Where Women Have Votes.

They have & limited right of suffrage in a reat many other states and common- ealths. It is impossible to form an in- lligent opinion of the marits or de- merits of the woman's suffrage cause from geographical - deductions. Israel Zangwill, the great English-Jawish writer, is an en- thusiastic suffragist, who has admitted frankly that he belongs to the class of male. supporters of this peculiar propa- gandw who have been described as ‘“‘men of putty, seduced by women of brass.” In Not o Milk Trust The Original and Genulne :HORLICK’S LMALTED MILK The Foed-drink fer All Ages.

[in & speech In defense of the -militant fragettes and their methods he, said: “It is told of & little girl who had been brought up In a newly-bullt town in a re- mote western state of America that when she was taken to New York and saw for the first time the crowded horse cars out- side the mighty station of the Pennsyl- vania rallway she cried out: ‘How cruel! They are using horses to drag the street ear.. How barbarous’ This little girl never had seen anything but an electric car. Her town, being brand’ new, had jumped over this antiquated absurdity of horse traction.” Mr. Zangwill used this incident to illus- trato his contention that “In strange, raw reglons of America and the Antipodes” the march of civillzation had jumped over the traditions of the barbaric system which imposes political disabllities upon Wwomen merely because they are women. While it is true that the mewest and most recently organized states have been most liberal in granting the elective franchise to the weaker sex, Finland and Iceland and even the Isle of Man cannot be included among these “raw regions.” Outsiders differ in their opinioh of whether or not woman suffrage 1s.a suc- cess in those communities where it has been tried, thelr differences being in the exact ratio of their prejudices, but the in- siders apparently are pretty well agreed that woman suffri s & good thing. New Zealand the constitutional pro- vision extending the privilege of the bal- lot to women was carried, at the beginning, by the narrow margin of two votes in an election in which the whole male popula- tion participated. After a trial of several years the prime minister of New Zealand ventured the assertion that there were not/ two persons in all the dominion of New Zealand who now would testify that they thought women suffrage & failure. New Zealand is the most radical of all clvilized states In its system of social laws, but in the country itself the word “progressive” always is ututed for the word “radical” aad the superlative is most strenuously insisted upon. The rest of the world may or may not agree with the New Zealanders that they have the, most advanced and most nearly perfect democratic government on earth, but the New Zealanders firmly believe it, and suf- they give the women voters & large share 45 Boys’ Double Breasted Knickerbocker Suits ‘With extra pair of knickerbockers also boys' blue serge and . fancy cheviot suits in Buster Brown and styles, one pair pants worth up to $4.00, at o, & free with every suit, mixed s 245 sailor Brandeis Stores Sell the Famous Rogers-Peet and Hirsh- Wickwire Olothes for Men.

This statement immediately brought forh an Indignant protest' from Colorado, In’ which the gov- ernor ‘of ‘the state, former Senator Patter- son and Judge Ben Lindsay of juvenile court fame, together with many others of the most prominent men in Colorado, vigor- cusly (denfed the truth of the statement made 'by the New York speaker. Prac- tically every prominent man in Colorado Has signed the petition for woman suffrage which will be presented, to congress next the vast majority of the people express entire satisfaction with the -exist- Ing election laws, Within the last two years woman suf- frage has been rejected by the states of Iowa, Massachusetts, Missouri, Nébrasks, Rhode- Island, ‘South Dakota, New York and Wise Twenty-nine states now Bive women the right to vote in school elec- tions, but the last législature rejected & bill giving them the full suffrage, - Michi- gan, Loulsiana, New York, Iowa and Mon- tana give tax-paying women the ballot in elections relating to bond lssues or tax levies. This modified right of suffrage is given also in many forelgn countries, in- cluding most of the provinces of Canada, the kingdoms of Denmark and Sweden and the commonwealth of South Africa, In France women engaged In manufacture or trade have (he right to vote for judges of the courts of commerce. In Great Britain, where the woman suf- frage movement is now more active than in any other part of the world, women have the right to vote, subject to the same restrictions as me the election of all officers except members of Parllament. This right Is very generally exercised in municipal elections, and there are several women members of the London county councll, which is the greatest municipal legislature in the world, ‘Women participate more generally in pol- itics in Finland than in auy other country in the world, The Finnish women always have been prominent in commercial and economic enterprises, and when they de- manded political rights they woon got what they wanted. The Finnlsh Diet has had a great many very able women pariamen- tarians, and their influence has Leen posi- tively on the side of those who have re- sisted the Rusalan attempts to throttle the liberty of the Finms. Bt has been sald, and truly, that in the United States the crusade for votes for women has made very Mitle headway. This & quite true, but it may be attributed principally te the lack of interest upon the part of the women themselves. In Massa- ohusetts and New Jersey, Where ‘woman suffrage once existed, the women offered 0o reststance to the of their right umluniuv -dlnvhhm ifested no general desire for a restoration of thelr old right. In Massachusetts, par- ticularly, they falled to respond when.the fegislature left the 'decision of the question to & vote of the women. themselves. Women had the right to vote In the territory of Washington, but lost it when that common~ wealth was admitted to the union of states. But Washington is a western state and the women always have been active in pushing their demands for the franchise. In other states the movement s carried on by a very small percentage of the female population. In the east'and the south a vast majority. of the women not only remain indifferent to the ‘appeal of their emancipatad sisters, but actually .are opposed fo the entire movement. In the United States, as well as in Eng- land, there are active organizations com- posed of women who opposing the de- mand of the suffragists. In England Mrs. Humphrey Ward, the novelist, is the head and front of the anti-suffragist movement. In the United States there are now work- ing anti-suffrage organizations In Massa- ‘chusetts, New York, Maine, Illinols, Ore- gon, Towa, Rhods Island and the state of Washington, With such officers in the New York association as Mrs. Francis M. Seott, Mrs. Arthur M. Dodge, Mrs. Elihu Root, Mrs. Richard Watson -Gilder, Mrs. George Phillips and Miss 1da H. Tarbell. The antl- suffragists have collected data to show that the standard of morality ‘{s no higher, the condition of the working women no. bet- ter, the progress of philanthropy no switter in the states granting equal suffrage than it is in the states where women follow thelr more feminine bent and correct the evils of soclety through their. home influence, their clubs and their church work. As early as 1586 & protest was made by anti-suffragists before the select commit- tee ofyfhe sénate on woman suffrage. “We belleve that God has wisely and well adapted each sex to the proper per- formance of the dutles of each. We be- lieve that woman suffrage would relatively lessen the influence of the intelligent and the true, and increase the influence of the ignorant and viclous,” the women wrote. These are the sentiments of hundreds of thousands of ‘women who still are content to abide at home and leave the steering of the ship of state to the men of their families, confident that the Influence of home life 18 most potent and having faith {n the ports being reached more safely it they don't meddle with the steering gear.
