Let Nc State Few Reasons Why Colorado
Women Should Be Actively Iuter-
estsd IN This Campaign.
There are greater reasons why women
of Colorado should be interested in the
campaign of 1000 than any campaign
since their enfranchisement. Why?
There is more at stake nationally. Yes
there is more at stake than in any cam
paign since Abraham Lincolns time.
On one side are arrayed the platform
and ticket that stands tor single gold
standard, for the protection of trusts.
monopolies and vast corporations, with
all the misery and degradation they bring
for imperialism and militarism. each and
all menace good government and the
home. On the other side are arrayed
the platform and ticket that represent
the double standard of money, the coin.
age of both gold and silver at the ratio
of I6 toll; that favors legislation that
will eliminate trusts and monopolies for
ever from this country and protect the
toiling masses and make the United
States nation of homes. These people
are as surely Gods people as are the
better educated and the wealthy.
Have we not as WON'T duty in their
behalf? 1t Mckinley is elected he will
be under obligation to organized capital
for his election, and he will in the future
be as he has been in the past, controlled
by capital, and in the face of all the
misery brought to, and the injustice
done the human race, directly through
the trusts, he will never the less be their
slave.
If Bryan is elected he will be the
choice of the people elected by the
middle class, and those who toll and
struggle now to help make the rich

themselves.
Bryan will be free to carry out his con-
victions of right and wong, and there is
no question but that he will be after
election as now, friend of the people.
But you say, What could Bryan d,
alone?" Nothing, but he would have be-
hind him majority of the people of this
nation. His cabinet would be composed
of men of his own political faith. and
with his election would unavoidably
come the election OF large number of
senators and congressman to whom we
must look for laws that will emancipate
the working men and women of America
from the letters of bondage. He could
enforce the laws against trusts which are
now on the statute books.
Today thousands and tens of thou
sands of women in the United States are
raising families, keeping their own
homes, and at the same time 60 out to
labor to help their husbands maintain
their families and educate their children.
Conditions are all wrong or this would
not be necessary in 80 many thou sands
of instances.
In our own commonwe alth look at the
bright, intelligent men who. because of
low wages and high prices. cannot sup
port their families and educate them. In
many cases the older children are de-
prived of liberal education, to assist in
making the living. When women must
needs be the bread winners. say you that
they should not be interested in all that
tends to bring about these conditions?
