Like the hunter who finds a lost trail,
And / wish that the one whom our blindness

The greatest injustice of all
Could be at the gates, like an old friend that

Little praises unspoken little promises broken,

Said To Be the Sign of a Demo-

in Cloverport at least. on this fair

1t seemed as if every automobile III
town was put in use. There were lot
of free rides and many made happy
for atime.
There was heavy polling of votes
at the poles. 1t is estimated 1000 votes
were cast. the largest number ever
voted here. Particularly did the wo-
men come out both in white and col
ored races. 1t was a new epoch in
their lives, the beginning OF a new
day when they could thoroughly ex-
ercise their own rights and indepen-
dence of thought So they faced It,
leaving household duties behind and
many got out early in the day.
In the Fourth precinct the bal
lots almost gave out before the poles
closed. Only a few OF the women OF
rural routes came in to vote but the
streets were filled with men
At each precinct the women OF
both parties took turn about in stand
ing outside the polls and gave the wo-
men instructions on voting.
There were deputy policemen APP

one. and there was no contention or
