TiIIman Grateful for Support
Given.
To the Democrats OF the 3rd Con-
gresSionaI District:

To the Democrats OF the ord con-
gresSionaI District
The signal honor of a congression-
al nomination, long desired on my
part, was on March 25th, conferred
upon me by the sterling democracy
of the Mountain district. Mere
words are inadequate to make
known my happiness over the out
come of the primaries, or to express
my gratitude to friends responsible
for the result. If elected in
November shall prove my appreci-
alton by dutiful and tireless service
to the party and to the people. |
am ambitious to leave behind me an
honorable career and a spotless
record.
The campaign was fought out in
the open and was a spirited battle,
but now that the tumult has ceased,
we should all be friends, forgetting
the keen thrust. the fierce stroke, the
deadly blow given or received. The
imperious voice of the party has de-
clard it's choice, and now all our late
differences and animosities should be
buried in the dust and silence OF
things forgotten.
To those gallant gentlemen who
followed the standards OF my OPP
ponents say that | ascribe to
them only the highest of motives.
You were but exercising a constitu'
tional right, blood bought and dear
to us all, To my friends who
through evil and though good report
stood bravely by me, acknowledge
a debt Of endless gratitude. To all
let me say that we should now in
harmonious union go forth to the
final fight on November 3rd under
the starry banner Of democracy,
that for a hundred years has waved
over the heads of our fathers, and
our fathers fathers, cheering them
on as they fought side by side with
locked shields against the ancient
foe.
! have the honor to be, with
sincere respect,
Your Obedient Servant,
!. n. TuLMAN.

M achine VS.. Machine Politics.

Recent Developments in Arkansas
politics have produced a demand for
changes in the state election laws,
which will insure that the will OF the
people prevails This demand will
be satisfied, or there will be more
clamor in the next session Of the Ar.
kansas legislature than is promised
in the coming state Democratic con
yention. The people are sore and
tired of machine politics, and they
believe the time has come when
votes must be counted as they are
cast. There is little doubt but that
many counties Of the state turned in
count in the last primary which
will fall under n close scrutiny-or
at least this is the opinion of the
multitude, The people are most
fair in all things, and they want the
man who received the most votes TO
have them counted for him.
The first step to Tectriy the
obsolete system of voting, which
has been in vogue in Arkansas since
statehood was granted it, will be a
bin which will be offered in the next
General Assembly by Ben l.. Griffin,
q member from Pulaski county and
one of the strongest of Clarke
supporters, Representative Griffin
will introduce n measure, which if
passed, will put voting machines in
every precinct in the state 1t is
true that the cost the first year will
be stupendous, but the first is the
real cost and the reduction in cost
of primaries and elections which
comes later and will return the
money in q few years, He will offer
bill patterned after the New York
law, and If it is passed, it will be
possible for the result Of all state
elections 70 be announced early on
the night Of election, and there will
be no question about the result
Accuracy in the count as well as the
saving Of time and the lessening Of
cost of elections, are the three
features which recomend the voting
machine so strongly Accuracy in
the count is what the voters of
Arkansas insist upon,
Voting machines are in the nature
Of a booth similar to those in use
by long distance telephone com.
panies The machine has n set of
keys with a place for registerieg for
each candidate II is impossible 20
punch more than once for any eandi.
date, and II is impossible 70 punch
for more than one in any race, The
vote is counted rs II is registered by
a paper strip, something like chat OF
q piano player. As the voter comes
out, the inner door locks the voting
machine aud registers his vote. The
voter coming in the inner door
there being two 60 the machine
opens il SO that he may register his
vote. The two doors keep the
officials back, and insure privacy to
the voter All the Judges have to do
is to pass upon the qualifications of
the voter There being no chance
for repeaters, the count Of the
machine is absolutely accurate,
It Is suggested by Capt + W.
Tucker for years chairman Of the
State Republican Central Com
mittec, that the plan 80 farther and

SUFFRAGETTES IN WAR TINE.
IN Anti Jccrs at the british Sisters for
Their Want OF Patriotism.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SuN--Sir, am
very much surprised that no one has
pointed out the absolute uselossness OF
the British suffragettes at the present
moment They are the one group In tho
British Empire which Is standing aside
in utter sclhshness and not Offering help
They may argue that they are enemies OF
the Government. but are they enemies of
their country? Surely every political
party has hurled its "hatchet." NJ least
temporarily so why do we not hear Of
the suffragettes organizing hospitals with
the large amount OF money Mt their dis
posal. housing Belgian refugees and nurs-
Ing the wounded Some individuals among
them IRE no doubt doing these things, but
in the mass why do they not prove their
efficiency and observation-disclosures
All this might seem too "womanly" TO
the mlltants so why do they not form
a regiment. made up OF several battalions,
and fight the enemy. Germany? The SUI
fragcttes have claimed physical as we'll
ms mental equality with man. Why then
not show that there are British Amazons?
They might again point out that they are
enemies of Asquith, Harcourt and Church
III. but have the Irish and the Beers
treasured their grievances? No, they
have come forward to help tn" mother
country. The suffragettes may argue that
the War Office would surely refuse them
permission TO fight but did they need the
Governments permission to hack master
pieces in the British Museum, to burn and
cndanger innocent lives In ordinary times?
with the ruses they have employed be-
fore and their ability for organization
they could hire transportation, enlist their
women, buy guns and go 10 the front My
advice to them Is 70 prove what they
preach. that they are the physical and
mental equals OF man

To THE EDITOR OF TIE SuN-Str. In

Is the custom OF many In the community
who call themselves religionists OF one

REGISTRATION INQUIRIES.
The Question a To House Ownership
Explained.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SuN-Sir: I
have read the recent letters in THE sun
relative to the question asked by election
inspectors, "po you own your dwelling
place, or do YOU pay rent"
No inspector has the right to ask any
such question. but many voters volunteer
the Information when II Is not asked
The trouble lies In the fact that the
average voter does not know the meaning
Of the simple word "householder" II Is
Incumbent on the part Of the inspectors
to ind out tho name of the householder.
and when the question Ia asked Are you
the householder" the answer frequently
is, "No. pay rent" or mo. lease IT,"
or mo. II is in my wife's name"
The last answer may he technically cor
rect, but even though II Is II il not the
Information sought after. The informa
ton wanted il the name Of the head OF
the house. II might be boarding house.
with several voters residing there or n
father may have several sons entitled 10
vote. and II is for the purpose of pre-
venting colonization that this Information
is desired.
The police verify every name registered.
and when they fix the responsibility of
the head OF every household the vertical
ton Is simpihed. However az I stated
before, no inspector Is called upon TO ask
whether or not n voter owns the house
ne lives IN.

To decrease the appropriation for

Involves more than the mere suppress
sion of patent extrnvagances and

study Of past accomplishments and
future duties, the balancing OF one
desirable thing against another. the
repression of nou-essentials that wear

compllsh It must prepare themselves for
taunts as "checscparers" and exposure

Because OF this, Mayor mitchell and

allowances for 1918 have been cut by
100000 from the figures OF 1914 de-
serve particular commentator. They
