Nashville, Aug. 20.-Suffrage leaders
tonight regarded any attempt of the
opposition force of the lower house of
the legislature to reconsider it's action
ratifying the suffrage amendment as
hopeless and leaders claimed tonight
that tomorrow night will see the last
obstacle to certification Of the measure
to the state department swept away !.
The time limit for Walkers motion to
reconsider expired today. gbut ssuffra
gists have planned to settle 1t for good
by an attempt to bring up the motion
to reconsider tomorrow and table 1t.
The Tennessee house today adjourn
ed until 10 o'clock tomorrow morning
without an attempt of the anti-suf- :
fragists 20 force reconsideration The
motion was offered by suffrage lead
er and carried by an overwhelming
viva voce vote. -
Failure of Speaker Walker to move
reconsideration was taken as an indi-
cation that the opposition had not Sc
cured enough pledges to rescind it's
action in ratifying the amendment.
AS the house adjourned, hundreds of
suffragists Joined in singing 'My
Country, Tis OF Thee" fairly shouting
the words sweet land of liberty"
The air was repeated over and over.
They regarded the victory as beyond
question.
An attempt by the opposition to
adjourn until Monday was voted down
by the suffragists, 49 to AZ. the same
majority polled Wednesday on ratifi-
cation. 1t was apparent that the suf-
frage ranks had held steadfast for
two days against the onslaughts of the
opposition in their attempt to win
additional strength at the expense Of
their antagonists.
The suffragists are expected to move
tomorrow that ratification be recon-
sidered. A motion to table the pre-
vious motion would follow and if
adopted other parliamentary tactics
to reconsider would be impossible.

REPUBLICANS OBJECT TO POST
P0NEMENT OF BONUS LEG
lSLATl0M.

More than forty Republican mem
bers of the House of Representa-
tives have protested against the pro
posed postponment until the next
Congress Of Legislation awarding
bonuses to soldiers. Twenty-Five Of
these forty met yesterday and ap-
pointed subcommittee to confer
with the Steering Committee, This
subcommittee was instructed to in
form the Republican leaders that un
less the Steering Committee rescind
ed its action and agreed to support
bonus legislation in this session d
call for u census would be issued.
The meeting of the Republicans de
cided also that, as there were half
u dozen plans to award the soldiers
in bonds and lands, the best way
to approach the subject was to
freer all the bills to the Ways and
Means Committee to report u COM
prehensive measure. It was esti
mated that the bonuses would cost
about billion dollars.

AGE OF THE AMENDMENT

As n result of action decided up

in tho Presidential election.
Word was received at the conven
tion from Oklahoma to the effect
that n special session Of the Okla
homa Legislature would be called
February 23rd to consider ratifica-
tion Of the amendment.
Special attention was directed by
the convention to the situation in
the state Of Washington, the only
equal suffrage State in which no
move has been made to call spec
ial session. Under instructions
from the meeting Mrs Carrie Chap
man Gait. President of the Associa-
tion, sent the following telegram TO
the Governor of Washington.
Washington is now the only en-

RAILROAD WAGE QUESTION
ADJOURNED

The decision Of the railroad men
TO postpone further wage negitia-
tions until after the roads have
been returned to their owners is
wise. Differences then may be tax
Ell up and adjusted with those who
are to be responsible for the opera
ton Of the transportation industry
in the future, and wssre adjustments
will be made with grester accuracy
and more with view to>permancy
than is possible in dealing with. the
government ut this time Wages
and other conditions of employment
will be settled in view of the new law
and with an eye to the expansion
that ought TO follow the termination
of government management. When
labor relations of cordial co-opera-
tion with management are brought
about, and such result is possible,
the roads will be in position to do
some Of the things that are expect
ed from them. But the recovery is
not going to be immediate, and the
wage question is the most pressing
Of the managers problems Oma-

THE COUNTY FAIR

Attention is called to notice pub
lished i'll another column of the an
nual meeting Of the County Fair As
sociation.
The County Fair is a matter
which should secure the earnest sup
port and help of every one who is
interested in County affairs.
The farmers of the county should
take an active part in the prelimin-
AIRY steps necessary in preparing for
the best fair held in the county.
The Association receives support
from the funds Of the county and is
not u local institution but its con-
duct and management should be in
the hands Of men from diffenent' sec
tions of the county.
We hope to see a large attendance
and a real interest taken in the com
ing meeting and board of directors
and other officers chosen who will
give us the biggest fair yet held.

SECRETARY LANS|NG'S RETIREMENT

free from the feeling that Secre-
tary Lansing's action in thus at
tempting to bridge over the hiatus
occasioned by the Presidents dis
ability merited gratitude rather than
bitter resentment from the Presi-
dent, for it may well be that, if
there had been a complete suspen-
sion of Cabinet meetings during the
long period of the Presidents ILL
ness, the feeling which many have
had that President Wilson was suf
fering from a Constitutional disa-
bility which incapacitated him for
his office might have become so
strong and general throughout the
country as to have caused the Vice
President to assume the duties of
the office and thus necessitate a
legal determination of the matter in
the event of any contest on the Pres
.ident's behalf. gr-
In view of the diagnosis of the
Presidents case as recently given
out by DR.. Young of John Hopkins
University, one of the Presidents s
physicians, it would seem that a
competent tribunal might possible
have found upon investigation of
the situation few weeks ago, that
the Presidents disability was such
as to call for the assumption Of the
office by the Vice President, and il
therefore does not require very
violent stretch of the imagination
to see in Secretary Lansing's effort
to continue the Cabinet meetings
and in consequent prevention of pub
lie uneasiness on account of the
interruption Of Executive functions
the avoidance of an ordeal which
would ut least have been very en-
barrassing to the President, and
which might conceivably have re-
suited in his being displaced by tn,
Vice President.

rooms have been secured for the
use Of Fred Corroll' divisional dir.

sary because of the deer

there been 30 much interest shown

PLAN TO DEFER LOAN INTER-

II is reported from Washington
that Treasury officials favor hav-

500,000,000 loans to foreign govern
ments deferred for three years aud
then foregoing interest OH the de-
ferred interest, amounting 10 more
than sl,000,000000 over an eigh-
teen year period. This plan, tenta
lively agreed upon, was outlined to
the Ways and Mems Committee yes.
terday by Norman Davis, Assistant
Secretary Of the Treasury in charge
OF foreign loans.
While the Ways nnd Means Com.
mittee has not made known its pos
i,ion on the Treasury plan, there
seems to be much opposition. Il
is recognized by the leading mem
bers Of the Committee that the Uni.
ted States cannot afford 10 be mcr-
ccnnry and should DO lcnicnt. Those
opposing foregoing the interest say
that the United States is paying L.
900 per cent, more taxes thnn before
the war England about 800 per
cent; and France 60 per cent. They
kcntcnd that II the interest in not
paid ON the interest Il will mean
just that much extra burden ON the
American taxpayer, who IL carrying

The manner in which Secretary
of State Lansing has just been re-
tired by President Wilson is, to say
the least, unfortunate.
For more than year there have
been indications that the relations
between the President and the Sec
retary of State were not cordial and
it would not have been surprising
if at any time during this period
there had come the announcement
in the usual polite phraseology
which really deceiyes no one but
which often serves to avoid undue
embarrassment" that sin order to
devote his attention to pressing per
sonal affairs" the Secretary of
State had resigned.
The President is, Of course, al
ways at liberty to eliminate from
his cabinet any one who is not en-
tirely in accord with him, or who
for any reason becomes persona
non grata, and consequently there
can be no serious criticism Of the
fact that Secretary Lansing has
been retired, but it would seem that
the President might as well have
based his action on some other
grounds than the charge that Mr.
Lansing, by holding informal confer
ences with the members of the Cab
met during the Presidents prolong-
ed illness, had attempted to usurp
the prerogatives of the President.
Even if the Secretary Of State
had been Immediately in line for the
Presidency the charge would have
been manifestly uncalled for but
the fact that the Vice-President oc-
cupied that position makes the i'm
putation that Mr. Lansing was seek
ing to supersede the President de-
cidedly absurd.
Indeed, this action of the Presi-
dent leaves ones mind not entirely
