SUFFRAGE IS
PASSED;NOW
Congress 4o-Year Fight
Ended by Senate Ap-
prova1 of Measure.

Washington, June 5.-With the
fight in congress ended after near
ly 40 years of effort. advocates Of
woman suffrage today turned their
attention to the various legisla-
lures, three-fourths of which must
ratify the constitutional amend
ment before the victory can be
won.
The final victory in the senate
came late yesterday when the
house resolution was passed, Sc to
25, or two more in favor than was
necessary.
VIII States Ratify7
Although supporters of the meas
ure are confident of final success,
there is a division of opinion
among leaders as to whether the
ratification by the states of the
proposed amendment can be secur-
ed in time for the women all over
the country to vote in the next
presidential election. Few state
legislatures are now in session and
many will not hold sessions until
next year.
Because of pressing reconstruc-
tion problems, however, specia!
legislative sessions are expected to
be called in number of these
states and the suffrage amendment
will be permitted.
Chief opposition to ratification
is expected to come from the south
ern states. because of the entailed
enfranchisement of negro women
Senator Gay of Louisiana, in op-
posing ttlezr resolution yesterday,
predicted that 13 states would re-
fuse to ratify the amendment, thus
causing its defeat.
Illinois to Hurry Approval.
Springfield. ILL.,, June 5.-A reso-
luton seeking to put Illinois on
record as ratifying the federal suf-
frage amendment was introduced
by Senator Cornell, Republican of
Chicago. The resolution went over
for one day under the rules after
number of senators that official no
tification of the passage of the
amendment by congress had not
yet been received.
Will Not Call Extra Session.
Hartford, Conn, June 5-Gov-
eTnor Marsus Holcomb does not ex-
pect to call a special session of the
Connecticut legislature to act upon

ernor said last night he knew of

HUN REPUBLIC
ON RHINE HELD
ACT OF FRANCE
Berlin Press Charges
Move is Fostered By
French Money.

Berlin, Wednesday, June A.
(By the Associated Press. Tho
French have a propaganda fund
amounting to 10000, 900 francs with
which to further the movement for
the establishment Of the Rhennish
republic, declares the Karlsruhe
correspondent of the Lokal AnZei-
ger. This sum, he says, is being
used principally in the Rhineland
and Palatinate, and it is being
partly distributed to those favor
ing an Independent republic az
Landau, Mayence, Cologne and
Wiesbaden, who, without doubt,
have been bribed.
DR.. Dorten, who was named on
June 1 as president of the new re-
public, has issued two DEGREES to
workers. and ''to officials of the
Rhennish republic" is is said. The
correspondent states that all the
political parties except the Cent
rists. have united in protesting to
the French against any violation
of their right to self-determination
and demanding the suppression
and expulsion of the disturbers of
the peace.
Mangin in Proclamation.
A proclamation by General Man
gin, commander of the French army
of occupation at Mayence, forbid
ding strikes against the Rhennish
republic and threatening leaders of
any such movements with expul-
sion is published in the Frankfort
Gazette
The Rhinelanders have been dis
cussing the interests of their faith
erland for the past six months with
out disturbing public order" the
proclamation says, but now the
German government threatens them
with Imprisonment They have
created a republic within the Ger
man empire and have sought the
right of election, in which they will
have complete freedom. There is
nothing in their procedure which
might occasion protests or strikes
which disturb order and economic
life" --=~s-
FOch and Clemenceau Approve.
Mannheim, Wednesday, June f.
-(By the Associated Press).-
When the project of the Rhennish
republic was first broached, Mar
shall Foch, commander in chief of
the allied armies, was approached
through army Of occupation officers
and asked whether the Rhineland-
ers could work for a republic with
out the risk of being disciplined by
Germany, according to the Neu Ba-
den Landes Zeitung. The newspa-
per states that Marshal Foch and
Premier Clemenceau of France con-
ferred on the subject and sent a
reply to the Rhinelanders that the
German government would never
again have anything to do with the
left bank of the Rhine and hence
the propagandists could not be pun
ished."
France Promises HelpR
1t is further suggested that
France will help the new republic
economically so as to tighten the
financial indemnity chargeable to
the Palatinate. Marshal Foch has
notified the centrist members of the
national assembly, according to the
newspaper that he would relieve
their electors from the necessity OF
paying indemnity.

SWAT THE MAsHER.

1t isn't hard to believe that the
Almighty made man out of mud
and mighty nasty mud at that-when
we see one of those ours who stand
on the street corners or hang around
public places where there are oppor-
tunities to make eyes" at women.
You know the ogler; we all know
him. He isn't SO common IN town
the size of Greeneville as he is in
the larger ones. But even here we
have few specimens of this descend
ant of the jackaSS. He is short
sport at best, and is always looking
for little free entertainment at the
expense Of some girl.
Not long since, on the train, we
watched one of these chcap-skate
chasers. A trim little figure with
new hat boarded the car just ahead
of him and he took seat directly
across the aisle so that he could ogle
her at close range. We huddled down
behind newspaper short distance
away to watch.
The little lady was plainly an
noyed as the big boob kept smiling
at her and did everything he could
think of to break down the barrier
that her womanly modesty put forth.
He opened the window, then leaned
over and inquired if the draft both
cred her. He offered her his paper,
md while her refusal was curt, it was
every bit "the lady," and any man
with the instinct of louise or even
the slightest essence Of the gentle
man in his makeup would have stop
ned just long enough to apologize
for his existence o. earth and then
skunk away in the dark. But not our
ogler. He kept right at the game
and for the forty minutes we re-
manned on the train he worked over
time trying to get into the good
graces of the lady across the aisle
and was on the job when we left.
But this is only an incident; we
sec these oglers every little while.
The woman who has to go alone
in public places is especially subject
cd to continuous annoyance from
would-be Washers if she happens to
he passably good looking.
Any man may admire pretty girl
and there isn't any objection to hon
est admiration. But when cheap
dude hangs around ogling at every
woman that chances along, he should
be given a swift kick between the
hotel and the depot.
And, boys, listen. The girl that
IAN be picked up that way isn't worth
knowing, anyhow.

WHY -?

It happened last winter in store
here in our 'town-the town we have
boosted as being the finest town in
the country in which to raise chill
dren.
She was dear, quaint little thing.
and had wandered away from her
mother to investigate more thor
oughly muff a lady was carrying.
One little hand stroked the fur so
softly and the smile on her face deep
ened, showing a dimple in her cheek
Suddenly the fur was jerked away
with a muttered something about
"meddlesome kids and careless moth
ers." The baby didn't understand
the meaning of the words, but her
feelings had been hurt, and she
shrank back, lips quivering, and even
mothers arms around her couldn't
keep the tears back.

Talking To A Man Hunting A Job.

Talking To A Man Hunting A Job.
Mr.. Employer, how do you treat
the men who come to you for jobs?
Are you gruff, discourteous, and
overbearing.
The applicant can not know how
many come to you every day and
cannot realize any excuse for your
incivility.
And there is no excuse, for it is
honorable for men to sell his SER
vices, Just as honorable as it is for
you to try to sell your wares.
You cannot conduct your business
without help.
You cannot make a great success
without asking people to buy your
product.
You think courtesy should be
shown your travelling men, for in
stance, and you do not see any rea-
son for being civil to the men look
ing for work.
One is selling services, the other is
selling products.
One is necessary to the other.
You don't want to pay taxes to
take care of the men out of employ
ment.
You do not want to have to give
up your business because no one will
look at your goods.
There is a direct relation between
the two, which the one at the top
should be the first to perceive and
act wisely by cultivating the &C.
quaintance of those who help from
each end.

YOU'RE JUST AS GOOD AS THE
OTHER FELLOW.

Why should you be afraid to at
tempt anything within human accom-.
plishment if it lies along the line Of
your experience in kind?
The first thing to get rid Of is
the doubt Of your ability.
How can you expect others to re.
spect you for proficiency when you
are distressing yourself and your ca
pacity for getting there?
Suppose the other fellow does
know that you did not have all the
educational advantages you should
have enjoyed at the time most per-
sons got them.
That does not mea nthat you have
not more than made up for it since
and in way so practical that you
are really more assured of success.
You have trained your eyes and
your ears and your mind far more
acutely trying to solve what you
have not had made plain through
books.
Your observation powers and
method of concentration will carry
you along where the careless student
walks into pitfalls.
1t is sign of weakness, therefore,
20 resign yourself to a life of little
Importance because you know your
equipment was deficient
n youth when you possess just as
much gray matter as anybody.
1t stands to reason that if YOU
lon't make the effort you won't ad-
'ance, so be booster for your own
took by an organized attempt on
'our part to do big things we'll.

High Prices Gouge

LONDON, June 13.-Anxiety in
regard to the price of food and other
costs of living, which ceased to be
grave following the signing of the
armistice, has revived and is spread
ing all over England. Inquiries by
the Daily News show that while prac-
tically everything costs at least 100
percent more than n peace times,
many necessaries have advanced to
more than three times their former
prices. Profteering is said to be
rampant everywhere, even the sea-

Obsolete Names.

S~SsSeS AN&AaSes
A long time I've listened for names
l used to know; but girls no more are
cfristened with names of long ago.
When I was young the fellahs sang
lays, at cleaning hours, to stately
Isabellas, who listened in their bow
ers. OF Ruths some ten or twenty
you'd meet at every turn, and there
were James a-plenty, and Abigails to
burn. And there were Julias living
in every village street; Elizabeths
were giving soft looks to Mike and
Pete. Where are the blithe Matthias
who once were running free, and
Decreases and Hildas, whose forms /
long to see? The good old names are
banished, they fit no modern belle /;
the stately names have vanished with
those who wore them well. We Dor
row names from posies, when we
have kids to tag, so Violets and Ro-
sizes with twilight lovers lag. ]
named my daughter Daisy, and
thought I'd make hit, but when she's
fat and lazy will that cognomen fit?
My aunt, who's large and silly, is
jeered by other folk; her parents
named her Lilly, and so she is joke.
The good old names were stately, the
fine old names of yore; and regret
it greatly that they are used no more.
