THE MOVEMENT AND INDIvID-
IIAIS

One grows weary of this talk of
"woman's injustice to women" The
latest use of this stereotyped remark Is
in regard to the Phoebe Couzins" plight"
Why should the women suffragists bear
any "reproach" because they failed to
assist a woman who Is in want? Do
the Republicans or Democrats use any
of the fund subscribed for political pur-
poses to assist some man who has work.
ed for their party and Is in need? OF
course not. Then why should the suff-
ragists be censured for not helping from
a fund which does not belong to them
personally? If Miss Anthony does not
deem it her duty to lend assistance from
her own purse she cevtainly has good
reason for not doing SO. Selfishness
can hardly be one of Miss Anthony's
faults, and Miss Couzins' severe words
in regard to Miss Anthony and suffra-
gists in general show a spirit of antag-
onism which does not call forth much
sympathy. Now I would like to ask
the would-be critics, what has the Re-
publican party done for Anna Dickin-
son? What has the colored race done
for her? She who gave the best years
of her life to the Republican party and
to the cause of freedom for her brother
in black. Where are hearts of that
race today that they are not touched
by the bitter dregs she is drinking?
Have they no thought of her suffering
| and humiliation? In the service she
gave them and the Republican party
there was no thought for her own polit-
ical freedom, and yet she is forgotten.
| We could name many instances where
woman's services have loen accepta-
BILE to men to help parties to victory,
| and their work relegated to oblivion
| when success was achieved. Some who
| gave their time and strength during the
| 1;V
congress for a meagre pension, that they
might be kept from starvation, but their
appeals were in vain. The voteless voice
cannot speak loud enough to be heard
in congressional halls. I am truly glad
Miss Couzins is to receive aid, simply
because she is human being, and not
because she worked for her own liberty
| for few years. Woman suffrage is
not a reform movement Women are
asking for what is their own-a God
given right withheld.

PROGRESS OF THE CAMPAIGN.

Everything booming all along the
line" writes a friend from the state
headquarters of the Woman Suffrage
association in San Francisco. And the
watchword sent back is, LOS Angeles
county is in the front rank, as usual"
Many of our best friends, perhaps, do
not know that this last assertion Is pos
itively true, but the pioneers in the work
can vouch for it's accuracy. Los An
geles county was the first county to
hold a mass convention after the elev-
enth amendment was submitted (April
27, 1885. From this convention was
elected the first county campaign conf
mittee in the state. 1t was the hrst
county to arrange for system or con-
tributions to campaign fund (after-
ward adopted by the state association,
and the first county to formulate a
perfect plan of precinct parlor meet

more names than any other county 10

title of "the banner county in petition
work"
The Woman Suffrage campaign COM

any visitor will see by a casual glance
into it's headquarters in the Byrne

The Missouri Madness.

The Missouri Democratic platform de- mands the free and unlimited coinage of silver and gold'' at the ratio of 16 to 1, without waiting for the action or approval of any other government
 It rests this demand on the assertion that from the beginning of the govern ment, following policy formulated by Thomas Jefferson and firmly established by Jackson, the Democratic party has been the party of bimetallism. But what are the facts?
 The bimetallism of Jefferson and Jackson was based upon coinage ratio representing the ratio of actual value The silver and gold dollars they favored were worth the same The bimetallism of the Missouri convention proposes sil- yer dollars worth about one-half gold dollar each. The bimetallism of Democ- raey was honest The bimetallism of the Missouri platform proposes a swindle of 30 per cent.
 Under existing restrictions we have the largest and best bimetallism ever known ill any country. We are using silver equally with gold and more large ly than any country in the world ever did when using gold at all. And we are keeping all these silver dollars on par with gold. What the Missouri conven- tion proposes is that we shall abolish the restrictions that have thus made bi- metallism possible, abandon the use of gold, reduce the value of money one- half, cheat all creditors, public and pri- vate, cut down the purchasing power of wages and substitute cheap dollar monometallism for the honesb dollar bi- metallism we have.
 If there is any method in this mad ness, it is the method of men bent upon the ruin of their party.-New York World

GIVING HIS WHOLE CASE AWAY.
MT. Crisp Admits That Gold Is the Stand
 ard of Yalue.

MT. Crisp Admits That Gold Is the Stand
 ard of yalue.
 In his Atlanta debate with Secretary Smith ex-Speaker Crisp attempted to answer the objection of the sound money advocates against the 50 cent dollar by saying: 1T tell you, my friends, that do not want the free and unlimited coinage of silver unless the bullion in silver dollar is worth as much as the bullion in gold dollar. All this rot about cheap money is a sub terfuge of those who are interested in maintaining the dearest kind of money. ,
 Mir. Crisp has for years been clam bring for free silver on the ground that gold has Mncreased in value and is too scarce and dear to serve as money, and has urged the necessity of having "cheaper money for the people, as against dear money for the bankers. Yet he now says that he only wants free coinage under the condition that the bullion ill silver dollar shall be worth a dollar i'll gold. This is exactly what Thomas Jefferson favored when he ad- vised that the ratio between gold and silver be fixed as nearly as possible at the commercial value of the two metals. It is what the believers i'll an honest dollar have always insisted on. A free coinage law which should put a hun dred cents' worth of silver ill each dol lar would not injuriously affect our pres- ent sound financial system
 But what becomes of Mir. Crisp's promise that under free silver the peo- pie would have cheap money? If a gold dollar is teo dear to be used to measure values, how would a silver dollar which is worth just as much be any cheaper? The commercial value of silver is now about 30 to 1. If MT. Crisp is honest in saying that he wants the bullion in a silver dollar to be worth as much as the bullion ill gold dollar, he would have to coin the two metals i'll 30 to 1 ratio. How would that shatter the hated money power?
 Mir. Crisp warned his Atlanta hearers against the people who are interested in maintaining the dearest kind of money. When he talks of coining silver dollars with bullion value equal to gold dollar, does he not admit that gold is the standard and that he wants to have our silver money just as valuable as gold?
