Noiseless Campaign Going On

Literature in favor of woman suffrage
IS being sent into Alabama now. There
are two or three organizations favoring
woman suffrage in the state already, A
noiseless campaign is going on To the
end that our people could look this evil
square in the face, and combat it in the
open | have determined to challenge to
a joint cebate the only member Of Con-
gress from Alabama who has advocated
in Congress woman suffragfe. Mr.. Hob
son is that member. It was my purpose
to challenge him to meet me in Joint
discussion at some central point in Ala
bama, either in Birmingham or Mont
gomery, and have the debate under the
auspices of the Daughters of the Confed-
eracy who desired to charge a small ad-
mission fee and to give the proceeds
to the Soldiers home in Alabama In
this way we could have helped a good
cause and his argument and mine could
have been given to the press of the state
and the people of Alabama would have
the opportunity to read what two of
their representa- tives had to say upon a
subject about which both of them declare
they had decided convictions.
Approval of Conscience

public question where my judgment was
more thoroughly convinced that | was
right and l have never felt more surely
the approval of my own conscience than
have in the stand that I have taken
against woman suffrage. This woman

Cullman, April 15.-(speciaD-The re-

depot is taking place in Cullman today.

Morrison and A. J. Lamb, Supt of Bridges

The new station, while not yet COM
plete viii be the best on this division
and perhaps the best in the south for a
city the size of Cullman. The Louisville
and Nashville has always done big things
for Cullman, and the spirit of co-opera-
ton between the town and this road is
like that of personal friends The fast
trains will pass through the big ditch
for the first time today and stop at the
new station one mile from the present
depot north. The concrete bridges are
being pushed, and the grade crossings
will be solved for Csllman for all time,
so far as the Louisville and Nashville
Is concerned. In addition to giving the
town good bridges and concrete wall
along the cut, the railroad will have a
park with trees, walks, and seats along
the right in the city, which will
add to the beauty of the town, as these
bridges add to the safety of the public.

grand Jury investigation and one by coun-
Gil. The pusLers of the graft charges
fear a embarrassing verdict from the
council committee and they do not want
to take any chances
Mayor Woodward has been looking for
graft ever since he went into office. He
first turned up an alleged bit of graft
In the fire department. but a committee
made a report exonerating Fire Chief w.
b. Cummings, and now the mayor wants
that case to go before the grand judy.
Also the mayor sees big graft in the
new crematory contract. He saw that
before he went into office, and from the
mayors viewpoint it has been growing
bigger and bigger. With council insist
ing on carrying out this contract and the
mayor opposing 1t, the public has been
unable to determine Just what is the true
situation. The present prospect is that
the crematory, too, will get into the courts
as the result of the mayors refusal to
sign the warrants to pay for 1t, and that
the situation will there be thoroughly
aired.
In the meantime who Is getting all this
graft?
That is the mystery of the situation,
and 1t does not appear to be approach
ing any nearer to definite solution.

HELM SURPRISED
AT HOBSON REFUSAL
TO MEET IN DEBATE

that | was inspired to challenge to de-
bate by some questionable influences that
he suggests might oppose him for the
Senate. This insinuation is unbecoming
to him, unworthy of democratic con-
gressfnan from Alabama, and is without
warrant or excuse. The interests that
inspired me to challenge him to discuss
that question were my own conception
of what is to the highest and best inter-
est of the people OF Alabama, and little
did I dream that when I-desired to chal-
lenge him to discuss with me a public
question about which both of us had de-
cided convictions that my colleague would
cast reflection upon me In his efforts
to play politics and beat a retreat from
the public discussion of a question that
he advocates here, but is afraid to dis
cuss at home
Why Should He Decline?
Why should Mr. Hobson decline to
meet me at some one or two places in
Alabama and discuss woman suffrage? He
is member of Congress from Alabama
and so am I. He is In favor of woman
suffrage and I am opposed to it. lie
advocated woman suffrage in Washing
ton. Why should he refuse to discuss it
in AIabama7 He declares that he has
tions should not be treated lightly. He
declares that woman suffrage is one of
the great questions of our age. Then
why should he discuss 1t in Congress and
hide behind his senatorial candidacy and
raise the white flag when he is asked to
debate the question in Alabama. If Mr..
Hobsons position on woman suffrage is
right, why should he not be willing to
discuss the subject with House colleague
from his own state who denies that his
position is right on that subject?
But Mr.. Hobson says that woman suf-
frage is not an issue in Alabama and yet
he believes In and advocates woman suf-
frage, and he seeks to represent Alabama
in the United States Senate. Is it his
desire to say nothing about woman suf-
frage now with the hope that he can
be elected to the Senate and then advo-
cate it, when If the people of Alabama
oppose such a course it would be too
late for them to speak on the subject?
Does Not Represent States Views
'T claim that Mr.. Hobson does not rep
resent the views of the best interests of
the state on this question of woman suf-
frage and on account of his announced
convictions on that subject and his op-
portunity to misrepresent the people con-
cerning it in the Senate, should he be
elected, makes woman suffrage through
him and his candidacy an issue in Ala
bama. Mr.. Hobson favors woman suf-
frage. He is candidate for the Senate.
Does Alabama favor woman suffrage? Mr.
HosNon declares that he has convictions
on the subject and 1t is reasonable to
suppose that a courageous public man
will advocate his convictions.
''The people of Alabama have right
to know of these convictions of Mr.. Hob
son. and think that proper apprecia-
tion of the peoples rights should cause
him to discuss publicly his convictions on
this subject, and the fairest and best
