M. BaraklIs was recently instructed by
King George TO go TO Selino to intervene

The Vice Consul insisted upon going in

AGAINST SUFFRAGE.
Defeat of the Amendment TO Enttfse
Women to Vote.

Defeat of the Amendment TO EntHSe
Women to Vote.
SACRAMENTO, CAL, March S.-The
woman's suffrage amendment was de-
feated in the Assembly tonight after q
spirited debate. Dryden led the debate
and said that the women in the campaign
last fall absolutely lifted the question out
OF the di1t of politics. They had shown
by their conduct OF the campaign that
they could purify politics and make the
act of voting a respectable one. He asked
why had women been denied the right.
and he gave the answer that the denial
was ne to prejudice arising out OF the old
idea of woman's inferiority to man be-
cause she had been the first to sin. This
doctrine could be traced down all through
the ages that woman was made as helper
to man, and "she had been made to chop
wood, bake bread and dress kids" from
time inimemoriaL
You were asked last fall" he added,
"to get upon the platform and give rea-
son why women should not have the right
OF suffrage, but you did not because you
had no reasons"
The speaker mentioned Mrs. Leland
Stanford, the owner of large properties.
While old, greasy Shacknasty Jim, who
does not own anything but his clothes,
can walk up to the ballot box and vote to
tax her property, she is denied either
voice or vote in The matter.
Dryden made stirring appeal and was
greeted with handciapping.
Treacy moved the previous question
and Toland at the same time attempted
to Introduce a substitute which was
kindly intended to kill or cripple the
amendment. The substitute was not con-
sidered and the roll was called. The
amendment was defeated by vote Of A
ayes to % noes, being ten votes short OF
the required two-thirds.
Leavitt and Toland explained that they
had voted against the amendment be-
cause the people had defeated the propo-
sltion at the polls last fail. Toland said
that his substitute provided TO give women
the right of suffrage for fourteen years, at
the end OF which time the right would ex-
pire. Canavan of San Francisco said that
he voted aye and he had no apology to
make. Cross of Los Angeles said that he
voted no because the women did not desire
the ballot.

day. Can you continue hearing until to-
morrow morning? George a. Knight"
Senator Seawel explained that he and
Aram had been unable to find Dickinson,
and considered it best to refer tho matter
to the Senate, and let it do with it as it
thought best. He added that the parties
in interest were prepared to go ahead, but
as knight had been selected to make the
presentation of the case before the Senate,
they preferred to have a continuance OF
the matter until tomorrow.
Senator Dickinson, after apologizing for
participating in the debate at all. owing
to the fact of being chairman of the COM
mittee, yet thought it proper to state that
on Friday last continuance was granted
until Monday with the understanding
that the matter should proceed this after
noon. He concluded as follows:
II would not have stated this if another
member of the com mittee had not particl-
pated in the matter. / have nothing more
to say"
Senator Mahoney IN owed that the matter
pe continued until IL o'clock tomorrow
morning.
Senator Morehouse objected to any
lultner poStponcueht oi wv I'o"
George A. knight and Andrew j. Clunie
were present. and they were as as able at
torneys as there were in the State. he
caused ripple of laughter by referring to
the latter gentleman as my belligerent
little friend, Mr.. CIunie."
Wolfe favored the motion to postpone,
while Simpson took strong ground against
it. Among other things he said: my
convictions are that this is just what they
want to do-to carry on the proceedings OF
this investigation beyond the line OF the
Legislature, in the hope that it will then
be dropped"
The motion to postpone was carried by
a vote of 10 to l6. the much wrought up
and disappointed audience quietly filtered
out and ordinary business was resumed.
