fact is, that the republicans have
troubles enough without being put in
the hole that we are now put in, by
the failure of our state committee to
call state convention. A national
campaign with no state convention. or
state platform is an absurdity. There
are republicans whose hearts ache for

Insofar as matters OF this kind are
concerned, the republicans of the state
are dead, lifeless, and without an idea.
The whole fault, in my judgment is
with the state chairman. Before our
last state convention, the state COM
mittee loaded and plugged with proxies
was 57 to in favor of Taft. A con-
Vention was called on such short no

not organize themselves and express

Loud Crying on East Side.

The loud and hysterical boo-hooing
of a young woman aroused the slum-
bers of the residents in the neighbor-
hood of Electric park about midnight
last night. Investigation revealed
nothing worse than an automobile out
of commission and two men and two
women stranded on their way to town.
They were strangers and were trying
to reach the city in time for the Katy
Limited south bound when the mis-
hap occurred. The machine was ad-

ceased and the quartette crept slowly

TURK FEMALES
LOSING GROUND
Too Much Liberty Allowed
Them BY Young Turks

Many Ways
AGAIN W EA II Wells

CONSTA,NTINOPLE, May 1.-The
movement for the emancipation OF
Turkish women which under the
regime Of the Young Turks gained
considerable momentum has now re
ceiyed a serious setback.
Encouraged by the Young Turks
women permitted themselves great
er liberty of movement and in a short
time after the inauguration of the
new regime il was no uncommon
thing to see husbands and wives rid
ing in the same carriage. 4 woman
club with a membership from the
best Moslem families was formed and
courses Of lectures and literary even
ings were given under its auspices.
Education for girls received attention
and a school for girls under the pat
ronage OF the president of the Cham
Der was founded. while funds were
provided Tor training teachers.
The problem Of the veil was in
fiuenced by the prevailing liberal
tendencies and in a short time, al
though no one ventured TO discard il
entirely. it was 50 attentuated in
many cases as to %, tile better than
an apology for a We. MANI women
while in the European quarter OF the
city wore the veil flung back over
their heads.
These reforms were not received
with good grace by the more conserv-
alive Turks. who not only regard
their women as without souls, but
object To any exhibition whatever Of
their bodies
This profound distrust soon reacted
on the government and the Young
Turks. The reformers found that
their tolerant attitude toward their
mel folks aspirations wa :

pecially lending point 10 the argu-
ment that they were not true be-
livers Nothing did more TO add to
the prestige OF the conservative Turks
than the charge that the Young Turks
were no longer good MOslems.
To vindicate their conformity with
the teachings OF the Prophet il was
necessary for the reformers 10 be
come reactionaries as far as the wo-
