The call for the meeting was signed by
a number OF the members with the under
standing that any action taken on the
senatorial question should not be bind

business IL was decided that the action OF
the caucus should be binding. II was also
decided that a secret ballot should be ta-

The New Woman as a Politician

'Woman's vote will purify politics"
This is the new womans favorite cry.
Not long since a prominent equal suf-
frage lecturer, while earnestly setting
forth this claim and charging on the
shameless manner in which men con-
duct elections, declared that woman's
chaste and refined influence was the
only thing that could change the pres
ent undesirable condition of affairs.
She was not ashamed, however, to re-
late, previous to the close of her lee
ture. that. a short time before, her sis
ter had induced her family's hired man
to vote for a certain measure by pre-
senting him on the eve of election with
a half dozen new shirts, made by her
own hands. The absurdity of this in
cident reached a climax when IL was
noticed that, in a large audience of
women, few see anything wrong in fe-
male bribery. The fair speaker omitted
to inform her audience whether or no
this was to be the prevailing mode of
political publication, when one-half of
the burden of state rest on female
shoulders. But, as women never lack
expedients, some purifying process, less
laborious than shirt-making, may soon
be devised-Mrs. Francis H. Winston,
in the April Forum.
