union of all reform elements. He
thinks the Peoples party should
not be afraid to tackle the whisky
question. While here, Mr. Johnson
gave us an account of the shooting
of a burglar by Attorney Alta
Campbell, Of lola, few nights ago.
Campbell was awakened by noise,
and thought he heard somebody in
room adjoining his bedroom, and
got up and went into the Other
room to investigate. Seeing nc
one, he went back to bed. Pretty
500, lie saw a man pass the foot o.
his bed, and Campbell jumped ont o.
bed and grabbed a loaded gun and
fred at the intruder. He ther
learned that there were two intrud
ers. There was shooting on both
sides, but Campbell was unhurt
He succeeded in shooting off the
arm, of one of the burglars, how
ever, and he was captured. The
other fellow escaped.

A Battle For Female Suffrage in
New York.

The female suffragists of the
state of New York asked the recent
constitutional convention to place a
universal suffrage clause in the re-
vised document. After full con-
sideration that body declined to
grant the request. The agitators
then took their cause to the legis-
lature. Here they have been more
successful. The question is to be
submitted to the voters at the elec-
ton next autumn. A campaign of
education is to BIO commenced at
once, and the whole problem is to
have an early any thorough ventil-
alton. That is we'll. If we be-
lieved the womanly women in the
homes of New York or any other
state desire female suffrage we
would zealously favor it. But of
this we are yet to be convinced.
On the other hand, we are in favor
of finding out exactly what the wo-
man of short hair and masculine
tastes, who discounts home and
longs to parade herself upon the po-
litical platform and in legislative
halls, really wants. Then we would
give her the other thing.-Epworth
Herald.
| am ashamed of the editor of the
Herald and would respectfully call
his attention to the following item
taken from the Pacific Wine and
Spirit Review. How blessed it is
for brethren to dwell together in
unity:
"The liquor trade may as well
come to the conclusion, sooner or
later, that a great danger is found
in woman suffrage. On general
principles, nine out of tan are op-
rosed to the saloon as an institution.
The liquor trade need expect no
quarter from unreasoning women .
They must be beaten by votes"

In last weeks Topeka Drum
Beat, find an article on Woman
and Politics, by Pauline Stone,
which is too good to lose; at least,
parts of it are; so give them to
my readers:
X * / have put the inquiry
to the best men l know. They all
agree that when woman is person
ally interested, when her husband is
running for or filling an office, she
should care and know enough to be
a wing rather than weight; but as
for any intelligent study of political
and social questions. as for any re-
responsibility to her native land,
they, like the mass of masculine hn-
manity, regard woman as "out OF
her sphere" Vague and awesome
phrase!), or what is even worse,
have never thought of her in such a
connection.
To such, it would doubtless be a
surprise to learn that there is vast
number of women to whom house
keeping, home-making of the truest
sort, dressing, visiting and all the
rest of so-called feminine employ
ments are not altogether satisfying.
Many a good woman grows to see
that her chief solace, church work,
is not always Christian work that
her pet charity is not based on the
broad principles of love of humani'
ty. Fiction is but fiction to some
women, although the booksellers tell
US they buy 80 per cent. of the nov
els published. History is but light
for presentliving, and to such comes
a desire to take some part in the
great drama of national life she seel
enacted about her, or, what is more
common, she longs for the power t.
help correct the evils she sees -four
ishiDg at her doorway, evils that NJ
power save the ballot can control.

There scenes to be a great deal
of uneasiness in many quarters as
to what the new century baby will
do. Allay your fears, my friends,
for the new century baby will be the
healthiest, happiest, jolliest baby
the old world ever saw. 1t may
not be SO great in quantity, but l
assure you it will be mush better in
quality, for the mother is learning
that her body is her own, and it is
crime for her to bring babies into
the world that she positively cannot
take care of. Oh, the pity of it
all. that the world is full of poor
.sickley, sorrowful little babies !
babies that are hungry-babies that
haven't sufficient clothing-babies
that don't see their mothers from
daylight till dark, because they are
in the sweat shops of our great
cities, working, working-not to
LIVE, for a woman and baby CAN'T
LIVE on seven cents for dozen
pairs of little boys pants, but they
manage to keep soul and body to-
gether until the hot weather comes
on; then the baby goes home to
God. Maybe, after all, that is the
way heaven is to be populated, for
I am sure that men who have
brought about a system that starves
and freezes little babies--a system
that deprives little babies of a
mother's tender care-a system
under which mothers must sell their
bodies to get shelter and food for
their babies-will never see inside
Heavens pearly gates, no, not
though they endow churches and
colleges ever so literally and give
largely to charity. "Thou shalt
not kill" says our God, and the
man who, through the sweat shop,
robs babies by failure to pay liv-
ing wages to the mothers, has muir
dered those babies just as surely as
though he strangled them to death.
The twentieth century woman has
heard her Christ, as He said to
Mary, "Go, tell the disciples l am
risen," and she proposes to GO
We send missionaries to heather
lands to teach poor, ignorant moth
ers not to feed their babies to thu
crocodiles, and then vote to license
245 900 croccdiles to eat our Amer
lean babies. So, the twentieth

century woman has decided that the
only way she can protect the TWEEN
tiety century baby is with the bal
lot and she proposes to do it. So,
friends, don't worry about the
twentieth century baby. God did
not make a mistake when He made
mothers. He could not be around
all the time, so he made the twen-
tieth century woman.

The average woman knows and
cares nothing under high heavens
for politics and would be much af-
fronted to have you ask her opinion
on high tariff or bimetallism. This
deplorable s ate of affairs arises from
the fact that she is ignorant of the
unity of life. If she could be brought
to see that politics and religion are
one and the same and influence Il
had almost said include) all other
factors in life, they would surely
give some of their leisure nearly all
American women enjoy, to such
matters. l remember very distinctly
my first eye opener on this questson.
A soft eyed Cornell graduate asked
me: care you free trader?' A free
traderl Wonderful! What did | know
about free trade? l was enjoying life
perfectly, had all l wanted. Truth
to tell, l had but vague idea what
sic meant, but learned. Happy
that young woman who has the great
social and political questions put be.
fore her with her algebra, music and
French.
She has greater need of them, for if
she did but know it, the decision of
these questions decides if she is to
wear an all wool or shoddy dress,
if sugar is to be cbaep, ifwomen are
to work sixteen hours day and earn
only enough to keep life in a wretch
ed body, if girlhood is to be protec-
ted, if liquor is to be sold to her
brother, husband or son-indeed, if
she is to live in free country or one
sunk under false government. And
she should remembea that however
deep it may drink of misery, the
dregs are for the woman's lips. Let
women find out what is "unwoman-
ly" and avoid it conscientiously,
not what is considered by the world,
"mostly FOOLS" UNIV omanly.
When some one tells you that
knowledge and interest in political
matters does not become you, ask
him if queen is unsexed by her
knowledge of matters of state, if
history covers with contumely one
who sought to uplift and enlighten-
her subjects. Joan of Arc rode
astride her war horse dressed in ar
NOR, but she saved the city. "Yes,"
he will say, "but she was burned at
the stake by and by" True, but if
there had been a host of Joans all
would have been safe, and 1t takes
a wise and fearless woman to inter
pref Alright "the voices" that call
her out to new duties.

THE NEW WOMAN.

o, the Twentieth Century Girl
What wonderful thing she will be
She'll evolve from a mystical whirl
A woman unfettered and free
No corset to crampen her waist,
No crimps to cucumber her brain;
Unafraid, bifurcate, unlaced,
Like goddess of old she will reign
She'll wear boomers matter of course
She will vote, not question of doubt;
She will ride like man on horse;
At the club late at night she'll stay out;
If she chances to love she'll propose
To blush will be quite out of date;
She'll discuss politics with her beaux
And out talk her masculine mate
She'll be up in the science of things;
She will smoke cigarettes she will swear,
If the servant dunning note brings,
Or the steak isn't served up with care.
No longer she'll powder her nose
Or cultivate even a curl,
Nor bother with fashion or Clothes
This Twentieth Century Girl.
Her voice will be heard in the land
She'll dabble in matters of state
In council her words will command,
Her whisper the laws regulate.
She will stand meath her banner unfurled
Inscribed with her principles new
But the question is what in the world
The New Century Baby will do?
