SUFFRACETTE
Is Little Miss Anna B. Hooper,
Daughter of Governor
Hooper.

Nashville, Tenn, March 12.-Little
Miss Anna B. Hooper, years old,
daughter of Gov. Hooper, has the dis
tinction Of delivering the first equal
suffrage speech ever made in the Tenn
essee state house. 1t was all of her
own planning,
Appearing at the capitol, she solic-
tied the aid of her fathers stenogra-
pher in copying her speech, after
which, collecting her especial friends
among officials, clerks and stenogra-
pliers, she led the way TO the hall of
the house, where, mounting the ros-
trum, the young sufiragette said:
"My fellow-ctizens, suppose you
know the reason | am here. | come
pleading for you men to let the women
vote. Do you believe in the way Mrs.
Pankhurst is trying to get votes? No,
| do not. do not believe i'm smashing
up the windows, but | do think you
ought to let us vote. Why shouldn't
we help to make the laws of our coun-
try? The ignorant men are allowed TO
vote, but the educated women are de-
MED this privilege. This is not right,
and every sensible man knows it,"

POST OFFICE BUILDING
AT DEL RIO WRECKED
Thieves Make Bold Effort to Rob Sae But Are Frustrated
When They Load Their Charge Too Heavy, the Building
Being Wrecked and the Safe Dropped Down Through
the Floor Damage is About $780,

The post office at Del Rio was blown
up Friday night at l:O5 a. m. by
would-be robbers, the ceiling being
torn off of the building, windows
blown out and other damage done to
the building, but the thieves were
scared away without getting anything
from the government. The damage to
the building is estimated at 500.
Asum of about 500 was in the safe
and this was evidently known by the
thieves. They made an entrance and
had both doors open at the time Of
the explosion. A hundred pounds of
sugar was placed on the safe to hold it
down and dynamite was used to make
the explosion. The robbers were evil
IDENTIFY inexperienced for they loaded
the shot too heavy and when the eX-
plosion came the ceiling was blown off
and tho safe went down through the
floor.
Frank StokeIy was awakened by the
explosion and ran to the scene but the
thieves, were already frightened and
were making their getaway without
looking into the safe. A quantity of
flour stored just across the aisle from
the safe was uninjured.

A subcommittee Has Been
Appointed By Congress-
iOnal Head.
WILL REPORT APRIL Sh
The Republicans of the East Be-
lieve That They Have a Chance
. in Tennessee and Are Doing
Everything Possible in Their
Power to Bring About Harmony
in Republican Ranks.

Washington, ID. c. March 11.-An
interesting development has leaked ont
in Washington to the effect that a sub
committee of the Republican National
Congressional Committee has been AZ
pointed by Chairman Mckinley to look
into the question of "who's who" in
the First Tennessee District as between
Congressman Sam r. Sells and Dr.
Massey. The Republicans are trying 10
harmonic if possible and this is par
ticularly true of Chairman Mckinley,
who is not only Chairman OF the TAFT
campaign, but also Chairman of the
Congressional Committee.
1t is proposed to determine the mer-
its of each contestant and empower
the committee to decline the nominee.
The committee was announced Today,
and consists of Moore of Pennsylvania,
Davidson of Wisconsin and Weeks OF
Massachusetts. The impression is
rooted in the Republican councils that
this is good year to carry Tennessee
and efforts will be made to smooth ont
all the differences and get all the party
adherents TO work as unit for success
Conditions in Tennessee are being care,
fully watched by both sides.

2 DELEGATIONS INSURED
Barton Committee Calls a Dele
gated Convention at Which
Nominations Will Be Made,
While the Vertrees Committee
Adheres to the Original Pri-
mary Plan.

Nashville, March l2.-Harmony in
Democratic ranks was cast aside Sat
urday by the committees, and the
split is now more wide than at any
other time. Efforts of National Dem
ocratic Chairman Norman E. Mack to
interfere and bring about peace have
failed and the two state committees
will in their own way select delegates
to the national convention and make
nominations for the different state
offices.
The Vertrees committee by close
vote of 1919 and 10-S turned down the
Mack proposition which provided for
the appointment of new committee
which would have absolute power, and
the Independents who had inc orpor-
ated the Mack suggestion in their
proposition to the Nertrees committee,
finding that harmony was not wanted
by Major Vertrees and the majority of
his committee, appointed special
committee to make arrangements for
the holding OF delegated convention
in Nashville not later than May ID, at
which time nominations will be made
for state offices and delegates selected
to the national convtntion.
The Vertrees committee on the other
hand changed their primary date from
April p to May % and declared the
date ofthe primary changed from May
16 10 June II. The Vertrees commit
tee also announced that it wonld ad-
here to the original primary plan to
which the Barton committee would
not agree and Chairman Vertrees an
nounced that the Barton committee
would be allowed until March Is to
appoint three members of primary

not do so, Mr. Vertrees will name all
seven members of the proposed board.
Under the plan of the Vertrees COM
mittee, it is very unlikely that the
democrats of Tennessee who support
the Barton Committee will enter the
primary. The action of Chairman
| Nerlrees and his committee is not only
antagonistic to the Barton committee,
but was opposed by many of the men
formerly within the Nertrees faction
who have lent their support to the
effort of former Gov. Patterson to re-
store harmony.
The Barton committee announced
May ID as the date fer its convention
to select delegates to the Baltimore
convention. This insures two delega-
tions to Baltimore.

NEWPORT GIRLS
WERE DEFEATED
Made a Fine Showing, However,
in View of it Being Their
First Game.

The young ladies of the Newport
High School played a game of basket
ball last Friday night against the
young ladies of the Lonsdale High
School of Knoxville, the Knoxville
misses winning by score of 27-l3. In
view of the fact that it was the first
attempt:of the Newport misses, their
showing was surprise and their
friends elated. The Knoxville misses
were the best at the beginning of the
game and had scored 16 points before
the Newport girls realized that they
were playing, but after the first few
moments of stage fright the locals got
together and more than held their own
with The visitors. The first half ended
with the score 21-5 in favor of Knox
Vile while the second half found New
port getting the best by score of S-6.
Not only was it pretty game of
ball, but it was success financially,
the largest crowd which has ever seen
game in Newport gathering on short
notice TO see the struggle. Miss Alma
Alley who played forward for Newport
exhibited spirit of gameness in the
secoud period which won her much
praise and she could not be stopped by
the visiting guard. Miss Sparks her
team mate also showed ny we'll in this
period, while Miss Burke did some fine
defensive work. In fact the whole
team showed up well after the first
half, Miss Boyer getting the ball from
center equally as often as did her op-
ponent and Miss Bolch, who was op-
posed to the visitors star, holding her
to two goals in the second half.
Miss Leland, was the star for Ions
dale, although Miss Wells showed
fine form IN the first few moments OF
play, but bloody nose prevented her
from shining in the last half.

''We then assume continued the
explorer, ''that Amundsen reached the
Bay of Whales at the end of January.
He would take two or three days load
ing and getting underway with the
Fran, and would then presumably go
north and work TO westward Of Cape
Adare, then get into westerly winds
and make Hobare. The Fran being
slow vessel, going about five knots,
would take month, unless strong
winds were behind her, to reach
Hobart.
"The question arises in ones mind,
did Captain Scott reach the Pole be-
fore December Is; if so, the honor lies
with the British flag, but the same en-
durance and skill and need of endeavor
must be granted Amundsen as the
Norwegian people would grant Scott
if positions were reversed.
at would be quite possible that the
two expeditions, having reached the
Beardmore glacier, would be in touch
with each other or would come across
depots indicating the advance or re-
turn of either party.
"There may have been mored ramat-
ic situations between the two parties
crossing the glacier converting toward
the coveted spot from different direc-
tions. They may have met at the Pole
itself.
"Amundsen's equipment, though
not SO large as Scott's, has peculiar
advantages. The Norwegians who ac-
companied Amundsen are accustomed
to driving dogs and are born ski rum
ners. Dogs will keep up the rapid
pace which ski runners are not able TO
adopt, which naturally is faster than
slow plodding foot movements of
ponies. Amundsen had 1l2 dogs at
the start, all first class and well
broken in"

PROSPECTS FOR

bring a number of prominent citizens
from all parts of Upper East Tennessee.
There will be considerable amount of
business to transact as there are now
about fifty criminal cases on the docket
and three civil causes are to be heard.
The tobacco selling season is draw
ing to close and il is already apparent
that the sales will run TO about one and
a quarter million pounds, nearly half
million pounds more than was expected
at the opening of the market. Although
the bulk of the tobacco has been SOLD,
sales continue in all the warehouses
and much of the tobacco now being sold
comes from a distance. Recently eAr
load arrived from North Carolina and
a considerable amount lately has been
received from Virginia. IT is believed
that the crop this year to be sold OH the
market will reach five million pounds
or more. 1r3-,, II
Present indications are that the builf'-

SOUTH POLE DISCOVERED
BY ROLAND AMUNDSEN
Question About Which Reached the Pole First Amundsen
or Scott But No Word Has Been Received From Scott,
and Amundsen is Generally Given Credit With Having
Been First to Reach Sonth End of the World

Following dispatch stating that
Amundsen had reached the pole
December ii, Lieut. Shackleton who
held record of furtherest South gave
out the following:
"Analyzing somewhat the brief cable
announcing Amundsen's attainment
of the South Pole, one, from previous
experience, would assume the journey
was done with extreme rapidity and
under very favorable conditions as re-
CARDS weather, assuming that the lali
tude of Amnudsen'S winter quarters
was 7S.44 S.; that is only 676 geograph-
ical miles from the Pole. This place
was namad the Bay of Whales on my
expedition.
If Amudsen did fifteen miles dav
and reached the Pole on Dec. IA he
would have started south about the be-
ginning of November, but it is much
more likely he did not travel at that
rate, especially for the first hundred or
two hundred odd miles, so we may
assume he started for the Pole about
the beginning of October. There is no
indication whether Amundsen follow
ed the route of my expedition in
reaching the mountains that guard
the approach to the Pole. 1t may be
possible he found a new route am, an
easier-one up to the plateau, which
lies about 5000 to IL 600 feet above the
sea leve.
"Word that the Pole was attained
Dec. IA to II evidently means that on
reaching the geographical pole he
waited three days, taking the noon
observation so as accurately to deter
mine his position.
continuing, Shackleton said that
if Amundsen left the Pole Dec. II he
would very likely, with fair wind

Delegates were about TO be named to

Then F. r. Forrest, an orator, made
