NEAR EAST FUND STANDS.
Unaffected by Interchurch Sub

The statement that pledges made for

according to the Washington near east
relief committee. The committee mas
heard, its officers state. that those ask

pledges could consider as Cancelled pre-

Of the near east peoples because. in the

nor does the interchurch movement au-

DEMOCRATS To NAME
WOMEN ON COMMITTEE
Chairman Isaacs Believes They
Should be Given Equal Rep
resentation With Men.

In his call for meeting Of tho Demo-
cratic State Committee to be held Mt
Dover next Thursday Horny r. Isaacs,
chairman, says:
'~rhc calling Of this meeting is prompted
particularly by reason Of tho passage Of
the Suffrage Amendment, M a result Of
which the women of Delaware will be en-
titled to vote at the coming general cleo
tion. 1t is clear that our party cannot
effectively procure tho registration Of the
women who are entitled to vote and who
are inclined to the principles of democ-
rncy, thereby placing such women in
position to vote in November, unless an
organization is sot up among the women.
My personal idea, and the idea of most
Democrats with whom / have talked, is
that all our organizations should be dupli-
Gated in every detail. This means, of
course, that for every membcr of the
present State committee woman must
be set up who will be the associate of the
member who is now serving the district,
and insofar as members Of the State com
mittec have been elected at largo in the
counties, Just so many women at large
will have to be chosen. OF course, ] ap-
preciate the fact that the State committee
may be inclined to follow different course
but my own feeling is that this is virtually
the only course that can be followed.

Quite as Much Interest Is
Taken In N. O. Election
as in Our Local.
MIDNIGHT NEWS
SAYS McSHANE WINS
Excitement When Sanders
Is Reported 5000 In
Lead in N. 0.

Tuesdays election was quiet and
orderly. There was very little Dtt-
terness of feeling, and the general
results were quite freely predicted.
There seemed to be more interest in
the result of the New Orleans cleo
tion than in the local situation.
Quite a crowd gathered In the Office
of Clerk of Court Blossman and In
the Office of Sheriff Galatas. Tne
first news received announced Me-
Shane majorities, but no communi-
cation could be established with the
o. D. A. headquarters in New Or
leans. Wire returns occasionally
came in from the N. O. G. N. depot
and connection was occasionally had
with the New Orleans newspapers.
After II O'Clock reports became more
positive and authentic and when
the crowd dispersed it was general
ly conceded that the machine was
beaten.
Considerable excitement was caus-
ed by report that Sanders was Lead
ing Broussard by 5000 in New Or
leans. No one seemed inclined to
believe it, but the report became 30
insistant that many were tempted TO
believe that another of those won
derful political coups had been pull
ed off and that the machine had
buried it's grudge. Later returns
showed there was nothing In 1t.
The big majority given to Judge
Carter in Both Washington and st.
Tammany parishes shows that he
was al no time in danger Of defeat.
Full returns from the Twenty-Sixth
Judicial District washington and
st. Tammany) will be found on this
page.
Reports indicate that Broussard
has won for senator between eight
and niue thousand; Watson and Tay-
lor. for railroad commissioner, neck
and neck; Favrot elected to congress
by 80 votes.
McShane won in New ORLEANS b.
about 1900; MARI is elected district
attorney; LaBesque, civil sheriff;

RICEG EGROWINC

terest. The quality Of the rice
grown, the fact that flowing wells

growers is the Alexius Rice Corn
