OUR WOMEN TO VOTE.

The women of Henry county have
been handed the vote on silver
platter. When the next election oc'
ours, which will probably be the
presidential election of 1920, be-
cause the city elections have just
recently been held, the women of the
county along with all the other coun-
ties of the state, have the right Of
equal suffrage.
At no time has there been suf-
frage league or an association in the
town, though there have been several
slight attempts to organize one. The
ladies have seemed content to let the
men do the family voting. But due
to the arduous efforts of their sisters
in other counties, the privilege to
vote has been presented them by the
august state fathers.
That they are required to pay poll
tax, is of course small matter and
surely none of the fair sex will fail
to cast ballot because Of it.
Dear Ladies, you have our best
wishes. May you enjoy the ballot
and use it wisely. May your posses
sion Of same cleanse, uplift, ant
strengthen it.
And, may we suggest, that wher
in doubt about which candidate fol
whom to yote--why, cast the same
ballot as brother, father, husband
and wen all live happily ever at
ter.

THE POSTMASTER GENERAL

Attacks are being heaped upon
Postmaster General Burleson. Fail
ure Of the Postal service, the tele-
graph service, and the telephone SER
vice under his direction and supervis-
ion, to measure up to the standard
demanded by current and revising
methods of business, together with
narrowness, hard-headedness, and
spitefulness seems to be Mr.. Burle-
sons trouble.
He charges that some of the news
papers and periodicals are trying to
"get his head" and declares that a
subsidy of several million dollars ex-
lists in his department for the bene-
fit of publishers. His vision thus
fails ito go back to the origin of such
so called Subsidy" wherein his very
department was created for the ben
eft of the people Of the nation.
Under Mr.. Burleson the telegraph
and telephone service has become de-
moralized, the condition even reach
ing to the non-executive employees.
And, likewise, the postal service has
deprecated. This has been eviden-
cd not only locally, but generally all
over the country. He has antagoni-
zed organized labor, and thus is not
in keeping with the spirit of the
times.
Old time methods will not work
any longer; it is rule applicable in
most every line of business, federal

NOW FOR A TRAIN.

Much interest is being manifested
in Paris this wesk, following consid-
cradle platform" or "switch shan
ty" talk about extending the Mem
phis-Paris accommodation train thro
to Bowling Green connecting the
main line through passenger train
No. 6 at the latter point.
1t is recalled a petition was circu-
lated here just before the war chilled
all extension of passenger train SER
vice, and was forwarded to the state
railroad commissioners nice a pig
con hole as could have been found
for it during the war at least. This
petition recited the fact that follow
ing the midnight train north on the
L. & NJ there was no passenger ac-
commodations out of Paris north
bound until five o'clock the next af-
ternoon, lapse of II hours, and it
was alleged that this was an unrea-
sonable length of time for north
bound passengers to have to wait,
and further that the present service
was not sufficient to meet the de-
mands upon the railroad as COM
mon carrier, in the sense common
carrier should serve the public.
The same cond itions continue to
exist, only the de.,.and now is great
err than ever for an additional train
northbound due to the extensively
increased travel
1t seems the rumors now afoat "a
bout extending the Memphis ari:
train to Bowling Green have origin
in a desire of the train and engine
men on the road for shorter hours on
duty, as it is said the present round
trip on the south end and the round
trip made by the Bowling Green to
Erin train is too long for one crew
1t is also possible the pay is now in
excess of the maximum fixed by the
brotherhoods for individual employ
es. At least, the men are interested
and it is good time for the public
which would reap the benefit from
an additional train northbound, to
also get interested
In any event, if there is any desire
or prospects for an early morning
train north out of Paris, returning
in the afternoon, the time is oppor-
tune for launching the movement
