difficulty in getting the franchise if
voters would only take sufficient in
terest to instruct their congressman
favorably.

Miss Esther Griffin White declared
that the Sixth district suffragists would
try to defeat Finly Gray.
Not because he is a Democrat, or
because Of his record in office on any
other subject, or for personal reasons,
do we oppose him. she said. 1--WE
are not advocating the election of any
one; we are merely opposing a man
who has worked against u.s.
Copies of the Little Paper, contain
ing suffrage cartoon, were distrib-
uted. The party made the trip in an

COUNTY BOARD
REFUSES PLEA
FOR HOSPITAL

Wayne county's tuberculosis hos.
pital will not be built this wear
Ihis was the sentiment of the county
commissioners this morning expressed
to the tuberculosis nurse when she
appeared before the board.
Mordecai Doddridge, president OF the
commissioners board, announced that
no action necessitating such a large
expenditure would be taken until after
the proposition is thoroughly discuss
ed with the county council in its Sep-
tember meeting.
THE council will not be asked to
make an appropriation for the hos
pital at this ume.' Mr.. Doddridge
said
Holds Same Opinion.
William X. Cheesman said there had
not been enough demonstration made
by the people of the county in general
to show the commissioners that they
would be carrying out the peoples
wishes.
William Seaney, the other member
Of the board, said that the quarantine
law of the state against tuberculosis
would have to be made more emphatic
before he would favor the establish.
ment of county tuberculosis hospital.
William Dudley Foulke, president of
the Anti-Tuberculosis society, when in.
formed of the boards decision to de-
lay the building of the hospital. said
that its action was wrong He said
that Mr. Seaney's objection was en-.
tirely unfounded, because there al.
ready exists In the state a quarantine
law against tuberculosis.
