TEXAS GERMAN VOTE 8
IS HELD RESPON S|BLE
FOR SUFFRAGE DEFEAT

Dallas Texas, May 29.-lncomlng re-
turns are sufficient TO show the defeat
of woman suffrage at the polls last
Saturday, and the advocates of the
amendment concede its defeat. Dallas
leaders express the belief that the Ger
man vote lost the measure. Large
majorities against the amendment in
certain districts OF the state Were cited
by Mrs. Monte Boren Mahoney. presi-
dent Of the local suffragists. and Mrs.
L. b. RepperL former president as
proof of the contention.
Both Mrs, Rupert and Mrs. Mahoney
declared that while it was not the wish
of the suffragists to contest the election,
such u contest might develop If grave
Irregularities Were found on the face
of returns from districts in which the
alien vote predominated, They said
the coupling of the suffrage amendment
with the alien disflanchisement clause
said caused much opposition in sections
of the state where the foreign vote was
material factor.
"A glance at the returns from the
German centers, san Antonio, Freder.
icksburg. Seguin, Yorktown and other
cities and towns. where the vote was six
TO one against suffrage, is sufficient
TO make this point clear Mrs. Rep
pert said.
The result of the decision of the
Texas voters against women suffrage
simply delays the matter until the
passage of the federal suffrage amend
ment by congress and its subsequent
ratification by three-fourths of the
states" Mrs. Mahomey said. This
will doubtless take two more years, as
many of the legislatures will not be
in session during the year after the
adjournment of the present congress.
Women have worked 4 good many
years for the suffrage cause. Two
more years is a matter of little mo
ment to them at this stage of the
fight"
The defeat of suffrage amendment
can be attributed to the negro and for
eign vote. according to Judge Barry
Miller of Dallas. who expressed the opin-
lDll tllsll llc tIlILtuSillD tIduSe VI lIt
amendment, limiting voting privileges
in the state TO full fledged American
citizens, was largely responsible for
the opposition of the foreign vote in
the state.
THE people of Texas acted rather
foolishly," Judge Miller said. for there
are three reasons why the amendment
should have carried. One is that the
women of the state have the vote in
the democratic primaries in Texas, and
there is no chance whatever of this law
beng repealed or being declared uncon-
stitutional. Another reason is that the
federal amendment will give them the
vote and it is certain that it will be
ratified in Texas from previous indi
cations. The last reason and most i'm
portant of all, is that the women of
Texas We're entitled to enfranchisement
What they have done to justify their
being given the vote has been told too
often for me TO repeat"

Washington, May 2g.-presidcnt Car
rama has been notified 10y the Ameri.
can government that permission for the
passage of Mexican troops through
American territory will be withheld for
the present. Mexico had asked to be
permitted to move 1000 men from Aqua
| Prieta to Juarez, FOR operation against
! Francisco Villas forces.
1t was said today officially that the
decision of the government was based
upon the belief that the force which it
was proposed to move through Arizona,
| New Mexico and Texas would not be
able to furnish protection to American
citizens in Northern Mexico because the
revolutionists had cut the road between
Juarcz and Chihuahua.
1t was made clear at the state de
| partment, however, that in the event
| President Carranza could show that
| there was greater necessity for the pres
ence of the force of 1000 men immcdi'
ately south of the border at Juare2 than
at Aqua prieta in the territory We're
| the Yaqui Indians are becoming trou'
blesome, the position of the United
| States government might be altered.
Governor Hobby of Texas has noti
fled the state department that he will
offer no objection to the passage of the
| troops through Texas provided guar
antees for protection of Americans in
| Northern Mexico can be obtained. Pro
tests, however, are understood to have
reached the state department from a
number of sources, including senators
| from the border states, the basis being
! that the movement of the Mexican
! troops might result in another raid sim
| liar to thaton Columbus, New Mexico,
after Mexican troops had passed
through the United states several years
ago The situation in northern Mexico
was described as somewhat delicate.
J villa has become advised of CarranZas S
request and it is believed he is waiting
with sufficient forces to make negligible
any effort on the part of federal troops
to go to the relief of chihuahua City.

reason why if the law permits

reason why if the law permits
the sale of pari mutuals upon the
race courses, why it should not
permit poker games or faro banks
Gambling is gambling whether it
is on cards or race horses. The
statue on gambling defines it as
a game of chance in which money
or any other thing of value is won
or lost. We think the general
definition of gambling applies as
much to betting on races as it
does in betting on a hand in a
game of poker. There is little
judgment in both, but at best,
each is a game of chance.
The News is opposed to all
kinds of games of chance in
which money is won or lost, and
for that reason we are just as
much opposed to race course
gambling as we are to card gam
ling or dice throwing. A person
who will play the races will soon
play cards or throw dice. or in
dulge in other forms of gambling
and we do not think the Legisla-
ture should legalize one and
penalize the other.
Race course gambling under
the sanction of the law is the
most demoralizing and corruptiDg
influence in Kentucky to- day.
Only In Kentucky and Maryland
is it permitted and protected by

There will be at Frankfort q

being part of the enormous
profits made by the race track
owners. But we do not think the
majority of the members of the
Legislature, can be either bought
or cajoed into voting against the
public sentiment of Kentucky,
which is dead against gambling
being protected by law.
