Tho Mission Of wosaa Suffrage.

Tho Pueblo city council recently az.

Il il q source OF untold corruption to the
youth Of the city and the council grant
cd the license in spite OF the protest Of
many hundreds Of the best citizens. But
the den Of vice received greater consider
alton at the hands Of the Aldermen than
did the wishes OF men and women OF
character and standing.
The ladies Of the Benevolent Union have
taken the matter mp and do not propose
to let it rest. At their last meeting they
discussed the situation and determined
that the ladies Of the union should be
felt as moral force in the city. In this
connection is an excellent place to say
that the women of Colorado should at
tach themselves to no political party, as
their brothers and husbands have done.
They have q grand opportunity TO be the
balance OF power which shall swing legis.
lrtion on the aide of virtue instead OF
vice. Every Pueblo alderman who voted
should be ''black listed" by the women
Of Pueblo and everyone retired TO priv
ate life at the next election. Not only
20, but at the next municipal election the
women voters should be 20 organised that
their ballots shall be cast only for men
who will pledge themselves, in writing,
TO enforce the reforms which the moral
sentiment of the city demands. Althese
years the saloon interests, and all the in:
iquities which the saloon encourages and
thrives on, have had the upper hand in
city politics and government. The time
in now come to change this. Let the
women refuse to become attached to any
existing party but hold themselves as q
compact organization to cast their ballots
solid and only for men Of integrity, men
who will not give the vicious elements
OF society special favors at the expense
Of the city's moral standing, Ifthe wom-

question as to whether or not the beet
