They’ll Be After Joey [ JOSEPH WELDON BAILEY really intends to become a candidate for another term as United States senator from Texas in 1918, as is gen erally believed by his friends and more than halfway admitted by himself, he made an awful break at Houston the other day. During the speech mentioned, referring to woman suffrage, he held up a glass of clear, pure water. “This is woman before she votes,” quoth he. Then he dropped in a bit of ink from his fountain pen, “And THIS, after she ,” he added. : Now there more than an even chance that the next Texas legisla- ture will pass a woman's suffrage bill. If Joe Bailey’s love for dramatic effect will, doubtlless, prove his undoing. The Texas suffragists are even now taking up a subscription for what they term “The Bailey monument fund,” lest they forget. Politics hath no fury votes is like a suffragette scorned, Mr. Bailey. There’ll Be “‘Doublings,”’ Sure NHE republican national convention promfses to contain plenty of ci effects and the movie photographers shouldn't fail to be present. The national committee has limited the convention floor seats to the t number of delegate illy apportioned, but several of the Southern ites have selected ‘“doubl delegations, each delegate having a half or a third of In Georgia and Louisiana there are contests between “black and tan” and “lily white” delegations which seem possible of settle- ment only thru splitting the votes. As the picture now presents itself to our mind’s eye, we see somebody sitting on somebody else’s lap in that convention, We also see a sort of by-product contest on this point, “Shall a black and tan sit on a lily white lap, or vice versa?” It is, however, not too late for the national committee to warn every honorable delegate from the South to take along with him his own stool. A is as comfortable as the ordinary convention chair, and you can throw it a good seal farther and straighter. 7 cus exa vote SXRXXEREEX y Frederick S. Isham A Novel Copyright, 1914 by the A Week!
