mean lack of discipline; but it can mean im patience of being made a mere cog in a political machine.
What attitude will the legislature, the new, - yOuilg legislature of 1911 take towards the ques tion of giving women direct representation in the law-makiiig body of our state ? Will the old atti tuJe, the prejudiced attitude be modified by the men who have their faces turned to the future? Do these younger men know the facts of the present day, the facts as to the women who are out in the world of work, the facts as to the bearing of law rpon the women in the home, do they realize that in a republic all classes must be encouraged to think for themselves, and to solve their own problems? If they do, they will do- mand that there be a full and free discussion of woman suffrage on the floor of the Senate ~nd the Assc;..bly. .
Towards this new legislature women will hold an attitude of hope, so long as there is room for hcpe, and always an attitude of determination, for we are convinced that men alone cannot solve th~ problem of our modern civilization. We know that by their very nature and training they will over-emphasize one side of life, just as women, should they alone attempt law-making. would over-emphasize the opposite side of life. We recognize that the good of society demands a compromise and a balance between the two points f view.
So convinced are women of all this that their litical attitude is inspired by a determination rid the legislature, whenever opportunity offers. f men who interpret the evolution of government ~1 terms of narrow sex bias.
THE SITUATION.
A bill to give women the suffrage in New York
tate was introduced in the State Senate on the
urth of this January, by Senator Newcomb. of
. ew York City. It was referred to theJudiciary Coi inhittee. From the vote of last year we know that Senators Bavne. Stillwell and Newconib are in f.~vor of reporting the bill. Senators Hinman, Wair~wright, Coates. were opposed to us last year. Senators McClelland, Black, Griffin, Ferris, Fiero and iBurd are new and unrecorded members.
Tli~z chairman of the Assembly Judiciary Corn- ittc~, Mr. A. J. Levy, has expressed himself favor~hly in regard to the Woman Suffrage Bill, and w~tlr him stand Assemblym n J. Levy, Harold Spielh~erg and John L. Sullivan. Opposed to us are .~ssernblynl~.n Mark Goldbersr. Godfried Wend~. Peter McEllicott, Harold Hinman and C. Phillios. It has not been possible as yet to learn v~yhat stand the new members, Assembly men Edward Terry, Ashton Parker, W. R. Herrick and Louis Goldstein, will take in regard to the bill.
Th.~ l\Tational Council of Women Voters has concluded its first annual conference at
acoma. This is the first time in the history of the woman suffrage movement that a body of enfranchised women has met to extend help to their sisters who are without the vote. The credit of calling this splendid conference is due to Governor Brady of Idaho.
The result of the conference is all that could be expected. The campaign carried out by the women cf the State of Washington in gaining the vote is recommended as the national plan. A publicity bureau was organized which will send out speakers to all legislative hearings when so requested and an international delegate was .ppointed.
Governor Brady has announced his intention of aking a- tour of the entire ~~~~Lofoipg. abroad in the interests of woman suffrage.
From England comes-the sad news that another splendid woman has laid down her life for the cause of woman suffrage. Two weeks ago the world was shocked to learn of the death of Mrs. Mary Clark. a sister of Mrs. Pankhurst, two days after her release from Halloway jail. Now we hear that Miss Henna Leach Williams. ~wiio -took active part in the deputations of November 18, has died as the result of the brutal treatment which she received on that day.
