Will Appeal to President
Shippers in Spokane and the district
tributary to it, headed by A. W. Do
land, president of the Spokane Mer
chants' association, wearied of the re
peated delays, evasions and numerous
postponements by the Interstate Com
merce Commission in the Spokane rate
case against the transcontinental rail
roads, are discussing plans to appeal to
President Roosevelt to bring about an
early decision in this now famous liti
gation. The Spokane case was the
first instituted under the new interstate
' commerce law, which became effective
! January 1, 1907. The chief complaint
' is that the carriers are discriminating
j against this city and the immediate
i territory. The suit, which was insti
I tuted in the name of the Spokane cham
i ber of commerce and other organiza
tions, seeks equitable rates from east
ern points to this city.

H. Seward, Chief Justice Chase, Chas.
Kingsky, Herbert Spencer, Dr.
Talmage, Bishop Potter, Bishop Spaul
ding of the Catholic church, and many
of the great editors and literary men
who have worked for this cause.
Among women, we can cite the names
of Florence Nightingale, Harriet
Beecher Stowe, Louisa M. Aloott,
Elizabeth Barrett Browning. These
women were" self-respecting" and were
respected by the whole world. Susan B.
Anthony, who bore the gibs and ridicule
and social frowns for long years, died
honored and mourned by all nations.
William McKinley, in the beautiful
words you quote, veiled no insult to the
women who wished for the ballot as a
protection for their homes. If the suf
fragist is an "agitator," the agitating
is always on the side of morality and
better conditions and it is barely pos
sible that in every city Fome politicians
would rather see the dregs not stirred
up.

the writer, and in another column we
reproduce it. Evidently the author of
that article was ashamed to send it to
the editor of the News-Herald, and
from the way the article was signed,
she was evidently ashamed of her own
ofT-snring. We cannot blame the por
mortal in the least; we would be asham
ed of the thing ourself.

suffragist may be said to have a habi

place. The American home is the bul
wark of the republic. Home is more
than habitat, it is that sacred institu
tion, where the true wife and mother,
not suffragist, preside: where they
teach the boys and girls purity of life
and thought, and point the way to use
fulness and distinction. We thank
God, we were reared in a sacred home,
and not in the habitat of the suffragist.

assent to the representation? How
about our fore-fathers and th j "Stamp
Act." The opinion of "fifty women"
is a very meager test on which to base
the desires of American women. To
most of the leading men, the strongest
reason for granting suffrage to women
is that the foremost women of the land,
who are devoting themselves to the up
lifting of humanity are declaring that
!'n the interests of their work it is
nceesatuy that the ballot be given to
woman.
"There is no real reason nor demand
for woman suffrage." The demand now
is most urgent for temperance reform
is sweeping over the hand and if wo
men could vote the life of the saloon
would be very short. Temperance wo
men became suffragists because they
were forced to be. They learned that
a disfranchised person whether idiot,
lunatic, convict, Indian or woman, is a
cipher, so they were converted to wo
man suffrage.
Consistency to our cause compels us to
seek the powerful weapon of the ballot,
for it is the only effective measure for
the defense of her home and children.
"Mankind cannot rise above the mother
of mankind." The "human question"
lies at the foundation of the "woman
