Undoubtedly some do and some do not, But how about the great majority, the women who work, whether at motherhood or housekeeping or in a shop, an office or a factory? | Do they want to be put on legal equality with men? Do they prefer rights or privi- | leges? Women voting is in itself a! minor question compared with the great modern problem of woman’s| status. Should women be self-supporting, and is it as much their) duty to support their husbands and children as it is the duty of their husbands and children to support them? Should the alimony law be made equally applicable to men and women? Should the jury law be amended and juries be composed of men and women, or all man on women’s cases and all women on men’s cases? Tn the woman suffrage argument at Albany yesterday there were able, talented and distinguished women on both sides. Any one of these women is intellectually better fitted to vote than are a great many men. Every one spoke from conviction, from thought, and with the sincere desire to do what she thought best. But numerous as these women are who take an interest in womar suffrage one way or the other, there are hundreds of thousands of women in this State who never knew there was going to be a woman’s suffrage debate in Albany and whose interest in the newspaper ac counts of it to-day is less than in a hundred other affairs. ‘To man) | women the servant problem is much more vital than woman suffrage | The change of fashion attracts many times more feminine interest. Tlow many women know what the tariff is, or the financial diffor ence between a gold and a silver certificate, or could intelligently describe the Raines law, or have even a hearsay acquaintance with primaries? Of course if women want to participate in all these things they will. Mere man has too great a desire for domestic peace to stand in the way for an in- stant.
