TENNESSEE GIVES VOTE
 TO AMERICAN WOMEN
Suffrage Wins by Slender Margin of Two Majority-Was 36th
 State to Eatify.

Nashville, Tenn, Aug. 19.-Ten- nessee today became the Beth state to ratify the Susan E. Anthony federal suffrage amendment. The constitu- tive in time for 17,000,000 women of the country to vote in the presidential election in November, unless the low CT house of the Tennessee assembly rescinds it's action of today in adopt ing the ratification resolution 49 to AZ.
 Speaker Walker, leader of the antisuffragists, put opponents in a position to demand reconsideration by changing his vote from nay to aye and moving to reconsider. The house adjourned until 10 o'clock to- morrow, when the speakers motion will have the right-of-way. Suf- frage and anti-suffrage forces tight ened their lines this afternoon for the final fight and both sides were however, had the advantage of to- days victory and expressed confi- dence that Speaker Walkers mo- tion would be voted down tomor- TOW. The next step In ratification claiming the victory. Suifragists, then would be the certifying of the action of the Tennessee assembly to the secretary of state of the United States who, upon it's receipt, would issue a proclamation declaring the amendment ratified.
 1 The Tennessee senate ratified the amendment last Friday by vote of 25 to 4.
 Suffrage leaders declare they vii not slacken their efforts, as they de- sire to have at least one other state ratify before the November cleo tions, as they expect a fight to be made against Tennessees action be- cause of the clause ill the state con stitution which prohibits any assem- ! bly, from acting on an amendment not submitted before the members were elected. Both United States Solicitor General of Tennessee have declared this clause to be unconsti- tutional in the light of the recent decision of the supreme court in the Ohio referendum case.
 The suffragists won the prelimi- nary victory in the house today when motion to table the ratifica- tion resolution was lost on tie vote, AS to AS. This would have put over action until 1921. Some of those keeping tally of the votes recorded the vote on this motion as 49 to AZ in favor, and first reports 1 were that suffrage had lost The official tally showed a tie vote, how ever, and to make assurance doubly sure, a second roll call was ordered The vote again was recorded as AS to AS and the motion to table was declared lost.

THE BAMKNEAp HIGHWAY
 WILL COME THIS WAY
Convoy Officer Stated That This Is By Far the Most Prac-
 t cal Route.
Frnm Mineral Springs Vim

From Nlnefdl springs VIII
 In conversation with P. B. Estes, of Nashville, one of the officers in charge of the government convoy which re- cently passed through this section, on it's trip from Washington City to Los question in his mind that the Bank head National Highway will be rout- ed from Hot Springs to Texarkana via Glenwood, Murfreesboro, Nashville, Mineral Springs and Ben Lomond.
 This officer state that this is by far the most practical route, and that no one who cared for his reputation along such lines would recommend any other route, if he was as thor oughly advised of the topography of this country as his party had become. This entire section was thoroughly secuted iii advance of the convoy, and the officials in charge of the trip are probably better advised of the situation than people who reside Tn this section.
 The officer above quoted stated that a much better all-year highway could be built through this way than along the Iron Mountain railroad, and at a much lower cost, and that this route already has splendid new bridge across Red river at Index, as against the probability of one never being built at Fulton.
 The reason the convoy did not come this way from Nashville was because of the new construction work on the highway from this point to Little Piver. and that fact that Index bridge was not ready for traffic.

URGING OFFICIALS TO
 IMPROVE INDEX ROAr
W. \. Mccartney Is Negotiating For An Early Conference Prior to
 Opening of Index Bridge.

Texarkana, Aug. 19.-Recogniasng the accruing benefit to Texarkana which will result with the opening of the Index bridge, probably in Septem- Der, and tbe desirability of placing the road in proper condition fit to at tract tourists and other travel, w. A.. Mccartney, chairman of the highway committee of the Chamber of Con- merce, yesterday took action looking to conference with Ogden highway officials, at which various phases of road improvement are to come up for thorough discussion
 The last legislature created the Og- den road district, authorizing system of road surfacing improvement. The road, however, is said to be in poor condition because little, if any, of this authorized improvement has been und- ertaken. With the date of the formal opening of the bridge now approach ing, patrons of the road, both at this and the other end, are anxious that something be done to make it attrac- tive to travel, which otherwise will be deterred.
 Efforts are being made also to gain the attendance of ". D. Owens, chair man of the Arkansas state highway commission, and, if the efforts of the highway committee are successful, a definite date will be shortly set for the conference, agreeable to both sides.
