Hdmen t mes there , was r.o thought of
tightening the garments at the waist
anil preventing proper comfort. The
Laws for Women
and Laws for
the Workingmen
One of the arguments against equal
suffrage runs like this:
The . working women of the country,
through their oig.mlzationa and their
friends, aro asking for laws limiting
working hours and conditions of pervlec
for their special protection. It is said
thut these things arc favors granted to
a . privileged class. Hut If women de
mand the ballot and thereby put them
selves on an equality before the law,
they will forfeit their right to have
laws passed for their special protection.
This argument Involves a total misun
derstanding of the purpose of all such
laws. They aro not fuvors to the claps
affected by them. They arc passed in
the exercise of what la called the "police
power" of tho state, which Is grounded
on the Idea that such laws are for the
public, welfare, and are not favor to a
special class.
Ho It has. In modern tin!"s, been recog
nized aa quite proper to pass sueh laws
for the benefit- of workingmen, n4 be
cause they arc entitled to favors, hut be
cause It Is to the highest interest of
society that they should be protected
against Injustice or Injurious conditions.
JUany states In the union have passed
workmen's compensation laws, and we in
Nebraska arc considering one. The only
objection to it Is that it Is inadequate,
not that such laws should not be con
ridered. Women, then, would not forfeit theb.
right to have laws passed for th'lr pro
tection, in tlic matter of hours of labor
and conditions of service, but wou'd navo
the same right to sk for them as tiny
have now. The only diffeten-e is that
they would have a belter prospect of
getting them more promptly and In fuller
measure.
Would it J better to take the vote
away from the workingmen und let them
depend on tho generosity of their employ
ers to vote laws for the benefit and pro
tection or workingmen? It would lie Just
as logical to aay that workingmen, by
having the ballot, have forfeited their
right to have lawa passed fur their pro
tection. But who expects to find logic in an
anti-suffrage argument?
would he uny bitt r. Therefore we v olid i ttfht waist Is a product f clvll'z.ation

Misa Heirn Todd of California, who
will be In Omaha, Monday, was one of
the euffragiata to appear last winter rt
the hearing before the ra'es committee t school board
of the house of representatives when the
suffrage committee asked for a special
lommittee on woman suffrage in the
house. In her statement before the rules
committee Miss Todd said In part:
"My conversion to suffrage came
through six years of work as factory in
spector In Illinois. 1 have always thought
that the reason there could be tueh a
thing aa a woman who was an antl ws
simply that the screen of ignorance and
Sixh-They must be ready and willing
to serve on Juries, or Hi any other public
capacity where ihey may be needed.
While that is not now a part of the law.
It must necessarily follow as a logical
sequence, to their public duties, If th-y
are to do all in their power to make their
votes ffeetle.
S. If there U any plac In
civic affairs where ne need tho right
kind of men to manage well, and with
high ideals, it Is In our public schools,
One of the meas
urements to which
I refer concerns the
length of the waves
of ether which pro
duce the phenomena
known as X-rays.
.Kverybody la aware that the X-ray have
the power of passing through sold bodies
'that are completely opaque to light
fs!Ji w
we
an
we
rays we can trace them down to one
-'.'Aoo tli of an inch.
Arrived at that polm' In our descent,
suddenly find yawnl-ig beneath us
abyss of terrific depth, over which
bing like a climber ho has descended a
rope to Its very end anj yet cannot even
gliinp-e the bottom.
We let go the rope that has borne us
mrely thus frtr, and, with a cold chill at
the pit of our stomach, feel ourselves
dropping with only our faith in science to
assure us that we shall 1 buoyed up In
safety at the end of our plunge.
We find the void a thousand times
deeper than the chasnu we had already
descf nded, and when wh reach our destln
lition, even the Imagination la cowed!
The X-ray wave is only one 'Jio,KX.,aiot h
of an Inch in length!
lo you get any meaning from that
statement? l-et ua look at It In this way:
The length of an X-ray wave Is lss In
comparison with an-lncd than an Inch Is
In comparison to tho iilidtiiice from New
York to the North role!
And yet science hti sue( ceded In ineaf
tring Jt, If not with absolute certainty, at
leant with n very nlgli degree of prob
ability. And what la now only prob
ability will become certainly tomoirow.
The leiifth of an X-ray wave compared
with that of on avermjn wave of visible
light Is about ua one inrii to ono mile.
Hut this Is not the bottom of the well
of littleness by any means. Where that
bottom la we do not know. Hut certainly
tho dlamrter of the corpus' les of which
atomn are composed Is far less than the
length of one of these little waves, and
no one can bo sure that some time we
may not know Just how blg-or little a
corpuscle is. Hut will w be at the bot
tom even then?
Also the antl suff i agists enys that if
women had the vote they would sell It
and goodness knows If they do I hoe
they will get n good price, because women
need money more than men, for they have
to have pretty clothes, or else tho men
will not love them.
My Aunt Maria Is an antl-suffraglsts
and she told me what they believe, and
she said: "My child, when you grow up
you must alwaya depend on the mighty
nii)sculliie Intellect, and let your husband
represent you at the polls," and I said:
' 'lut what If I don't have the luck to
catch a husband, who will represent me
then?" And she said: "Hun away little
girl, a ml play."
Aiitt-suffriiglFla arr nls lr.dhs who hire
a hall nnd go tround telling women that
th-y must stay at home, and that a
woman should never bo seen outside of
the home. They gay that It makes them
loel perfectly dreadful to raise their voice
In public nnd have their names and pic
tures In the paper, but they feel It Is
their duty to do so. Oh. how noble and
self-aaerlflelng an antl-suffragist Is.
Antl-auffraglsta are also very modest.
iney think It la awful bold for a woman
I" go right up to the voting booth and
iut in her ballot Just like she was mall
Ing a letter, but that It la nice, nnd
sweet, and womanly for a woman to
Jolly a man, and flirt with him, and make
eye at him to get him to vote for her.
They say why should a woman vote
when ahe. can lobby, especially If ahe'a
got nice white shoulders and soft squeeze-
I able hands. Thoy aay that women should
get what they want through woman's
sacred Influence, but my mother aaya
that ahe thinks a club Is more decent.
Also, It Is quicker and aurer.
I asked .my Aunt Maria, why,, If she
didn't want to vote she Just wouldn't
vote, and she said that it was Just awful
tho way children were raised In this day,
und that suffrage was breaking up the
home. Also she aald that the country
would go lo the dogs If women voted,
and I asked her why a nice Indy like
my leacher, who tells ua we must love
our country, nnd die for our flag, would
hurt the country any more lhan some
dirty tramps I saw at the voting booths,
and she said that there were things I
couldn't understand. Well, there are.
Antl-auffraglsta are all old ladlea or
ladles who think old. I asked my mother
why they were all old. and she said
It In a well known fact that a, woman
can't change her opinions after she gels
40 years old.
We should all respect the aged.

Also, with the cutlclo knife, scrape tho
surface of the nail down the middle.
This cutting out the V and thlnolng tho

by means of the stick and a tiny bit of
