tent to settle this question. We do not
ask this because we lack faith in the
manhood of the country, but because
we lack faith in the vote of the newly
made citizens, the men who come from
the old world, who know nothing OF
our public institutions, and who have
not been reared in our spirit of free
dom.
We are not assuming that all women
desire the ballot. All women do not
desire any one good thing. There are
some women who desire no good thing
at all. There are some women who
are not seeking the very best in any
relation of life. If we had waited for
a majority of the women of our nation
to demand higher education, when do
you suppose the doors of our colleges
would have been opened 10 them?
Dire results have been predicted at
every step of radical progress. When
women first enjoyed higher education,
the cry went out that the home would
be destroyed. 1t was said that if all
women were educated, all women
would become bluestockings, and if all
women became bluestockings all wom-
en- would write books. and If all wom-
en- wrote books what would become
of the homes, who would rear the chill
dren? But the schools were opened
and women entered them, and it has
been discovered that the intelligent
woman makes wise mother better
home maker, and a much more de-
sirable companion, friend and wife than
a woman who is illiterate, whose in
telectua: horizon is narrowed by the
circuit of embroidery and the minuet.
The larger intellectual powers of
women and the greater financial nde-
pendence of women have tended to ele
yate the home. There is nothing in lib
erty which can harm either man or
woman. There is nothing in justice
which can work against the best good
of humanity: and when on the ground
of eXpediency this measure is OPP
posed in the words of Wendell Phil
lipps, "whateyer is Just, God will see
that it is expedient." There is no
greater inexpedicncy than injustice.
We do not claim that the millennium
will come when we are enfranchised,
but we do claim that the millennium
will not come until justice is done to
all mankind. We do not ask the bal
lot because we do not believe in men,
or because we think men unjust or un
fair. We do ask to speak for ourselves
because we believe men unwilling to
speak for US. but because men by their
very nature never can speak for wom-
en-. 1t would be as impossible for all
men to understand the needs of women
and care for their interests as it would
be for all women to understand the
needs of men and care for the interests
of men. SO long as laws affect both
men and women, men and women to-
gether should make those laws.

A pretty June wedding was solemnized
in Trinity Church last evening, when Miss
Esther Elizabeth Barnard, daughter Of
Colonel d. p. Barnard OF Tenth and
Washington streets, was married to Viii.
liam T. Watson of Baltimore. The

palms and flowers. Bishop Coleman. as
sisted by the Rev. H. Ashton Henry. per-
formed the ceremony. Colonel Barnard
gave the bride away.
She was attended by Miss Elizabeth

the BRIDE and Miss Beatrice Brecken-
ridge OF Baltimore The best man was

ing the right of suffrage and full po-
| litical rights. They show as marked
ability, as discriminating sense of
duty, in the exercise of their political
rights, as do their fathers, husbands or
brothers. They have sought Office to
| u very limited extent, yet they exer-
else their right of suffrage as general
ly and as inteligcntly as do the men
of the state. They have filled many
places of responsibility, some elective,
others appointive, The possession of
political rights has opened many
places of employment to women which
otherwise would be closed.
The advantages have been many. A
disorderly primary meeting in Wy
oming is unknown, the elections are
quiet, the most modest woman feels
perfectly free at the polling booth or
to serve as an election officer.
All good reforms move slowly. It
takes discussion, agitation and educa-
tion to remove a long-standlng preJu-
dice and conviction. but woman suf-
frage has come to stay where it has
been adopted. and it will make head
way and will eventually, | believe, en-
compass all of the states. No other ex-
tension of suffrage ever made has
brought so much advantage and so lit
tie disadvantage.

beginning of the battle his regiment
was stationed on hill with the re-
serves. The smoke hid the battlefield;
they could not see what was going on,
and the screaming of the shells was
so terrible that he found himself
trembling with fear. After awhile the
smoke blew away, and they could see,
on hill opposite, other reserves, in
Guiding the Eighteenth Indiana. Pres
emily the other reserves were ordered
down.
Down they came, like one man till
the masked batteries opened fire on
them. The grape and canister tore
through them, moving great swaths.
On they went, keeping step and time,
making their way around great
mounds of dead. And the Twentieth
Indiana watched in agony the slaugh-
ter of their comrades and friends. and
the major cried 20 God, why don't
they call us reserves into action? We
could charge down the hill and spike
those guns"
think of this as read the papers; 7
think of it as go among the slums, /
sayto myself: 20 God,why do not these
beloved men, the halves of ourselves,
call on us, their reserves? We could
save them" The same lesson comes
to us from our sick and wounded SOL
diers; it comes to us in all work for
the uplifting of society. 1t is this
that makes me-now facing my
eightieth birthday-still keep asking

with state prison convicts, but with
the men of our own households, whom
we have helped to make and rear
