It oame as the climax to fl'e years, fraught with hope and love labors of the George B- Slngletary Chapter, Daughters of the Confeder acy, and It stands for all time as the memorial to the men and the spirit of Pitt county which gave to that great struggle him who fell, first at listhel and him who ordered the last charge at Appomefox. That same spirit was evident yes terday when the men and the wo men of Pitt, thousands In number, greeted the Governor of North Caro lina, Locke Craig, Just u In thow former times, they showed their feel ing for their State at the behest of Its executive head.

She may possibly- deserve that distinction among all the people of the entire State. She Is ninety-six years of age. She, together with Master Bryan Grimes, son of Secretary, of Htate and grandson of the distinguished general of that name. puUed the string that unsrouded the memorial. Mother Allen doesn't believe that niety-six years is the time to sit down supinely and rest. Not she. ller grandson recently built a fence about the home In the country. The gate was in one end of the yard Mother Allen didn't care to walk that far, so aha cllittied over the fence. "It was. Juat fourieeU" she said." and that, too, was the spirit pf Pttt.

"Dedicated 114." On the west the inscription reads, "Krected bv the People of Pitt County in Grateful Re membrance or tne courage ana r oni tude of the Confederate Boliders." oGvernor Jarvls Presides. Ex-Governor T.

It. By vote of almost J to I. the- convention of the National American Woman Suffrage Association here late today decided that It work before Congress for the ensuing year shall not be limited to efforts for the passage of the Brlstow-Mondell suffrage amend ment to the Federal constitution. At ah earlier session the association de clared that Its congressional commit tee shall not eondect campaigns against candidates In any Htate with out the consent of the suffrage asso ciations in the Htate concerned. The action of the convention ' on th matters settled two of the most im portant questions before the present convention. The debate on both la- sules was spirited. Tonight s mass-meeting waa under the -aueptcee of the. National Men's League for Woman Suffrage, with James Lees lAldlaw presiding, and addresses by Senator Luke Lea. of Tennessee, and ot.hera. Consideration of the legislative measures to be supported by the nat ional association - In the coming year waa Axed as s special order of busi ness In' the afternoon- session. Much of the opposition to the administra tion's plan . to work before Congress for other measures than the Brlstow- Mondell resolution came from advo cates of the "State's .rights" Idea la the movement. lMrs. Harrlt Stanton Blatch. of new York, presented the Initial mo tlon "that the Shafroth amendment be not proceeded with by the national association In the next session of Congress." A sub-motion offered immediately by Mrs. Raymond llromn. of New Yord, declared that "it is the sense of the convention that the policy of the national association shall e to sup port by every means within Its power. In the future as tn the past, the amednmrnt known as the Susan A. ! Anthony amendment, A ad. further nai we support sum otner legislation M the national board may authorise and Initiate to the end that the Susan B. Anthony resolution may become law." . IVnen - Want to Speak. Mrs. Barton Jenks, of Rhode Island then moves to strike out the last sen tence of Mrs. Brown's sohgtitute. Im mediately at least a dozen women were on their feet xhoutlng for a chance to be heard on the motion. Miss Jane Addams. who presided recognised Mrs. Geo. W. Bass, of Chi cago, who spoke warmly against limit ing the association's efforts to one measure. Mis Kate" M. Gordon, of New Or leans, president of the Southern States Suffrage Association, favored Mrs. Jenk's motion., asserting that she did not believe in allowing the national board too great powers In Initiating legislation. Mrs. Valentine, of Virginia, and other Southern delegatea, said the gouthem States would not care to accept tne Mnarrotn amendment, dui that they would more quickly., grant woman suffrage through their State Legislatures.- When debate Was closed there were a score or more of delegates who still wanted to express, their views on the question. Mrs. Jenks amendment tn strike out was loht by a viva voce vote, and Mrs. Brown's substitute mo tion for ihst offered by Mrs. Itlatch was adopted by a vote of 194 to 100. A motion offered by Mrs, Trout, au thorizing th national board to en dorse and support a Federal amend ment for, a national Initiative and referendum law was defeated. Try t Win Alamaba. " Following" discussion of the legis lative measures, the '' convention adopted the recommendation of a special committee that all the 22 members of the two Tennessee dele gations, one headed by Mrs, D. Cro sier French, of KnoxwIHe, and the other by Mrs. James McCormlck. of Memphis, be given seats In the. con tention. Delegates from Southern States at a conference tonight decid ed to. concentrate their efforts toward the winning of a Southern State for Woman suffrage within the next two years.
