Now a le jud justice of the peace or police judge- congress and legislatures of no effect. and at times with glee : Thus have judges come to be rulers. This country has be come a government by judges w, mind you, that doesn siecetsartly mean a reign of justice nor even a reign of law. I means the rule of mortal men who are human and may err. The people alone have power to call judges to account an¢ even a minor official declares the solemn acts 0 sin compel them to be servants instead of masters, D discussion, publicity are necessary to enable the people to de this. Any man who denies the right to criticise judges anc courts promotes despotism, because usurpation of despotism. And since the people alone can stop this usurpatior of power, they must learn the facts and exercise their power against judges, as in times past they have against kings and princes This is the reasoning that prompted The Star to attack the record of the state supreme court, that the people might know by what manner of men they are governed. As long as the su preme court rules the state, the people must rule the supreme | court, and to rule the supreme court they must nominate and | elect the men who compose the supreme court. This can be accomplished on November 8 by the election of the five non partisan candidates. If You Believe in Your Mother? There never bas been a single valid reason why women should not have the identical right to vote as a man. The exercise of the franchise is no more dependent upon sex than it is on the color of the hair or the method of eating exes. The sole requisite for the franchise should be intelligence, and no man can truthfully gay that sex fs any factor tn intelligence. Such opposition ax there has been to equal suffrage is either selfish or the result of sex bigotry. The selfish opponents are those, such as breweries, liquor dealers and others, who fear the unerring womanly instinet for righteousness. They know they can keep the male voters divided on all moral questions which hinge on economic and political issues. They also know that no sordid ap- peal to dollars will influence the woman. They fear the wonjanly ideal The bigots frequently disguise their bigotry by sentimental twaddle about the sanctity of the home and the duty of the woman to cling innocently around the fireside. In view of the fact that thousands of women here in Seattle Might daily for their existence, shoulder to shoulder with them, asking and receiving no favors on account of sex, should be sufficient argument against all this pseu do sentiment. The exotistical bigot, in whom IMngers the idea of the supremacy of the male, because of his greater muscles and more arrogant brutality, is one beyond the ch of any argument He and his kind will go through life absolutely convinced that every man fs the superior of every woman However, the people of Washington are to vote on the question of woman suffrage on November § Every man who belleves in the mother who bore him should vote to vindicate her intelligence. Every man who believes. his wife has enough Intelligence to rear his children should testify to this Intelligence by voting to allow her to exercise her franchise should she so desire. It's merely one way of asking you whether your mother, your wife or your sister is a reasoning human being, or whether she is @ lesser animal fit only to be ruled. it’s up to you as a man November 8.
