SUFFRAGE QUESTION MAY COT FIGURE IN Tomm™ In many respects tne most inter esting and important general elec tion in Georgia in the last decade is under way today, when the voters of the state are casting their ballots for. or against the Democratic prest denital nominees, and for or against a portion of the Democratic nominees for offlcesc in Georgia. Whether the women would be al lowed to their ballots was some what uncertain on the eve of election. Attorney General Denny has ruled, that women who have placed their, names on the registration lists are el igible to vote in spite of the Georgia law requiring registration of all votfers at least six months prior to the date of an election. As the worn- Sn were Jiot enfranchised by the doption of the suffrage amendment to the federal constitution until after the six months period had expired, legal opinion is divided on the cor rectness of the attorney general’s ruling. Generally speaking,' Democratic white women are not disposed to complicate the validity of the elec tion by voting or attempting to vote. Among negro women, however, hun dreds of whom have registered in various large counties, there is a movement on foot by the Republi can state central committee to send them to their respective voting pre cincts to demand the right 1,0 vote, and then to test the question in the courts if they are not allowed to vote. Thus the suffrage question en ters into a Georgia election for the first time, and the ultimate outcome may not be determined until the courts have passed upon it, should the Republican leaders carry out their announced intention of testing the question in the courts. G. O. F. Victory Just Talk With regard to the vote of Geor gia for or against the Democratic presidential nominees—Governor Cox and Franklin D. Roosevelt—there has been talk in some circles of the possibility of the state going Repub-4 lican, but this is clearly nothing more than talk. Every Democratic leader in the state, of whatever fac tion, is supporting Cox and Roose velt. The Hoke Smith adherents, the Clark Howell adherents, the Thomas E. Watson adherents, the Thomas W. Hardwick adherents—all are comfciitted most emphatically to the support of the Democratic na tional ticket. So it would seem that there is hardly any room left for a Democratic defection. The talk of Georgia going Republican, in the Opinion of all political leaders, will turn out before—to be nothing but talk. The fact that Georgia Democrats of all factional affinations and in all parts of the state have rallied frith such enthusiasm and generous contributions to the Democratic ap peal for campaign funds, is in itself an evidence/ that the mass of the party in the empire state of the south has no intention of turning its back upon Democracy. Nevertheless, the Republican state' central committee has made it easy for Georgians to vote the Republican national ticket while voting the Dem ocratic state ticket. The evident ob ject was to open the way for a de fection of Democrats to Harding and Cooledge. The committee in prepar ing the Republican ticket used a part of the Republican ticket and a part of the Democratic ticket. Thkt is to say, it used the names of the Republican presidential electors; then the names of Thomas E. Watson and Harry Stillwell Edwards as can didates for United States senatori then the names of the full list of Democratic nominees for governor and other statehouse officers. Confusion in Tickets A Democrat is liable to use this ticket by mistake, thinking it is the Democratic ticket. If he does, his ballot will be counted for Harding and Cooledge, for he will have voted for the Harding-Coolidge electors. But this “hybrid ticket,” as it be ing called, is not likely to catch many Democratic voters, in the opinion of the principal Democratic leaders of the state. Democratic- .Voters have been warned to be bara£uhnot to vote a Republican ticket by mistake, and the information concerning the “hy brid ticket” has been pretty well dis seminated throughout the state. So far.as mistakes can be prevented by a general warning, they will not oc cur. But the Republican state central committee has not stopped with the “hybrid ticket” composed of a com bination of Republican presidential electors and Democratic state house nominees. It has put four candi dates in the race for congress, as follows; Other Complications First district, where the Republicans are running E. S. Fuller, of Savan nah, against Congressman J. W. Overstreet, the Democratic nominee for re-election. Third district, where they are run ning A. E. Lockett, of Americus, against Congressman ~ Charles R. Crisp, the Democratic nominee for re election. Fifth district, where they are run ning John W. Martin, of Atlanta, against Congressman William D. Up shaw. the Democratic nominee for re-election. Ninth district, where they are running Dr. C. L. Barnwell, of Nor cross, against Congressman Thomas M. Bell, the Democratic nominee for re-election. Thus the Republicans are contest ing Georgia for presidential electors —i. e., for Harding and Cooledge; are contesting the places of four con gressmen; are giving Democrats and Republicans an open choice between Thomas E. Watson and Harry Still well Edwards for the senate. There is every Indication and ■ ev ery reason to believe that the Dem ocratic presidential electors will sweep the state; that the Demo cratic nominees for congress who have opposition will sweep their dis tricts; that Thomas E, Watson, the Democratic senatorial nominee, will sweep the state; and that the total Remiblican vote for any or /all of their candidates will be but a rem nant. as always heretofore in presi dential election years. Before casting his ballot, every Democrat should examine it care fully. The Republican ballot is headed: “Official Republican Bal lot.’ The Democratic ballot is headed: "Form of Official Democratic Ballot.” The principal distinguish ing mark of difference between the (Continued on Page 7, Column 4) America Chooses New Chief Today; ■ Both Parties Express Confidence As Ballots End Cox-Harding Race Republicans Claim "Over whelming Victory; ’’ "Cox and Roosevelt Will Win/’ Declare Democrats' Cox or Harding? As this edition of The Tri-Weekly Journal went to press the greatest question in America today was about to be settled. On Saturday, the long Rattle of words, with the League pf Nations as the burning issue, foixnally ended. The campaigns prosecuted by the Democrats and the Republicans were finished. True, a few minor skirmishes were the rule Monday. But the contest for voteis virtually ended Saturday night when Governor James M. Cox and Senator Warren G. Harding de livered their Ifist pre-election ad dresses. Monday heard the final toot of the political horns and saw the ultimate flare of red fire. On Tuesday came the voting. As is usual whenever Uncle Sam chooses a new ca/jtain for hits ship of state, both the Democratic' and the Republican leaders asserted com plete confidence in victory. “The evidence of the overwhelm-, mg Republican victory hourly in creases,” was the statement of Will H. Hays, chairmap ,of the Republic an national committee. “It is now certain that the Republicans will have a minimum total of 368 electoral votes. We will-have a greatly in creased majority in the house and a substantial majority in the senate.” White’s Forecast Tiffs from George White, chairman of the Democratic national commit tee: “Cox and Roosevelt will win. They will have a party majority in the senate and house.” Socialist headquarters, while mak ing no claim of electoral votes, pre dicted that the party would poll the largest vote -in,its history—3,4)oo,ooo some leaders claimed. While assert ing that many of these ballots would represent party converts, Socialist advocates also prophesied that many would represent a protest vote against imprisonment of "political prisoners” including Eugene V. Debs, their own presidential candidate, now in the Atlanta pentitentiary for vio lation of the espionage act. All parties took into consideration sfrelling of the vote by appearance of women casting their ballots for president. Claims of Hays In his prediction of victory for Senator Harding and Governor Cool idge, Mr. Hays laid claim to the fol lowing states: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Idaho, Illinois. Indi.ana, lowa, Kan sas, Maine, Massachusetts, Michi gan, Minnesita, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Yfltk, North Dako tJi, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, < Utahr Vermont, Washington, West Virgin ia, Wisconsin and Wyoming, “In addition,” said Mr. Hays, "the Republicans have very much better than an even chance to carry Ari zona, Kentucky, Maryland and New Mexico, with 27 additional electoral votes. Tnis makes 395 Republican eletoral votes almost certain out of a total of 531. “Republican victory in Kentucky is absolutely certain provided the weather is such that it is practical ly possible for the great Republican majority in the mountains of east-1 ern Kentucky to get to the polls. This i same element enters into the result [ in Tennessee, where there is a splen-| did chance for the Republicans. We I also have a splendid opportunity to I carry North Carolina and Oklahoma. iThis makes the probability of an ad ditional 34 votes. “The only states certainly Demo cratic are Alabama, Arkansas, Flor ida, Louisiana, Mississippi, • South Carolina, Georgia, Texas / and Vir ginia. “Victory for America” “The electorate of America which is/for ‘America first,’ is simply wait ing for the opporutnity to voice -a '•protest against inefficiency, extrava gance and autocracy ip. government; to express, its in the constructive ability of the Repub lican party in a manner that will be heard around the world.” 1 Mr. White, who declared .he had spent the last three days checking up detailed reports from all state chairmen,, asserted he saw “no reason to alter my forecast in which I predicted a certain victory for the Democratic "ticket.” Mr. White referred to a prediction he made Itst week. “But, in perfect fairness, I want to say that this yill not be alone a Democratic victory. It Will be vic tory of America, a victory over dis lojjglty and partisanship, a victory over the councils of selfishness. V "This nation wants to establish and maintain world peace in con cert with those nations which were our allies in the struggle against imperialism. It/ wants to extend the Moiitoe doctrine to the world. It wants to secure peace in the east ern hemisphere as in the western, and to spare future generations of Americans from the necessity of lay ing down lives abroad to save man kind from military domination. “We have won the argument for peace. We have won it despite the fact that an absolutely clean and fair campaign /on our part has been conducted in the face of a campaign that bore every other semblance but fairness and cleanliness.” president Votes by Mall The-pyesidential candidates—Senator Harding and Governor Cox —wound up their campaign travels in the west. The senator chose Columbus as the city in which he would deliver his last address before election day, while his opponent ended his elec tion activities with an old-fashioned torchlight parade in Chicago and an address at Coliseum, where his-Tival was nominated. The vice presidential candidates selected the east for their final elec tion addresses —Boston for Governor Coolidge and New York for Franklin D. Roosevelt. Parley P. Christensen, presidential candidate of the Farmer-Labor party, running with Max Hayes, today car ried his campaign into the state of Washington. Although his ticket mate, Eugene V. Debs, was forced to conduct a unique campaign in the form of statements issued from be hind prison walls, Seymour Stedman, vice presidential choice of the So cialist party, carried his appeal for votes personally throughout tne country. Aaron S. Watkins and Leigh Colvin, leaders on the Prohibition ticket, and Robert C. MacAuley and Richard C. Barnum, Single'Tax can didates, also have carried on their campaigns aggressively. Ami. while presidential candidates todajrwere matching plea with plea for the right to occupy the White House for the next four years, the present oocupant cast his vote. Neither President nor Mrs. Wilson went to Princeton, where they are registered, but mailed their ballots to New Jersey.

Louisiana Commissioner Urges Cotton Ginners To Continue Running -NEW ORLEANS, Nov. I.—Harry D. Wilson, state commissioner of ag riculture, today issued a statement in which he advised the cotton gin ners of Louisiana to continue opera tions and not close down for a period of thirty day?, beginning Monday, as asked to do in a proclamation by Governor Parker recently. Failure of cotton ginners in other states to co-operate with Louisiana ginners in the movement to close the gins until the price of cotton reaches production cost is given by Commissioner Wilson as the reason for his action in calling off the move , ment. The commissioner states that hun dreds of letters have, been received in response to Governor Parker’s ap peal to close the gins, signifying a willingness to do so, but inasmuch as other states will not co-operate it is useless for the gins of this state to close. ) Oldest Ranking Officer Os Confederate Army Is Dead in Florida BARTOW, Fla., Nov.

I.—(By the Associated Press.) —In the presence of church dignitaries, scores of his former comrade volunteers and thousands of his countrymen the body of Terence MacSwiney, lord mayor of Cork, was lowered to its resting plape in the “Republican plot” in St. Finbarr’s\ cemetery, just outside Cork, Sunday afternoon. Despite the splendor lent the. scene by the attendance of the high churchmen, there was a simplicity marking the ceremonies that was im pressive. ' Outside the cemetery, hidden by the enormous crush of townspeople, tfro armored cars, their machine guns ready, and a half dozen lorries filled with soldiers was dugAvn up at the roadside, impqp-ting a sinister air to the otherwise solemn proceedings. But during the transfer qf the body from the city hall through- Streets lined with cyowds to St. Mary’s ca thedral and during the procession from the cathedral to the cemetery there was not an incident of vio lence or disturbance. Whole Country Paid Tribute The city of Cork and the whole countryside paid tribute to the mem ory of their “newest martyr.” The body was buried beside that of for mer Lord Mayor Mac Curtain, who was assassinated. A few yards away are the graves of Joseph Mur phy, adorned with an American flag, and two other Irish Republican sol diers. Murphy, like MacSwiney, died a hunger striker. Archbishop Harty, of Cashel, oc cupied the throne in presiding over the solemn requiem mass in St. Mary’s, cathedral. Consignor Cal laghan, bishop of Cork, was the cele brant. The clergy assisting included Archbishops Clune, of Perth, Aus tralia, and of Hobart, Tasma nia, and Bjshop Brown, of Clyne, O’Sullivan, of .Kerry, Muley, of Bal larat. Australia and Fogarty, of Kil laloe. Thiy coffin, over which was draped the Irish Republican flag, rested on /a catafalque covered with a pall and with a skull and cross bones on either side, such as is used at the obsequies of high church men. , , ... The cathedral was filled and thou sands of persons were massed in the adjacent streets. 4 Great Tuneful Frocession The transfer of the casket from the city hall was without incident. Two armored cars and five lorries of troops kept in the background as the cortege moved to the church. The two-mlle route of the proces sion from the cathedral to the ceme tery was flanked, by thou* sands of persons who bared their heads as the flag-draped casket, borne on the shoulders of the may or’s brothers and intimate friends, Pa Whe’n the services at the cathe dral ended and the procession, for’li ed under the supervision of the Irish volunteers, moved off slowly, the cathedral bell began tolling. This was immediately echoed by.f£ e b ?“ r s of the other churches in the city. John Peter -MacSwiney, brother of dead lord mayor, iacted as chief cot fhi bearen. Father Dominic, Mac- Swiney’s private chaplain, and Ar thur Griffith, vice president of the “Irish Republic,” came immediately behind him. One hundred and eighty priests headed the procession. They were followed by acolytes and high chufch dignitaries. Then came two flower-burdened hearses, a com pany of volunteers dressed in citi zens’ clothes and twenty-five car riages with women mourners. Americans Send Wreaths Volunteers, each of them .carrying floral pieces, formed an Outer col umn on each side of the procession. A cordon of volunteers held back the solid lines of bareheaded specta tors who overran the sidewalks. A number of wreaths sent by Ameri cans were noticeable among floral pieces in the hearse«. As the clergy were filing away from the graveside after the body had been lowered, six men who were admitted within the .circle formed by the volunteers, took positions over the grave, fired a revolver salute of three Volleys and silently withdrew. Mr. Griffith, in paying tribute to MacSwiney’s lifework in the serv ice of the Irish cause, declared that Joan of Arc “would find n the mar tyred lord mayor a worthy comrade in heaven.” THOUSANDS OF AMERICANS HONOR MAYOR M’SWINEY WASHINGTON, Nov. |1. —Thou- sands of’lrish sympathizers in vari ous American cities paid tribute to the memory of Lord Mayor Mac- Swjney, the hunger striker, who was buried at Cork today. Parades and appropriate services were conducted here and at Boston, Phi 1 adelphia and other places. Young Sinn Feiner * Pays Death Penalty In Dublin Monday DUBLIN, Nov. U —Kelvin Barry, nineteen-year-old student, was hang ed here today for alleged complicity in the murder of three British sol diers. Barry’s sentence stood despite the intercession of high Sinn Fein and churUli officials who petitioned the Irish office. Lord Mayor O’Neill, of Dublin, tel ephoned Premier Lloyd George late last night as a final report, but the premier said he could no't interfere. Archbishop Walsh joined in the pe tition. Barry received communion this morning in Mount Joy prison, ap parently taking great comfort from the words of the priest. He walked calmly to the scaold without the as sistance of his guards and stood un flinchingly while findl preparations were made for the springing of the trap. r Greek Throne Belongs To, Father, Declares Young Prince Paul LUCERNE, Switzerland, Oct. 30. (By the Associated Press.) —Prince Paul, of Greece, replying to the Greek minister’s offer of the throne of Greece on condition that both his father, former King Constantine and his brother. Prince George, recog nized Paul’s right to the throne, said he did not share the Greek govern ment’s view.. "The throne belongs to my august father, who is willing to subordinate his return to the wishes of the Greek people,” declared Prince Paul. “Hq has not renounced his rights. But! I am willing to ascend the throne if the Greek people decide they do not wish the return of my father and exclude my brother.” 5 CENTS ▲ COPY. $1.50 A TEAR. Thomas’Donehoo, Arrested in New York, Is Millionaire Cracksman and Train Robber, Agents Say Positive Identification of Thomas Donahue, master confidence man. highwayman and cracksman, as the man who held up an Atlanta post offjce mail truck on June 15 and made away with $61,000 in Liberty bonds, and as the man who operated with John C. Moore,/alias John N’blan, in burglarizing banfes in at least five Georgia towns several years ago, wai completed in New York Saturday, . according to telegrams to Atlanta 'deral officials from Postoffice In a ector E. W. McKew, who went to New York following Donahue’s ar rest there on Monday. * Donahue will be given a prelimi- • nary hearing before the United States commissioner in New York on No vember 5, and then will be brought to Atlanta for trial. Inspector Mc- Kew wired Saturday that Donahue had attempted to secure his release by posting a temporary bond of >26,- 000. Apprehensive that he would jump the bond, Atlanta inspectors promptly dispatched telegrams urg ing that the man is worth! probably a half million dollars, accumulated from robberies 'perpetrated over a period of thirty years, and that it would be unsafe for the government to set him at liberty. x Wanted in Carnesville An Indictment against Donahue for the alleged cracking of a safe in a Carnesville bank now is out standing, according to I the federal officials. John Moore, who is now serving twenty years for burglariz ing banks in Ball Ground, Fayette- y ville, Oak Field, Concord and other Georgia towns, la said by Inspectors to have implicated Donahue in -all of the robberies, which involve the theft of thousands of dollars. Since the sensational truck rob bery in June, Postoffice Inspectors * Fleming, Barry and McKew, work ing under the direction of Chief In spector Charles Riddiford, have lit erally combed the country for Donahue. Inspector Fleming made trips to San Francisco. Boston and Philadelphia; Inspector Barry visit ed Chicago, New York and other cities. Descriptive circulars were sent to federal, state and municipu/ authorities in every city in the coun try. Donahue was well known tu police eveiYwhere, but they seemed unable to apprehend him. His ar rest in New York followed a care fully laid trap by the police. He had up to a week ago successfully eluded the authorities for several years. Donahue is said to have served five years in the Atlanta federal penitentiary for stealing and dis posing of government property. He is said to have served three terms. • aggregating twelve y,ears. in Sins Sing on convictions 'of cracking I safes, looting stores and working “confidence” games. Mail Truck Bobbery 7 Postofflce Inspector Clyde Fleming described the sensational manner iii which Donahue robbed the'Atlanta •mail truck,, as follows: “He boarded the truck at J:3O o’clock on the night of June 15 at corner of Forsyth and Hunter streets, <Jrew two pistols and stuck them in the ribs of the driver and the postal’ clerk on the truck, and com manded them to drive to a point be yond West View cemetery. Thera he slashed -open several registered mail pouches, removed $61,000 in Liberty i Bonds and quickly disappeared in the darkness. It was several days before clues connecting him with the robbery were secured, and he had, of course, left this section in the meantime.” Cha : lcs Widener, a young postof fice clerk who was on the burglarizes mail truck, accompanied Postofflce Inspector McKew to New York ana aided in the identification of Dona hue. Telegrams from NewATork also In i dicate, Inspector Fleming said, thar» the same bonds stolenf from the truck were later disposed of by Donahue at various pawn shops in Chicago, Philadelphia and New York Several thousand dollars’ worth of these bonds have been recovered, i t is said. Inspector Fleming said Donahue has been a confirmed criminal since his youth. He added that he operat ed in each state under a different alias. “His Georgia alias was Char lie Morgan, while in other parts of the country he used the names, Charles Rowell, Thomas Dugan, Frank Harris, Thomas McConnell and others,” said Mr. Fleming. “On, Donahue’s forehead.” he con tinued, “is an ugly scar, the result of a severe wound he received when he attempted to burglarize a butch-, er shop in a western city. 'The butcher hurled a big knife at him, stopping him before he could reach the cash drawer.” ' I The arrest of Donahue, according to federal officials, practically com pletes the round-up of the band of five notorius criminals who operated in Georgia a number of years ago, burglarizing many many banks, working “confidence” / games and rifling United States malls. At lanta postoffice inspectors have ex erted themselves for four months in an effort to bring about Donahue's capture. ' The operations of the famous "John Nolan" band, of which Dona hue is said to have been the "brains,” are well remembered throughout Georgia. Using Colum bus as a base, the gang established headquarters in a handsome home ii a select residential section of th< city A woman, who Is alleged to hav< kept house for the gang, was said t< have been represented to be Nolan’s wife. Postoffice inspectors from time to time have, it/ is said, se cured valuable information from this woman. It was her testimony it is said, which led to the'convic tion of “Whitey” Thompson, J. C. Hulsey and Nolan. She is now with in the reach of the inspectors and will probably be used as a witness' against Donahue when he is brought to trial. The only- member of the band still at large* is said to be George Har ris, who, it is alleged, participated In the famous Strickland robbery. Postoffice inspectors predicted Saturday that Donahue has commit ted his last violation of the law, and that he will be given the limit in the event of his conviction in the federal and state courts of Georgia. / $13.95 Goodyear Raincoat Free Goodyear Manufacturing Company, 4208 Goodyear bldg., Kansas City, Mo., is making an offer to send a handsome raincoat free to one peri son in each locality who will show and recommend it to their friends.
