Mrs Elizabeth. Cady Stanton and Miss Susan B.

an address to the members Of that organization
discussing what political action should be taken by

to the proh1bitionists, for them to make woman
suffrage tail to their kite is to defy the laws OF

suffrage, but woman suffrage is the only power by
which prohibition would be made possible. They
say that ''if Cleveland is elected by the aid OF

BE THINKS THE REPUBLICANS WILL WIN, But DOES
NOT THINK THE ELECTION Is SETTLED YET.
Senator Plumb, OF Kansas returned to the city
to-day from North Carolina, where he went with
Col Canaday, sergeant-atarms OF the senate, to be
present at the state republican convention. STAR
reporter to-day asked the Senatori II he thought the
republicans would carry North Carolina.
"Oh, it's hard to TELL" he replied 81 talked with
republicans down there. and all OF them speak
hopefully, but | think it's doubtful, because the
counting machinery Is against us, and the demo-
Gratis wouldn't let the republicans have the state II
they won It, Still, our friends seem to feel quite
confident"
With regard to the national outlook Senator
Plumb said: 81 think prospects look better than
they did four years ago. or eight years ago. even
Twelve years ago. or course, It's question
whether we hold on at the good pace we have
pen In three months. believe, myself. that we
are going TO win. This detection among the Irish
and the laborng men, their dissatisfaction with the
democratic ticket, will, think, give us New York.
IL Will more than counterbalance any loss by re-
publican Independents. And then these stories
told about Cleveland are going TO hurt him with
some people"
But" suggested the reporter 'it is said in dem
ocratc circles that similar stories about Blaine

"Well, then" said the Senator, "it will simply re-
solve itself into each side voting for it's own man.
Democrats Will vote for Cleveland and republicans
1Or Blaine. But everything considered think that
II nothing happens 10 change the popular current
we Will win. 1t is absurd for any man to say,
