those who are expecting to teach fall terms

Through little Misunderstanding among
those who have the matter in charge, an err
roneous call has been made for teachers con-
vontion to be held at Decatur August 9th, 2Sth
and Goth. II Is now thought expedient to post
pone this convention. as the superintendent of

and prepare to attend the Institute.

Giles b. Stebbins, OF Detroit spoke at School

At woman suffrage meeting in Benton
Harbor last week MISS Hindman, OF Pittsburg,
addressed the audience, and the Palladium
speaks in the highest terms Of her lecture
MISS Matte Strickland OF st. Johns, daughter
of Hon. Randolph Strickland, addressed q
large audience recently at Laingsburg upon the
woman suffrage question. She also addressed
q meeting at Mason last week on the same sub

The friends Of woman suffrage IN Michigan
are growing more numerous. and the cause
gaming new advocates as the election approach
es. We have heard several say they would
vote for it, who, not many months ago, we're
bitterly opposed to the doctrine.-Berren Co.
Record.
The serious view which the women Of Michi-
gan take of the question at issue in This State
is thus expressed by one Of the active workers
for Suffrage: |" look upon the months that
intervene between now and November as the
most important Of all the months upon which
any great cause ever waited. How few see
what great good for the race is enwrapped In
this cause In these months"
We attended meeting of the Woman's Suf-
frage Association, at Breedsville, on the 9th.
and was highly entertained Their paper, the
" Woman's Advocate " was well edited. the
reading by the young ladies was good, and their
selections choice and appropriate for the occa-
sion ASIDE from the cause, the literary exer-
cises should bring out full house. Their next
meeting is on the 23d.-Bangor Reflector.
Women ought not to be less interested in
good government than men. Mothers ought
to take as deep an interest as fathers In secur-
ing laws that shall lesson, to their children, tho
temptations that surround them, leading to a
life Of immortality and crime. The woman who
says she doesn't care to vote virtually says she
is Indifferent to the highest interest OF her
children and the world around her. She vrtu-
ally SAYS she doesn't care whether or not a
brothel is located on every street corner in
Grand Rapids, or dram shop IN every base
ment, or gambling hell over every store. 1t
is high time that these "womanly" women
realized that their indifference as to how che
world is governed is as great a crime in them
as all admit it to be in men.-Grand Rapids

LITTLE PRAIRIE RoSDE, August lit

LITTLE PRAIRIE RoSDE, August 18th.
Editor TRUE NoRTHERNER:
After riding leisurely across Little Prai-
RE Ronde last Saturday, my attention was at
tracted by several teams drawn up in front OF
little white school-house. " A woman's
rigbs meeting" was the answer to my ques-
ton We entered, finding the house nearly
flied with an assemblage OF men and women,
quiet and expectant and, according to all ap-
pearances, we'll representing the intelligence OF
this community. The object OF the meeting
was the organizing of a Suffrage Association
for the town OF Volinia. A strong argument
in favor Of the subject to be discussed was
presented by the walls gracefully decorated
with evergreens, by the beautiful flowers, which
adorned the desk in graceful arrangement, and
floor scrupulously clean.
Shortly after our entrance the meeting was
called to order, and Mr.. r. Anderson elected
chairman. After song by the choir, c. Michi-
gan my Mchigan'D Miss Rhoda Munger de-
livered a very interesting address. The sympa-
thetlc voice and happy manner OF the speaker
could not fail to impress her audience favorably,
and it appears that her common sense argu-
ments, as we'll as her touches Of humorous
sarcasm, were thoroughly appreciated. The
address was followed by music and the reading
OF Henry B. Blackwell's paper on Woman
Suffrage 4 Political Reform" The report OF
the committee on Constitution was next in
order, and the names OF 81 persons as members
of the associ alton were procured.
The following officers were elected. Mr..
Milton j. Gard, President Mrs. A. L. Hath
away and Mrs. N. S. Thomas, Vice Presidents ;
MISS Ella Huyck, Secretary Mrs. Elias Morris,
Treasurer.
speech by Mrs. A. 5. Hathaway occupied
the remainder OF the time. She spoke OF the
ballot Goth as right and as a duty. The right
OF woman to vote as q matter OF justice gen.
orally admitted, yet denied on the ground OF
expediency. The presumption should always
be in favor of liberty and impartiality, unless
there are strong and potent reasons to the con-
trary. What are the strong and potent reasons
which should exclude woman from the govern
ment Several objections were examined at
length, chiefly the neglect OF home argument
and the alleged demoralzing effect OF the bal
lot. Finally. a reference to the Wyoming ex-
pertinent, -Governor Campbells and General
Edward NJ. Lees testimony, in addition to
Judge Kingman's.
Contributions OF money we're called for and
recorded, and the society adjourned until Sat-
urday evening, August Goth. Music marked
the close, as we'll as the opening Of the meet
ing, which was characterized by general good
feeling throughout. We hardly realized that
we had attended political meeting. Nor could
we refrain from asking the question. why our
election days might not be like this, our court
rooms made comfortable and pleasant by the
presence OF our mothers and sisters, extending
their homo influence to the now much abused
haunts Of public life. Visitor.
