An editorial wil appeer im ergument Reason 8—BECAUSE WOMAN’S PRESENT POLITICAL STATUS IS ANOMALOUS. By Ruth Hanna McCormick. BELIEVE that one reason why the women in the thirty-six non- | Suffrage States ahould be enfranchised is that Women have full suffrage in eleven States of the Union, and the Presidential and municipal suffrage in Illinois. That is, 3,665,445 women already have the right to vote. But if any one of these women gets up and crosses an imaginary line which separates her State from a non-Suffrage State she immediately becomes disfranchised. Now, why should women in twelve States help to elect the Presi- dent of the United States, for instance, and the women in thirty-six other States have no voice in his election? If we wish to be con- sistent we must do one of two things—enfranchise all the women in all the States or disfranchise all the women in all the States. If the Anti-Suffragists are sincere in believing that votes for women ie the disaster which they say it is, they could do no greater service to humanity than to go right out West and fight the thing on its own grounds. But the trouble is the Antis don’t do it, and in no one of the twelve Suffrage States has there ever been @ strong, concerted And so the United States presents the strange anomaly of part of its women enfranchised and part not. The only logical thing to do, since no one will start a movement to take the ballot away from the women in the Equal Suffrage States, is for the East to follow the example of the West and enfranchise its women. _ ts Against Suffr Reason 3—-BECAUSE WOMAN SUFFRAGE HAS NOT SHOWN THAT IT WILL BENEFIT THE STATE. By Mrs. Arthur M. Dodge. * woman suffrage is to benefit the State, it must be shown beyond I doubt how it has done so in the places where it has been in effect for a generation or more; if it is simply to add a new freedom, or dignity, or benefit to women, it must be demonstrated that the women with the vote have attained superior laws and conditions to those that are accorded to them without the ballot. Otherwise, on the one score of not being worth while, we have sufficient reason to reject woman suffrage. Woman suffragists are proposing a doubled electorate, to support which an increase in the State budget is necessary. Therefore, the burden of proof rests solidly on the suffragists to show how the doubled electorate can or has become a better instrument of govern- ment for the people, Tn this connection it is interesting to note that not a single law, not one improvement, is or can be claimed as the exclusive result of the votes of women. The male suffrage States lead. In mothers’ pensions, child labor, limitation of hours for working women, mater- nity acts, supervision of dairies, pure food, weights and measures, ex- tension of educational facilities, improved sanitation, &c., the great astern States have worked out their social problems without woman suffrage to a higher standard than that reached by the States where women vote. On the other hand, a great increase in taxation, a multi- plicity of useless laws and a pragfical doubling of public office holding without any compensating gain for the citizens is the accompaniment of “votes for women,” The Woman Who Dared A Married Life Series of Utmost Interest By Dale Drummond Copyright, 1015, by the Press Publishing Co, (The New York Evening World), OHAPTER V. “But why give up hope?’ © Erlo Y¥ father had made some un- | &#ked, bis somber eyes burning into fortunate investments, ao} 2%... . house where we had always |™y face, chagrined that I had con- lived was sold to meet his| filed #0 much to an ulmost absolute obligations, I hadn't a relative in the |""“Hecuuse I saw it world that I cared for, nor a penny | Kismet, fate, whate: I could call my own, I was utterly call it, was too much for me, dopendent on my husband, and he lessly’ continued.
