Gordon A, Johnstone Tells of Unusual Conditions in the South, Gordon A. Johnstone, agent of the Fulton Bag and Cotton company at Atlanta, Ga., one of the great textile plants of the south. and formerly in Danielson as agent of the Danielson Cotton company, had much of inter- est to tell Thursday relative to the south’s great cotton crop, after his arrival for 2 few days’ stay. Mr. Johnstone describes a rather unprecedented condition, the great percentage of the crop remaining un- picked in the flelds because the banks will advance no more money to the growers to meet the harvesting costs Figuring the abundance of the great snowy staple under present conditions. due in great measure to the European war, the banks regard the price level as likely to reach 7 cents. possibly 6, and for that reason do not care to in- crease their loans to the growers. The big planters with plenty of money, Mr. Johnstone says, are not so bard hit, as they can readily flnance the picking of the crop, but the' small planter with a few acres and a mule —grower of a few bales of cotton— is up against it On his way north Mr. Johnstone locked out from car windows on many thousands of acres of cotton where the frst picking has not yet been done, although the time for doing it has long since passed.

FOR AND AGAINST. Democratic Delegates Implored by Norwich Wamen to Work for Equal Franchise and by Hartford Women to Oppo: Pity the poor delegates to the dem- ocratic state convention in 8ession in Hartford today and think out for yourself what you would do, were you a delegate, anxious to make woman- kind happy, if just before you started for the capitol city, your mail brought you two letters urging upon you two very different kinds of action on the matter of woman suffrage. One of the. letters came from Norwich to the del- egates in this section, the other from Hartford to the same unfortunates The letters follow: Norwich, Conn:, Sept. 16. My Dear Sir: In behalf of the Nor- wich Equal Franchise league _the Wage-Earners’ League of New Lon- don, and of many believers in Woman Suffrage in New London county, I earnestly beg that in the coming con- vention of the democratic party in Connecticut you use all your influence to secure careful consideration of this question by this convention, and that vou do all in your power to make equal suffrage a part of the platform of the dcmocratic party, The time is ripe for comsideration and action on this matter, . In ten states equal suffrage has been tried with entire success and in seven other states a bill enfranchising wo- men has been passed by the respec- tive legislatures. Very truly yours, E. 8. B. WOODWARD, M. D. Vice-Pres. Norwich Equal Franchise League. Chairman for New London County. The Hartford Letter. Hartford, Conn,, Sept. 14, 1914. Dear Sir: The vast majority of Connecticut women do not want the vote and we submit that it would be most unfair to thrust it upon them against their will Woman suffrage is not a political issue; it cuts across party lines; its advocates and opponents are found in all parties. The ins-rtion by any party of a suffrage plank in its platform would simply invite opposition to the party and its candidates. The omis- sion of such a plapk, on band, would leave the party unfettered and its candidates free to follow dictates of conscience. nection we point out that woman suf- frage was defeated in both branches of the last Legislature by a nom-par- tisan vote of two to one. If, therefore the suffrazists should request the insertion of a plank in the Democratic platform, advocating that a constitutional amendment be sub- mitted to popular vote, or otherwise faverable, directly or indirectly, to suftraze. we would respectfully urge tha' the request be denied. Our reasons for- opposing woman suffrage are too numerous to set forth in this communication. Suffice it to say that in order to repel what we consider a great danger to the home and therefore to the State. we have perfected our or-anization. composed of women from every walk of life in all the countles of Connecticut While we belleve you will not seri- ously entertain any such proposal, nevertheless it the suffragists should ask. and your honorable committee should see fit to grant them a hraring we assume that you will also hear our side of the matter.

Principal of Tourtsllotte Memorial High School to Be Reclected, as the Result of Special Town Meeting— Only One Man Opposed. At a special town meeting in the town of Thompson, Thursday after- noon, the town voted to request the school board to reengage George W. Hathaway as principal of the Tour- tellotte Memorial High school for an- other year. There was only one dis- senting vote, that of Oscar Munyan, one of the schoo! board, who has been unfavorable to: Mr. Hathaway. Several letters were read from Mrs. Jacob F. Tourtellotte, of Minneapolis, who, with her husband. gave the town the $150.000 high school building, re- questing that Mr. Hathaway be re- tained for another year. Mrs. Tour- tellntte stated that if Mr. Hathaway was reelected, she would build a fine residence near the schoo) for the prin- cipal and would increase her yearly contribution for the expenses of main- taining the school from $4,000 to $8,000 a year. A fund of $600,000 has just been left by the late Mr. Tourtellotte that will come to the town outright after the termination of several life estates and it has been anticipated that Mrs. Tourtellotte will remember the town in her will; thereby it is expected the town will eventually receive a fund of £1.000,000 from the Tourtellotte es- tate. The school board has been at a deadlgck over the hiring of a prin- cipal and-it was for the purpose of breaking .this deadlock that the meet- ing was held. & Mr. Munyan was the only one who had a word to say against Mr. Hath- away. He sald that Hathaway had been writing Mrs. Tourtellotte let- ters and had stirred her up and given her false Impressions and that he was “trying to blackmail the town to get his salary raised.” He sai that Hathaway had been working to have Mrs. Tourtellotte leave her money so that he (Hathaway) would be sure of a life position as princl- Randolph H.
