has a chance to carry Fulton county
(Atlanta). The race in Fulton county
between Palmer and Watson was ad-
mitted by the Palmer forces to be
close, with Palmer, according to their
figures, less than 100 votes ahead. In
order to win, however, Mr. Watson
would have to get practically all of
the remaining twenty-four votes.

Again referring to a Federal law
which has been thrust upon the states
in the form of national prohibition, Mr.
Hailey said that he is of the opinion
that its abuse would extend farther
than the benefits accruing from its use.
He cited, ns an example, that a man
was recently killed outright in West
Texas because he did not halt when
ordered to do so by two Federal offi-
cers, neither of whom wore any visible
badge of a Federal officer (or spy, as
Mr. Bailey termed them), and who
merely halted the West Texas man
and because he did not stop, killed him
without hesitation. ‘This man.” said.
Mr. Bailey, "who died so suddenly at
the hands of .Federal spies, was a citi-
zen in good standing and had served
well in the World War in an American
company in France. (Applause and
cries of "We have had enough of that
stuff already.”)
Senator Bailey referred to the claim
that he is ineligible to become Gov-
ernor of Texas, because he is a non-
resident citizen. ”I think I know the
law on this question, and if I didn’t
know I am eligible I wouldn't be seek-
ing the office. Since I have been prac-
ticing law in Washington I have spent
more time in Texas than both of your
United States senators combined,” he
said, amid laughter and applause.
“I am a Texan, and I expect to live

human life, take advantage of a run-
down condition such as the nystem is

Republican and a semi-socialist, or a
socialist who calls himself a Democrat,
I would vote for a Republican.”
He attacked the Dallas News and
the Fort Worth Record for trying to
"make up the people’s minds for
them.” The speaker made this refer-
ehea to the newspapers in attacking a
report of a speech in the Dallas News,
in which M. M. Crane was quoted as
saying if the constiiutlon stands in
the way it should be stretched. "Such

DELAWARE GOVERNOR
DEFEATED FOR DELEGATE
DOVER, Del.. April 21.—Governor
John G. Townsend Jr. failed of elec-
tion yesterday as a delegate to the
national convention at the hands of
the Delaware Republican state conven-
tion. which named six delegates, the
state’s full representation, to CMicaxo.
The governor’s defeat came in the
Sussex couniy caucus when the dele-
gates elected at last Saturday’s Pri-
mary met and selected the county's
two representatives on the delegation.
He lacked eight votes of a majority
to win, and when the vote was an-
nounced it was urged by friends that
be carry the 'fight to the floor of the
convention, but thia thegovernor.de-
I elded not to do.
The delegaes elected to Chicago, two
from each of the three counties in the
state, are:
Gen. T. Coleman Du Pont, present
national committeeman from Dela-
ware; United States Senator L Heister
Ball. James A. Hirons, Alden R. Ben-
son. 8. 8. Pennowell, former governor
of Delawre, and Robert R. Eillott.
The convention adopted a resolution
favoring the ratification of the woman
suffrage Federal amendment recently
defeated in the Delaware house of Pep-
resentativen.
' The six delegates elected were not
instructed, the question of binding
them not having come before the con-
vention.

dots not-contain any of such principles
either directly or by inference.
Raps M. M. Crane.
Mr. Bailey roundly denounced again
the suggestion made at Waco recently
by Martin M. Crane, who, he said, had
favored "etretening the constirucon
when such became necessary in order
to pass undemr cratic statutory laws.
Mr man stated he was in favor
cf state prohibition, especially wince .
the peopt of Texas had spoken *t the
polls on tat sibject aid a majority
of them had voted to change the on-
stitutlon to the end that this state
should be constitutionally dry. He de-
nounced with equal vigor the nationa:
prohibition amendment, holding that
Ehe"rights or the states are set aside
and that the constitution is not only
infringed, but it is "stretched" to suit
the false doctrine that the different
legislatures had indulged to Buit their
unwarranted fancies, thus deprivins
each state of its constitutionally
guaranteed right to settle questions
regulating her own internal affairs.
Mr Bailey hooted the idea that he
arid others who subscribe to the Fort
Worth platform are backed by the
brewery interests: He stated that
there is no more "any such animal” as
the brewery interests, that if there
were it would make no headway with
Ms help or that of any one else in
Texas, which state has a constitutional
amendment forever prohibiting tht
sale transportation, manufacturing 01
bartering of Intoxicating drinks.
Mr Bailey again expressed his op-
position to permitting women to vote,
saying that woman’s place is in the
home. "Mother,” he raid, “is the holiest
name in all the languages." (Ioud

of the home, as she has been recog-
nized from time immemorial, go to the
polls and vote, and carry on other du-
ties now incumbent upon men only,
and when I say ‘duties,’ that is exactly
what I mean. Now that she has se-
cured the privilege of voting, she must
accept the duties that go with that
privilege, the greatest that can be
given to an American citizen.
"When I am elected Governor, how-
ever, I will keep her from serving on
the jury, from working the road and
letion and bad government, to prevent
the destruction of this great common-
wealth by enactment of socialistic leg-
islation,” he added.

PALMER LEADS IN GEORGIA;
TOM WATSON IS SECOND
ATLANTA, April 21.—Latest unof-
ficial returns from yesterday’s State
Democratic presidential preference pri-
mary gave Attorney General A. Mit-
chell Palmer forty-eight counties with
140 votes In the State convention;
Thomas E. Watson fifty counties with
120 votes, and Senator Hoke Smith
forty-two counties with 100 votes.
There are a total of 384 convention
votes In the 155 counties^of the State,
leaving fifteen counties with twenty-
four votes yet to be reported.
Mr. Watson still had a chance tc
pan. The opening, which ranged from
% c to 1%e lower, with May $1.71% to
$1.72% and July 81.85% to $1.66, was
followed by a moderate further set-
back. and then something of a rally.
Oats weakened in sympathy with
corn and nu a result of more encour-
aging prospects for seeding. After

at 88%e to 89%c, the market under-

responsibilities that belong to the
sterner sex.”
“But, after all,” concluded Senator
Bailey on the woman suffrage argu-
ment, "the worst of the whole affair
is that the law is a Federal one and
has deprived each state in the nation
of its guaranteed right to settle such
questions for itself, and Woodrow Wil-
son agreed with this statement intoto
for several years after he went into
office as President, He deelared that
woman suffrage and prohibition were
both questions that the separate states
should settle for themselves, nnd that
as President of the United States he
would not have to do with such meas-
ures. Iater on, “for expediency’s sake,"
'he kicked in’ in the interest of both
by Federal amendments. That is but
one of many of his examples in which
he demonstrates the old saying, "Con-
sistency, thou art indeed a jewel.”
Criticizes Senator Sheppard.
Mr. Bailey paid his respects briefly
to Senator Morris Sheppard, when he
referred to the fact that Senator Shep-
pard had introduced a bill in Congress
providing for 84.OOO.OQO per year for
a Federal bureau of maternity and In-
fantile hygiene. “That means,’’ the
speaker said, “that it will be a matter
of but a short time until the national
government will be attempting to con-
trol the babies of the mothers of
Texas! Now, in the name of heaven,
what right has a national government
