THE PART WOMEN ARE TO BEAR IN
THE REFORMS OF THE DAY.

} When women become responsible
human beings, when their lives .do.not
run in the present narrow cltannels,'
wheh they are not slegislated for, as are
idiots and minors. when at last It is
conceded that they may possibly know
how and be able to direct tAeir own
affairs; when, with the Ballot in their
hands, they are compelled to think, and
by thinking they broaden into active
and healthy life, with their quick SYM
pathies and their keen intuitions, they
cannot but take prominent part i'll all
the reforms of the day. -" u
To-day, ,oahout the advantages which
" equality before the law" will give her,
woman is the g backbone" of all relig-
ious organizations, What would any
church be, deprived of the sympathy
and industrious efforts of the women
who form part and usually q majority
of its membersO and prominent in the
temperance reform, and in all charita-
BILE deeds and works.
With the bollot, she will by-and-by
have voice in reforming the politics of
the country, and stanlin,s, side by side
with the noble men of tho nation. She
will demand honesty in the officers
elected to administer its financial affairs.
She will help to curb and limit the pow
ers of the great monopolies, and having
known oppression, she will know how
to legislate against it. 'e5'.rt
AS women are circumstanced at pres
emit, few have the means financially, for
any great work, either of charity or re-
form. Few have the power to build
houses of refuge, or homes in which can
be sheltered those whom age, poverty,
orphanage or misfortune have rendered
homeless; because only in exceptional
cases is she properly compensated for
her work, so that by accumulation she
can afford large charities, and in still
| more exceptional cases, has she by in
heritance the means of such work at
her command. But with their "wid-
ows mites" their many Titles combined
together, women have been, and are
still doing miracles in works of patriot
ism, charity and general reformation.
With the power in her hand which
the ballot will in the near future give
her, we may expect that every good
cause will receive additional impetus
from her presence, and in every work
which demands patriotism and genuine
devotion to her God and her country,
she will be found in the van, cheering
and comforting the weak, urging the
tagging and nobly doing her equal work
with her brother in the field of life.
