Working For
Woman Suffrage.

Yesterday one of Pensacola's very
intellectual women called at The Jour
nal office to express her disgust at the
way the Harmon supporters were. as
she termed 1t, being led around by tho
nose by few men. The lady, by the
way, isn't a suffragette by any means
and believes women have more rights
today than they know what to do with.
but she said:
When men become such simpletons
as to be led around by the nose by n
few smart leaders. the women natural
ly see that the men are not competent
to vote. Why, they act like a crowd
Of school girls the way they fall for
the dictation of a few men,"
And the truth of the matter is that
the lady was right. The Journal would
not accuse any Of the men OF believing
that they Topped from Harmon to help
Underwood. OF course there are few
Underwood men who have been for
him all of the time. but the Harmon
followers who recently Topped know
they are trying to use Underwood as
a catspaw. The women have cause 20
be disguised.

Oscar Underwood might possibly de-
velop into a second-choice candidate
for president.
At least one third of those present
were Wilson men, and Underwood men
were so discouraged at the lack Of en-
thusiasm and the failure to develop the
strength they thought certainly would
be forthcoming after all the expendi
ture of time and money-these men
were so detected that you could hardly
get smile out of one OF them all day
yesterday.
WHY RUB IT I'M
But what's the use Of rubbing il in
It all simply demonstrates that In q
primary election you can't DELIVER
the free and sovereign voters of any
community, in accordance with any
Frame-up that few men in business
offices may agree upon.
The people have seen through the
transparent sham Of the Underwood
campaign in Florida, and neither
money nor brass bands nor United
States senators can swing them to him
or to any other cause that won't stand
the acid test Of publicity and frank
nese.
If anyone doubts that the Under
wood BOOM" If 1t were ever worthy
of that term, has collapsed in Pensa-
cola the meeting OF Monday night and
the long faces on the Underwood mer
yesterday are all that should be neces-
sary to convince him.

A GLOOMY DAY
IN PENSACOLA
FAILURE OF THE PROPOSED uN-
DERWooD BOOM PRODUCED
LONG FACES AMONG MANY
WHO HAD BEEN DECEIVED INTO
BELIEVING THERE WAS SOME
THING IN 1T.

oh! somewhere in this favored land
the sun is shining bright:
The band is playing somewhere and
somewhere hearts are light.
And somewhere men are laughing and
somewhere children shout;
But there is no joy in Frame up-the
Underwood club struck out.
with apologies to Casey)
There was gloom in Pensacola all
day yesterday. It settled down over
certain sections of Palafox street like
a fog. From just south of the San
Carlos hotel down to just north of the
custom house, the political atmosphere
was so thick you could have cut ii
with a buzz saw. Some of the people,
whose speciality is pulling strings while
other people jump, were so dazed you
could have knocked one over with a
billet of wood. 1t was heart-rending.
MONEY AND WORK THROWN
AWAY.
For some two weeks, paid runners
had been canvassing Pensacola and
Escambia county from center to cir
conference. They had been told to
get names for that Underwood club
no matter what obetacles they encoun-
tered Names were what was wanted,
and names they must get. That was
what they were paid for. Others In
the innocence of confiding faith volun-
tarily pushed the signature blanks.
A United States senatCl' was sent
for. 1t takes money of course for him
to travel from Washington down TO
Florida, but (what do we care about
money? Haven't we got IT'D
A band was engaged. That takes
money also-but the money was ready
for II.
The opera house was hired. That
only cost $500. Then it was deco
rated, which OF course cost something
Who put up the money nobody
knows, but nearly everyone has a
rather cleverly defined idea where the
money came from. And inasmuch as
there is plenty more where that came
from. no one of course should kick
about it.
WHAT HAPPENED.
And with all the money and the
work and the United States senator
and the band and the opera house and
the decorations and the pictures and
the manufactured enthusiasm-what
happened?
only this: Some $50 to 500 people

There are More Men
Than Women.

After all, there is excuse for the
bachelor. 1t has been demonstrated as
statistical fact that there are not
women enough to go round.
II every bachelor wished to marry
and were such that women might ac-
cept them, many would still be unable
to find mates. Women, 1t seems, are
scarce and men are plenty. and after
the women have accepted the best
there inevitably remains a surplus.
A census bulletin shows that in con-
tinental United States there are 1885,
321 more males than females, or about
two In each 100.
Probably the population of the world
as a whole, and certainly in that half
of It which has been counted with dis
tinction of sex, there are several mil
lion more males than females.
In continental United States, how
ever. the relative excess of males is
greater than the average for all coun
tries.
So the bachelor is a necessary evil.
He could not help himself if he would.
He may conceitedly imagine that he is
single from choice. but he is not-he Is
simply one of the left overs.
To be sure, there are old maids and
widows in plenty, but even If every
last one of these should be taken up
1t Is fair to assume that the particular
old bachelor you especially have in
mind at this moment might still he
left over forlorn and minated.
So treat him kindly. He Is victim
Of cruel conditions and to be pitied
rather than condemned. Until some
sect springs UP making it religious
duty for some women to take several
husbands the bachelor must remain
with US and we must bear with his
groucheS Or best we can.
1t must be easily seen that the propo-
sition to tax bachelors out of existence
is utterly impracticable. Taxation can't
bring more women into existence. And
even IL it could do this there is no as
surance that 1t could compel them to
accept the bachelors.
There is, however, such a thing pos
sible as deportation of bachelors to one
or another of those countries where
women are plentiful. This might seem
| cruel to the bachelors, but It is not as
cruel as the only other remedy-that
of killing them of.

WEDNESDAY, APRIL II, 1919.
What Does All
This Mean?

The Tampa Tribune which was one
OF the most rampant OF the Harmon
supporters before the Frame-up and
which. It seems, was not taken into the
confidence Of the inner circle that
pulled Harmon down in Florida, has
not yet quite come to that stage where
1t feels like openly advocating the i'm
possible candidacy of Mr.. Underwood.
Here is the way the Tribune handles
the subject in its endorsement OF dele
gates:
The Democratic party has a fine
opportunity to win a national victory
this year IL no mistake Is made at the
Baltimore convention. The best way
to avoid the making OF a mistake that
might cost our party the victory Is to
elect as delegates men who are sound
Democrats without any fractional axe
to grind. The interests of the Florida
Democracy will be in safe hands X
the following we'll known Democrats
art sent TO the convention. The gem
tlemen favor Harmon or Underwood.
but win be governed by the instruc-
tlons Of the primary.
Then follows the list OF Harmon
Underwood delegates which the Tri-
bune advises its readers to elect.
But what does 1t mean by the state
ment: These gentlemen favor Har-
mon or Underwood. but will be gov
erned by the instructions Of the pri-
mary?"
Harmon is not running In Florida.
The Instructions Of the primary" will
be for Underwood or Wilson. How
then can these gentlemen, IL elected
do anything for Harmon II, at the
same time, they are to be governed by
the Instructions OF the primary"
Is the Tribune prepared to admit
that Underwood 10 merely a stalking
horse for Harmon?
What complications the Allies have
brought into this contest! Thell
REAL candidate is Harmon, who they
admit could not possibly carry Florida
Their candidate is Underwood. who
they know cannot carry enough states
to even put him In the running. lr

and by indirection what they cannot
get openly and directly, they are driven
to expedients that not a one of then
can defend.
Our friends on the other side occupy
an undesirable position to say the least
of 1t.
