MILTOX LAWYER WILL COXSILT WATER BOARD REGARDING CHANGE IN CODE. That the state Irrigation code as It now stsnds is faulty in one particular Is asserted, by Attorney S. D.

The code provides no simple manner whereby waterusers whose rights have not been adjudicated man be settled save by Involving all other users upon the stream in question.

Garabee of the Pen House Turns Down Proposed Amend ment to Enfranchise Women by a Vote of 201 to 171 Final Vote Comes at End of Day of Mncfa Or atory For and Against Bill. WASHINGTON. Jan, 1J. Suffra gists, Undaunted by the defeat of the Mondell woman aufrrage resolution In the house last night, say the fight will be transferred to the senate. Three plans for continuing the fight are under consideration. One Is the Palmer suffrage . resolution now on the senate calendar and another the passage of a federal measure where by women could vote for senator and a third the passage in states of a bill permitting women to vote at presidential elections. WASHINGTON. Jan. 1J. The house of representatives, by a vote of 204 to 174, refused last night to sub mit to the states an amendment to the federal constitution to enfranchise women. The vote, the second in the history of congress on the woman suffrage issue, came at the close of a day of, Iong-prepared-for oratory, during which the many speakers were list ened to with frequent evidences of ap proval or disapproval by packed gal leries. The question was before the house on the Mondell resolution te submit a constitutional amendment providing that the light of suffrag should not be abridged "because of .Majority H Again Resolution. A two thirds affirmative vote was necessary to pass the resolution; It was defeated by a majority of 10. Party lines were not strictly drawn In the fight, though democratic lead er Underwood, voicing the attitude of his party that suffrage la a state Is sue, strongly opposed the resolution while Republican Leader Mann waa one of the chief speakers of the suf fragists.
