The Memphis appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1886-1890, 1889-02-10

THE right of women TO the suffrage is no
longer a subject of mockery, Of jibe or OF
Jest. II has survived that critical ordeal
and is now generally admitted to be one Of
the serious questions of the day. Think
ing people everywhere have come TO rec
ognize not only the injustice Of withhold
ing the ballot from women, but also the
benefit to society Of their participation in
politics as voters, especially in municipal
elections, and upon those issues that vitality
concern the homo. Wherever they have
had the opportunity women have proven
their capacity for the exercise Of the
suffrage and have invariably thrown
their influence for the best results
from high moral standpoint They have
proven their title TO DO free as men are
free and there is now more than over a
disposition 10 concede II and strike the
word male from the laws Of the several
States. An amendment 10 that effect to
the Constitution Of Ohio was recently Of
iered by Representative Clarke, and the
special committee on Woman Suffrage Of
the Federal Senate, as the telegraph re.
ported on Thursday, have reported unan-
imously in favor Of admitting women to all
the rights and privileges Of citizenship I'M
der the Constitution OF the United States.
This is very significant Of final success.
And for that day . Lord, we pray"

WASHING Ton LETTER,

Secretaries Noble and Tracy have
locked horns again for fight, and
many think the result will be the 10 |
tirement of one or the other of them
from the cabinet, perhaps both. To

personally by President Harrison for

party. while Mr.. Tracy came into the
cabinet us the personal representative

wing of Tie Republican party. Prcsi

are all undoubtedly will, Mr.. Noble,
bat owing to his susceptibility to the
influence of the powerful members of
his party it is doubtful which Secre
tary he will i'll the end sustain. The
trouble between the two gentlemen
comes from the pension Office. which
continues to be veritablo thorn in
the side of tho administration. Sec
rotary Noble has asked for tho resig

There is little outward change in
the Speakership campaign. Mr.. Reed

they have got him beaten. Mr.. !
