Mr.. D. Morris, in his address to the

Suffrage and Liberty.


The whole adverse argument OF w0-
man suffrage really settles into ques-
ton of convenience, and that is one that
may be left to determine itself. For, If
it is really inconvenient for woman to
vote, the permission to do so would pro-
duce no evil result. All that most
of the friends of universal suffrage ask
is freedom No man is compelled 10
vote, but every man may. 1t is left en-
tirely to his own choice. II the princi.
pie that there shall be no taxation with
out representation is correct, there is
not and never has been sound argu-
ment for the Acknowledgement of women
since they have been property holders.
A woman might own all the real estate
upon chief street in village, yet she
can not vote for road overseer The
history Of the movement for suffrage,
like all other great movements in this
country, shows to every youth that, he
who is hospitable to a liberty ridiculed,
entertains angels unawares. It is safe
to heed the counsel of Condorcet: 'Do
not choose man who has ever taken
sides against the liberty of any portion
of mankind. y Cincinnati Gazette.

Where Women Excel.

Women as physicians we are becom-
ing reasonably familiar with. That is,
we no longer consider it out Of taste
for lady to be q doctor. But women
as surgeons are morerare. In Switz-
erland they are pronounced to be the
most proficient in the medical schools
and hospitals, One professor says:
THE women are particularly dexterous
in handling muscles. Their small
taper fingers give them an advantage
over the, males, and their eyes are
quicker to detect details and minuti8."
These two points are strong ones.
Does not all the education and training
of woman tend to make her ADLER to
observe small details, whereas the. train
ing of men works to encourage the
summing up of items; that is, they
argue better, when The woman sees
more exactly. Women are said to
make remarkably apt microscopists.

ence of women, but treat them with the

/ could not help thinking, as | looked
at some of the voters, that there was q
good deal of humbug on this question
OF eligibility. The question was not
one of politics, even, but of education;
and there were men and women who
had the legal right to a voice in the
matter who were very little removed
from the brute creation. The most
hardened politician would not have
stultified himself by saying that they
could cast an intelligent vote, and yet
they had a voice in the question of the
education of the youth of this district.
/ am happy to say, however, that their
voice was not very strong, and that
the better element won the day If it
had not been for the womens vote, |
may add, this would not have been the
case.
My experience as voter has proved
to me that the objection raised in the
political arena against women voting
that they would encounter too much
roughness at the polls--is a will-o'-the-
wisp. | believe that even the worst
class of fourth-ward voters would
