WHAT WOMEN MOST need
Is It The Ballot Or Friendly
Assistance?
A PROFESSORS IDEAS.
Everybody is Talking About Suffrage
for Women While There Are
Some Important Points That
Seem TO be Overlooked.

"The great agitation of the woman's
suffrage question is bringing out many
things about women of which few people
ever think"
He was Professor in a Medical Col
lege who spoke and he spoke earnestly.
"Women are entitled to all the privil-
eyes they secure" he continued
"Few people, except women themselves,
know what they have to endure. Men
cannot understand these things nor APP
preciate them. If they did think they
would often act differently"
The speaker paused and a shade of
sadness came across his face.
There are periodical times when
every woman needs help. Men often do
not know this and would be of little assis-
lance if they did. But help in the form
of something soothing, sustaining and
Strengthening she must have Women
talk these things over among themselves
and it is pretty generally admitted that
there is but one thing that can be conf

And it is because of these things that it
is so popular.

that they deserve the best things mankind

women will become the brightest strong

have seized on the opportunity to exploit
themselves in public under cover of a
patriotic desire to decorate the peace

flowers and today they marched to town
and deposited their offerings on the

Lewelling refused at first to accept the

of the reform administration. He knew
that the board had inaugurated ire

Robinson could never approve of, but he
hoped the governor would at least con-

Another reason for the sudden and I'M
expected resignation of Robinson was
the fight which the Jeffersonian is
making on the university and Chancellor
Snow. Governor Robinson is a staunch
supporter of the chancellor and his work,
but the Pop organ wants Snow "re-

Meeting in Canton. o.

Meeting in Canton, o.
CANTON, o., May 3O.-An assemblage
of 800 got together here to express in
dignation at the Imprisonment of ]. S.
Coxey and his followers in Washington.
After strong speeches by local enthusi-
asts voluminous resolutions were adopted.
Among other things they recite are:
There is studied effort of those in
authority to abridge the rights of class
of citizens because of their poverty,
while extending unlimited privileges to
the well-dressed Hobbies of the banker
and corporate trusts in every department
of government. A power rules this gov
hind the money bags of Wall
street, New York, and in the
gilded offices of the corporate trusts and
com bines of the country. They control
the officers of the nation and in most of
the states, have their greedy clutches
upon congress, and are using the very
arts of hell itself to squash the fires of
patriotism in the breasts of our well-dis-
posed citizens. The merciless murder of
citizens of Pennsylvania by bands of
assassins in the garb of sworn officials,
the precOnceived programme of the au-
thorities at Washington to punish Mr..
Coxey and associates were each devised
and planned by an oligarchy of wealth,
aided by the daily press and enforced by
creatures SO lost to manhood, honor and
decency as to forfeit the respect of every
lover of his country. The right of petit
ton and peaceable assem- blage of Amer
lean citizens having been denied, we do
here and now most earnestly and en-
phatically protest against such acts as a
violation of our most sacred rights
citizens"
The arrest and trial of Coxey is de-
scribed as farcical and characterized by
gross injustice. OF the sentence the
resolutions say:
''The senseless and inhuman sentence
of Coxey and his lieutenants to imprisOn-
ment as common criminals, the forcing
them into handouts and manacles, while
permitting thieves and thugs, murderers
and vile offsprings to ride free of such
evidences of guilt, shows more plainly
than words can express that it only re-
quires the need of authority, dictated by
an enthroned monopoly, to place limo
cent citizens anywhere in this broad
land under the surveillance of hired as
sassins, deprive them of their liberties
and jeopardize their lives.
"Our sympathies are with all armies
of the commonweal, of whatever charac-
ter and kind, that are marching 'On to
Washington for the purpose of demand
ing relief from the oppression every
where visible in the land, and we declare
that America under proper conditions
would and ought to be the brightest, fair
est and best land in the world"

They also resolved to hold weekly

CHICAGO, May 3O.-In the great bicycle
road race here today as soon as the last
starter disappeared the immense crowd
which lined the course became I'M
manageable. Surging back and
forth, straining at the ropes and
crowding over one another in an
attempt to reach point of vantage, the
drive was soon black with people. Ropes
parted and the police lines were broken,
and in the crush many people were
knocked down and trampIed upon, al
though none were seriously injured.
The mounted police time and again
charged upon the lines and only after
vicious amount of clubbing was the track
cleared. Soon disabled riders began to
make their appearance limping down
the course showing or carrying their
broken steeds.
