the direction of republican national
committeeman Emile Kuntz, will
stage a new campaign i'll this state,
through publicity and the organiza-
tion of the American Industrial and
Labor Protective League. an organi-
zation designed to show the benefits
of protective tariff.
Louisiana, it is vociferously claimed

argued, require protection.
Sugar, cotton, rice. timber-the big
four in Louisiana-ali require pro-

through the door of revenue needs.
Republicans say Louisiana will some
day be protective tariff state.

Woman Vote Shrinking.
Women in Virginia have expe-
rienced the novelty of voting in
few elections. and they appear TO be
satiated. Estimates recently made
show that there are 100000 who have
never taken the trouble to register
They have secured two places IN
the next Legislature, but they are IN
scattered districts-one in Nor1olk
city and one in Buchanan county
Other woman aspirants in the state
| went down to defeat. and in the
two cases cited the men voted Tor
the women in much larger number
than did the women.
There are 1900 registered ana
qualified voters in Richmond, and yc,
not more than 25 per cent of these
go to the polls. The men are paying
about as little attention to the right
to vote as are the women. save that
polls and vote. At least. that has
been the case hereabouts. and two
years ago they had colored woman

lature-including the road matter

politicians of both the bond and anti
bond forces. If the vote is close it
may mean that the bond forces Will
unite and compel former Senator G.
O'Conor Goolrick of Fredericksburg
to make the race in the primary. He
is the recognized leader of that ele-
ment, and though he went down in
defeat in the race for the senate it
was solely due TO his advocacy Of
the bond issue. He is considered one
OF the ablest men in the senate for
twenty-five years. On the other hand,
if the vote is decisive against bonds
the friends of Senator Harry +. Byrd

Chairman Adams of the republican

RICHMOND. Va, October 13.-With
the election for members of the legis-
lature just three weeks from next
Tuesday, there are coming reports
in that contest. There are fewer re-
publican and Independent candidates
than have been in the field In years
The reason is not known, save that
old party lines are ignored in the
great contest between roads and pay
ing for the roads as they are built.
This has been responsible for the
failure of the republicans to name
candidates in at leafs two instances.
uniting with the democrats and fight
ing the bond proposition. These are
two districts which have been and are
almost solidly opposed to following
any other plan than that of build
Ing and paying for the roads as they
are built
In the last few weeks the bond
forces have been perfecting their
organization and have been doing
much work in the line of making
speeches and seeking TO enlighten
the voters from their point or view
playing interest in the election.
Many of the bond people do not
hesitate to say that the chances
right now are against their being
successful, but they are hoping for
change OF sentiment
Opponents Active.
Opponents of the bond issue are
not losing much time, and they are
engaged in informing the voters of
the conditions and the situation as
II appears to them. They. too, are
making speeches, but there appears
to be more personal work than that
of resorting to the stump. The anti
bond forces say there is not the least
question of the defeat of the bono
issue by an enormous majority, their
estimates ranging from 10000 TO Co.
600. There is a desire on the part
of many that. whichever way the
election goes. the majority will be
such as to remove il as a public issue
for long time.
Cities Strong for Bonds.
There is apparently no question
that the majority of the voters in the
cities are strong for the bond issue.

Doctors who hurried to the spot
found Maneyrol terribly injured. He
was unconscious and died in a few

HARRISBURG. Pa. October 13.-Re-

trative policies have left little doubt
among people on Capitol Hill that if
encouragement comes from western
states Gov. Clifford Pinchot will seek
Pennsylvania national delegates more
actively than by expressing desire
TO have his state delegation honor
him in the national convention. The
governor is touring the state and
making speeches. which have been
attracting comment. while men left
in charge of matters at the state
capitol have been doing things cal
culated to impress the people who
set up dele gates. but not with sue
cess.
But while the governor is fighting

whole anthracite price structure

controlling factors of the republican

plans for any contingency. resolved
TO fight for delegates if necessary and
to sacrifice place holders if il comes

The reclassitication of the hundreds
Of state employees. projected as a big
economy move, went into effect with
a bang. but was not followed up. and
there have been so many complica
tions since that il lost much of its
effect. And when it was followed up
by a letter from the woman chief of
the welfare department that only
those on the governors side should
be employed, the value of the new
standards Of pay and duties was di-
minished as a talking point. Pinchot
has been. very interesting as a doer
of things on Capitol Hill. but when
he goes away matters drag.
With the republicans awaiting the
result of the November election and
the governor trying to get his own
state into tune with what he hears
from other commonwealths, there are
signs of Keystone state democrats
getting ready to contest not only for
delegates, but for state committee
