FOURTH TRIBUNE SUFFRAGE POLL

sitions than men. One Of his assist
nnts asserted that he would rot vote
for the amendment "for a million"
Two lawyers argued the question for
a minute and both voted undecided"
ppm against IL because my wife
doesn't want 20 vote" said one man.
81 believe that most women don't
really care whether they vote or not.
I've noticed little enthusiasm among
MY wife's friends, and this leads me
10 the conclusion that a lot of women
have become feverish over this new
bauble and won't rest until It's given
them, like a new dress they like very
much"
An official who was In hurry 20

down for it. I'm for women voting
every time"
Are they going 70 vote on the
woman suffrage question: asked a
trainman. ~ didn't know II. I'm un-
decided how will vote"
Residents OF the West Side Branch
of the Young Mems Christian Associ-
alton favor woman suffrage by a vote
Of 2 TO /.
Every man in the building, it was
found by Tribune canvassers, had a
definite opinion as to the merits or
dement's of universal suffrage. Not a
single mark was placed in the "unde-
cided" columns OF the blank ballots
The total vote polled was 90 in IA
vor Of woman suffrage and q
opposed. Many of the residents were
not OF voting age; others had not
registered for other reasons or were
ineligible to vote on Election Day.
Only those who were enfranchised IN
the state were counted in on The
Trbune's straw vote.
Through the courtesy Of J. e. Ny
han, business secretary Of the West
Side Branch, a blank ballot was placed
in the mail box Of every man living
in the building The marked slips
we're not collected until the following
day. giving each prospective voter time
20 sleep on" the question. Perhaps
that accounted for the absence Of any
undecided voters.
81 am proud that can vote against
IT," the occupant Of Room 5l3 wrote
across his ballot.
One voter, in marking a cross In the
affirmative column, added a note stat
ing that he had voted on the measure
IN OnlO year hSp' Gnu
fore. not permitted to vote in New
York this fall
"Have not been in the county lono
enough to vote. but would vote yes,
wrote another honest young man.
Only one New Jersey voter was oc-
cupying a room in the building, and
he declared that he favored woman
suffrage and would vote that way.
The experience Of Tribune repre-
sentatives in taking polls in other
buildings in the city was repeated at
the Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton. The question was taken with
utmost seriousness, and the alacrity
with which the voters voiced their
opinions. either in favor or opposed
indicated that they had given It deep
consideration and that, even with the
election two weeks distant, they had
arrived at definite conclusions.

- TeIegr.ph . nc Trlbune ]

Princeton, y. J., Oct. 19.-Prince-
ton defeated the woman Suffrage
amendment to-day by majority OF
1872. The figures show 502 favoring
the measure and 6S4 opposing,
heavy vote for Princeton. The town
ship of Princeton further added to
the majority against the measure,
the figures being SO for and SO
against.
President Wilson's district reject
ed the measure by 81 to $50 votes.
The rather heavy negro vote in this
district is held to have decided the
result there. The only districts to
favor the amendment were the first
and second. and here the vote of the
students of the university and semi
nary was n factor.

TAFT CONDEMNS PATRONAGE
Would Limit Presidents Appointments
TO Cabinet and Secretaries.

Appointments should not be made by
the President Of the United States ex-
cept in the case of the Cabinet officers
and in the selection of n political un-
der-secretary in each department, ac-
cordng to the view Of ex-President
william Howard Taft. expressed last
night in his third lecture before the
Columbia University Institute Of Arts
and Sciences. in the Horace Mann audi
forum. Federal and local appoint
merits, with the inseparable controver-
sizes with Senators before their con-
hrmAtion is given, waste the Presi-
dents time. Mr.. Taft asserted.
To save the judges in the Federal
courts from what Mr. Taft termed
their judicial selves. he would have all
patronage taken from them. The ap.
pointment of receivers for the rail
roads which come under the super
vision OF the equity courts might with
advantage be put into the hands Of the
Interstate Commerce Commission, sub
ject 20 the approval Of the courts.

Of straw ballots. There is no obliga-

three days is 3.427, Of which 1873 are
for" 1919 against" and 1886 persons
