NEW HAMPSHIRE SOLON
OUT FOR THE CAUSE

Declaring his belief that an equal suf'
frage amendment to the Federal Con-
stitution would pass both houses of the
present Congress at the first regular
session. Senator Hollis of New Hampshire
predicted yesterday that Maine. Massa,
chusetts. and his own State would ratify
such a measure.
Mr.. Hollis, the first Democrat to rep
resent his State in the upper House since
the civil war, is working for the amend
ment in and out of the Capital.
New England is conservative and
slow to adopt political reforms such as
this" he said. In most of the States,
especially IN New Hampshire and Massa-
chusetts, the suffragists are active, but
they have stirred up great deal of
opposition. Equal suffrage was defeated
in Maine last winter by a close vote. and
in New Hampshire and Massachusetts
by large majorities. The feeling now is
that equal suffrage is likely to come
through the Federal government sooner
than through State action.
Il believe the Senate Committee on
Elections is strongly in favor of woman S
suffrage"

POLK PORT COLLECTOR.
Appointment Not Confirmed by the

There is no longer any doubt that
James L. Polk, former president of the
New York Civil Service Commission, will
be collector of the port Of New York.
II was said at the White House last
night that the place has not yet been
rendered to Mr. Polk, but it is regarded
as practically certain that the President
has approved of his selection
1t is known that Secretary of the
Treasury McAdoo favors the appoint
nent and has SO notified Mr.. Wilson.
President Wilson had a long conference
early last evening with Senator OGor
man of New York, and il is believed
that he consulted the Senator in regard
to the appointment.
What Senator OGoSnaan's attitude is
toward this appointment has not been
made known. but the general impression
in Washington has been that Mr. O'Gor-
man would be found supporting Mr.. Will

several large anti-suffrage meetings here.
Mrs. A J. George ridiculed the state
ment of Senator Hollis of New Hamp-

She said the Senator must have very
short memory. and said that his state
ment was only worthy of ridicule.

inserted in the Record the article of Will
liam Randolph Hearst, in which Presi-
dent Wilson is denounced as "a free

document pretty good campaign material
from a Republican point of view, sought
recognition and made his motion.
dozen Democrats leaped to their feet
with objections, while the Republicans
laughed.
The Hearst article was the subject of
a good deal of comment. Its references
to the tariff were distinctly disapproved.
inasmuch as the Democratic leaders,
