Chattanooga, Sept. 15.-Gov. Rob

unpopular measure and guarantee to

why the governor does not intend to

He proposes to change the working

put enforcement Of the provisions Of
the act nearer the people themselves.

CHAPTER Vi
BONES CREEK.

In the early summer Of 1850, ther
were four persons standing on tn
top of Roane Mountain. They stOO
near the spot where the great Cloud

life of an American E->a.. ooa7ma1.
These people axe now poor ana ID
scure, but they are destined soon to
become famous-the woman, as the
mother of the first white child born in
the state of Tennessee, and the first
woman that ventured into the wilds
of the unexplored west-the men, as
great hunters, pioneers and settlers.
The student of history will readily
recognize the intrepid Captain Will
liam Bean and his heroic wife, their
friends Daniel Boone and Andrew
Greer. Mr.. Bean and his wife have
come down from Virginia into North
Carolina on a visit. Boone, Bean and
Greer have formed the plan Of spend
ing the summer in hunting, over on
Wautauga; and Mrs. Bean, by her re-
quest, is allowed to go with them to
do their cooking.
They stand enraptured by the mag
nificent view which breaks upon their
sight. The Wautauga and Holston
country, at the time these pioneers
saw it, was one of the loveliest val
leys on the face Of the globe.
The great forest stood like thick
clustered shade trees ia vast mead
ow Of green, which was bedecked
with wild flowers in the full bloom
and beauty Of early June. The
streams were unsurpassed in beauty. y
Is it any wonder that the Cherokee 7

tastes Of delight, when from some o
high bluff, he saw the limpid waves, n
the graceful curves, the white, sandy, g
pebbly shore, the rolling shoals, and "
the crystal spray of this most beau NJ
tiful Of all rivers? o.
The virgin soil of the valleys was 81
fertile in the extreme. The forests al
.bounded in game, and the rivers and
.reeks were full of fish. To our pi-
,neers this country was a Gland of en-
Canaan.
As there were no Indian claimants nc
or one hundred and fifty miles, it is m
lot strange that these people, few ma
ears later, decided to "come over US
nd possess the land" at
The hunters proceeded down the

.pring about u mile above the mouth
of the creek. AS Boone had prOmis-
ed, they found plenty of wild game,
bear, deer, turkey and small game in
abundance, but no buffalo, as yet.
Only few very old tracks, were the
only proof that buffalo ever roamed
the hills and valleys.
Their camp was only a temporary
and very indifferent shelter. Two
large poles rested on top Of pen
which was built one end on a large
fallen log and the other end in some
forks. On these poles some |
other pieces were placed across, for
rafters, on these were laid large
pieces of birch bark, for boards and
weighted down with poles; and the
first hunters camp in Tennessee was
finished.
"Tain't fur from here to the Old
Long Island Fort, is it," said Bean,
one day.
"No, not more'n fifteen or twenty
miles," said Boone.
"Let's go down thar said Greer. y
Il helped to build that old Fort, :

So they all made ready to go down !

PROHIBITION TO LIE OVER

Washington, July 6. - Legislation
for the enforcement Of wartime and
constitutional prohibition probably
will not be enacted for two months at
least as the result Of the decision to-
day Of Republican leaders to have the
house recess from August to Sep
TENDER 8.
Senate leaders have indicated that
many changes would be made in the
house bill, and even should the senate
pass its measure before the house re-
convened in September considerable
time would elapse before final en-
forcement, as the difference between
the senate and house would have to
be threshed out in conference.
Final decisidon to have the house
recess for more than a moath was
reached today after conferences be-
tween Republican leaders of the two
houses. Little opposition to the plan
was expressed by senators, it was
said, but there was no suggestion
that the senate take a recess. Besides
the treaty with Germany and import
ant matters are before the senate and
its committees. These include mill
tary and railroad legislation as we'll
as contested nominations.

MAY REINSTATE
WAR RISK POLICIES

Washington, July 25.-Discharged
service men who let their government
insurance lapse were given the privi-
lege Of reinstating their policies
within Is months without payment Of
back premiums, under an order sign
ed today by Secretary Glass,
The new reinstatement regulation,
one Of number under consideration,
designed to make it possible for every
discharged soldier, sailor and marine
to continue government insurance af-
ter his return to civil life, is regarded
as the most liberal ever offered by
any insurance organization. The only
requirement is that the man request
ing reinstatement must be in as good
health as at the time of discharge and
must pay the premium for the one
onth of grace in which his insurance
vas continued after he stopped pays
ment and the premium for the month
in which he requests reinstatement.
Premiums for the intervening months
will not be required.
Should a lapse again occur, after
the is months from date Of discharge,
may be made provided
such insurance shall not have lapsed
more than one year.
The order made it clear that the
new ruling doegnot automatically re-
instate any policy. Every man who
allows his policy to lapse is without
until he voluntarily applies
for reinstatement.

TENNESSEE WOMEN
HAVE RIGHT TO VOTE

The supreme court at Nashville last
Saturday upheld the 1919 suffrage act
giving women the privilege Of voting
in all municipal and presidential
elections, all that was asked of the
legislature, and all that could be de-
pnended under the constitution of
Tennessee.
The victory of the women is COM
plete. 1t is more than complete. if
it can be made possible because they
get the ballot without the restriction
of poll tax payment to exercise it.
The act did not contemplate that
they should take part in the election
Of state and county officers because
the choosing of these officers is con-
fined to the male voters of the state
by the constitution.
But it is a beginning which is sure
to have far-reaching results. These
results are already exercising the
minds Of political leaders, particularly
in Memphis, who are mostly Of one
mind that a special session Of the
legislature is necessary to provide for
poll tax qualification. Gov. Roberts
has indicated his intention Of calling
the legislature for that purpose. It
is understood that prominent women
leaders will join in the request, for
they do not want any advantage that
male voters do not enjoy.
The 1919 act purposely omitted the
poll tax qualification because those
who drafted the act feared such a
provision might affect its validity.
But now that the supreme court has
upheld their right to vote without
poll tax, the necessity for additional
legislation, particularly application to
the Middle and West Tennessee coun-
ties having large negro population
is obvious
Saturdays victory brings long
campaign to an end. It was hard
enough to get the bill through the
legislature, but seldom has law I'M
dergone a more vigorous test than
the suffrage act during the last few
months.
No sooner had the legislature pass
ed the law than Col. John ]. Vertrees,
one Of the most astute Of the astute
Nashville lawyers, declared that wo-
men should never vote in Tennessee
as long as he lived. He assailed the
law in the chaneery court Of Davidson
county. He raised many objections,
the chief of which was the poll tax
restriction. Capt. Fitzhugh and other
champions Of the law, filed demur-
rer.
Chancellor Newman overruled the
demurrer and enjoined the state cleo
ton board from putting the law into
effect.
Then came the battle in the supreme
court. Interest in this legal battle
was keen, but the women in Tennessee
had been in fights before. Years ago
for women was an issue, but
It was pressed quietly. There was no
agitation about it. Politi-
cal leaders were conferred with and
much work was done, but few results |
