v ashingCon Territory au- Woman
SuH-5rg.

In the course Of his speech in IL e
senate ON the b.Il to admit Washing
ton territory into the Union. Mr.
Dolph. speaking Of woman suffrage.
said: Mr.. President, there Is an.
other matter, which | consider per
tiuent to this discussion. and of too
much importance to be left entirely
unnoticed cn this occasion. 1t j.
something new in our political his
tory. 1t Is full Of hope for the
women of this country and OF the
world. 1t Is full OF promises OF the
future Of Republican Institutions.
| refer 10 the fact that IL Washing
ton Territory the right OF suffrage
has Ieeu extended to women Of
proper age. l 10 not believe the
proposition 50 often asserted. that
suffrage Is a political privilege. 1t Is
Il natural right. 1t Is regulated by
the constitution and laws of state.
/ grant. but 1t needs 10 argument.
l. appears to me to show that the
constitution ana laws adopted and
enacted by fragment Of the whole
body Of people, but binding upon all
alike. l. a usurpatIOn Cf the power
OF government. The government Is
but an organized society. Whatever
its form it has It's origin in the neces-
sites of mankind and Is indIspens-
able for the maintenance of civilized
society. II i essential to every gov
ernment that it should represent the
supreme power Of state and be cap
able of subjecting the viii Of its in
dividual citizens to its order. Such
a government can only derive its Just
powers from the consent of the
governed, and can be established
only under the fundamental law
which Is self-imposed. Every citizen
of suitable age and discretion who Is
10 be a subject to such government
has, in my judgment, a natural right
to participate in It's formation. Our
lamented Lincoln immOrtalIzed the
expression that ours Is the govern
ment Of the people, for the people and
by the people" and yet IL Is far from
that today. There can be ho govern
mput by the people where only one
half Of them are allowed to have Il
voice III its organization and control
l regard the struggle going on in
this country and elsewhere for the
Acknowledgement Of woman as but Il
continuation Of the great struggle
for human liberty which has from
tue earliest dawn of authentic history
convu!sed nations, rent kingdoms and
and drenched battle fields with hu-
man blood l look on the victories
which have been achieved in the
cause Of woman enfranchi sement in
Washington territory and elsewhere
as crowning victories, all of which
have been won by a long continued
and still continuing contest between
liberty and oppression. 1t is des-
tined to exert greater influence
upon humanity lhat any achievement
on the battle field of ancient or mod
ern times. Should this bill pass we
shall witness the spectacle of state
government founded upon the prin-
ciples of equality, and we shall have
state at last with q truly republi-
can form of government.

Against the OWL Service Law-Mr. Vance
WRnts It Abolished.
WARRINGTON, March 3l.-In the Senate
to-day Mr.. Vance addressed that body in
support Of hiSbillto repeslthc 0ivilserviCe
law. The act in Mr.. vance'a opinion was
unconstitutional, and in involuntarily
submlttingto It's provisions the President
was surrenderlng his prerogative which 1t
was his duty to protect. The people by
