Charles had attempted to intimidate
the House Of Commons into doing
his will by storming the halls, sacred
to the elected representatives of Ule
people Nevertheless, when Crom-
wells soldiers captured Charles and
called upon the commons to proceed
against him, the sense of lawful pro-
cedure was too strong among a ma
jority OF the members for them to
act in so unpreced case.
Thereupon, the Cromwell warriors
under command of Colonel Pride.
employed what was after called
"Pride's purge" They forcibly ex-
PEELED 143 members Of the commons
who were favorable to Charles.
Other members of the house prudent
~ remained away, until there were
only about fifty In attendance. This
body was the famous trump parlia-
ment." On January I, 1649, it de-
clared Charles guilty to treason. The
House Of Lords refused to agree, and
the Commons resolved that the right
of legislation was possession of the
commoners alone. They also declared
they could make laws without the
Kings consent. m. ~. e..
Then the rump established high
court OF justice comprising some $50
members to try Charles. The NOM
arch announced he was above the
law, and asked for the authority of
his judges. He was told he was be-
ing tried by the authority Of the
English people who had elected him.
Charles retorted his title was heredi-
tary, not elective, and had been 30
for q thousand years. Eaa &
The eminent legal authorities fyof
England supported the Kings claim,
but the soldiers of Cromwell had no
interest in legal technicaltties,
though many of the judges refused
to go on with the trial. At the finaf
session only sixty-two were present.
They unanimously declared Charles
guilty. Jurists down to the present
day have held the verdict illegal, but
Charles was led to the block In.
Whitehall, January 80, 164S, and
lost his head at a single blow OF the
-executioner's axe. N
The only effort that has been made
in American history, to remove the;
chief executive was strictly legal. A
bill impeaching President Andrew
Johnson was passed by the House Of
Representatives and was sent to the
senate on March 4, 1868. The prin-3
cipal accusation was that johnson.
had disobeyed the tenure Of office
act, which prohibited the removal
from office, without the senate's'
consent, of any person whose APP!
pointment had! to be confirmed by.
the senate. In reality, the impeach- Il
ment followed bitter quarrel be-
tween Johnson and congress because.
of Johnson's lenient reconstruction
policy after the Civil war. Z
Johnson was brought to trial be-
fore the senate, as provided for in.
the constitution. It required a two
thirds majority to convict. The vote
stood thirty-five for conviction to
nineteen aginst, one less than the
necessary two-thirds. Johnson was
thus acquitted. Six years after his
term as president expired, he was
elected to the United States senate
from Tennessee, but died within
few weeks Of this vindication. il

WOMEN SLOW TO
REGISTER FIRST DAY
EARLY Returns Show Them
Outnumbered Three and Four
to One by Men.
REVERSED BY NEGROES
Few Districts Send Complete
Reports-BrOOklyn in the
Same Condition.

New York's first day of registration
for the 1919 election was conspicuous
chiefly, &c Tar as the early returns in
dictated, for the failure of the women
voters TO take advantage Of their right
of franchise. When the polls opened
noticed that nearly everywhere men
waiting to register outnumbered the
women three and four to one. This
condition was borne out in the first
figures to reach Police Headquarters last
night after the registration places had
closed. The first Assembly, district to
return Its days report complete was the
sixteenth of Manhattan. The report
showed that the districts total regis
tration had been 2,190. Only 479 women
registered. however. as against Iii
men.
The reports trickled into Police Head
quarters with unprecedented slowness.
The police said this was due almost en-
tirely to the regulations which compelled
them to count the women registrants
separately, instead of treating them Just
Ike ordinary registrants or voters. At
1 o'clock this morning only five Assem-
bly, districts had made complete reports
and 1t appeared as II the total figures
for the city would not be available for
many more hours, perhaps not until late
to-day. In all of the districts that did
report, however, it was plain to the reg
istration clerks that the turnout of pros
pective voters was extraordinarily light
Harlem's negro districts appeared to
be the only place where women outnum-
Erred the men who registered. There
the women showed up early in the eve
ming hours, and before the closing hour
approached in several instances outnum-
bered the men two to one
Brooklyn kept close pace with Man
haitian so far as the scarcity OF women
registrants was concerned. The first
district to report there was the Thir-
tenth Assembly district 1t showed a
total of 1,191 men and only 232 women.
The Twenty Assembly district.
also Brooklyn, returns showed 2.3S1 men
registered as against 500 women. Man.
hattan's Second Assembly district regis
tered 1870 men and only 1855 women,
while the Eighth district had l,1S7 men
and 223 women.

I'VE have one-half the necessary rati-
fications," Miss Paui-said. Seventeen

call extra sessions II women are to be
enfranchised in time to vote for Presi-
dent next autumn
A letter from Mrs. William Kent OF
California detailed how the japanese

session there. California being a full
suffrage State no doubt exists that II
will ratify.
