WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

This space belongs to the Equal
Suffrage Club, which is labor
ing for the success of the proposed
amendment to the Idaho constitu-
ton giving women the right of suf-
frage. It is paid for and edited by
members of this Club. The Elk
AMINER, therefore, has nothing to
say concerning the articles appear.
ing under the above head.
Municipal Suffrage Ina England
There are in Great Britain 200,-
600 women householders, who have
had municipal suffrage fer many
years. Mr. Gladstone says they
have exercised it without detri-
ment, and with great advantage"
Between two-thirds and three
fourths of these women voters occu-
ply houses that rent for less than
800 year; and there is in England
no educational qualification for suf-
frage. It is doubtful, therefore,
whether the mass of the English
women entitled to municipal suf-
frage are more intelligent than the
average American woman who can
read and write.
AS municipal suffrage in Eng
land is limited to single women
and widows, the experience of Eng
land cannot be used to answer the
objection that the ballot would
make discord between husband and
wife; but it furnishes a conclusive
answer to most of the other obiec-
tons, such as that of women's char
acter would be deteriorated, that
they would lose the respect of men,
etc. It is TO be noted that Lady
Randolph Churchill and the band
of highly conservative English
women who, few years ago, sent
to Parliament a remonstrance
against full suffrage, were careful
to explain that they had no objec-
ton to municipal suffrage, and
even thought its responsibilities
had exerted a beneficial effect on
the characters of women. A. 8. B.

a short time ago Mr.. Bryan, Demo
pop candidate for president, was speak
in Ackley, Iowa, when one of the lect-
urers asked the question: MIR. Bryan,
will the adoption of the free
coinage of silver at the ratio of 10 to /
cause a business depression and panic,
as Secretary Carlisle and other great
fnanciers predict" Mr.. Bryan an
swered promptly as follows: Eyes, in
my opinion, it would have that tend
ency. But if a man is sick there is no
use putting off giving him his medicine
and letting him get worse. ! think it
will cause panic. But the country is
in a deplorable condition, and it will
take extreme measures to restore il to
a condition of prosperity" This DELHI
erately counting panic and business
depression in order to cure it after
wards, is an odd kind of financial
vagary.

a prominent southern Democrat said
the other day in New York: 1--WE want
to push our products into all the mar
kets of the world, and the only thing
which stands in the way of our so do
ing is the high price of our labor.
Everything that we make has come
down in price. But while everything
else has declined in cost, our labor still
sticks at the old prices, and there doesn't
seem TO be any way TO bring labor
down except through some sort of a
protracted revolution. Free silver,
however, would solve the questi on in
an hour. 1t wouldn't advance the
price of any kind of labor, because all
labor is now at imitation prices, and
just as high as it would be under any
conditions. But il free silver were
adopted, we would pay labor in 5O-cent
dollars. That would cut labor in two
at once, thus fetching it down to the
plane of everything else. This accom-
plished, we would be in shape TO sue
cessfully compete with England or any
other country for the markets of the
world"

THE democratic party will be able,
perhaps, to pass an income tax law
that will hold water when it can pack
the supreme court, as it shows de-
sire to do by the declarations of its
platform against "life tenure in Of
flee" Whatever else the American
people may be willing to do in the
way of giving the spells to the VIC
tors, it is safe to say that they will
not prostitute the supreme court by
placing it in the realm of partisan po-
litics.

REJOICING over the nomination of
K. l.. Hamilton for congressman, the
Sentinel predicts that he will have a
round thousand majority in Van Bu-
rem County. We should think so,
and good deal more than that, else
he might be in danger of defeat. A
like per cent of decrease from the
vote of '94 would lose him his own
county and Barry and only save Cass
and St. Joseph by the narrowest of
margins. We know no good reason
why Mr.. Hamilton should have only
a paltry 1000 majorityin Van Buren,
County in 1896 when Thomas carried
by over $500 in '94. If that were to
be the comparative ratio of republic
can vote throughout the state, Michi-
gan would surely 60 for Bryan and

The democratic party in its nation
al platform declares that it is "op-
posed to any further agitation for
further changes in our tariff laws un-
til the money question is settled"
We do not wonder at it. The tariff
policy of the democracy is SO odious
to the American people that any ag-
itation of it is bound to make repub-
)ican votes. The majority of the
people, however, are protectionists,
as is evidenced by the result of the
elections of '94, and they are bound
to return 10 the protective system.
The tariff is the paramount issue.
There is no hope for any tariff changes
in the direction of protection except
through the republican party. We
do. not believe that the American
people will vote for the abominable
triplet, free trade, free silver and
anarchy.

From the Globe-Democrau

From the Clobe-Democrat
The free silver orators, Mr.. Bryan
included, are constantly proclaiming
that their purpose is TO restore the
old order of things that existed be-
fore lS73-to right monstrous wrong
and make the situation what it was
prior to the preparation of that
wrong. They tell US, in other words,
that the demand for the free and un-
limited coinage of the white metal at
the ratio of l6 TO ! represents a
patriotic desire for return to the
money of the fathers, ''the dollar of
daddies," as they are fond of putting
it. But the fact is that this claim on
their part is false and dishonest.
They are not aiming TO bring pack
the old order of things. The ratio of
l6 to / which they pretend TO hold
in so much reverence does not mean
the restoration of the money OF the
fathers. They do not for a moment
contemplate result OF that kind.
The ''dolIar of the daddies," the sill
yer dollar that existed previous to
1873, was worth s1.03, and the dol
lar they propose to give us would be
worth only 53c. Instead of wishing
to provide the country with an abun-
dance of the old kind of dollars, they
desire to flood it with a new kind of
dollars that would pass for only
about one half of their nominal value.
If these glorifiers of the old order
Of things could restore the conditions
that prevailed previous to 1873, and
make the market value of silver what
it was then, they would not want
free coinage. There would be moth
ing in it for them. They could do
better by selling their silver in the
form of bullion than by having it
coined into dollars. What they
really want is cheap money, kind
of money with which creditors can be
cheated. They are not trying to put
silver back to it's old place, and re-
establish the monetary system that
existed before the "great crime" was
committed. Their scheme does lot
imply the coinage of better dollars
than those that they now have, but
infinitely poorer ones, which can be
used in the payment of debts at the
ratio of 53c on the dollar. That is
what the ratio Of 16 to / means when
plainly interpreted. Instead of stand
ing for the restoration Of former
and an honest observance
of contracts and obligations, it signi
fies a resort to reputation. a scaling
of debts to the extent of 41c on the
dollar. That is its principal merit
in the eyes of those who are doing
the loudest talking for it. When
they dwell upon what they call the
Of the ratio of 10 to |,
they are thinking only of the oppor-
tunity that it affords for those who
owe given sums of good money to
make settlement in equal sums of
inferior money, and thus profit by
species of manifest and fragrant dis
honesty.

his eastern campaigning trip. The
