UNIVERSAL SUFFRAGE.

1t is often said, by the opponents of wom-
an suffrage, that we have already too large
a number of voters, and that government by
limited suffrage would show much better re-
suits / wonder whether such people realize
what they saying-whether they know
that they are announcing that, In their opin-
ion. government of, for and by the people
is impossible, and that our ideal has been
placed too high for our attainment. Univer-
sal suffrage, to me, means the right Of ev
cry man and woman who Is mentally able to
do so, and who has not forfeited the right
by an Ill use Of ii, to say who shall rule
them, and what action shall be taken by
those rulers upon questions of moment.
WHO has not forfeited the right" 1 say,
for the right can be forfeited as can that to
liberty. or to almost any other so-called
natural right" In old English common
law high treason is partly defined as giving
aid and comfort to the Kings enemies. With
US, where the people have taken the place
of the King, there can be no such aid and
comfort given to their enemies as through
any attempt to debauch the suffrage. The
democratic principle demands the life dis
franchisement Of any one convicted of CIV
ing or receiving a bribe to influence the re-
suit of an election. The right of a man or
woman to self-government is so vital. so
sacred, that tampering with II cannot be
visited with too heavy penalties. The saying
that eternal vigilance is the price of liberty
is as true to-day as it ever was but we are
not willing to pay that price, and, therefore,
the disgraceful condition of affairs In our
cities is what IL is to-day. But the fault is
not. primarily, with the ignorant masses; 1t
lies with the intelligent voters. the men who
should be leaders, but who have willfully dis
limited suffrage, or, in other words, for the
benefits of democratic government without
its necessary duties.
1t has never. to my knowledge. been sug-
gested that peoples government could be
carried on without work or without a great
deal of sacrifice. The principle Of universal
suffrage, like every other high IDEAL will
not run alone. 1t carries duties with it,
duties which are imperative, and to shirk
which is flching benefits without rendering
an equivalent. When one hears men deliber-
ately vowing that their private interests
win suffer II they perform their public du-
ties, or women pleading against the be-
stowal of the suffrage lest they lose certain
legal privileges which place them on a par
with children in their teens. one realizes how
far the ideal still is from u.s. and one looks
for the handwriting on the wall: Meme,
meme, tekel, upharsin''-"thou art weighed
In the balance and art found wanting
