SUFFRAGE A FAILURE.
Think About the Womnn's
Rights Question.

Colorado politicians will, almost 10
a man, in private conversation declare
that woman suffrage is a failure and
farce in our state, but one Of them has
the nerve TO say so over his own sig
nature in the newspapers, said Mr.. +.
Il. Graham, leading business man Of
Durango, Col, to a Washington Post
reporter.
"As l do not aspire to Office, there is
no reason for timidity on my part, and
l unhesitatingly declare that the eX-
pertinent Of giving the ballot TO women
in Colorado has been as rank a piece
Of foolishness as any people ever in
ficted upon themselves; il has done a
very little good, perhaps. and a great
deal more Of harm, and, though it may
never be repealed, there is no POSSIBLE
ity of good coming out Of il. The wom-
en- claim that their presence has made
the elections cleaner, but I contend
that they appropriate credit that does
not belong 10 them, for, while the
elections are better conducted than
formerly, the Improvement is due 10
the AuSlrandu system ana not 10 the
women.
THE presence of women in conven-
tions and political meetings is to my
mind degrading 10 them. Surrounded
by a lot Of coarse men whom they
would not elevate or refine in a life
time, they are entirely out Of their ele-
ment. Their vote in no way conduces
to better government than if they were
without the franchise, for they vote on
sentiment, or follow the lead of their
husbands, and so the only result is to
increase the number Of voters. There
are thousands Of good women in the
state who are tired OF the business and
very much regret that the ballot was
ever conferred on their sex.

At last Mr.. Grebault's occupation was
discovered by Mac under circumstances
which will be set forth in detail.
Once a year the resident graduates
and eX-students of Atwater college
(which Mac had attended, came to-
gether at a hotel or restaurant for a
"reunion dinner" Mac received his in
vitation two weeks in advance and be-
gan to economic. The price of the
dinner was three dollars, and he sus-
pected that there would be incidental
expenses which he could not anticipate
In fact, he laid aside five dollars for the
college night, and, as might have been
expected, he had to buy studs for his
shirt and a white tie of the tie-it-your-
self kind
