Sentinel of March 4, 1882. -
We stated some time ago that the senate
had appointed select committee to iayes
igate-not the liquor traffic-but the old
women who have for years been ciamoring
for '.women's" rights and temperance. The
democratic senator's, with few exceptions.
voted aga nst, and republicans. with few
exceptions, for appointing such a commit
tee. We were afterwards told that, that
had been done merely to give Senator Lap
ham q craftsmanship and to his soma clerk
ship. Whilst that may be true, for both
father and son have been provided for, old
Lapham getting his chairmanship and
young Lapham his elerkship, it cannot be
denie3 that the fanatics have been once
more successful.
Ever since the vote in the senate we
have expected that some similar move
would be made in the house-and in that
we were not mistaken. Last Saturday Mr.
Reed, of Maine, of tn committee on rules,
offered the following resolution:
gag Thatia select committee of nine members
be appointed, to whom shall be referred all
petitions. bills and resolves asking for the
extension of suffrage to women or he re-
movals of their disabilities.
After some remarks in opposition to the
resolution :. by the democrats Holman,
Townsend, McMillin and Springer, Mr..
Atkins, of Tennessee, called for the yeas
and nays with the following result: S
