FALL TOMATOES.

Now is the time to begin to think
Of that fall tomato patch. We can
have tomatoes ON our table in De-
cember just as well as we can In
July. If we only get at 1t right. There
are two ways to procure crop Of
fall tomatoes, one by seed sowing
and transplanting and the other BY
cutting suckers" from the old plants
and useing them as plants. Where
one has enough suckers on the
upring planting to set out the fall
patch do not advise seed sowing
for fall use. The sun = % hot tbs

DEMOCRATIC
CONVENTION
S|DEL|GHTs

One Of the most interesting fea-
lures of the recent Democratic con-
vention at st. Louis is the fact that 1t
took lovely woman to force the only
roll call demanded on the national
platform, as we'll as to inspire the
only real excitement that marked the
convention.
Votes for Women" was the issue
that stirred up things. The Mexican
plank, nailed in at the last minute by
the platform builders, did not create
. ripple. "Americanism" and pre-
paredness" received polite ovations,
but It remained for the woman SUI
frage plank to start a real fracas.
Headed by Gov. Ferguson Of Texas,
the antis endeavored to wrench the
suffrage plank from the platform. But
President Wilson's feelings on the
subject. as presented to the conven-
ton by Senator Walsh Of Montana,
were not to be ignored. And SO, after
q three-hour battle in which the term
political expediency" was used with
telling effect, the ants were routed
by a vote Of SS8h to 1871.
The vote, however. does not tell the
real story Of the battle. which was
one Of the most vigorous and pic
turesQue ever staged at q national
Democratic convention. Fifteen wom-
en- delegates fought from the floor on
the side Of the pro-suffragists. while
hundreds Of their sisters waved yell
low pennants and cheered them on
from the balconies. A thunderstorm
that almost drowned out the voices
Of the delegates as they answered the
roll call brought both the suffrage
battle and the convention to q most
melodramatic finish.

I'VE recommend the extension =

+ country by the states upon the =
+ same terms az to men," =
= = = = + + - + $3.50
It was the above little plank that
inspired Gov. Ferguson of Texas to
mount the platform in the Coliseum
and read minority report withhold
1g the party support from the ladies
who want the vote. That the Demo
cratic party should scorn the political
e1igencies OF the situation and defy
the IL western states in which women
vote was the burden Of his argument.
Sharing the same opinion with him
were c. L. Bartlett Of Georgia,
Stephen B. Fleming Of Indiana and
Jim" Nugent Of New Jersey, the old
time enemy Of President Wilson. This
trio signed the minority report with
the Texan.
Lined up against Gov. Ferguson,
who acted as spokesman for the mi
nority, were Senator Stone of Mis-
souri,, Senator Pittman of Nevada and
Senator Walsh Of Montana.
: Senator Walsh did not mince mat
tiers in his argument for the adoption
of the suffrage plank. He stated plain
" the adoption Of the plank was
necessary a. matter Of political ex-
pediency, adding that the present
political situation In this country was
. condition and not theory.
"The states in which women vote
control 81 votes in the electoral col
lege." he said, adding significantly.
"eveIg political party has declared for
woman suffrage in some way or other.
It becomes simple question whether
you will incur the enmity Of these
women.
'Now, my friends" he continued,
'.as late a. 1907 there were but two
states west Of the Missouri river that
returned Democratic senators and now
We have IL Of them. The question IL.
are you ready to surrender the Is
votes you have In the United States
senate and turn them over to your
political enemies? :"
In conclusion. Senator Walsh said
that he revealed no secret when he
said President Wilson knew all about
the suffrage plank.
"The president believes 1t vital to
his success that it stay in the plat
FORM" he said. Il ask you IN all the
fervor Of my soul. who is there wiser
or. more patriotic than hot"
Following Senator Walsh's speech,
Gov. Ferguson was allowed i've min
utes for rebuttal. The vote was then
taken and his minority report voted
down. after which the original sur
rage plank, AZ approved by the reso.
lutions committee was unanimously
adopted.
The Women Delegates.
The presence Of the Is women dele.
gates at the Democratic convention
not only added color to the AFFAIR. but
changed the views Of . number Of tho
men delegates on the subject Of 20
litical activity for women. For tho
women delegates were q fine, whole
solne-looking lot and they fought Just
as enthusiastically for the best inter.
ests Of the party as the men.
Three Of them. Miss Mary e. Foy
Of California, Mrs. T. 8. Talliaferro
Of Wyoming, and Mrs. W. A. Harris
Of Kansas, spoke before the resolu-
lions committee in favor Of the suf-
frage plank which the National Amer
lean Woman Suffrage Association pre-
scented to the convention.
