The general purport of the act is

votes which the state has not decided
OF has decided irregularly.
Fortunately, there are now no dual
state governments anywhere. Nor IS
there enough left of the unreasoning
partisanship Of 1876 to sustain at
tempts to capture a states vote by
trickery and fraud. We believe that
each state will unhesitatingly accept

which there may be a disagreement
to the state courts.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE
LOST IN TWO State

Woman suffrage amendments were
evidently beaten in the two States that
voted on the question Tuesday. In
South Dakota, with 200 precincts still
to be heard from. the vote stood o.
934 for and 25,24S against the amend
ment.
West Virginia, the other State to
vote on the proposition, rejected it
overwhelmingly. The returns from
S43 out Of the 1.713 precincts in the
State Showed 33,SS7 for and 72,472
against it.
NEW YORK. Nov 10.-Leaders Of
the cause of woman suffrage in this
city believed that without the votes
of women in the West, Hughes would
have been elected President by a con-
siderable majority in the electoral
college. OF the 81 electoral votes in
States where women vote A went for
Wilson; the 10 votes of California
were uncertain, and the 20 votes of
Illinois and the of Oregon were for
Hughes
Estimates OF majorities of women
for President Wilson are based on the
observation of the apparent popularity
with the women Of the argument that
he saved the country from war.

.MAURI GOLF CLUB
IS REORGAN|zED TO
CONTINUE PLAY
LARGE AND ENTHUSIASTIC MEET
ING sUBscRIREs NECESSARY
FUNDS FOR CLUB.
TKENIY.FOUR NUMBERS PRESENT
To Have Even More Successful Season
During FaII-Golf Links Have Been
Especial Benefit to Sport Fans Since
Tennis Courts Have Been Wet.

At a large and enthusiastic meeting
Of the Maury County Golf Club held
in the circuit court room, a complete
reorganization of the club was effected
in order that the members might con-
tinue to play the game until winter.
OF the thirty-three members of the
club twenty-four were in attendance.
Due to several causes the club had
not secured as many members during
the summer, as had been thought prob
able. Something of shortage had
thus been caused in the necessary
funds to maintain the course. At this
meeting all funds were subscribed to
enable the club to continue its sue,
cessful season.
The Maury County Golf Club was
organized at the beginning of the sum-
mer. The campus of the Columbia
Military Academy was layed off in the
golf course, one of the best in Middle
Tennessee, an instructor was secured,
and play began. Since its organization
the members of the club have become
more and more enthusiastic about the
game and it has become a great bene-
fit to the city and county by giving to
the members of the club chance to
get out in the open for exercise II
has been especially useful to the sport
fans since, due to the continual rains
the courts of the Columbia Tennis
Club have been unfit for play during
most of the summer. So much interest
has been displayed in golf that the
club hopes to be able, after the winter
months to begin the spring with an
even larger membership and to have
an even more successful year than the
present one.

four SALES IN THREE liars
Every Time There Has Been a Good
Profit, The Aggregate Advances Be-
ing More Than $17,50o-Is One Of
Best Places in Zion Section.

The Ffguers Realty Co. has resold
what is most Familiarity known in this
county as the old Fred Watkins home
stead in the Ashwood section of the
county near Zion. This time the farm
was sold to oliver H. Morehead, of
Marian, Indiana, by J. H. Dining, for
$4,000. Practically every foot of the
land is rich and fertile and will pro-
duce any kind of grain or grasses.
There is quite bit of interesting
history about the way this property
has changed hands within the past
three years. The farm contains 365
acres and the last time it sold it
brought fraction more than $4,000
per acre. Mrs. Mary Watkins placed
the farm in Mr.. Fguers' hands for sale
about three years ago, or shortly after
Mr.. Figuers engaged in the real estate
business. 1t was not long before this
hustling dealer in dirt converted the
farm into real money for its owner,
Mrs. Watkins receiving $22,509, and
every farmer in Maury county thought
that the farm sold cheap, which 1t did
DR.. o j. Porter was the fortunate
purchaser, and he, after owning the
farm only four months, re-sold II
through the Ffguers Realty Co. to F.
A. Nolan, Of Florence, for $36, 500.
Mr.. Nolan owned the place eighteen
months and did some improving, in
the way of cleaning up and harvesting
splendid crop. Again Mr. Figuers
stepped in and sold the place to J. H
Dining for $3S,5O0, making a ne,
profit of $4,000 and a splendid crop
for Mr.. Nolan. Mr. Dining bought
the place last February, and at the
time he bought it he told Mr.. Figuers
to sell it for him. After owning the
place seven months he closed a dea
Monday through the Figuers Co., witt
Oliver H. Morehead for $4,000. Max
ing four transfers Of the property with
| in the short space Of three years, al
through the same real estate concern
and at an increase Of value In round
numbers of $17.50O.
There Is a great reason for the in
crease in Maury county lands. Tht
natural productiveness, its advantages
Of crop rotations, and climatic condi
tons, all go { omake the land NOR,
valuable than lands in other sections
Its easy access to the greatest marke
Of all kinds of farm products, in thu

acknowledged the country over to b
the best small town in the Unite'
States for all classes Of trade and bus
ness.
The report Of the real estate deal
for the first eight months Of this yeal
show that $1,372,9S0 worth Of land ha
changed hands, over $95S,S90 for tn
same months of 1915. This month ha
started off, and promises to eclips
