This was mado moro clear by:Mrs, Gage, who oxplained that she camo from the Centonnint Contmssion, -Bho thought 'tha "best ‘method of colebrativg the toasparty would be by tho formation of an antistax leaguo. Dut there was auotlor toa:party. Tho masculine ‘tes-party of Doaton Marbor was preceded by threo years by nladies’ louguo, whoso uembera ivere bound not to use ten until tho tax waa ropealed, which party was hald 103 yoars ngo. The mon did not practice anything llke thie self-donial the ladios did. becauso the-formor encrificed the King's ten, whilo tho womon de- otroyad thoir own, The womon of that day had great influence with the other sox, ‘And ‘now ag to tho application, L'lie women of to-day wero .in n atato of bondage similar to that in which tho mon of that day were. Thoy woro ina stato .of “toxation without .represontation, which was “tyranny, and the only iitting colobration of the oston teasparty ot 108 yents ago waa'the forma- tion of an autistax league. 'l'ne law assumed that s woman nequiesced in the oxpenditure of money to lavg hor and to pay the Judge for oyllmluncmg her. The ° Blate was ‘over .o despot, and the individual the only safd government. ‘Tho results of ‘this aesumption wero ‘moat ‘“momentions.” “Government lLad assumed to .put .ita flnger on every relation of wowau, * hurchios and schools, mivisiers and priouts, colleges, coust-houses, houses-of currection and refuge, and city ualls were oxempt from taxa- tion, snd men were aroused againat tho axumf- tion, and would mend it, But woman had to ‘bear her full share in taxation without partici- pating.in law-making . Miss Anthony was flnod Tor living.up to tho principles of reprosontation, Dut (tho speaker was glad, vm?' glad to admit it) tho-United'States had fnilod hitherto to colleot a Ennuy of that fine, although its repressutatives nd followed lier about the streots to get it from der. {Smiles.] 'Tho monay used to prosccuto ‘Aligs Authony was illegally oollected, [Alore smiles,] When individual property vights wers 1ot recognized, the fudividual was'in.a degraded condition. . ‘Women:were especially imposed -upon in as- sossmont matters, bocaugo thay hiod not tho-rigit . tovote.
