HIS CoMRUNES ALL FAILED
VINO Started Saint simoniss
Colonies In Tsxas-

Seventy years ago 4 French settle
ment was made at Reunion, Tex, by
q group of disciples of the social re.
form proposed by Saint Simon. The
moving spirit Of the colony was
Jacques Etienne Normand. Adopting
the theories of the Saint Simonists,
Normand associated himself with
Barthelemy Enfantin and later with
Jean Eeybaud. Dlsagreements arose
and Normand assumed independent
leader-h.p of a faction; In the revo-
luton of 1S4S he sought permission to
organize a community of his follow
ers In Picardy. When Louis Napoleon
become prince-president he promptly
expelled Normand from France. In
1851 Normand found his way to Texas
and Joined forces with Victor Consid-
Grant, also expelled from France. Nor
mand was abundantly supplied with
funds and bought 1000 acres near San
Antonio, on which he established the
commune of La Reunion. The morals
OF the community were not above re-
proach, even in a border community.
and Considerant urged that commun-
ism should extend to the community
OF women, who we're said to be no bet
ter than they should be, hence Texas
expelled them all. In 1857 Normand
endeavored to establish a commune
near Ell Pase and in 1851 he renewed
the attempt at La Reunion. For the
last attempt he was sent to prison for
i've years. He died in San Antonio
In 1857.

ton Opposed to Woman Suffrage, believes
that Mrs. Mcdill Mccormick and the Ma
tional Woman's Suffrage Association have
embarked on course Of mllltancy in line
with the tactics of the British suffragettes
Mrs. Dodge let this be known to-day in
commenting on yesterdays published
statement of Mrs. Mccormick, chairman
OF the congressional committee OF the Ma
tional Womans Suffrage Association that
the organization would oppose candidates
for Office hostile to woman suffrage.
Mrs. Mccormick openly avows the in
tention Of the suffra gists to have no con-
sideration for and TO take no interest in
integrity in politics, wisdom Ia statesman
ship or serious concern for the welfare OF
the country said Mrs, Dodge. The
equal franchise according to her takes
precedence over everything.
I'm other words here IL the miitancy OF
the ballot instead OF the militancy of the

Great Britain only in the means employed.
1t Is identical with 1t in the motive be-
hind 1t and the end desired
Thus 1t Is sought to make woman suf-
frage universal in this country by Der.

to Dr, Anna Shaw's doctrine of passive
resistance to the collection by the Govern
ment of the income tax from women Mrs

themselves.
The Speaker and the Clerk of the As

candidate for Speaker will he held behind
closed doors Tuesday night IN the Assem-

Assemblyman Humans friends insist
that he will be elected Speaker OF the As

made several gains during the last few
days and that a majority of the Repub-
lican Assemblymen are for him.
Another impression Is that the dozen

with perhaps one exception. Mr.. Hon.
