About the only serious criticism we
have head against the suffrage arti-
Gle. which have appeared in the REG
lister during the past few months,
was that they discussed the question
as if it were theological question, in
stead of a political one. The class OF
'94 did not incur that criticism. They
treated their subject from practical,
political and very modern standpoint,
and the result was three well written,
well studied arguments for equal suf-
frage, which were not only entertain
ing, but instructive and convincing,
We do not make more datailed men,
ton of these addresses at this time
because we hope to be able to publish
them soon in full as part of our Suf-
frage Debate, for we consider them
we'll worthy of careful reading, even
by those who heard them so well de-
livered.
The stage upon which the class ap-
peared was set as a parlor and had
been handsomely decorated by the
Junior class under the direction OF
Miss Mitchell

follows:
