what is known as the Congressional en-

upon by the House Judiciary Commit
tee, and will be pressed through Con-

This measure extends the operation of
the act Of last session to the cities of small
er size, and is really intended in its de-
tails to have effect on every election
precinct in the country, while the former
Law seemed intended more especially for
the alleged Capitalization frauds in nor
thern cities. The new bill looks to the
supervision Of the colored vote In the
South. 1t also remedies many of the
defects discovered in the practical work

Men and Women Advocates.

Now-a-days it is the fashion to praise
the brave and good men who come for
ward to the support of woman suffrage
above the women who stand with them
shoulder to shoulder. We hear it said
that men have apprehended the situa-
ton better, and even that they have
shown more tact and delicacy. John
Stuart Mill, Robert Collyer, George
William Curtis, LabOulaye, Ernest La
Gouve, Salvatore MOrelli, and many
others, certainly deserve all the compli-
ments that can be paid them; but it is
easy to see why they occupy position
of greater dignity than some of the
women who are working towards the
same end. 1t takes a person OF the no
| blest instincts and broadest sense OF
Justice to advocate the cause of an Op-
pressed class to which he or she does not
| belong. Men who have espoused the
rights of women occupy an elevated,
outside DOsition from whence they can
survey the whole field. They sit in the
/ iudicial seat while women make the
Dlea. The women, destitute of imple-
ments, are trying to set themselves free
I from the inside. The men, with imple-
ments furnished them by freedom, are
endeavoring to help their sisters from
the outside. Women learn the wrongs
of their sex more through the heart than
the head; men apprehend them alone
through the intellect, and bring a cooler
and more logical temper to the appre-
| hension. Most of the speeches made by
women i'm their own behalf are weighted
with feeling They are in too great haste
and stress of eagerness to get their rights
/ to be exact and nice in the choice of ar
guments. They tell what they, them
No
/ furnish, however incOmpletely, the ele-
ments of vital heat, while the men adj
vOcates supply light. Mrs. Elizabeth
/ Cady Stanton in this country, and
Frances Power CObbe in England, are
the only women who, by reason OF the
highest logical faculty, have as yet
shown themselves capable Of giving
statements of the whole question as
close and convincing as those furnished
by John Stuart Mill and Laboulaye
Our feeling towards the men who have
come to our aid is not a cold and feeble
emotion, but the very enthusiasm o
gratitude. We feel that they are for III
because, by their very mental and mora
constitution, they cannot be against us
They were born to the paladinship, ant
such insignia of natures nobility Is be
, yond praise.
Although the women advocates ar
working for themselves, and at the firs
blush seem TO stand lower than thes
men, who from pure love of truth an
: justice have come to the front; still, i
broader sense, there is no conflict o
division of interest. Men and wome
together in this cause are doing wOr
I for humanity, one and indivisible, an
: 1t is always well to keep this fact prom
inently before the mind of the world.

son on the 4th and 5th, and joined Us
yesterday at Port Gamble, where she
lectured in the evening. Port Gamble
is one of the many numbering establish
ments on the Sound, of which the reader
may get a very accurate idea from the
description given by Captain Crandall
in the OregoRidn some time since; only
the Captain didn't tell that mans idea
that he must support woman is practic-
ally and not theoretically considered
here. The wives of the mill men live in
houses by themselves and the men take
their meals at the company's cook
house, leaving the women nothing to do
but keep their homes. Yet these women
are strong sufIragists, who with one ac-
cord agree with the slave Tom, that
they "would like to have a little more
that is their own and Il little less that is
masters"
Tonight we join the King county del
egates to the Woman Suffrage Conven-
tion, and will proceed to Olympia to fin
ish the work inaugurated there some
two weeks since.

experience would bring most of them to
their senses"
''Then, why is it that so many of them
are ready TO try the experiment over
again?"
at is simply because they have moth
ing else to do. While society makes no
demand upon man, never saying he
must or must not marry, it says patron
izingly to all women, you must marry!
Marriage is your normal sphere > and
woman, finding nothing else to do,
blindly and ignorantly takes charge of a
man, who thinks Ire is going to support
herr and he does-generally over the
wash-tub and cook stove, from which
narrow sphere she must not bulge, or all
the Grundy's of both sexes will cry out
for shame.'n

HORACE GREELLY'S LIBERALIIN.-
We take pleasure i'm copying the follow
ing generous words from the New York
TjsiJIoae OF Oct. 1lth; this Is the true
Ever since the Tribune office was
burnt out, in 1915, we have Kept always
ON hand duplicates of everything needed
for the publication Of the paper, forming
i'm fact a complete duplicate office. Mr..
Thomas y. Rocker, our foreman, yes
terday telegraphed, on behalf of the As
ISOLATION, to Mr.. Sidney Howard Gay,
Managing EditOrof the Chicago Tribune,
nlacing this office at his instant disposal
for the use of the Chicago Tribune,
or anv other Chicago newspaper. AZ
the time of our own great calamity,
twentv-six years ago, the prompt aid OF
neiphbors was so efficiently rendered
that we did not miss the publication a
single regular issue; nor have we missed
one since. We have needed, in a quar-
ter of a century, to call, just once, on a
neirhbor, for press-work; but we have
always remembered the aid OF lSi0 and
held ourselves ready to give hel p wher-
ever il was needed. Many others, nc
doubt, are ready To do the same to the
extent of their ability; and trom all We
invoke the speedicst assistance lol
stricken Chicago.
