The feeling of uncertainty regarding the outcome of the suffrage ratification question here is greater today than at any time during tho present special session of the Legis lature.

The feeling of nssuraneo is especially em phasized at the anti headquarters. A fresh wagonlpad of signs was re ceived there today. When dlsplajed they covered tho lower portion of their building. As one of their strongest arguments they point to the placard bearing the following : "One woman out of ten wants suf frage. Do you want to force it on the other nluc?"

It is a source of wonder where nil the money comes from. Still I do not believe there has been anv concen trated moved on the part of the suffra gists or anti-Ruffragists in trying to cor rupt by bribery nny members of tho Legislature. "It is my firm belief, nnd I nra sure niv fellow-members of the Leglslnturu will bear me out, that ecry membor in actuated solely in the stand ho has taken to respect the wishes of a ma jority of the people of the state, as he sees It. and by the dictates of his own conscience." When Representative Llojd, who is opposed to suffrage ratification, arrived at the House this morning he found the following note on his desk: "Will give you n sednn Ford nuto mobiln if jou vote for suffrage."
