HOPES TO HAVE BASIS OF REPRESENTATION IN NATIONAL CONVENTION OF 1912 ON VOTE AT NOVEMBER ELECTION.

NEW WOMAN'S CEMETERY ASSOCIATION PLANNED

Chicago June ft. On board the

wreck of the flagship of the squadron of the 'allies." as it floats into the convention harbor, is the resurrected ghost, of the movement to reduce the representation of the southern states in future republican national convent ions. From what is learned of the purpose of the campaign managers of the "allies.'' now that, they have practically given up the fight, it is the purpose of the northern states' leaders who have "favorite son" candidates, to force a resolution through the convention which will compel the basis of representation of the 1 ! 1 U convention to he the actual republican vote cast next. November in the various states. It. is tin' recurrence' of the quadrennial protest, against the domination of the southern delegates in convention affairs, and in the national committee, which comes first from one element of the party and the next time from the other,, dependent altogether upon which element is supported by the southern delegates. The agitation which has been noted to cut down the reprosenta.t ion of the. South in congress has been more marked than definite during the last session of congress than ever before. The outcropping of that sentiment will be formally sprung on the proconvention arrivals today. They hope to have conventions called under the proportional system instead of by the customary method of apportioning two delegates to each congressional district and four, at large to each state. The answer of some of the representatives of the "allies" is not concealed over the condition of affairs as they have found it in the national commff f o'o ' ' ah d ' " tv Ti f ch" " they -expect- to coVti'nVie' cTur'irig 'the' national convention. The possibility of a fight ou representation redffction is regarded as near. It is probable that a formal statement from the camp of the "allies" concerning the matter will be issuer! snon. Those who have canvassed the situation figure that the states which would gain representation naturally would favor the proposal and the losers would stand opposed. I'pon such a basis, the coming convention should stand t;; for the new plan and 1116 against, with the fourteen votes from

Oklahoma, and the fourteen from the territories and the District of Columbia, which would lose entirely, in all probability, not counted.

Thicago, June P. Transformation of dull pupils in the public schools of Chicago into bright, alert boys and girls by means of a simple and harmless surgical opera? ion is one of the prime objects el" a campaign of inspection inaugurated in the grammar Schools by the city health department. The dullness of pupils who are bright enough to attend public schools scientists have found, is due in a large percentage of cases not to natural mental deficiencies, but to the erowth of adenoids at the base of the nasal passages, in what is known as the post-rasa! tract. A surgeon cuts out the adenoids just like removing a tonsil and his knife banishes the apparent stupidity of the child.

MASONIC CALENDAR.

It is generally reported that the Central I'nion Telephone company will attempt, if it has not already done so. to secure a sub-lease arrangement with

the. Home Telephone company. If this arrangement is completed the Central Union company will take care of. the long distance telephone business, while the Home company will have the entire local business. Noah Mutton, local manager of the Central Union company, states that he has no information concerning this proposed arrangement. He says that if his company intends entering into

such an agreement with the Home TelI ephone company, it is kee ping the matIter very much of a i:eiret. ! This morning. K. H. Cat.es. one of 'the directors of the Home Telephone I company, stated that no such an agreel ment bad as yet been entered into with ! the liell people and that he did not know whether such an asreemor.t ! worn M be made if the Centra! Union 'broached the proposition to them. YV. 11. Kailey. of the Home Telephone company, intimated this morn- ; ing that, the reason the Centra! Union i company had stopped the construction

of its Main street conduit system, was because there were negotiations pending (Hkir.g forward "to placing its Main street Mires in leased conduits of

' the Home company's conduit, which is : located in the first alley north of Main : street..

Ex-soldiers of company F, ltllst are in receipt, of a number of communications from interested, parties in the matter of the continuance or perpetuation of the Grand Army of the Republic, as the civil war veterans in many localities are confirming with this move, declaring that, the ?ons of Veterans and cteiT.ns ot the SpanfshAmeriean war should unitn with them in perfecting the organization.

dictators how little they are demanding for themselves, the women w'll engage to state all their wants in thirty

vends. They have been and rcfinins: end poTndng phrasimr until thirty wor

th business. Furthermore. they have learned, they say from experience that it isn't a wise thing to be too exacting. They do not intend this year to ask for a constitutional amendment. Platform builders are proverbially conservative, they contend, and have always sh ed like a skittish filly when anyone suggested that it. would be a. good thing to recast the federal constitution. This year all the women desire is to see the party go on record in a mildly affirmative way as favoring equal suffrage. Ask a Recommendation. The plank, therefore, which thev will submit will commit the party to nothing stronger than a recommendation to the various states. In its tentative form this plank reads ar, follows : "We recommend the granting of suffrage to women upon the same terms

which it is granted to men." I This plank was granted by Catharine Waugh McCulloch, before she sailed for Kurope. and ha.s the approval of the co-workers lu re. There, is a 1 alternative plank also, but it. now seems probable that this will not go before the committee on platform. This plank, which was drafted by Miss Kate Gordon of New Orleans, is similar to others which have been, promptly rejected by political conventions in the past. It reads: "We recommend the passage of a resolution by congress recommending to the various states the adoption of an amendment to the constitution granting to women the right of suffrage." The fact, that there are alternative planks dors not imply any partisan feeling. The women are a unit. Appear Before Committee. Their formal plans contemplate an appearance before the committee on platform upon a certain day to be designated later. At that time, in a series of brief talks, three or four leaders will exhaust the pos.-lhle arguments in favor of equal suffrage, emphasizing the injustice of the- present system of taxation without representation and the imperative need of giving women a voice in governmental concerns, particularly in those relating to municipal administration. Mrs. Charles Henrotin probably will ret. as chairman of the committee. The arguments of the suffragist party will j be epitomized by Miss Jane Adams, i Rev. Caroline Bart!U Crane of Kala

mazoo, Mrs. Henrotin and possibly two ; others. ' j Mrs. Henrotin spoke yesterday of j the coming test with a heart v opti-1 t nnsm. "We believe that no purpose would ; be served by asking for a eonstitu-j

tion.il amendment now," she said. "Of course the decision is not. on the part of the platform framers. We believe, too, that, such action rests more properly with the individual states. "We have no doubt of the ultimate issue of course, and we know that the virtue just now demanded of us is patience. Patience and more patience; Rut where the justice of granting the ballot to women is so manifest as it is we cannot bur look for success." To Present Arguments. "Yr simply shall present our arguments as briefly as possible, too, hpfore 'b.e committee. We shall point, out the absurdity, the injustice nf taxing property owning women who have no voice in the matter of governmen'. and. in ceneral. of asking women to
