Woman's View of Suffrage.

the Rocky Mountain News during
the recent session of the Colorado
legislature, and, although that was
some time ago, the letter is so good
that we feel constrained to give it
to our readers:
In view of the equal suffrage bill
now pending in the senate, take
courage to send you these opinions,
knowing that your columns are ever
open to the voice of the people. l
find the more courage to do so from
the knowledge that ! voice not only
nv own sentiments, but those OF
many other women. The arguments
now heard against equal suffrage
are almost too threadbare to answer
They perhaps had some force forty
years ago, when the subject was
new and women were struggling out
of the inherited bonds of ages
but in the light of the last genera
ton, they become very tame. Take
that ancient saying, at will desc
crate the sanctity of the home" 1t
can hardly be urged now, when
neighboring state has thus risked
the purity of its firesides. Do we
hear of decorated homes in Wyo-
ming? Are the sacred Penates
there overturned? Have Wyoming
women become an unsexed, shame
less race, engulfed in the mad vortex
of politics, forgetful of all domestic
and social ties, because they vote
for president Do not women con-
tinue TO be women just the same |!
Don't people go on in the same old
way there, marrying and giving in
marriage, making homes and buy
ing new spring bonnets SO with
all the rest of the worn old platl-
tudes about the unsexing and de-
grading influence that politics would
have upon women.
These arguments were all made,
Mr.. Editor, when the subject OF
higher education for women was
first mooted. That struggle is for
gotten now, but the things that were
said can be found in histories of the
subject, in the files of newspapers
of the day, in the memory OF wo-
men who went through the fight.
Thirty-fve years ago, the first
college for women in the world was
founded on the banks of the Hud-
son. At Vassar, the highest educa,
ton was for the first time held out
to woman. Now, her own colleges
are rich and many, and the major.
ity of the great universities have
opened their doors to her. What
is the result? Are women any the
less womanly because thousands
upon thousands are college alumn@ !

were not.
Throughout the war, those women,
especially the suffrage movement,
abandoned all efforts for equal suf-
frage. Instead, every effort was
bent to aid the country in her hour
of peril. They organized the SAM
tary commission, the most splendid
example of organized charity ever
known.
Later, they organized the Freed
mans bureau. They organized a
national woman's league, and rolled
up mammoth petition, containing
hundreds of thousands of names,
praying congress to emancipate the
slaves as the surest, quickest way OF
cutting the gordian knot of the
rebellion. In a letter written May
g., 1864, to Susan B. Anthony,
Charles Sumner thanked the associa-
ton for it's work. He presented
their petition with words of eulogy..
The leading journals of the North
We'd with each other in praise of
their patience, patriotism and hun
dred other good qualities. Yet,
after the war, when these same wo-
men presented another petition,
asking that, in the reconstruction,
the suffrage be given without dis
elimination in race, color or sex,
Charles Sumner presented the petit
ton "under protest." and the same
papers held the same women up to
ridcule and obloquy. These are
historical facts.
Equal suffrage would introduce a
vast American vote into politics.
Five men come to us from Europe to
one woman. Thus, the female vote
would be largely American. Here
am l, tingliDg to my fuger-tips with
patriotism. Ancestors or relatives
of mine fought in every war of ours,
| from the Revolution to the Rebellion.
Yet, men from Hungary and Bohe-
mia and Italy, inhabitants OF my
country for less than a year, can
vote, and | cannot. 1t would intro
duce a moral force into politics.
There are six women in the Canon
CITY pen out of 600 prisoners yet,
when they get out, the 594 can vote
and we cannot. But the effects are
not the question. The question is
one of simple justice and right.
Men have no shadow of right
to forbid any woman to vote
if she wishes. They have the
power, but not the right. base
my right to vote on the simple fact
that | want to do so. That some
other women do not makes no dit

frage does not make its exercise

During the second session of the
Thirty-ninth congress, bill was in
troduced to extend the suffrage to
negroes in the District of Columbia.
On Monday, December 10, 1866,
Senator Cowan, of Pennsylvania,
moved to amend by striking out the
word "male - In his memorable

Cowan said: 81 would ask gentle
