Gov Thos. e. Kilby, Of Alabama, is
expected to decide during the next

Constitutional lawyers differ in their
opinion of the present laws. Many

the Tennessee legislature today, while
others maintain that the bars would
be lowered to all females in the state
Gov. Kilby has been out of the state

GREAT CROWD TO DO HONOR TO
NOTED ORGANIZATION OF
COUNTY.
BIG BASKET DINNER SPREAD
interesting History Of The Church
Given by Squire Matthews and Ap-
propriate Address are made by
Number Of Well Known Speakers.

With appropriate exercises and in
the presence Of hundreds of people,
gathered from all over the county
the centennial of the organization
of Hopewell Associated Reform
Presbyterian church was DULY cele
bratef at that historic church on
Wednesday. 1t was an inspiring oc-
casion and one filled with hallowed
memories for scores of the older men
and women who had been baptized
and raised in this church Many who
has moved away from the community
and even from the state, some of
them joining other denominations,
were present to pay their tribute of
respect to the old mother church
that had first guided their footsteps
in the path "by ancient worthless
trOd,"
This church founded in 1920 by the
hardy pioneers who helped to fill the
forest and settle that section of the
county has had splendid career. 1t
has contributed notably to the fine
citizenship that has made the COM
munity noted everywhere for its
sterling qualities and it's intense pa
trotism. Many of the present mem
bers of the descendants of the families
that first gathered in rude log house
to found the church
The big auditorium of the church
was filed to its capacity and there
were many present who did not at
tempt to get into the building, when
the services were opened with a splen-
did address of welcome by the pas
tor, Rev. w. T. Simpson, who acted
as the master of ceremonies.
A very interesting and carefully
complied paper giving the organize
ticn and history of the church was
read by Squire Albert r. Matthews,
clerk of session In the 100 years of
history of the church there have been
nine regular pastors, Rev, ] H. Peo-
pies serving longest, for period of
twenty two years.
The principal address of the morn
ing services was made by Rev. John
r. Edwards, of Fayetteville, who
spoke on What the Associated Re,

While a doctrinal address it was at
the same time a plea for Christian
fellowship and for an adherence to

SUFFRAGE VOTE
AT NASHVILLE
CAUSES GLOOM
MERE MEN WHO INQUIRED FOR
THE NEWS GENERALLY Ex-
PRESSED DISAPPOINTMENT.
WOMEN ARE VERY INDIFFERENT
Miss Carolyn Williams, one of the
Leaders in the Movement In This
Section, Expresses Intense Gratif-
Cation at the Result

So far as one could Judge by the ex.
plessions heard from mere men, who
inquired at The Herald office Wednes-
day for the news from Nashville the
ratification of the federal suffrage
amendment did not bring any great
JOY to the people heroabouts. General
regret was expressed, although every
one agreed that suffrage was inevita-
ble They based their opposition to
the action of the legislature on the en-
dorsement of the German plan of MAX
ing a scrap of paper" of the state
constitution. ReW Hays
and Russell and Senator Clarke were
highly commended for their firm stand
on the constitution and their oaths.
The women as general rule took
little or no interest in the issue. This
was especially true of women in the
country. Not a single inquiry, so far
as could be ascertained, has come to
The Herald Office from woman out
side of Columbia for the news about
the fight at Nashville since it com
menced. Scores Of women interview
cd on the subject at country gather
ings in the county lately by represen-
tatives of The Herald either express
ed indifference or frankly stated that
they did not want the ballot It is
safe to say that majority of the men
OF the county are against it, although
there are great many more men for
suffrage than there are women. 1t is
a frequent thing to hear a man state
that he is for suffrage but that his
wife is against it.
Miss Carolyn Williams. one of the
original advocates of equal suffrage
in Columbia and an officer of the state
organization, expressed intense graft
iiCation over the result when inform
cd of the action of the house on Wed
nesday. Miss Williams has been one
of the most ardent supporters of
equal suffrage for long time and the
news from Nashville, she felt. was
the happy elimination of the long
struggle.
Now will the women vote? That Is
the subject of most of the discussion.
Not unless tremendous pressure is
brought to bear upon them, is the usu-
al answer For no one can deny that
this great privilege of the ballot has
been literally forced upon the women
of Maury county.

COST OF RIGHTS
OF WAY JACKSON
HIGHWAY SMALL
FROM INDICATIONS AT THIS TIME
ESTIMATE OF $4,000 IS GROSS
ExAGGERATloN.
LITTLE LITIGATION PROBABLE
Only Four or Five Suits at the Most
Expected to Follow the Opening Of
Magnificent Highway-Renefts OF
the Road.

II is evident that there has been
gross e&aGgeration in the talk about
damage suits aud claims for rights
oi way growing out OF the construc.
ttlon OF the state and federal highway
to Spring Hill. An investigation of
the situation shows that there is no
around for alarm and no reason to be-
llove that the county will be "over-
Whelmed' with damage suits to the
extent Of $4,000 as charged in the
county court by the opponents of the
highways of the county.
County Attorney Hugh Todd Shel-
ton is deyoting good deal of his
time to a settlement of these claims
and is generally successful. He has
already settled several without any
agreement to pay any money and he
expressed the hope this morning that
at the outside there would not be,
more than four suits against the coun-
ty. Some of these will involve only
the cost of new fencing for the rights
OF way, which is an inconsiderable
item.
Several claimants will it is conf
IDENTITY claimed, never press sher
claims after the road is completed
They will find that the advantages
from the road so far offset any claims
for damages that they will be more
tEan satisfied Several have agreed
to grant the rights of way and to leave
the question of any settlement open
until after the highway shall have
been finished
From best information obtainable
only few suits for condemnation
will have to be filed. One member Of
tie county court was so reckless that
he wanted to appropriate $4,000 to
pay the damages for rights of way
for the next quarter. There will have
to be decided change in the situa-
ton before anything like that sum
will be necessary.

BRIDGE Will. NOT
BE- CLOSED; half
TO REMAIN OPEN
ARRANGEMENT MADE WHEREBY
TRAFFIC TO AND FROM RIVER
SIDE WILL BE CARED FOR.
EFFORTS OF COUNTY ATTORNEY
Contractors Agree That But One Side
of the Structure viii Be Worked on
at Time and Tomato Crop viii
Therefore Be Saved.

AS a result of the activity of Coun-
ty Attorney Hugh Todd Shelton and
other officials of the city and county
the announcement that the bridge
over Duck river would be closed to
traffic has been withdrawn and the
bridge will remain open during the
period in which the repairs will be
made, it is stated today.
The Gould Construction Company,
which has the contract for the repairs
OIL the bridge, agreed that the original
plans would be changed and that the
bridge would be so repaired that traf,
ficswouldtbe continuous. Only one
side .of the bridge will be closed at a
time and the repairs made. After
one side has been completed the other
side win be repaired, The bridge is
not to be raised but new sils and
floors will be placed under it.
The announcement made through
The Herald that the bridge would be
closed to traffic brought CONSERVATION
rot only to the people of Riverside,
hut to those of the city. The business
interests of the suburb and the city
are so closely interviewer that one
can hardly live without communica-
ton with the other. A large portion
Of the meat that is daily eaten in Co
lumbia is prepared for market in the
slaughter houses of Riverside. In
addition there are large acreages of
tomatoes over the river that could not
be hauled to the canning factory and
marketed and would be total loss,
as they must be marketed whe nripe.
The closing of the bridge would
have stopped all of the school chill
dren in that section from school, 1t
would have made it impossible for the
great majority of the people to at.
tend church or Sunday school. As
soon as County Attorney Shelton and
other officials heard of the Intention
to close the bridge they got active
and after conference with road off
cials 1t was agreed by the lat
ter that My half of the bridge would
be closed at a time.
In agreeing to keep open one side
OF the bridge the construction compa
ny announced that it would post q
sign that the bridge was closed, but
that travel could go over it at the risk
of the traveller. This will be done to
protect the bridge contractors, al
though there will be really little risk
to those using the bridge.
