WILL BE DECIDED
IN THREE WEEKS
AS to Whether the Suffrage Amend
ment Will Pass the Senate

ment Will Pass the Senate
Washington, Jan. THE next
three weeks will decide the fate of the
suffrage amendment. Recognizing
this fact it's friends are again bring
ing it out of the ante rooms onto the
floor of the Senate.
The request of Senator Jones of
Washington, ranking republican mem
Der of the suffrage committee, for
unanimous consent to bring the
amendment up on the anniversary of
it's introduction and of its passage in
the lower house, Jan. 10, though de-
feated by the objection of Senator
Williams of Missouri, was significant
as the first move in what will probab-
ly prove a determined effort to have
the measure acted on Immediately af-
ter the Senate three-day recess.
If the amendment is not passed in
time to be submitted to the state
legislatures which meet this month
for what in the majority of cases are
biennial sessions ranging from 40 to
80 days, American women cannot be
enfranchised for two years.
Three of the nine votes won in the
Senate during the last year came as
the result of requests from state leg
islatures for favorable action by their
senators. Taking this hint, the ma
tional womans' party, of which Alice
Paul is chairman, through its state
branches, is conducting campaigns in
every state to secure the passage of
petitions by the legislatures asking
for the support of their own senators
for the amendment and it's immediate
submission.
Hope to Change TrammelPs Vote
. In Florida delegation of young
women, consisting of Misses Anita
Pollitzer, of Charleston, S. c.; Bertha
Miller, Washington, and Helen Hunt,
Jacksonville, were active during the
special session of the Florida legis-
lature hoping to secure resolution
asking the Florida senators to change
their stand on suffrage. They were
assured that Senator Trammell would
vote for suffrage if such resolution
were passed though they had no hope
that Senator Fletcher would change
his announced stand Failing in this
they secured the signatures of many
members to petition asking a favor
able vote on suffrage and Miss Pollit-
ger is now in the state seeing other
members who did not sign at Talla-
hassee. 1t is claimed they have a
majority of members on the petition.
If this be true it would not be
strange to see Senator Trammell's
vote changed.
The legislatures of Rhode Island,
New York, North Dakota, South Da-
kota, Arizona and Montana have
passed resolutions calling upon their
senators to vote for the amendment
and petitions asking similar action
have been signed by large proper
ton of the member of the legislatures
in Texas, Delaware, Virginia, New
Hampshire and Maryland, as well as
in Florida. In the present campaign
special effort is being made in New
Hampshire, where majority of the
members-elect of the legislature have
already signed a petition,' in Idaho,
where all political, labor and social
organizations are supporting the
amendment. in Tennessee, Nebraska
and Maine. From these campaigns it
is hoped that a change of mind will
be- brought about in Senators Moses,
Borah, Shields. Hitchcock and Hale.

CALLED ON THE
COMMISSIONERS
DIR. Bitch Submitted Some Advice
Regarding Roads to the Mem
bers of the Board

The board of county commissioners
met IN regular session tins morning.
A full board was present, and the new
members, Messrs. hogers, 1alton and
huIenens, were sworn In. 1t has
been quite wnlle since such a large
proportion of the board was made up
OF new members. Mir. Hutchens has
served before, but tins Is the first
term Of Messrs. Rogers and TaIton.
Both, however, are very well posted
on county affairs.
The board organized by electing
Mr.. Rogers chairman, after which
the regular business was taken up.
DR.. ). Ii. Bitch was present and
submitted the following paper:
Ocala, Fla, Jan. 7th, 1919
Honorable County Commissioners of
Marion County. Florida:
Gentlemen: / had an invitation
from the new members of yodr board
to be present at this meeting and
discuss with you any matters regard
ed as essential TO the county's well
fare in road building and taking care
of roads which have been surfaced.
As / view it now, one of the most
serious and important provisions con-
fronting our county legislators and
the people is that of taking care of
the roads which have been and are
now being built.
If some intelligent method is devils
ed for the upkeep of the roads. and
after being devised, is carried out,
@h l. e
good friend, Mr.. w. d. earn, in his
campaign outlined some practical
methods of keeping up these costly
roads, but they were not carried out.
1t will continue to be a poor busi-
ness if Marion county continues to
build and neglect to make some in
telligent and concerted effort to keep
the roads in repair. DeSoto county
leads in the matter of conducting
road building and repairing, particu-
larly as it applies to the utilization of
convict labor. Each of the three state
gangs in this county have permanent
homes for their unfortunates, and the
quarters are comfortable. A small
farm, and good one, is maintained
by them. The one at Wauchula, for
instance, / visited this week, and
their records show 200 bushels of
sweet potatoes, 80 gallons of syrup,
40 good porkers and right now the
best garden in Florida. and vegeta-
bles are provided the entire year. This
one camps inventory of road machin-
cry amounts to $4,000.
These camps have large trucks and
talk about road upkeep, they solve
the problem. In my visits to these
camps, it is common to find eight or
ten of the convicts, with two trucks
20 miles from heir permanent sta
tions, repairing roads, thereby Great
ing harmony and a satisfied taxpay-
ing people. All other organized
bodies act co-jointly, and why not the
county commissioners? My four
years experience in visiting all the
road camps operated by state road
force prompts me in urging you to
abandon the building of sand-cIay
roads, unless you use clay very spar
ingly, and then constantly apply sand
until the roads are made passable
after rains.

EMPIRE.

No sweeter love story was ever put upon the screen than The Gen tleman From Indiana" the excellen: Paramount picture with Dustin Far mum in the stellar role, which was presented a the Empire theatre yes terday, which will be repeated today. With dainty Winifred Kingston, the popular Eondon favorite, playing op- posite Mir. Farnum these two young people present the famous Booth Tarkington romance with a delicacy and charm that is idyllic.
 Their meeting, the thrilling mo- ment when a bullet from Whitecap in ambush carries away F'arnum ; hat, the old fashioned making in the Judge Briscoe home, and finally the touching reunion long afterward beside the Franklin hand press in Farnum's Indiana county seat news paper office, is delightful.
 The Gentleman From Indiana is a treat for anybody who has lived in a county seat town, and for city people who have never known the quiet thrill of Court house Square, presents one of the truest pictures Of country town life ever presente ] upon stage or screen. The remainder of the program was headed by Ruth Roland in The Tigers Trail" a ser ial story de luxe.
