SOUTH DAKOTA has incorporated
school suffrage for women in the consti-

The French minister of public works,
NJ. Yves Guyot, informs the author of
Freedoms Conquests' that in all the
eighty-six departments of France the
women teachers of the public schools
vote for lady members of the department
councils of instruction. School suffrage
for women thus exits in this form
throughout France.

POLITICAL DISHONOR.
The Abuse of the Ballot System by Incom-
petent Voters.

While reading in a recent number of
the Woman's Journal the article en-
titled, THE Question of Capacity" /
was reminded, writes Fannie L. Fan
cher, of Dodge Center, MINI, to that
paper, of an incident that occurred at
our last election, which l fain must re-
late, since it is so apropos.
l visited the polls, and deposited my
vote for county superintendent. Mind
you. our vote, the winners" vote
could not have been in greater demand
had We had the whole loaf instead of the
''crumb." Moreover, we received the
most deferential treatment, even from
men who were avowed anti-suffragists.
When returning from the hall, met an
elderly lady, accompanied, as usual, by
an imbecile male relative of some fifty
years of age. whom she took care of, re-
ceiving pay from the county for so doing.
Judge of my feelings to learn that she
went not to deposit her vote, but to have
this man drop vote, which she handed
him. And the men present uttered no
protest, though they knew that this
was direct violation of the law, the
man not only being an idiot, but
pauper. But they desired votes, and
they knew this mans would swell their
majority; hence it was counted.
In righteous indignation, said to my
'.liege lord" who is not woman suffra-
gist: ''How could you stand there and
witness the preparation of such an in
suit to your wife? Why did not the men
present rise en- masse and say: No, if
our intelligent, well-educated wives
can not vote. we challenge the vote Of
this person." Note his reply. With
laugh. for the men seemed to consider
this in the light of joke, he said:
He was just as capable of voting as
were half the voters Most Of the for
eigners present deposited votes which
were handed them. Being unable to
read, or to understand some of the
issues, they were no more competent to
judge as to their votes than was this
poor simpletol."
Now is it not good omen for men to
see, and to admit, this lack of capacity
among their own sex? Oh. speed the
day when any person, regardless Of sex,
must be able to read. Understandings.

and do not wonder that when Christ
started out on that pilgrimage the an

the East woman IS frivolous slave, but
man is sensual, mean spirited. with his
own soul dominated by every base and
cruel passion. These are but types Of
what the race has produced in the futile
attempt, repeated in every age and ev-
cry cline, by man to raise himself, but
retain woman in subsection. But amid
this darkness there is hope, for God did
not forsake His creatures in their sins.
Even before their sentence was pro-
nounced, the gracious promise was given
the seed of woman should bruise the
Serpent'S head. ITO this end was the
Son of God manifested, that he might
destroy the works of the devil" We
find confederation of the view that the
subsection of woman took its origin in
sin, because every advance of Christian
principle, among every people and ma
ton under the sun, is marked by the in
variable advance of woman from her
state of subsection. No other social i'm
provement is so uniform and so univer-
sal. So unmistakable is this evidence
of civilization based upon moral
ity that philosophers as well as
Christian teachers have commented
upon it, and as great a master
of social science as Herbert Spencer
says that the status of women is the
surest index of the degree of civilization
of any people. But while the destruc-
ton of this work of the devil has been
going on continuously, it has been eff
fected in large part unconsciously to
