Rev. T. De Witt TaImage has visited
New Zealand, and in his usual breezy,
sensational style writes home, giving his
impressions Of the country, which are
very favorable. In his letter he says:
Another surprise to me is that female
suffrage is in full blast found elegant
ladies telling of their experience at the
ballot box, and hereby report to the
American ladies now moving for the
right Of female suffrage that New Yea
land is clear ahead of them and that the
experiment has been made here success
fully. Instead Of the ballot box degrad-
ing woman, woman is here elevating the
ballot box
And why in New Zealand or America
or anywhere else should man be SO
afraid to let woman have a vote? AS
though man himself had made such a
grand use Of it'll Look at the illiterates
and the incompetents who have been
elected to Office and see how poorly the
masculines have exercised the right Of
suffrage. Look at the governments Of
nine tenths Of the American cities and
see what work the ballot box has done
in the possession of man. Man at the
ballot box is a failure Give woman a
chance.
am not clear that governmental
affairs will be made any better by the
change, but they cannot be any worse.
New Zealand has tried it Let England
and America try it. It is often said in
America that if women had the right
to vote they would not exercise it. For
the REPUTATION of that theory I put the
fact that in the last election in New
Zealand, of 100, 600 women who regis
tered 80, 900 have voted, while Of the
1913, 600 men who registered only 129,
900 have voted This ratio shows that
women are more anxious to vote than
men. Perhaps woman will yet save pol
itics.
know tho charge that she is respon-
sible for the ruin of her race since she
first ate the forbidden fruit in paradise,
but l think there is a chapter in that
matter Of Edenic fruit not written I
think that Adam, when he saw Eve eat
ing that apple, asked for a bite, and get
ting it into his possession ate the most
Of it, and he Immediately shook the tree
for more apples and has been eating
ever since.
If woman did first trangress, / can
not forget that she introduced into the
world the only being who has ever done
much toward saving it. Woman has
started for suffrage. and she is q deter
mined and persevering creature, and
she will keep on until she gets It, She
may vet decide the elections in England
and elect presidents Of the United
States, as already she is busy in tie pO-
litical affairs Of New Zealand

correspondent, the practical inconven
fence that might be feared from the
vote of immoral women has not been
found to result where equal suffrage is
an established fact. judge Kingman Of
Wyoming says: We have had no trOu-
bic from the presence of bad women at
the polls. It had been said that the del
icate and cultured women would shrink
away and the bold and indicate come
to the front in public affairs This we
feared, but nothing of the kind has
happened. In Kansas during the early
days of municipal suffrage for women
an attempt was once or twice made to
bring out bad women to vote in the in
terest Of particular candidate. In each
case, as soon as the matter got wind, the
good women of the place turned out in
great indignation and buried that cam
didate out Of sight under their votes.
AS the good women everywhere out
numbered the bad ones a hundred to
one, candidates have grown wary by
to get the vote of the bad women as
they would shun the smallpox. The
dispatches from the Colorado elections
reported that the three classes of vvOm-
en- who generally neglected to vote
were the very ignorant, the ultra fash
ionable and the demimonde. These
women, as a rule, take no interest in
politics and seldom vote unless special
effort is mace to bring them out, and
the effort, as we have seen, is not made
because it has been found that it does
not nav -

A NEW COMEDY.


In these days of degenerate comedy
farce, it is refreshing to come across one
that preserves fresh images, and does not
depend upon vulgarity as its chief source
OF amusement. Such play is "Charley's
Aunt" which will be presented here for
the first time tomorrow matinee and
night and Sunday night at the Grand
opera house. Sometimes New York en-
dOrsement is not all that it might be, but
"Charley's Aunt" had a prosperous en-
gagement at the Standard theatre, New
York, and when IT visited the other large
cities Of the country, it repeated its met
ropolitan success. The piece is said to
be an admirable example Of dramatic
construction.
