w. c. T. U. COLUMN.
EDITED BY THE LADIES OF THE KE-
NosHA w. C. T. u.

We desire this week to give few
extracts from addresses made by dele
gates to the late convention of the w.
c. T. u, held in Chicago.
Mrs. Barker, of South Dakota, said:
81 want to say tonight that | am the
proudest woman, unless | except the
president of North Dakota, in all this
assembly. | am rejoiced that | have
been permitted in the last few years to
work in a territory that has given birth
to two grand states that bad the integ-
rity and intelligence to demand that
they should be born free. These two
states are the only ones in all this ma
ton that will never bear upon them the
scars of the chains of the rum tyrant,
and [ believe that Dakota is going to
enforce this prohibition law better than
it has ever been enforced in any state
in this nation. And then we, out In
the west have not yet said that the dec
Iaration of independence does not mean
Just what it says: So no sooner had we
won this great battle than we got up
early in the morning Of the third OF
October and put on armor for another
battle. The Legislature Of Dakota In
its wisdom has declared that equal suf-
frage is a question of so much import
anee that it shall be submitted to vote
of the people of Dakota. So whether
we women would or not, we were forced
to prepare for this battle also. and as we
read in the Constitution of these United
States that any person that is BORN in
the United States or has been natural
lied is a citizen, we felt that it was
right we should enter upon this great
campaign.
81 see in the papers, and hear
whispered all about me that there is
quite buzzing going on because TIVE
great Republican States have recently
gone Democratic with Democratic ma
jorities, and the people say it is the ac-
fion of the Independents. Now, what
do they mean? | believe they mean
that We have true men in the RepuF
lican party that believe in the principle
of prohibition and that they can do moth
ing else say this spirit OF indepe"d
enco will increase Somebody avs;
Wait till they get their eyes open and
/ believe they will, but trust they will
not be like the boys puppies. THIS boy
was given half dozen puppies md he
was vexed with them because they were
so slow getting their eyes open and he
waited until he was so Disguised that he
took one by its hind legs and knocked
it's head against rock, and then its
eyes got open and he said: This is a
pretty time of day to get your eyes open
when your brains arc knocked out Yes,
they will sil get their eyes open, and
hope they will not wait until it is too
late"
