A Missouri Crank.

"Wyoming and Washington
have become notorious by their
woman suffrage laws and their
practice of having mixed iuries of
men and women, on some occas-
ions locked mp together over night.
It is pretty we'll understood that
was started by Free Lovers as an
indirect way Of attaining their
ends, the chief Of which is that of
making promiscuity respectable,
though some good people have
been hoodwinked into following
after the woman suffrage move
lnent."
The above paragraph is taken
from lengthy article in a Miss
ouri paper and is a fair sample OF
the style of argument used to keep
the eyes Of Missourians from "the
land of promise" Had woman suf-
frage carried the writer states that
it would have opened up field for
the Negro women OF the South,
who could find situations as SER
wants, but the perquisites in the
way of vote-selling and jury fees
would be no inconsiderable adjunct
to their regular wages. These
Negro women are nearly all good
housekeepers, strong, hardy
healthy and exactly suited for the
rough stage OF society now exist
ing in Wyoming and Washington
While the proportion of males to
females in Washington may be the
opposite to that in Massachusetts
or Missouri, wife hunters are by nc
means drug on the market, and
while the lines of society may no
be as distinctly drawn as in the
east, the class of people average as
well and the proportion of lawless
ness much smaller than on the old
stamping ground Of the Younge,
brothers and their ilk. Again, thu
percentage of illiteracy is several
times greater in Missouri than in
pnciviized (D w; shington.
He concludes the collection O
rot: ''Thus, starting out only Will
the expectation of making a little
promiscuity paradise for them
selves in remote corners of the I'M
ion, the people of Wyoming an,
Washington will build better thar
they know. They will get Jus
the kind Of wives suited for then
and will do much to settle th
yexcd trace problem.''
This "rernote corner of the I'm
ion" is even now attracting more
attention in the east than Missouri
ever did, and all the yarns it
writers can invent have little effec
on its people, who are CONSTANT,
coming to join our colony of Mis-
sourians-going to that bette
land from whence few return. On
people are not building better thar
they know, for they expect to max
Washington one of the grandes
states in the Union. Well, suffrage
failed to carry and our advice K
the bigoted writer is to 90 to Utah
the only free-love paradise W
know of.
