Thev could not have attacked the Lodge reservations had (iovernor Cox indlcnted a willingness to accept them if they proved the best compromise ob tainable It i fcr this reason that (Jov ernor Cox's friends here feel that he has made a political mistake in his speech of acceptance.

SUFFRAGE SESSION WILL OPEN I0DAY Tennessee Legislature Will Probably Not Take Action Until Tomorrow BOTH SIDES ARE CONFIDENT (By Associated Tress.) Nashville, Tenn., Aug. 0. The Leg islature of Tennessee meets in sneciol session today to consider ratification of the federal woman suffrage amendment, nnd suffrage advocates hoped to com plete the list of thirty-six states neces sary to enfranchise the women of the nation. Delay by Governor Roberts in issuing the call for the special session, which was not sent out until Saturday because of the necessity of firxt holding elections to fill thirteen vacancies in the Senate and House, made it probable that ab sence of n quorum would prevent n regular session today. This evening, an adjournment until tomorrow is ex pected to be taken to permit members from distant parts of the state to reach the capital. Final statements before the opening of the battle by suffrage and untl suffrage leaders alike expressed con fidence as to the outcome. Disinter ested observers, however, refused to venture n prediction, declaring thnt tnc margin for or against ratification was too close. Calls for a caucus of Republican members preceding the convening of the session at noon had been sent. The action of the caucus was considered as likely to have nn Important beuring on the final votes, as there are seven Re publicans in the Senate and thirty -four Iu the House. Pressure on the Repub lican members as on the Democratic legislators has been brought to bear by party leaders. Washington. Aug. !). (Ry A. P.) Pro -suffrage leaders nt Nashville hnve received pledges from enough legislators to nssurc a majority in both the Senate and House of the Tennessee Legisla ture, according to a telegram to the headquarters here of the National Woman's party. The latest poll, token this morning, the message said, gave the ratification forces a majority ot three iu the House and one in the Senate. KEYSTONE WOMEN WATCH TENNESSEE 2,000,000 in This State Eagerly Await Legislative Action on Suffrage Two million Pennsylvania women are awaiting with Interest the action of the Tennessee Legislature today on the suffrage amendment. The session is n special one. Mrs. J. Willis Martin, nn influential member of the Republican women's committee of Pennsylvania, said today that the vote of this state's women will be almost unanimously Repuhln. in. With Republican leaders plunning nn intensive state campaign among the women, if they gain the franchise, she says, many prominent women are ready lo forsake their vacations and cam paign for Hardlug and Coolldge. In outlining reasons for the women's support of the Republican ticket. Mrs. Martin quoted figures piovlng that that partv hnd done more for (suffrage than the Democratic party. "The women of Pennsylvania." Mrs. Martin said last night, "have thought things nut for themselves as much (is the men, or even more, hecnusc their minds are less taken up with busi ncss affairs. They will not be duped by Cox. whom they know to be a mere follower of Wilson and the Wilson policies, "The women nf Pennsylvania are for a league, but they want a league with guarantees. They do not want a one man league." This desire to bowl over Wilson and his- one-mnn league will take prece deuce with the women above any de sire which they may hold to reward the ngeucies responsible for women's en franchisement. Mrs. Martin believes. If the supposition thnt the women will reward tlie party which had tlie larger share iu giving them suffrnce is correct, she said, the women voters will i find themselves confronted with the following option : nn jwrniy-nine uepiinucan states and only seven Democratic states have ratified the amendment. Seven Demo cratic states and only one Republican state have rejected the amendment. Therefore, the Republicans have done more for suffrage than the Democrats. (bl On the other hand, suffrage will not be possible if Tennessee refuses to ratify. It is improbable thut Tennessee would have adopted the amendment were it not for the appeals of Presi dent Wilson and Governor Cox. There fore, if Tennessee ratifies credit for the suffrage victory will be owing to the Democrats. J . E -Caldwell $ (o.
