Element Makes a
Claim of Victory
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.


Chicago. June 9-The equal suf-
frage element of the General Fedora
tion of WOmen's clubs, which will
meet in biennial session here tomOr-
row night. to-day claimed victory in
a preliminary skiTTnish. The skirmish
took place in q secret meeting of the
general council of the federation yes
terday. A majority of those present
expressed themselves, it is said, in
favor Of allowing woman's suffrage
orga nizationS to have representation
in conventions on an equality with
non political clubs.
Women's clubs are allowed to send
de1ega tes and the state organizations
with which they are affiliated also
present, while suffrage clubs individ-
uaIly may appoint delegates, their
state organizations may not. The
council is said to have indicated yes
terday that it would favor the admit
tance Of delegates from state equal
suffrage organizations.
Every train today brought delega-
tions and the headquarters was busy
with details connected with their
welfare a bit of gossip was that real
practical politicians, with an eye on
the women vote, were working TO keep
the prohibition question from arising
in the convention.
Delegates from Indiana have q can
didate for the presidency of the fed

Schunaon-Heink
Case is 4 warded
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Chicago, June 9-Mme. Ernestine
SCkUmann- Heink was today granted A
divorce from her husband William
Rapp, Jr, whose ardent epistlcs TO
Mrs. Catherine Dean of New York
were the sensation of the suit.
The victory for the famous con
tralto came when Superior Judge sui
livan instructed the jury to return Il
verdict in favor Of the complainant
The divorce hearing was marked
principally by the emotional letters
written by Repp to Mrs. Catherine
Dean of New York. No attempt was
made TO contradict the authenticity
of the letters credited to Rapp and
the, evidence of the defense failed to
show moral obhquity on the part OF
the opera singer.
Nine. Schumann- Heinll showed her
jOE at the verdict.

\ MAN OF PEACE WITH
CHARACTER STRENGTH

At a time like the present when
the nations of Europe are rushing at
each others threats. and humanity
stands aghast at the thought of the
horrors of the impending conflict,
when the spirit of militarism per-
vades the Old World. and the pow
ers are determined upon slaughter,
il is fortunate for the United States
that there is at the head OF the Ma
tional Government a man of peace
with strength of character and force
OF intellect. Happily. no imitation
war lord sits in the White House.
The course which this country must
follow is straight and definite. II
must maintain strict neutrality, and
avoid the slightest appearance of
favor toward one of the belligerents
as against another. II Is the friend
OF each and all of them and must so
remain .-GWaterville tMe.) Sentinel

ELECTION THIS FALL
ITS GREAT IMPORTANCE

The election in Kentucky in No
vember of two United States Sena-
tors and eleven Congressman is
strictly national election. The men
chosen to represent Kentucky in
Congress will either be men who will
hold up their hands and support the
administration of President Wilson
or they will oppose him and fight his
policies The successful candidates
al the polls will have nothing to do
whatever with State matters. Such
questions should very properly be
left 10 next year. when We elect a
State ticket and a Legislature. The
people of Kentucky have but one
question 10 decide when they go TO
the polls-an endorsement or a con-
demnation of President Wilson's ad-
ministration. You can't vote the
Democratic ticket in November with
out an approval Of President Wilson
and you can't show your endorse
ment of our great President any 9th
er way. The election this fall is a
real test of the Democracy of Ken
lucky. whether it is faithful or rec
reant. If you should vote against
any of the Democratic nominees the
influence of such a vote is a con-
demnation of what has been done at
Washington.
We believe that there will be
thousands of Republicans and Pro-
gressiyes who are so much pleased
with what Wilson has accomplished
that they will do like many did in
Maine. stamp under the rooster for
the first time. and that no real true
Democrat will miss his first oppor-
tunity at the polls to put his stamp
OF approval on Woodrow Wilson's
record.-[ Elizabethtown News.

KENTUCKY's BURDEN.

Gov. McCreary has issued a proc
lamation in behalf OF the Kentucky
Illiteracy Commission and especially
as an endorsement OF the moonlight
schools and other methods of reliev-
ing the alarming illiteracy of our
State. lie calls especial attention
10 the fact that There are 0S,0S4
men and women In our State who
can not read and write, and of
whose intelligent efforts along the
lines OF education, religion and gem
eral development and advancement,
the State is deprived, and this con-
stitutes a deplorable situation and
presents a great and urgent need
which should be promptly met and
relieved"
II has often been said that I'VE do
not live alone" that in many ways
we are our brothers keeper" and
in few instances does this apply
more urgently than In the matter Of
education. Illiteracy is a fearful
blight upon any State. county or sec
ton.
The second session OF moonlight
schools begins October ). Every eff
fort possible should be made TO re-
deem Kentnckians from the blight
of illiteracy.
