Elizabeth Cady StdntOn and Susan
B.AnthOny ON the Political SIT
uatiOn.
WASHINGTON, d. c., July 3l.-Eliza-
beth Cady Stanton and Susan b. An
thoay, President aud Vice President of
the National Woman Suffrage Associa-
iiou, issued an address 10 it's members,
why they should remain sttadfasily
with the political party that for the last
quarter OF II century has most faithfully
represented the fundamental principles
OF republican government. The address
says: "fhe next session will open with
our bills and reports waiting their turn
ON the calendars of both houses. 1t is to
.tds Republicans we must look to for dis
cusson and decision on our questions,
and did they constitute two-thirds ma
jority, we should confidently hope for
the passage OF the resolution submitted
to the sixteenth amendment; but We have
nothing to expect from any of the other
parties now struggling into existence.
The recent detection OF some of our mot
prominent friends from the Republican
party, who have spoken bravely and elo
qnently for many years on onr platform,
must not mislead the unwary, as their
action has been in no way influenced
" theh ihttitst III tbu NOuAn
Suffrage question. In fact, their
remarkable somer.ault, as far as We
can see, is not to illustrate any vital
principle, but merely to crafty personal
p'que. 1t is not that tney hate Cleve-
land less, but Blaine more. That such
men as George William Curtis, James
freeman Clark and Thomas Wentworth
Higginson have come down from their
high moral platform to swap their
votes with the Democratic party, in the
hope OF securing the initiative to make
suffrage for women the supreme law of
the land, lies the triumphant success of
the Republican party. For these rea.
sons, as we have no votes to offer, we
should give our earnest, conscientious
support to the Republican party. whose
chosen leader is one Of the nblest states.
men our country can boast, and who, il
elected, will, with the noble women OF
his family circle, honor the White
House and the highest office in the gift
OF the American people.
