Idrnt. TlIK WOMAN VOTK
Pity the politician! For the past
three months he has been under a
lerriflc strain, and today Is the worst
of all. For today the women of
Alliance. Nebraska, and the nation
appear as an Important factor in
politics. The party managers for
wwks have worn furrows In their
brows in conceiving arguments cal
culated to attract the new voters,
and today they are to discover
whether their efforts have been in
Tain. It's the first time the woman
vote has ever been a real factor In
a presidential election, and the poli
ticians are worried, although they
smile sweetly and do as much claim
ing as ever.
How are the women going to
vote? We don't know the politi
cians are Ignorant and the women
are probably somewhat dubious
themselves. Some of thein won't
take the trouble to voe. But there
will be enough of them use the fran
chise to change the political com
plexion of states and throw the cal
culations of the party managers to
the winds. If they decide to do it.
Once, before woman had the vote,
the Idea was that woman suffrage
-would double the number of ballots,
but effect little change in the out
come. If the politicians could only
"be sure this Is the case. In Alliance,
it certainly isn't. Think over the
women you know. Are they voting
the same tickets as their husbands?
Not a bit of It. Here and there's
you'll find a woman who does, but
on the other hand here and there
you'll find a man who has been won
over by his wife.
Women In Alliance, anyhow, are
not blindly following the lead of
their husbands. At least half a doz
en prominent and would-be promi
nent lights In the republican party
blush and stammer when they dis
cuss the politics of the wives of
their bosoms. Of seven prominent
young republicans, the wives of six
are democrats and strong demo
crats, too. Some of them have even
appeared at democratic rallies. A
"tew wives of democrats are republ'c
an, but the proportion, happily, does
not seem to be as great.
If the women are not following
their husbands, whom do they fol
low. In most cases, It Is the father.
Girls somehow have a wholesome re
spect for the Judgment of dad and
.while hubby Is a handy piece of fur
niture to have around the house, it
Is a matter of common knowledge
that women seldom if Mat to tlw
Judgment of the f-cai)M head Of
the house. Other womert fUow the
political Judgment of their' brothers.
If It works out everywhere as W does
in Alliance, a lot of political cflop
sters are going to have a dark biWn
taste In their mouths tomorrow
morning. We don't wish they any
hard luck, but we hope they do.
TlIK MAIIION-I.TTK
(By Oliver Herford.)
InMariOirTown there's a wonderful
show, ,
Backed by Penrose and Smoot and
Co.,
Presenting the marvellous puppet
clown .
The Marion-ette of Marlon Town.
The greatest manikin of the age
That ever was seen on porch or
stage,
Worked by wires and wheels et cet.,
A most remarkable Marion-ette.
It dances to any old tune you please
And straddles the League with the
greatest ease,
It's Pro and It's Anti-Suffragette,
This highly adaptable Marion-ette.
Though a puppet, it really seems to
speak,
But behind the scenes stands a pow
erful "clique"
To furnish big words and phrases
set
For this awfully Ingenious Marion
ette, i.
i
It's sonorous gabble brings equal
cheer
To the sons of toll and the profiteer.
For the drys It's dry, and the wets
it's wet,
This very ambiguous Marion-ette.
Its favorite word Is "normalcy,"
Which means "get back to what used
to be."
Good old Reaction's one best bet
Is this truly reliable Marion-ette:
This hoary back-numberful, phony
Btage-thunderful,
Perfectly wonderful Marion-ette!

To the Editor of The Herald:
A statement appeared In Tuesday's
Times misquoting a remark made by
a Heniiiigford lady in regard to the
care that should be taken by the
women In voting. Instead of saying
that one would bw visited by the
wrath of God should they cast their
vote against the league what was
said is this: Anyone who voted on
the question of the league without
being informed on the subject, and
giving due thought, or voting blindly
because husband, father or relatives
voted thus, would be answerable to
God.
In answer to the question of how
many women present had read the
league, most of the ones opposed
acknowledged they had not A Dem

shown that he voted against it thirty
times and for prohibition two times.
