foreigners and it waa a great satisfaction
to me to see what good Judgment the
women showed. There was one Irish
woman, very bright, mho could not read,
end therefore I was allowed to go Into
the booth with her to help her mark her
ballot. The first proposition waa about
bonds for a new hospital. The Irish
oman said: Is the same bunch to
spend the money that run the hospital
we have now? Then I'm against It.'
The next proposition was about a sub
way; the next about a hospital for con
tagious cases, and so on. There were
ten propositions to be acted upon. I
was scrupulous not to influence her; yet
on nine of them, she voted, from her own
common sense, just as the Municipal
league and the City club had recommended
as the result of painstaking research. It
reminds me of what John Morley said
that the elector is not expected to be an
expeit, but to express the mind of the
common people, and that the most valu
able voter Is tho person who knows most
about social misery and the wys in
which It can be mitigated. Any woman
woo gives her mind to it can vote In
telligently on such questions as are placed
before the people."
Put
Antis' Reasons
Together
Alice Duer Miller edits a witty woman
ruffrage department in the New York
Trtbune, In a recent Issue she gives our
own twelve anti-suffrage reasons:
1. Because no woman will leave hot
domestic duties to vote.
I. Because no woman who votes will
attend to her domestic duties.
3. Because It will make dissension be
tween husband and wife.
4. Because every wife will vote exactly
as her husband does.
B. Because bad women will corrupt our
politics.
6. Because bad politics will corrupt our
women.
7. Because women have no powor of
organization.
. Because women will form themselves
into a woman's party.
t. Because men and women are o dif
ferent that they must have different du
ties. 10. Because men and women are so
much alike that men with one vote each
can express themselves and us, too.
11. Because women cannot use force.
12. Because the militants can and d
use force.
Judge I.indsey, testifying before the
federal commission on industrial rela
tions, in session at New York, May 28,
1914, said; "Colorado has perfected the
scletico of corrupting men. Its Judges, its
supreme court Judges, are owned like
office hoys. Its lawyers, its business
men, all are owned. There fire, of course,
fearless men, but they have paid a heavy
sacrifice for their fearlessness. Conditions
are worse than the old slavery days and
I consider Colorado no longer has a re
publican form of government."
Theodore Roosevelt says: "I believe in
woman's suffrage wherever the women
want It wherethey do not want It the
suffrage should not be forced upon them.
I think that It would be well to let tho
women themselves and only the women
vote at some special election as to
whether they do or do not wish the vote
an a permanent possession. In other
words, this is peculiarly a case for tho
referendum to those most directly af
fectedthe women themselves. I believe
such a referendum was held in Massa-
ehueetts, in which a majority of the
women who voted voted in favor of thn
ballot. But they included only about 5
per cent of the women who were entitled
to vote and where the vote Is to light
those not voting should be held to have
voted no. This waa In J
"In our western states where tho suf
frage has been given to women 1 am

has been caused as compared with neigh
boring states of similar social and In
dustrial conditions where women have

"Most of the women I know best are
against woman suffrase and strongly
criticise me for aiding in, as they term It,
'forcing' it on them.
"Most of the women whom I know best
are against woman suffrage precisely lie

A Fair Test
Men had voted In Massachusetts tot
almost 300 years oefore Massachusetts
abolished night work for women or gavt
them eqjal guardianship or equal prop,
crty rights. After men and women have
voted together for 300 years In the suf
frage states. If any of those states are
found to be lacking in the most ad
vanced legislation, we may fairly con
clude that equal suffrage Is no qulckei
a tool for bringing about Justice to wo
men than is an exclusively male suffrage
ALICE STONE BLACKWEIJ
Suffrage Progress
Th large majority of teacher are
women, and as aucb are still without the
right of suffrage In most states, there
fore, tha funds from which their salaries
are paid are under the control of offi
cials in whose selection they bave no
vote. It should be clearly recognised,
therefore, that the relation of woman suf
frage to the honest and fair adjustment
of the salaries of women teachers is
ltal and immediate.
seven years, and previously chief Justice 1
of the supreme court of Colorado, stales
In the Denver Republican: "Our state
has had the female suffrage plan a suf
ficiently long timo to form a fair idea of
Its working. I am not prejudiced in
any way, but honestly do not see where
the experiment has proved a benefit. The
presence of women at the polls has only
augmented the total ote; it has worked
j no radical changes. It has promoted no
speciul reforms, and It has had no par
ticularly purifying effect upon politics.
There is' a growing tendency on the part
of most of the bitter and more intelligent
femnle voters of Colorado to cease ex
ercising the baliot. They still go to the
polls, but meed to be urged by some of
j their male relatives. I do not believe
there will be any abrogation of the suf
frage rights of women of our state, for
tho reason that no man who aspires to
office would risk their displeasure by
advocating the repeal of the law. At
the same time, if It were to be done over
again, the people of Colorado would de
feat woman suffrage by an overwhelming
majority "
In Colorado all the four women aittlng In
the legislature of 1910-1W1 actually voted
lor a most vile race-track gambling bill,
by their votes and example greatly aid
ing Its passage by the legislature. Gov
ernor Shafroth promptly vetoed the bill
and administered thia seathlng rebuke
to the women In his veto message :
"If this bill became a law, the finger
of scorn and ridicule would ever after
be pointed at th Influence 'of woman's
franchise In state affairs."
