats as q gen.
efal thing, do not believe in the masses
taking part In the elections. To dis
courage the masses, democrats have
put Z poll tat on voters and in many
oasee the conditions are suah that the
great labofins masses are shut out
from the ballot.
The action taken by. the democrats
at Guthrie is along this line and for
the same purpose. The labor and
farmer organisations had expressed a
desire to have the right TO vote ex.
tended to women; declaring that
their wives would most certainly avail
themselves Of the privilege. This is
where these people made . mistake
These democrats who believe ruling
class Is born, In come states have al.
most eliminated the labor vote and
would not double that vote in Okla
horna.
This does not end this question, how
ever, as these labor organizations will
without question, invoke the initiative
TO test the matter before the people in
the very fret year after the adoption OF
the constitution. These. people
through the initiative will change
the constitution and give the women
of the state the right to vote.
The argument used against granting
women the right to vote were yer,
weak as al, apply with equal force tc
men. Few Of the women would vote
but comparatively few Of the men vote
except as they are dragged to tn,
polls. The same efforts made to secure
the vote OF the women as is usual,
made 10 secure the vote of the men
would bring every woman to the polls
Besides the point made by Delegate
Asp, that while few women would vote
the fact that they could do so, would
have tendency to cause better OBJ
servsnce Of laws just as the enactment
of the initiative and referendum would
cause legislators to be very careful a,
TO the kind of laws passed.
