The New Election Methods.

Donnelly is in Washington trying to
tie his way into congress over Wash
burns three thousand majority.
Since the Democrats have stolen
Maine, they may not hesitate TO ad-
nit Donnelly, and so count Minnesota
with its 10000 Republican majority,
as a Democratic State in the event of
the Presidential election going into
the House. The votes cast at an cleo
ton have nothing to do with it, it is
the fellows who count the vote, and
the body which admits the candidate
who settle the business.

that the time may cnme ere long when
all intelligent men and women will
choose life mates deliberately, thought

can "put asunder what God hath thus
Joined together" Then we may expect

STATE LEGISLATURES.
The question may arise in some
minds, "If the enfranchisement Of
woman should i'm Justice be settled by
national legislation, why petition the
State Legislature ?" For this reason:
when a resolution in favor Of a measure
passes a State Legislature, the Senators
and Representatives of that State IN
Congress are thereby instructed as to
their votes on that particular measure
wheH it comes mp for action, and, on
The other hand, the people Of a State are
reused TO thought on questions under
debate in their own Legislatures.
Again, the only way a disfrauchised
class can bring their wrongs before their
rulers Is through petitions; and to Sc
cure these, agitation and discussion are
necessary to attract popular considera-
ton. Hence We ask you TO circulate the
state, as well a. the national petitions,
IN every school district.
II we had the power to galvaniza All
women into as much zeal for their own
freedom and development as they now
manifest in fairs, temperance associa-
tons, foreign missions, church build
ing, decoration aud donation parties.
our cause would speedily triumph.
Women are not idle, but many spend
their best forces in dress, dinners, fancy
work and social conversation, and in
the froth Of literature, politics and re-
hgion, without ever sounding the depths
Of those principles on which society
rests. The wTaugling Of parties and
secis may not concern woman; but the
vital facts Of government, the limits Of
state aud church authority, should be
considered within the sphere Of her in
terests and mpreheusiou. Instead Of
clubs OF Greek art, heather mythology, I
and microscopic Investigations, Woman /
Suiirage associations should be formed I
IN every town, county and State in the I
nation y sense Of Individual freedom,
the liberty TO think and act within the
same limits prescribed to those in au-
thOuty, complete equality with those
around u.s. give the strongest impulses
In the development Of a noble eharac-
ter. When we remember that our
present demand for national legislation
IN Womau'~ political status involves the
same principle thar has kept up a con-
iiuual conflict in this nation for a cen
,nry, the highest motives Of patriotism
should add zeal TO our efforts for self
protection. IL every woman, however
humble, would bear ia mind that iuius-
lice TO her i injustice to all; that to ac-
luiesee in the sacrifice Of one individual
right is step toward the downfall Of
he republic, new sense Of personal
iignity and responsibility would inspire (
~ with greater earnestuess in advOcat- {
ng their own acknowledgements.

A Child Wife.

last week one Of the daily papers an
nouncrd th@ marriage Of a girl thirteen
years uf age \ boy could not be mar
riel al tIut age Without eiicitiug sVm-
pathy aud comment; therefore we shall
make defense for the victimized 0irL
Guild. A. 90 duplicates the highest
authority in the most atrOcious crime
that civilized society could, by c0nI-
mittiug, prove its own barbarism, our
censure shall be equally deep aud
strong IL marriage and motherhood
were not national necessity, there
might be slu.e palliative circumstance;
but, since they are, how shall we name
the crime that would destroy both ?
The law should be the crystaHiZed
essence of wIsdom-a sure index to lead
the people aright-yet in this instance
il has proven its own imbecility beyond
the possibility Of a doubt; proven that
IL is as reckless, uniufOrmed, ignorant,
As the most thnughtless Guild in the
lowest siums OF our great city. If it
were possible for all the girls Of the
United States to be married at thirteen
years OF age, for the next hundred
years, there would not be pisny with
sufficient intellect To tell the tale Of the
uati0n's decay. The minister who
would step down from his sacred calling
TO sanclinn the mOckery of such "A
marriage contract, should, by All the
holy ties That bind humanity, nave
sudden awakening to the sense of the
sacrifice he is making. IL we could, we
would, together with the NJ. DIS who
have said along the past ages that
women mature sooner than men, burn
them at the stake As man burns his
last years stubble, that he may have
a clean field for "A new crop. We should
quiet our nerves by remembering how
calmly these human vampires have
aided the sure sacrifice of throngs Of
unsuspecting young girls, Of twelve and
fifteen years OF age; and from out the
burning ashes We should be quite sure
that no little imps would spring tOcurse
the earth with inchpacitated immatur-
ity Yes, we would gladly light the
torch that would send the lurid
flames to high Heaven, aud by the
broad glare write IN the hearts OF an
aroused people, Marriage and Mother
