J Washington, Nov. 12.?All the feathers of Alice Paul are ruffled. She is madder than a wet hen. She is indulging in, "I told you so's," but: such remarks do not limit her expres- i sion. This is what it is about: In the; next congress there will sit no wo- \ man. There will be the shade of Jean-| nette Rankin and Alice Robertson, and a remembrance of Mrs. Huck.But i in fact, there will be no woman. ? 3: There were many women cauui-j dates. But all of them went by the board. Mrs. Huck in Illinois ran for a short term left vacant by her father, and a long term. A man wanted the long term and got it. She was tgiven the short term. After that she goes out. Miss Paul, the peppery chairman of the National Woman's party, de* clares the elimination of women as members of congress was due to the fact that women will not vote for women. It is indicated that women like men vote for the candidates of their choice, but Miss Paul says. "No. Woman will not vote for women." She has always held to that idea. It was because of that idea that she insisted as soon as women secured the ballot that women organize a .party separate and distinct from nAwinnwoti'n s\y% Donii hlipan CiLUCi LUC L/CUiULiaiiV/ Ul it and support the nominees of that party. "Women should vote for women," she say9 today. "They must. Women should become the controlling class. They should not be satisfied with that which man does not want." She argues that if women would vote for women and men for men half the membership of congress, more perhaps, would be composed of women. If women would follow her ad'vice, she predicts a woman in the White House. But, under present conditions, she admits that a woman will never be president during the age of any one now living. While the attitude of Miss Paul is unmistakable, there seems to be a trace of satisfaction on the part of the militants as a rule that Miss Robertson was defeated in Oklahoma. Miss Robertson wa9 never a suffragette. She opposed equal suffrage. But when women had the right to vote, she offered for congress and was swept in on the Republican tide of 1920. In congress, she 9poke her mind freely about women in politics rather than in the home. She spoke sweetly of the fireside and of babies. She opposed some of the pet schemes the women wanted to put over. She made a man her secretary because the man knew Washington and she didn't. As result, she was never popular with the women, although no member of congress was more popular with the men. An so, when she went down in defeat last Tuesday, militants here shed no +rn "What a Country!" "I came to America 17 years ago, "with So cents in my Dublin breeches," recounts an Irishman of middle ago. telling of his adventures in this the land of his adoption. "I went to an uncle in Baltimore who was without chick or child and he srave me So a week and wanted to make me his heir. He died worth $7.000,000 years after. Had I stayed?but I wanted to see the country. I did, I saw Oklahoma when it was raw, new and young, but my feet itched. I soldiered for Uncle Sam and grew sundried at desert posts. There was an opportunity everywhere, but I wandered and weaved about, dodging the shower of gold that always is falling everywhere in America. I am an expert dodger, a vagabond and a born wastrel but I have not been able to dodge it all. Almost in spite of myself, I'll die in a clean bed of my own and under a roof of my own.

When efforts by penitentiary attendants to revive him failed, phy-j sicians were called in. They sub-! jeoted him to various tests, which convinced them. The State quotes penitentiary officials as saying that rhp coma was assumed. The prison er, who is scarcely above his major- j ity, is said to take food after it has! been placed in his mouth by attendants. A nurse remains with him constantly. Harmon and Jeffords are scheduled to be re-sentenced on November 27 to execution in the electric chair. Glenn Treece, who also was convicted of the Arnette murder, is serving a i life sentence in the penitentiary. arms and two eyes in his head. What a country, and there's never been anything like it." The romance of this Irishman's life?for it is nothing else to those who recognize romance when they see it, is but one of many many similar romances that have been lived under the sunny 9kies of this great land of opportunity. There's John D. PnoT.-ofollor who wprif tn work for $4 a week 77 years ago. He sat 011 a high stool and made entries in a ledger, just as thousands of clerks have done before and since.

The dear old lady pushed her spectacles up on her forehead, and put down with an indignant, sniff, the newspaper she had been reading. "These firemen must be a frivolous lot!" she remarked.
