much abused GhRC mere was pleasHnb
surprise, for Kansas will compare favor
ably with some Of the states that have
about four times as large an sppropris-
tion, and will average among the best.
The building is plain, but neat and
amply sufficient in every way. After the
almost fatal delay from political compli-
cations, the board, with true Kansas
push, are as near ready as most OF the
states, and have seemingly accomplished
with 81 what in other states has required
from 50 to 81. Truly, they deserve much
credit for their activity and economy thus
far. Mrs. A. M. Clark, secretary Of the
board, is especially busy, and to her care
and frugslity much Of the success Of the
work is due. A majority OF the human
family who secure positions OF public
trust have their heads 30 turned with the
honor or become so prodigal in their
management Of public funds that the
public naturally becomes disgusted and
looks with suspicious eye on all; but to a
marked degree Mrs. Clark has retained
her plain common sense and frugslity,
while her first aim is the best interests Of
Kansas.
Seeing her fill so .oreditRbly and judi
ciously the most important position on the
board brings forcibly to mind the atti-
tude that some of our Kansas voters
and county papers are assuming toward
the proposed amendment. While the AD-
voCATE, most of the state officials, and
more prominent ones Of the party stand
true and firm for suffrage, from various
parts of the country arise dlscordant
notes, surprisingly inconsistent and out
Of tune, which are attributed to two
causes. The first stump over which they
have stumbled is the stupendous fact
that Laura M. Johns, president Of the K.
E. s. A., has been guilty Of offensive
psrtissnship; therefore, to punish the
little audaclous woman, the hundreds Of
their own loyal women workers and the
whole army Of suffrsgists must be de-
MED hearing and deprived Of the moral
and political liberty for which they have
so patiently lsbored and waited. 1t mat
ters not that Annie L Diggs is vice pres
ident Of the X. E. s. A., that many Of its
leading workers are Populists, or that
Mrs. Lease may have been even more
"offensively partisan" to the other side.
l wonder that these logicians do not
carry out their course Of reasoning and
denounce the whole Omaha platform be-
cause McGrRth and few other promi-
ment ones have been adiudged traitors
to the party. Strange how sensitive some
men are when woman varies one iots
from the path which he has laid out for
her. 1t confuses us sometimes, and we
find it difficult to determine whether we
are to give an account to God or to him,
but if the good brothers will be chsri-
table for our lack Of experience, we will
try and look after the mistakes Of our
sisters while they attend to those Of their
brothers. Permit me to say, by way Of
explanation, that while Mrs. Johns did,
in jest, pin on the hated "red flsg," she
did not take the oath Of service, or wear
it officially, as was reported. She did
stay In the state house all night, but
with her was one Populist woman, a wife

have exhausted even newspaper vocabu'
larry in SEARCHING for eulogistic sdjectiYes
and gilt-edged diction, and the news
boys have screamed themselves hosrse
shouting, "All about the opening Of the
W-u.r l. ---l" let us draw aside the
curtain the "Windy City" has drawn
about herself, and view things in their
unvarnished light. 1t is a thAnklesS
task to scatter delusions, for people like
to BE- fooled and pile msledictions on the
head Of the audscious diSenchanter, but
truth compels one to say that the
Worlds Fair ls not open, nor will it be
in full running order for probably two
monthe. True, there was big parade
and immense throngs OF people standing
for two or three hours several inches
deep in mud and packed so tight that one
could pot move, save with the tide. 1t is
marvellous that numbers were not liter
ally crushed to death or trsmpled under
foot. Happily it was a cold day, and
only seventeen were reported at the hos
pitsl, some from crushed ribs, but prln-
cipslly from faintlng. The blind
chaplain prayed until the people began
TO wish he had been struck dumb in
stead of blind; the poem was read, and
Cleveland made his little speech, but
until the evening papers we're out, prob
ably not twenty in that vast multitude
had any conception Of what was uttered.
However, they had seen Grover and
heard the commotion after he pressed
the wonderful button, and doubtless were
content. The real interest Of the day
was over, and the crowd collapsed"
wandering Bimlessly about the grounds
which did not bid them welcome. True,
there was much to see; first OF which to
attract attention were the charming la
goons" Of which the papers have not
told the half, for verify the park was
covered with innumerRble lagoons Of
genuine Illinois mud, instead of azure
blue, and through these one had to wade
to get anywhere, picturesque" but un-
inhabited rubbers forming tiny islands
on which to view the situation. Even
Chicago papers we're conscience smitten
before May l about the condition in
which the city had left the streets and
entrances to the grounds, but declared
everything inside to be in fine condition.
This statement can no doubt be vouched
for by the thousands of men and women
who waded about the grounds with their
clothing literally pasted with mud to a
depth of from two or three to twelve
inches. With few exceptions, the paved
streets and beautiful grounds might be
seen only in imagination, and Kansas
diction would doubtless have labeled the
place q "nasty mudhole." 1t is an ill
wind that blows nobody good, and dry
goods men must have been made glad
over the number Of expensive and beau
tiful gowns that were ruined. The ludi-
crous was illustrated by one woman we
discovered sitting on the bank of Ia
goon washing out the bottom of her
dress, which was evidently her best
gown.
The larger buildings Of the "White
City" are completed on the outside, and
their beauty sadly msrred by Chieago's
bsrbarous climate; many Of the smaller
ones are but fairly begun, and not q

that majority Of the women would
vote the republican ticket. From an
ethical standpoint every man must Of
necessity say, give woman the ballot be-
cause it is right, and let her, like men,
vote as she thinks best; but I wish now
to consider only the question Of ex-
pediency and place q danger signal over
the trap that is being set for women and
the Populist party. The republican party
has never wanted full suffrage, and now
wants it less than ever, because it knows
that the women Of the country and the
majority of our thinking and aggressive
women Of the towns are turning toward
the Populist party. 1t fails to mention
that the country women outnumber
those Of the towns, or that far greater
number Of town women voted Populist
tickets than ever before, but plumes
itself on the wonderful victory it won
through the women's votes, hoping to
alarm the Populist voters and defeat the
amendment. The stale cry that women
did not want to vote, all political leaders
have raised, but never believed in. Neither
the negro or the Indian have ever made
one hundredth part the effort for fran
chise that women have done, but the
right was extended to them because ex-
isting conditions were such that they
would subserVe the interests of the re-
publican party, and their votes could be
more easily manipulated than women's
votes. The fact that very large ma
jority of them could neither read or
write and were as ignorant of govern
ment and our nations needs as an infant
Of trigonometry, seems to be much in
their favor. Before and after the war,
reformers like Wendell Phillips, Lloyd
Garrison and the women themselves,
plead earnestly for equal suffrage. Num-
bers Of World-renowned reformers have
given their lives to the work. Congress-
has been beseigsd by more petitions for
woman's suffrage than upon all other
questions combined, but to no avail.
Neither democratic or republican parties
want voters they can not control. Be-
cause of our much importantly munich
pal suffrage was finally given in Kansas
as sort Of peace offering, but many Of
the men who voted for it did so with
questionable mental reservations and
the general understanding that the law
would be repealed in few years. The
republican party has been in power for
quarter Of a century and might have
done anything it willed, and the women,
as we'll as the men, who are still blinded
by it's promises, are blind indeed. The
majority Of our women have got their
eyes open and have turned to the Popu-
list party as their only political friend.
It's very cornerstone is "Equsl rights to
ALL" which it has emphasized by pledg-
ing itself for womsn's suffrage. Women
have trusted, prayed for and worked for
the Populists Of Kansas as women have
never before done for any political party.
Through them it has achieved an un-
paralleled victory, and Kansas has aston.
ished the nation. Bstrsy us now and
we are indeed undone, and by the in
variable law of human nature we will
become your most bitter foes, while the
Populist party will die by the hand Of its

upon mischief of the rowdy order, plug
ged up the fountain in the Fourth ward
with a rubber cork. This caused the wa

of bursting. Some time ago the cup was
taken away. Quite recently the key hole
Of one of the fire alarm boxes was plug
ged up with an old quid of tobacco, which
freezing there, rendered the box useless.
Such acts Of vandalism should be severe
ly punished if the perpetrator could be

made to discover who the parties are. To
accomplish this the city council should Of

lead to the arrest of the guilty ones, and
the reward should be large enough to
make people active IN the search.
