THE RIGHT TO VOTE.

An Object Lesson From Practical Ex-
perfence in the State of Wyoming.
In a previous communication, writes
rs. S" from Gilroy, had occasion to call
attention to a speech made by Senator Carey
OF Wyoming on the subject of woman suf-
frage, and in this desire to call the atten-
ton OF those who balieve in the saying that
''there should be no civil or political differ
ence between men and women" TO some fur
ther remarks made by the Senator. These
may serve as an object lesson to those who
do not agree with the ones who are fighting
10 secure to woman the right which so long
has been withheld from her. The Senator
said: The people Of Wyoming remained in
a territorial condition for twenty-one years,
when with an almost unanimous voice they
asked to be admitted as State. The ad-
miniStration of affairs III wyoming had
been conducted in such way as to reflect
high credit upon American Institutions.
Few laws were enacted by the people dur
ing its territorial existence that did not ex-
hibit the superior intelligence and good
JUDGMENT OF IT'S CITIZENS.
The Territory's financial standing and
credit was the best. Not one territorial Off
Ger had defauted. fine system OF publlc
schools and a State University were main
tanned. When the time arrived for the
people to make State constitution, 1t be-
came a question whether to incorporate
woman suffrage in its provisions; and, II
adopted, whether Congress would permit q
new State to come into the Union which had
made such an innovation upon the estab-
lished condition Of society as it existed in
the older commemorative. The people of
Wyoming were anxious to become a State,
and eXerted their best efforts to accomplish
this purpose; but there was an almost unani-
nous sentiment that if Wyoming was to be
admitted into the sisterhood of States its
women should not be debarred from rights
they had enjoyed for period of more than
twenty years. and in the exercise Of which
they had shown themselves in every way
competent and worthy citizens.
The Wyoming constitution was formu-
lated, believe, by as able body of men as
ever assembled in new commonwealth
1t was in a certain sense q volunteer con-
siitutOnal convention, as there existed no
law authorizing the converting of such an
assembly, or providing compensation for
their services The provisions of the con-
stitution that define the right Of suffrage,
and the power to hold office in the State,

can system; and l believe if they were in

The Deutcher Frauenverein Reform That
Was Organized in Weimar.
Eva Claiming, writing to the Woman'S
Journal of Boston, says;
An association of women was formed in
Weimar in March, 1855, with aims so ra-
tional and a spirit so progressive that it
ought to enlist the sympathy of all women
throughout tn. world who have at heart the
higher educa ion and independent activity
Of their own sex. This "Deutscher Frauen-
verein Reform" has recently published a re-
vised constitution, accompanied by state
ment of its aims and scope, from which we
learn that this 'dy Of women has prudently
limited It's efforts to one field and decided
to concentrate its attention upon gaining
admission of women to those higher profess
sions, the preparation for which involves
university study.
To accomplish this their aims are as fol-
lows: First the erection Of preparatory
Schools for girls with the same programme
OF study as in the boys gYmuasiumS; sec
ono, to secure tor these girls gymnaSlumS
the right of awarding diplomas which shall
admit TO the higher schools third, ad MIS-
sion of women to study in tue universities
and higher Institutions vi learning; fourth,
to secure the permission Of the State, where
such is necessary (as e. g. in medicine), for
women IT, practice the higher protest.
for which they have qualified themselves.
These aims they propose to accomplish
by erlightening public opinion through the
different avenues Of the press, by petitions
to the proper government authorities and
by collecting funds for the establishment of
girls gymnasiums. 1t is further stated that
the vercin has no political or denomna-
tlOnal bias. It's organ is a neat little peri

A CRITIC CRITICIZED.
A Writer Who Thinks That Kate Field

A Writer Who Thinks That Kate Field
Should Not Be Too Severe.
A writer for the Detroit Sunday News in
a recent issue thus pays attention to Kate
Field for some of her criticisms on the
women who took part in the Women's Ma
tional Council:
Kate Field has recently criticized severely
some of the women at the Women's National
Council She gives them fits for their bad
voices and bad pronunciation, and is put
out because Miss Willard used the word
arousement," a word not found in the
dictionaries Some Of her criticisms are pat
and pertinent, but others fall short of that
1t does not seem out of place nor in conflict
with good sense to use words that are not
found in the dictionaries. Why, Miss Field,
in the very first paragraph of her article,
complains because there is no feminine
equivalent" so to speak, for the word fra
ternal, and suggests the word sororal. And
it is a pertinent suggestion, too. Carlyle
cared very little whether or not the words
he used were in the dictionaries, 50 long as
they served his purpose. Dictionaries are
merely the records of words and their
meaning. The words must be used by
somebody. before they get into the diction-
aries. And, then, Miss Field should not be
too critical of the women. She knows their
environment and possibilities too we'll to
subject them to the same criticism that
would be perfectly proper when applied to
orators OF the male persuasion. Give the
women a chance, and who knows but what
the future Cicero5 and Dem0StneueS OF the
world will come from the feminine half of
the human race?

What Mr.. Murite Says.


l am asked why | think the New York
Baseball Club will win the rennant OF the
National League again this year.
i think we shall win, President Day thinks
we shall win. aud every man in the club is
certain of victory, because the New York
Club is the strongest in the land. 1t is
stronger than it was last year. All the old
Giants are back with us, in splendid cond;-
ton physically and fit to play ball with any
men who ever trod the diamond. We have
stronger shortstop than last year. They
think they have a better one over in Brook
Ign, but l don't believe it. The best of
good feeling prevails among the men and
they are all going to work together Tor the
success of the club. There isn't man in
the club who will not work for the champion
ship, and let his individual record take care
of itself. We are in the game TO win.
OF course there are strong clubs in the
field against us. | wouldn't like to say
whether Brooklyn or Boston is the stronger,
but we are not afraid OF either OF them.
There is going to be great revival OF ln-
terest in baseball this season. The old Ma
tional League stands practically alone in
the field, and championship honorS are 60
ing TO mean more than they did last year, or
ever before in fact The presence of two
leagues last year called into notice a great
many good baseball players, and the very
best of them will play in the league this
year. There will be better, sharper and
closer playing than ever before. and keener
interest on the part of the public. If there
are not 1900 people here at the opening
game of the series with the B0stons, | shall
be very much mistaken. We are going to
deserve aud reward the confidence of the
public, and to Justify the keenest interest.
So far as the New Yorks are concerned,
there will be few "of days" and every
one who comes to the park will see a good,
hotly fought game.
One thing which I would like to say is
that the " stars" of the club, the very strong
est men, must positively appear at every ex-
hiDition game that it plays. l am deter
mined upon this not only to keep the men
in practice, but to increase the popularity
OF baseball.
The season of 1891 is going to be great
one for the national game and for the New
York Club JAMES MUTRIE.
