SPLIT IN SUFFRAGE
RANKS IS Widening
Mrs. Medill Mccormick Says Congress
sional Unions Insistence on eau
Gus Blocked ~Cause" in House.
PLANS EXTENSIVE CAMPAIGN

I'VE are blocked in the House as a
direct result Of the Congressional Union
having put the Democratic party on
record" said Mrs. Medin Mccormick,
chairman of the Congressional commit
tee of the National American Woman
Suffrage Association. in explaining the
present status in Congress
I'VE are disagreeing on a very healthy
issue. II Is sign that the suffrage
movement has become SO live that there
are different points to view about II.
Our discussion Is purely one of policy
and has nothing to do with personalities
Our policies are Numerically opposed
to each other. Last February our COM
mittee was bitterly opposed to the eau
Gus on suffrage. because We felt that il
would be extremely disastrous to have
the Democratic party at so early
period go on record against woman suf-
frase. which they promptly did. This
caucus action is now blocking us in the
House of Representatives"
Speaking of the Bristow-Mondell reso-
luton. Mrs. Mccormick asserted that the
committee was working for 1t now, and
up to the last minute.
THE Congressional Union is trying to
force US into the position of having aban-
doned the old Susan B. Anthony amend
ment. known as the Bristow-Mondell
resolution. This Is entirely untrue. The
National Association is obliged to sup
port this resolution. ! know We cannot
pass it at this session. and do not think
1t is likely to pass for five or six years.
The chances of the Shafroth resolution?
l believe we could pass that next year.
We consider the Bristow resolution the
millennium for suffrage legislation. but we
believe equally ardently that the SHAFT
roth resolution is the quickest way to
get suffrage"
Mrs. Mccormick said she is now out
lining plans for a vigorous campaign in
the Western States. particularly in Mich
igan, Minnesota, Missouri. Louisiana, ILL
nois. Wisconsin. and Iowa. Later atten-
ton will be given Nebraska Montana,
North Dakota, South Dakota, and Ne
vada- These latter five States will vote
on woman suffrage next November.

Mrs. Curtain grew almost angry. Il am
a spiritualist because ! believe in God
who is a spirit" she said, but am
not a so-called spiritualist, as I have
been slurred. I am a holy spiritualist,
also a divine healer.
That was the difference between my
sweetheart and myself" Mrs. Curtain
confessed. He was Just a regular spir-
itualist and did not accept the Bible or
Jesus Christ, SO We parted after ten
years courtship."
She complained that no preacher had
come to see her in prison and then asked:
Where are all the ungrateful people 1
healed? They are like the lepers that
never come back to thank the Lord"
Whereupon she repeated that she was
not afraid. and snapped her fingers
Il have not been a detective for thirty
five years, without learning something"
she exclaimed. Let them come on with
their dirty work against me. / have
the papers and 1 intend to keep them.

DYNAMITE KILLS cow.

eral sticks of dynamite did not agree
with a COW on the farm of George Kill
patrick at Kerr's Greek in Delaware
County, and the animal is dead. Several
other COWS which tasted of the explosive
were only slightly affected.
The dynamite had been placed in sec
tons OF the pasture FOR use in blowing
out holes for telephone poles. While the
cows owner thinks the company which
placed the dynamite in the pasture should
pay for the animal. the company con-
tends death was not due directly to the
