COMPULSORY VOTE BILL MSI PASSED Senate Surprised Itself by Action Women's Suffrage Butted in.
A B0WL1IIGJ0URIIEY International Event Opens in St. Paul, Saturday.
Scxon, White, Karlow,
(Palladium Special) Indianapolis, Feb. 10. Tho senate tuok Itself by surprise Thursday afternoon by passing Senator Durrc's compulaory voting bill 29 to IS. For some llmo tho bill has been considered without much gravity, but Senator Durre became very serious in discussing tho measure, denied be ever was anything else in regard to it and was supported by a string of interesting talks along the lines of civic decency which pulled tho bill across practically without amendment. The vote was as follows: Aye: Itrady, Carlcton, Clark. Commons, Crumnaeker, Durre, Farrell, Fleming. Gavit, Halleck, llanna, llibberd, Illggens, Hunt, Jenkens, Kane, Klmmel, Kistlcr, Lambert, Moore,
Nettervllle, Proctor, Kails, Hhlvely, Hull! van, Tray lor, Wood -29. No: Aiken. Deal. Curtis.
(ers, (Jreenwell, Hawk. Jackson, I.nmont, Ixng. McSurty, Parks. Powers. Strange, Tilden, Trautmann, Yarl-lng-18. Not voting: Harlan, Stotsenberg, Jtoyse. Woman's suffrage entered Into the argument and Inst Senator (J rube's aupport for the bill. He offered an amendment that the measure should not affect "females who may hereaf'ter become qualified voters." He painted the awful picture .of tho fond husband the day after election going to Jail to bail out his wife because she had so much cooking to do on election day she couldn't vote, and then paying a $100 fine. It was pointed out that such an amendment would make the bill unconstitutional, then, to save the women from the Ignominy of punishment for not voting, ho must oppose the bill. Ha Believes It a Joke. Senator Curtis led the most forceful attack against tho measure, saying he believed all along it was a joke, and offering an amendment which killed sections 3. 4 and G. The first of these provides that the grand jury be given a tally sheet and return truo bills against non-voters who have not proved themselves exempt from tho actions of the measure. The second exempts the man who holds conscientious scruples against balloting for candidates and appears at the polls and makes affidavit to that effect. The third makes it prima facie evidence that the act has been violated
If a voter be in a precinct while the polls are open and does not vote. Senator Curtis said one of the foundations of this government. was freedom and n man bad a right to do with his ballot whatever he wanted. Senator Wood who made the strongest argument for the bill, answered Curtis, and pointed out that the bill would tend to clear up election impurities by bringing out tho true expression of the people. Ho pointed out that the ballot was the most sacred possession of citizenship and should not be neglected. Tho Curtis
amendment was lost. Senator Sullivan offered an amendment exempting primaries, declaring the measure an experiment and safer If tried In sections than if swallowed whole. Ills amendment was lost. An amendment offered by Senator Lambert that thoBe having conscientious scruples against voting file affidavit with the township trustee 10 daya before and election was lost. Two Kindt of Voters. Senator Durre in arguing for the bill, said there were two classes of men at whom the bill was aimed, the man who was too "nasty nice" to "mix in dirty politics" and who then stood on the Btrret corner and "cussed the politicians for the kind of men they were putting in office," and the
other In the class which stands b;fck nnd refuses to vote in hope of being able to attract somo offer for com'pcnsatlon. Hoili he classed in the name general division as "undesirable tUliens." He cited tho law making jury service compulsory, tho compulsory observance of Sunday, and compulsory military service to show that the bill would be constitutional. One particular point he urged in favor of the bill was the section which makes it unlawful for any election officer to enter the booth with any voter unless ho be physically incapacitated. He raid this safeguard would prevent much vote buying which now is going on. The only amendment adopted was offered by Senator Traylor and agreed to by Senator Durre. and protides that there Khali be no compulaory voting where only one ticket Is in the field.

The international bowling association of "Looies" 'as they arc sometimes called In the middle west were organized in 1909 to satisfy a demand in the western Btates for ail independent bowling league. Its growth has been phenomenal and it is predicted that in two or three years it will rival
tho great American bowling congress which has heretofore usurped almost all the attention of tlie bowlers of the United States. Elaborate, preparations are being made by the St. Paul West Side club to entertain the visitors at their new $50,0Hi club house. Might new alleys will be thrown open to the contestants and arrangements have been
made whereby each entrant is to be-1 come a member of the club and have! all the privileges of the club house during the tournament. One of the features of the contest!
will be the prominent, place given to
tho women members of the league. I Special nights will be set aside for tho female devotees of the Fport. and 1 substantial prizes offered to the win
ners. Among the lady entrants will be the famous Flower league of St. Paul and special delegations from many of tho largest cities of the middle west. In addition to the regular bowling events there will be special events arranged for the closing day, February 22, which will include five men team contests at tho rate of $10 per man; left, handed men. ambidextrous events, and a ladies team competition. All teams and members who participate in the tournament will be eligible for these events. Among those who will bo present are Johnson, winner of the singles last year, Martin nnd Vandertunk, who carried off the honors in the doubles, nnd the Chalmer-Detroit team of Chicago, which also won tho National championship. St. Paul will enter about 100 teams in the tournament. The association, according to the last census has more than 20 leagues, each having from six to thirty clubs and each club consisting of
