WISE LAURA JOHNS.
Some Very Good Advice from
the Suffrage Leader.
Not Immediate ResubmisSiOn,
Says Mrs. Johns
BUT WAIT UNTIL 1897
When the Question VIII Not Be
Involved
Among the Issues Of a State
Campaign.

Mrs. Laura NJ. Johns, president Of the
Kansas Equal Suffrage association. has
issued a lengthy circular stating the po-
sition of the suffrage association on the
question of having the amendment re-
submitted in answer to the circular sent
out from the suffrage resubmission"
headquarters in Topeka
After giving a detailed account of the
action of the Winfield convention on
immediate resubmission," Mrs Johns
says she and Mrs. Thurston both refused
to serve on the legislative committee for
the coming year, and that committee as
it now stands is com posed of two POpu-
lists. two Republicans and one Mug
wump.
Continuing. she says: "But for my in
terest in the enfranchisemen of women
"a cause for which / have sacrificed
much would have spared myself the
effort to stem the tide setting toward re-
submission, knowing that personal and
unreasOning antagonism and party hate
would open the flood gates Of abuse upon
me for so doing; but L was and am so
strong in my conviction that TO bring
woman suffrage amendment to q vote IN
1895 would be certainly fatal to it that
dared not withhold nv hand. This real
son, and this alone, prompted my opposl-
tion. ! believe that suffrage amend
ment would be showed under in 1896 TO
stay under for d generation
"Our plan Of work, adopted at Win
field provides for petitioning the legis-
larure to this winter submit a proposition
to amend the constitution; 50 that consti-
tutiOnal amendments may be voted upon
at the general election of any year. We
can then ask the legislature Of 1897 to re-.
submit the suffrage amendment aud it
can be voted upon in November Of 1897
only one year later than the time the
immediate resubmissionists' demand.
and thus would our measure be voted
upon at county election, unem barrassed
by the political complications which
we're such strong factor in our recent
defeat"
After devoting considerable space to
an explanation of her personal relation
TO the movement, Mrs. Johns concludes:
The legislative committee as ap-
pointed at Winfield viii go at once to
work, and in the meantime no matter
what their work develops, we must push
the business of per5uading Onr legisla-
tors to provide for changing the time of
voting on amendments. We must pro-
vide against vote on q suffrage amend
ment ever again in Kansas being taken
in an even year.
This circular has been sent to all the
auxiliaries of the suffrage association in
Kansas.

audience in Arlington hall to hear Miss
Field Among other things she said that
in Maine men voted to allow their house
to be searched and their personal liberty
infringed. "a man there" said Miss
Field, CONTRARY to justice, is held
guilty until he proves himself innocent.
"A man who pays attention to rea-
son. said she, s'and is moved to vote by a
pretty woman. deserves to suffer from
the effect of bad laws all his life.
"Atchison, Kansas, under prohibition"
Miss Field said, in one year spent So
100000 for groceries and $1,000, OOO for
drugs. Prohibition" she declared, ''had
ruined the inhab abitants of the Aleutian
perfumery, and any vile connection they
can buy. Alcohol is in everything. The
creator understood his work, and let us
accept the situation. In human stOm-
achs indigested food ferments and alcO-
hol results.
Every dyspeptic is a walking distil-
lery Must they be abolishedY IF so
"a goodly number Of our American race
must perish Total abstainers eat great
quantities Of sweets. These ferment,
and the prOhibitionists themselves form

of beer and wine, both pure. and the
eschewing Of liquors would promote true
temperance High license aud uprising
against adulteration Will result in un-
told good
