Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1885-08-28

During the presidential campaign
last fall we were told by the dear old
republican organ grinders that if the
democratic party should be success
full there would be- general breaking
down of the manufacturing indus.
tries of the country. In vely many
instances employees were deluded IN
to the belief that manufactures had
made arrangements to shut down
their mills and factories the moment
democratic victory should be an
nounced. Even from our neighbor-
ing city of GAINESVILLE The Cry went
forth that the proprietors of factories
there had refused to buy material,
or make other arrangements to keep
their factories running, until the re-
suit Of the election would be known.
And lest the dire calamities which
were to befal us by thousands up
on thousands # men being thrown
out of employment in case of demo-
cratic ascendancy, many votes were
gained for the republican party. But
six months of good old-fashioned
democratic government have shown
how groundless were the fears
Of the party organs, and it Is refresh
ing at this time to find in such a
staunch republican newspaper as the
Evening Wisconsin, under the head
ing of THE Business Outlook" such
hopeful report of the situation as
the following:
Interviewed concerning the late
business visit to the manufacturing
centers of the east, A. W. Rich OF
this city has made public certain
facts relatively to the present bust
ness situation, which are significant
and representative and very encour.
aging.
The cloth goods manufacturing

average, are running to the utmost
of their capacity, giving steady work
and remunerative wages to thous.
ands who have for months been idle
and without income. The establish.
ments are not working ahead of The

Another political campaign is al

Another political campaign is al
hand. AS will be seen from call
which we print elsewhere, the Wis
cousin Woman Suffrage Associa-
ton will hold a convention at
Whitewater Sept. 18th and Both,
and Oct. LIST. And has it come to
this Just as we have put away
our last falls plumes and kerosene
and are getting fairly settled down
to our every day Christian duties,
is our peace to be broken up by a
call to arms for another contest? The
tone of the woman suffrage call
leaves no doubt that the association
is in earnest and while the repub-
licans and the prohibitionists are en-
gagged in settling the question wheth-
er it was st. John defeated Blaine, or
Blaine defeated st. John, the woman
suffrage party and the democratic
party promise to become the two
great political parties of the future.
AT this early stage of the fight we can
speak calmly, but how will it be later
on in the campaign, when a mans
foes have become those of his own
household, and the mother-in-law
is divided against the daughter-in-
law, brother against brother, and sister
against sister, and the man of the
house against the hired girl ! In
stead Of the lords of creation having,
it all their own way as at present
the woman suffragists will have
something to say in regard to the
affairs of our free and glorious
country, and be entitled to all the
rights and privileges usually enjoyed
in practical politics and political
campaign. But we dread the change.
1t is surely bad enough to have one
side of the house infatuated with
the ISSUES of the day" for two to
three months every off year, and
four to six every presidential cam
paign. But when both sides feel
that the grave responsibilities of free
government rest upon them, and
that it IS their first duty to put
forth all their moral forces for the
principles which they hold dear and
whoop it up for their respective
party candidates, then we will have,
not the millenium-but sheol of
of time, with all that the profane
term implies.
But seriously, these women are
entitled to n respectful hearing, and
for this reason we publish the call
which they have sent Us. We
believe that if the majority of the
women of America had asked for,
or wanted, the right of suffrage it
would have been given them long
