Women Refuse to Vote For Women. 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

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

land of his adoption. "I went to an
uncle in Baltimore who was without

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. It's the

When efforts by penitentiary attendants
to revive him failed, phy-j

convinced them. The State quotes
penitentiary officials as saying that

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.

The dear old lady pushed her

put down with an indignant, sniff, the
newspaper she had been reading.
"These firemen must be a frivolous

asked her grandson.
