PROHIBITION AND WOMAN sUF-
FRAGE.
Chicago Chronicle.)

Cook county Prohibitionists have re-
fused in convention to put woman
suffrage plank in their platform. This
Is a reversal of their traditions.
Their refusal was due not to a change
of mind about suffrage as a political
privilege for both sexes, but to a new
belief that one difficult issue Is enough
at a time in a political platform.
"You will never get prohibition until
you give us vote" shouted delegate
from among the women, and the asser-
tion carried the minority, 1t Ia reported,
into an ecstasy Of applause.
Is 1t true that extension Of the suf-
frage to women means adoption Of pro-
hibition? The affirmative reply has
generally been given and 1t Is based on
the ground that, as women suffer most
in domestic life in consequence Of
drunken husbands, women would uni
versally vote for prohibition.
Plausible abstractly, the inference
will not stand the test of practical eX-
animation.
Take Chicago as a typical American
community. The majority of It's people
are descendants Of nations not addic-
ted to drunkenness, but all habituated
to moderate consumption Of beverages
liable to intoxicate IL consumed to ex-
cess. If women suffrage were our law,
an overwhelming majority Of the wo-
men of Chicago would vote against
prohibition.
The continental races would no more
readily vote against reasonable liberty
of wine and beer than the British or
Irish against reasonable indulgence in
tea and coffee. Native American wo-
men, the Irish born and irish descent,
would vote in large numbers for pro-
hibition, because they have seen so
much of the evils of iptemperance,
Their minority vote would he submerg-
ed in a majority ballot by women for
regulation of the liquor traffic.
If local option were the law the wo-
man vote would be practically unani-
nous for prohibition in some neighbor-
hoods. 1t would be impossible today to
make any great American city wholly
prohibitional IL only women voted
Among native American women the
drinking habit Is on the increase. Wo-
men apparently well to do, in perfect
health, and wholly at leisure, do not
hesitate to order and consume cocktails
In public restaurants, nor to follow the
full wine course at pretentious dinners.
A crusade against intemperance Is
more needed today in the luxurious
plane Of American society than in the
slums.
Woman suffrage can no longer be
reckoned certain ally of legislation
for prohibition Of the liquor traffic.

STEPPED into A DITCH.
Dangerous Predicament of a
Horse Driven Along North
Cherry Street.

An accident which might have re-
suited fatally occurred in North Cherry
street, near Pennsylvania avenue. about
8 o'clock Tuesday night to George Kopp,
residing at s21 Connotton alley. Kopp
was driving UP the street when his
horse stepped into ditch which remain
ed uncovered. Kopp was badly shaken
UP but sustained no serious Injuries.
The wagon was not damaged, but 1t
required the assistance of several men
to extricate the horse. The bitches and
mounds Of earth on this street have
been brought to the attention Of the
city council on several occasions, and
recently instructions were given the
parties who opened the bitches to be
careful in recovering them promptly.
