UNSCRAM b. Ed

The Alabama contingent of the
house of representatives returned
from Alabama and last Tuesday with
81 members present, 66 being quo
rum, proceeded to unscramble the
ratification resolution tangle. A
motion was made to reconsider the
adoption of the resolution, which
was agreed to. All reference made
to the suffrage question during the
absence OF q quorum was ordered ex-
plunged from the Journal. Then a
motion to reject the resolution was
adopted by a vote of AZ to "a, with
20 members present and not voting.
Gov. Roberts Is In an awkward po-
sition. having already certified that
the house had adopted the resolution.
According to the record the house
has done NO such thing-and there

ROBERTS CERTIFICATE

Soon after Gov Roberts certified
to Secretary Colby that the Tennes
see legislature had ratified the sui
frage amendment Sptaker Walker
sent Mr.. Colby the following tele
gram:
Tennessee has not ratified nine
teenth amendment. Motion to recon
slider House vote was duly entered
on journal, and no quorum was pres
ent under constitution of Tenness e
on Aug. q, 1920, when motion to re-
consider was attempted to be acted
upon. Under decision of Judge Lur-
ton in 81 Tennessee reports, 1877, ef-
feet of motion to reconsider was to
nullify prior vote until said motion
was acted on by constitutional quo
rum of &c members. This has not
been done. Legislature acting as
parliamentary body under provision
Of Tennessee constitution, see HARE
VS.. Rice 2O4, United States 291 This
legislature has no power to act and
furthermore has not acted. The gov
ernor's certificate in effect leaves
these two questions up to you to de-
eide which you cannot lawfully do.
(Signed) seth WALKER,
Speaker of the Tennessee House of
Representatives"
Speaker Walker is unfit for the
position il he does not know wher
the House has legally acted upon any
pending question. Our guess is that
he does know.

Every hour of the night, 2 O'Clock,
3 o'clock, 5 o'clock, some delegate
would come knocking at my door at
the hotel" she continued, land say:
Two men have left. You'll have to
go out and get two more Republi-
cans"
The Times adds: Intimate stories
of the campaign methods used by the
fair sex down in Tennessee were told,
of how they took the men out to din
ner, ordered their cigars, and then
treated them to the movies after
wards in order to win their votes for
ratification"
We wonder how many votes the
women got by this plan; how many
members of the general assembly
sold out for a free show, a cigaret
and a midnight supper. Is it possible
any Of them were that cheap? Or
did the women have other and more
seducing wares to offer!
We would like to know whether a
homely "old hen" or beautiful
young chicken" went up into Sena-
tor Bill Matthews whiskers and got
his goat-vote, we mean.
Let us have more light on the sub
ject, sisters. In the meantime what
do you think of a woman who would
stay out all night with a member of
the Tennessee legislature? Cover.
nor Roberts should have list f
these she nightbirds-he may want
another stenographer.

Under no circumstances should

TRepubI,can A. p. Leased Wire]

MUSKOGEE Okla, May 3.-Fifty- one persons were killed and approxi- mately 100 injured by tornado which swept away Peggs, Okla. small town in Cherokee county, Sunday night ac- cording to reports sent here tonight by relief workers. Many of the injured are seriously hurt, the reports said.
 Relief parties searched all day in the mud and tangled wreckage for victims.
 The first trainload of injured. num- boring between 30 and 40, arrived at Muskogee early tonight.
 Wire communication with the storm swept area was impossible today.
 Members of rescue parties who re- turned here tonight with the injured told of difficulties encountered in To- eating and identifying the bodies. A deluge of rain accompanied the tor nado and when the first relief party found the village. it was a tangled mass of wreckage with pools of water stand ing everywhere and mud shoe-top deep.
 In some cases several bodies were found among the ruins of one build ing, indicating whole families had been wiped out. The bodies were covered with mud. They were removed and piled in hooks and corners left un- touched by the storm. to await iden- tification.
 In one ins tance a small frame build ing, uninhabited, was left standing in the heart of the town while brick structures surrounding were razed. Clothing was found on trees several miles from the path of the storm. A large gasoline barrel was found flat tened out and wrapped around the trunk of a tree.
 The area swept by the tornado was said by members of the rescue party to be about three miles long and a mile wide.

COCH|SE NUT TO PAY EXPENSE OF
 NEXT TRIAL, SAY
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel


 DOUGLAS, Ariz., May 3.-Robert N. French, county attorney of Cochise county, today reiterated his determina- tion to prosecute the so-called '-blan ket' warrant against approximately 150 residents of CochiSe county on the charge of Kidnapping, growing out of the Bisbee deportation of July 12, 1917. This announcement followed special meeting of the county board of super viSorS at Tombstone, the county seat, at which MT. French was warned that the board would not allow expenditures for support of nonresident witnesses and for support of families outside the state. MT. French declared, following the meeting, that he would proceed with the trial "even if he had to man. damuS every member of the Cochise county board of supervisors to force the payment of claims for witnesses and other expenses"
 A petition, purporting to be from the Cochise county non-partiSan feagne, was presented the board by O. A. Ash, railroad man. It requested that the trial of the ''Bisbee deporters'' proceed, regardless of expense. The resolution criticised Judge Samuel Pattee, who presided at the trial of Harry F. Wootton, acquitted by a jury of a kid naping charge Saturday at Tombstone. The petition recites that Judge Pattee, "by his rulings has defined questions of law that are dangerous and revolu- tionary and if permitted to stand un- challenged will remain a menace to the people of this country
 Chief among these rulings, the peti- ton said, was the one defining the law of necessity, which was the chief point at issue in the Wootton case
 "The second dangerous and revo- lutionary doctrine promulgated by Judge Pattee," the petition continues, was that any prospective juryman who believed that Kidnapping and re- porting were a crime was not eligible for duty in the case then being tried" The petition asks that "the prosecu tion of these cases be continued in or der that the law rulings of Judge Pat tee may be passed upon free from any of the technicalities that developed in the Wootton case' The resolution declared that by their ballots in 1918 the people of Cochise county gave a "clear mandate to the county attorney, the sheriff and the board of supervisors to proceed with the trials of the men responsible for the deportation"
