Mr.. Mcclure next took up the finan-
cial cause OF the existing times, and
considered it in minute detail. he con-
cluded 1--WE were governed entirely too
much by Wall street, which
in turn got It's gold-bug ideas
from Threadneedle street and the Roth
childs. What was wanted was an
distinctiveiy American system Of finance
based, not upon gold alone, nor yet
upon gold and silver, but upon all things
of value-the wealth OF the nations.
He said the national bank system was
a great improvement upon the old State
bank system, yet it was a rank mo-
nopoiy.
Taking up the political cause OF the
present depression, he said the tariff
policies OF parties was potent cause OF
distress; yet the tariff had no direct
bearing upon wages. Employers would
grind workmen under a high tariff
just as quick as under lower one II
the workmen aided them by q lack Of
organization. The trades organization
was the remedy for workingmen. II
had done great good in this country in
preventing reductions, and was still a
greater power in foreign countries, and
especially in Germany and France,
when the workingman was a power in
governmental affairs, holding the bal.
ance of power in the Reichstag and in
the French Assembly. Here In America
there were few members OF Congress
who were
FRIENDLY TO LABOR"
but no workiugmen members. Why?
One reason was lack OF proper inter-
est, and another was that it cost $40, 900
TO get $1,000 Office. Elections were
largely a matter of barter and sale, and
the workingman, with no money, had
very little show.
The union man who was quick to take
benefits obtained by unions, "but who
was too cowardly or too mean
to pay fifty cents month
to support union," was given a
hard rub; and then the benefits OF I'M
ionism were eloquentIy and forcibly
presented. He said "if this present
era of depression had not demonstrated
TO the workman the value OF unions,
God help them, for l am afraid they
never will learn" He read the riot act
to weak kneed workmen and cringing
union men, and provoked hearty APP
plause by his shoulder hitting at abuses,
weaknesses and lack OF harmony
among workmen.
Mr.. Mcclure closed at 1910, having
made most interesting and valuable
address.

WILL pAvE TO PAY DEAR.

The New York Constitutional Con-
vention has before it a compromise Wo-
man suffrage amendment which pro-
yides that 'all criminal penalties ana
civil damages arising out Of breach OF
nroniss 10 marry shall be abolished;
also. All rights OF dover, and all penal
ties for non-support, and all privileges
the woman now enjoys in case OF d.
vorce. No allowance, alimony or costs
shall in any action for divorce or separ-
ation be allowed TO the wife
against the husband, and all
damages in action allowed IN
der the civil damage act 70 the wife
shall be limited TO such injury and loss
Of service as would be given to the hus-
hand in like case" 1t is, however, pro-
vided that mo female citizen Of the
State, whether an eiector or not, shall
be required TO bear arms in the militia
or in the army or navy OF the United
States, or to do police or jury duty"
If the women themselves were to have
a say on the subject, how many, outside
the short-hair sisterhood, would agree
to surrender all these privileges in re-
turn for the right to go to the polls with
the men and vote? Would it not be
TO most Of them bargain in
which the substance was exchanged
for the shadow? Yet that sort Of e1-
change is what the female suifragist
must make, whether provided directly
iu law or not. In her endeayors TO be-
come a man, politically, she loses sight
of the fact that she must lose some
thing Of her present influence and her
present position in the estimation Of
man, the extent Of the loss depending,
Of course, upon the extent to which she
might use her right TO enter the field
Of politics with her husband and
brother.
Woman, as rule, we firmly believe,
would vastly prefer her present domin-
ion and the exercise, by uDwritten law,
OF her present rule which is more potent
and beneficial than any right human
law can invest her with, to exchanging
il for the ballot-to WELD the gentle
scepter by which she rules the world,
rather than to give it w to mingle with
man in the affairs Of civil government.
ELKINs says he would welcome free
trade ''as a result Of protection" He
does not explain how free trade could
result from such protection as he favors,
which consists in ever increasing the
duties in accordance with the de-
mands Of the trusts, many Of which can
and do so sell their wares abroad in free
trade markets far cheaper than at
home ia eur nice, snug, Chinese walled
protected" market, where the con-
sumner must stand and deliver Such
protection means more millions for its
m llionaire benefcIaries, such as Mr..
ELKNs, but it will never mean free
