DEPART
MENT TO ACCEPT BID

In response to the third call for bids
for carrying the mail between Amos
and DEMO, A. A. Stock has submitted
a proposal to the postofice depart
ment at Washington.
Bids have been called for twice be-
fore, but all were rejected as being
too high. 1t is understood that the
lowest was for a flat price of $3,400
per year for carrying first and sec
ond-class mail, with $50 per hundred
pounds for third and fourth class.
The following petition, which was
circulated about town yesterday and
today, receiving 20 signatures Of bust
ness, professional and mining men,
will be forwarded at once:
Winnemucca, New. Nov. IL, 1914.
Hon. Fourth Assistant Postmaster
General, Washington, d. G.
Dear Sir: We, the undersigned
residents and taxpayers of Humboldt
county, Nevada, beg to hereby advise
that in answer to the advertisement
for bids on the Amos, Nevada, to
DEMO, Oregon, mail route, we have
secured q bidder in the person of Al
bert A. Stock, of Amos, Nevada,
whose bid Of $4,000 for the first and
second class mail and $1.25 per hun
dred pounds for the third and fourth
elias mail matter, is, we believe, very
low and reasonable and we hereby
petition and pray that contract may
be given on this bid, in case no lower
bid is submitted, as we believe that
no lower bid can be consistently sub
mitted.

gon, who is in Winnemucca today, ID

Chamberlain, Of Oregon, stating that
he will do all in his power to have the

SUFFRACISTS CON-
VENE AT NASHVILLE

NASH WILLIE, Tenn, Nov. l2-War-
like talk was heard in the hotel lob
bies today before educational Ameri-
can Woman Suffrage association for
nally opened its six day session here.
Unless early forecasts fail, the bat
tie that will break over the conven-
ton when the merits of the two suff-
rage amendments now before con-
gress come up for discussion will be
the greatest in the history of the or
ganization.
The possibility that the fight over
the two amendments may broaden un-
I'll it develops into an attempt to un-
seat DIR. Anna Howard Shaw, presi-
dent of the association since 1904, was
being discussed by the delegates to-
day. 1t was rumored that the oppo-
sition, if there is any, will center
about Mrs. Grace Wilbur Trout, pres
ident of the Illinois Equal Suffrage
association, as its nominee for the
presidency.
tmtion'' favor the Shafroth amend
ment, submitted to congress by the
Colorado senator and providing that
the question of ballots for women be
submitted to each state by initiative
petition. The congressional union,
the younger school of suffragists, fa-
vor the Bristow- Mondell amendment,
also known as the "Susan B. Anth-
ony'' amendment, providing votes for
women by amendment of the Federal
constitution. The union holds that
the Shafroth amendment is eomplicat-
ed and unnecessary.
This is by no means the only ques-
tion over which the union and the ad-
ministration disagree. The union
frankly urges the defeat Of Demo
cratic congressman, unless openly for
women suffrage, on the ground that
the Democratic party as the party in
power, is responsible for the failure
of women to obtain the vote. The ad-
ministrating forces desire to maintain
the non-partisan character of the as
sociation at any cost and insist that
success will crown their efforts ulti-
mately without such militant politi-
cal methods.
That the breach between the two
fations is really quite serious was
recognized this year when Miss Kate
Gordon, of Louisiana, president of the
southern woman's suffrage confer
ence, summoned the conference to
meet here two DAYS in advance of
the national association meeting, to
thresh ont some of the matters that
are to be fought out during the con-
vention.
A street parade, in which many
southern society leaders will partiei-
pate, is to be one of the features of
this years convention. Another
event will be barbecue at "The
Hermitage the home of Andrew
