COMMERCIALLY.

The New York Times, in recent edi-
torial relative to the Tweed infamy,
offers the fallen Tammany chief the use
of itseolumns for the purpose ofunearth-
ing the multitude who are equal to him
self in moral turpitude, that he may not
alone suffer the consequences of a guilt
in which he had many aceomplices.
The words of the Times contain the
ring of the true metal. But suppose
the editor of the Times were q woman,
and that woman should dare, in the
conscientious discharge of her duty, to
utter the same sentiments, actuated by
precisely the same motives? Then, as
everybody knows, puritanieal vail of
self righteous horror would go forth
from the same universal public press
which lauds man for discharging his
high duty as a citizen and voter, and
condemns the lawful recognition of the
same act in a woman as n high crime
and misdemeanor.-
Who accuses the Times of affiliation
with Tweed's misdeeds because that
able journal is magnanimous enough to
be just to the erring? Yet this is pre-
cisely what the Oregonian and hide

WOMAN SUFFRAGE IN CONNECT.
CUT.


The Woman Suffrage Association of
Connecticut held its annual Convention
in Hartford recently, Isabella Beecher
Hooker presiding.
Prayer was offered by Rev. Olympia
Brown.
A letter was read from Rev. Mrs.
Celia Burleigh, stating that the condi-
tiOn OF her health rendered 1t impossible
for her to be present. The letter spoke
of Miss Anthony as follows: 81 believe
no one more fully appreciates Miss An
thony than myself, whether the esti-
mate be of her public work or of her pri-
vate character rs a woman. She, more
than any else, except my dear husband,
was instrumental in bringing me into
my public work, and l have not only
profound respect, but personal aflec-
tion for her. very much wish that 1
might meet her at the convention and
hear the story of her trial"
A letter was then read from Hon.
Thomas NJ. Waller, stating that owing
to an engagement at court he could not
be present. He did not think it wise
for the association to elect to any of its
offices any person who suffered the repu-
tation of being politician and feared
that, notwithstanding all his efforts to the
contrary, he was getting such reputa-
ton. He was in favor of women voting
if they wanted TO, and in favor OF giving
them an opportunity to show their de-
sire to do so, or not to do so, by giving
them the right to DO so. He was i'm
favor of the agitation in which the asso-
citation was engaged. He declined to be
an officer of the association because he
thought he could be of more service TO
the cause as an outsider.
Miss +. Ellen Burr, the Secretary,
read the annual report, in which refer
ence was made to the organization of
the society in Hartford four years ago.
Mrs. Hooker was acknowledged as the
prime mover in this successful organi-
zation. To Mrs. Stanton and Miss An
thony was due the honor of holding the
first Woman Suffrage meeting in the
State. Women have registered in
various parts of the State and presented
protests against taxation. Sixteen
women in Hartford and eighteen in
Willimantic registered last spring.
The Misses Smith, of Glastonbury, i'm
this State. have within few weeks ut
terly refused TO pay taxes. The collec-
tor has called several times and returned
empty-handed every time. Those
women are the largest taxpayers in.
their district. Woman Suffragists have
gained decided advantage in having
their eyes open TO the uselessness of de
pending on party promises. At the last
annual meeting the advocates of the
cause were blowing trumpets for Grant
and the Republican party. The prom
ises held out by Republicans to Woman
Suffragists having proved worthless, they
will know how 10 take the promises of
any political party in future. 1t is an
advantage to know on just what ground
we stand. Political parties are treachcr-
Gus, Republican or Democratic. They
work for party and not for principle.
Mrs. Hooker delivered fine address,
AZ the beginning she congratulated her.

vancing public opinion in favor Of the

ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS.

j. ID. Applegate, Linkville, writes:
"Your stand for the rights of the op-
pressed is worthy of abundant success.
like your paper better every day. Will
be glad TO assist all in my limited
power to increase its circulation. Poll
tics of to-day, in their deformed condi-
tion, certainly argue strongly against
our present system and demand n radi-
cal change. Whether Woman Suffrage
is the needed cure or not am anxious
to know" There is but one way to solve
that problem, friend, and that way is
plain. Let the people try it and see
Thanks for remittance of five dollars,

Mrs. Clark, Marysville, Cal, writes:
Enclosed find six dollars for two new
subscribers. If women would only try
it would be so easy for each one to send
you one name with the cash rs a New
Years gift, accompanied by their own
renewals" Words and deeds like the
above are lamps to light our feet along
the rugged roads of journalism. May
every man and woman who are inter
ested in the cause of Human Freedom
resolve to thus assist us and we should
soon be placed beyond the worry of
earking financial care.
NJ. o. B., Seattle: Will reprint the
document in the NEW NORTHWEST il
you wish, filling your order for as many
copies of the paper containing it as YOU
may wish TO order for 81 90 per hum
dred. This is the cheapest way to get
it circulated. Besides,we do not do PAM
phlet work in the Office.
Mrs. +. Rees, Walla Walla, in renew
ing her subscription, writes: 81 do not
think l could do without the NEW
NORTHWEST. My entire sympathy is
with you in the noble work you are so
bravely pursuing"
Mrs. +. A. c., Nehalem: Are unable

WOMAN SUFFRAGE ASSOCIATION.

The National Woman Suffrage Asso-
citation will hold its semi-annual conven-
ton in Lincoln Hall, Washington, Jam
uary 10 and l6, 1874.
The call is signed by Susan b. An
thony, President, and Elizabeth Cady
Stanton, Chairman of the Executive
Committee. In making this call they
eloquently say: "This is the sixth con-
vention held in successive years under
the shadow of our National Capitol, to
be continued until woman's exact and
permanent political equality is recog-
nized over our whole broad land. Never
in the history of our movement have
more eventful times and important
questions called us together. Within
the last year the great underlying prin-
ciple of our republican Institutions
self-government, through personal rep
resentation, recognized by the Colonies
in the act of separation from Great
Britain, and re-afiirmed at the adoption
Of our National Constitution-has been
violated for all American citizens in the
person of Susan Il. Anthony-a native
born citizen Of the United States-tried
and convicted as a felon, for having
dared, by voting, TO exercise her inalien-
able right of personal representation;
tiled and convicted, too, while denied
the protecting power of that associate
right held sacred by freemen-the right
Of trial by jury-a right recognized and
secured to all our citizens, in two dis
tinct articles OF the National Constitu-
tion. A Convention, this winter, at the
seat of Government, to re-examine the
fundamental principles of Republican
Government, and to declare anew the
constitutional rights of all citizens, is
needed as protest against the Legisla-
tive, Executive and Judicial corruption
and assumption that to-day threaten
the liberties of the American people,"
Those croaking politicians of the eff
fete order who vainly imagine that our
cause has no political strength, will
please take notice that among the
speakers announced are Henry r. Sell
den, Charles Sumner, Benjamin f. But
Ter, John Van Voorhis, Henry Wilson,
Parker Pillsbury, Wendell Phillips,
Frederick Douglass, Gerrit Smith, and
many Others, while prominentamong the
women are the names of Ernestine L.
Rose, Susan b. Anthony, Isabella
Beecher Hooker, Lucretia Mott, Matilda
JOslyn Gage, Phoebe Couzens, Eliza
beth Cady Stanton and Olympia
Brown.
If it were not for the chronic impeeu-
mostly of newspaper publishers we
should be able to make up our report of
the meeting from personal observation
and experience. We respectfully ac-
knowledge the receipt of official invita-
/ ton to attend.
