An important point was raised N
the debate on woman suffrage, which
has not received much attention,
but it is known that it has been
the source of deep consideration in
the Southern states. 1t Is In re-
gard to the status of the negro when
this war is over and when the negro
soldiers return to the United States.
The point was raised in the senate by
two Southern senators, Hardwick OF
Georgia and Vardaman of Mississippi,
both of whom have been defeated for
denomination. Both were somewhat
alarmists on the subject. Hardwick
said:
1.-THE South is going to have
heavier white mans burden to carry
than 1t ever had in that period Of re-
construction which followed the Civil
war. That may sound like strong
statement to senators who do not live
in the South and who may not under
stand the situation"
He then went on to explain what
had happened In the South in the way
of revising the electoral franchise,
which was done for the purpose Of
keeping the negro from voting. In
state constitutions, in order to allow
white men who could not pass educa-
tional tests to vote, provisions were
made that soldiers and the descend
ants Of soldiers could vote. Hardwick
went on to explain:
"Now this war has come on. We
have drafted impartially from the
male population of the South, and If
the war lasts long we will draft hun
dreds of thousands and it may be
million or more negroes of voting age
In the South, who will go into the
service Of the country under the
Stars and Stripes and to France.
When they come back, under our own
state constitutions, the only ones we
could write under the Constitution of
the United States, they come back as
fully enfranchised as any white voter
In any one of the states, and they
come back exempt from the educa-
tional tests and the property tests of
the states Of the South"
Vardaman, although supporting
woman suffrage, said there was force
In the objection which the Southern
men made that it would be more diff
ficult to get along with the negro wom-
an than the negro man. But referring
to the other phase of the situation, in
regard to what will happen after the
war, he said: This war is going to
intensity the difficulties which must be
met at first by the Southern white
people. The arrogance and inpudence
of the negro ex-soldier will enhance
the white mans burden"
While these are the only utterances
made publicly, there has been a great
deal of discussion among men In the
South and considerable apprehension
expressed about what will happen In
relation to the negroes when these sol
diers return from the war However
that viii be only one of the many
problems which the war will place be-
fore the American pepole.

dates to get all the votes they could.
An observing newspaper man who
has recently had an opportunity to
take trip throughout the country dis
tricts finds that the people are talk
ing about winning the war and are
more interested In the Liberty loan
and the success Of the American
troops than they are in anything else
An experienced politician who has
been member of the house and gov
ernor of his state, and Is Now Unit
ed States senator, once msde the sage
remark that the American people set
tied only one thing at time. And
the one thing which the American peo-'
pie now are settling is the German
autocracy. That is wrat they are
thinking about in the cities and IN
the towns and throughout the farming
districts. Almost without exception
everybody is engaged IN an earnest
effort to do what he can to win the
war
Naturally there is not any time for
politics. Most of the people do not
believe that it makes any difference
whether there is Republican or Dem
ocratic house of representatives. Inc
men of both parties have been praised
on all sides for what they have done
to aid the president in carrying on the
war and it is no doubt fact that
whichever party is in power, the same
strong support will be accorded the
administration until success Is
achieved.

Probably 1t Is just as well that there
should be cessation of politics
during the period that the Lib
erty loan is going over. 1t is
doubtful whether the people of the
United States will care TO have more
than two weeks of real campaigning
this year. Here in Washington, of
course, politics are on tap all the time
and there is a great deal of interest as
to whether the house will be Demo-
cratic or Republican rext time, or
whether the Republicans viii make
any particular gains in the senate. But
that is not the case outside of Wash
tngton. This has been shown in the
primary campaign where such very
small PERCENTAGE of the total vote has
been cast although vigorous efforts
have been made on the part Of candi-

President Wilson delights in sur
prise parties. From the time he be-
came president he has taken occasion
to surprise people in different ways;
to surprise senators and representa-
tives by visits to the capitol; to sur
prise officials in the departments by
dropping in on them Unexpectedly. OF
course the greatest surprise was when
he decided TO deliver his messages in
person to congress. His most recent
surprise was upon the senate OF the
United States, and that. indeed, was
very great surprise. For the presi-
dent to go to the senate and in
speech directly urge them to vote for
a constitutional amendment was some
thing entirely out of the ordinary;
something which never happened be-
fore in the history of the government.
One reason why the senate was taken
by surprise was because congress has
been Of the opinion that the amending
of the Constitution was wholly leg
islative function; that this was one
act in which the concurrence of the
executive was not required and which
rested wholly with congress. There
fore, there was a great deal of COM
ment in and about the senate upon
the surprise which the president
sprang upon that body ty going to
them and urging them to vote for wom-
ar suffrage. Naturally the public
comment was very guarded and not
very critical, but what senator's said
in private indicated plainly that they
thought the president had taken very
bold course.

Germany's great drive into the

seems virtually at standstill to-
day. Her first great onrush ap-
pears to have been stemmed, with
large gains Of territory scored, but
with final victory no nearer in

French and British troops beat
back the enemy last night in his
