FOG CAUSED DELAY.

Exchange Place was crowded with
vehicles this morning from an early hour on
account of the fog on the river and the con-
sequent delay in the ferryboat service. A
long line of wagons extended from the ferry
entrance up Montgomery street as far as
Washington. BY ten o'clock the fog lifted
and the ferryboats, running on regular
time, greatly relieved Exchange Place of

The Farmers Problem.

The period has been reached in the
history of this country when producers
in every industry must figure on close
margins of profit. 1t is thus the more
necessary that every farmer who eX-
poets to prosper in his business, avail
himself of all the aid and information
obtainable. And there is nothing more
useful in this line than a subscription
to first-class and practical agricul-
tural journal like the "old reliable

journal which was established in Kan
sas in 1868. 1t ranks above most of
the journals of its class, and no enter
prising farmer can afford to deprive
himself or family of it. Every issue
has information worth the price of a
years subscription. 1t only costs S1.O0

IT is worthy of comment, in view of
the efforts that will be made this sum-
mer to have Kansas adopt the female
suffrage amendments, that at the
recent city elections In the state, where
under the present law woman have the
same elective franchise as the men,
not one-third of the female voters took
sufficient interest in the elections to
go TO the polls-did not even register.
In every city members of the board of
education were elected, as we'll as men,
bers of the city council. The school
ing of her children is certainly an
important matter with every mother,
and if the ladies desire to vote as bad
as the agitators would have you believe
they most certainly would have turned
out at the recent city elections and
aided in the selection of persons to
manage the school affairs. The fact is,
as everyone who earnestly studies the
question knows, that the large majority
of Kansas women do not want to mix
in politics, and no amount of argument
by professional agitators, paid to
canvass the state in the interest of
female suffrage, should fool Kansas
voters into the belief that the ladies
are clamoring for the right to vote.
Did they want the full elective privi-
lege they could no better make such
wants known than by using the privi-
leges they already have.
Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1894-04-12
Will Fight Female Suffrage.

The great body Of women opposed to
female suffrage cannot bring them
selves to make fight against that
which they dread, no more than they
would take hand in political life.
Upon the other hand the women who
are itching for public life delight in
nothing so much as notoriety. The
home, its duties. the demands of child
rem and the future welfare of the race
count as nothing compared to the pleas
ure they gain in parading before the
eyes of the world. It is the felicity of
existence to screech of their serfdom
and slavery, and elixir of life to pose
on a rostrum or curb stone, before
which all other joys are childish and
unworthy of consideration.
But an organization has been effect
ed by women with headquarters in
Barton for the purpose of appealing
to the women of America to stand by
womankind for all her privileges and
advantageous consideration as against
the effort to make her responsible for
material and political matters for
which nature never intended her. The
women composing this organization
do not propose to take the stump, but
would not. They are in sincere and
modest way making their appeal
through the pen. One of their cir
culars or papers lies before US. They
not only appeal for the home and its
sanctity but quote a number of emil
nent writer's and jurists who have writ
ten and spoken upon the various phases
of women and the ballot. They de-
clare that Notwithstanding all that has
been urged to the contrary that female
suffr age in Wyoming is failure in so
| far as woman her rights and elevation
are concerned. Bat for rantiDg and
inconsiderate women, Who projected
their ideas and demands, the catastro-
phe of the French revolution and the
blood of the Commune would have been
impossible. One lady warns congress
against a wild enthusiasm which
threatens so much injury to humanity
and that might destroy the noble estate
of womanhood. The implication of
inferiority so loudly cried by the advo-
Gates of political responsibility for wo-
men is absurd and has been evolved
| from the brain of the abnormal of both
sexes. 1t is all flabby sentiment void
of soundness or Wichita Eagle
