WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

The question of giving women the bal
lot is now fairly before the legislature.
Its advocates have had public hearings,
the last before the Legislative committee.
Now comes the important query, what
will the legislature do with it?
In our judgment the proper course to
be pursued is to submit the question to
the people in due form and let them vote
upon it next September. 1t is commended
by the friends of female suffrage that there
is q popular majority of the voters in the
State for it. That they have reason to be-
lieve their cause has advanced very large
" in public sentiment is true. Whether
it has attained sufficient strength to
receive the support necessary to es-
tablish il in the constitution can only be
proved by an actual vote of the people.
1t is said by some that the question had
better be deferred until public sentiment
is ripper, but if the leading friends of the
movement ask the privilege of taking the
risk of success or defeat now, it seems to
us they should be permitted to try their
fortune. They ought to understand their
strength and prospects in a trial before
the people better than others who have
not made the subject study. That they
are anxious for the test argues ut least
confidence in their cause.
We hope the legislature will not only
submit the question to the people, but do
it with unanimity, as an evidence that
they are willing to have the question fair
ly settled by the voters. There has been
in times past Il disposition to treat.this
question rs one unworthy the attention OF
legislators, but since it became an element
in our last Presidential campaign, and is
agitated in Congress and in every State
of the Union, having for its avowed advo-
Gates some of our most distinguished
statesmen, il is not a matter to be turned
out of doors by legislatures with ridicule
or Indifference.
1t should be understood that the sub

The high price of iron and the depres-
sion Of the iron business in England is
creating quite an interest in the business
in this State. If the prospect continues
favorable there will be an increase Of the
iron business in Maine that will make an
important item in our industries. The
eastern part Of the State has an abundance
of good ore. requiring only remunera-
tive market to bring it out for use We
cannot however expect to compete sue
cessfully with Pennsylvania where mines
of iron and the coal used in smelling lie
side by side.

hitting the question to the people whcth'
CT the women OF the State shall have the
right to vote is different question from
that of the right itself. Members may
with propriety vote to submit the ques-
ton to the people, who are not believers
themselves in woman suffrage. \ men,
Der may without inconsistency vote to-
morrow for submission of the question,
and next September vote against giving
women the ballot By voting for submits
sion he only manifests willingness to al
low the question to SO to the people, who
are really the proper tribunal to decide it.
If he feels convinced that women ought
not to vote he will have his opportunity to
cast his vote against them next Septem-
Der, tho same as his neighbors and con-
stituents who think as he does. The sole
question for the legislature to consider is
whether the people shall be allowed to
vote on woman suffrage, and on that we
trust it will be unit for submission.
What the voters will do with it is not for
the Legislature to consider. II they are
in favor of it they ought to have the
chance to vote it up; if against it they
can vote it down. Let the legislature
submit it with the largest liberality of
spirit, showing to the other sex gener-
Gus regard for the claim which they pre-
sent, and willingness that the right to
the ballot claimed shall have fair field to
prove itself and win success if it can.
