Upon woman herself. voting has had
a far from refining influence. She has

the world more. A woman takes her
r'Olitics hard.
But the most revolving Side of the
suffrage problem is seen in women
politicians-women who solicit votes,
who seek office, who lobby and who in
every way politically aspire. At first
women confined their political ambi-
ton to the promoting of the prohibition
movement, but when they found how
unpopular the dry cause was they con-
scented to enter a wider field.
As political workers women have
been Enthusiastically successful. One
half the lobbyists in Colorado are wo-
men, it is said. Instead of henpecked
husbands there are henpecked senators
senators who look anxious when they
see the female lobbyist appearing. This
is where woman shines as a politician.
for her method is like that of Fabius.

When she determines to talk Il senator
into voting for a bill she is as persistent
as a book agent. The work of solicit
ing votes is confined almost entirely to
women. AS an active politician, a wo-

Part of the programme of political
reform which the woman voter mapped

making of laws is very complicated. 1t
is even more bewildering than scratch

mess of proving that

1t is a business in which reputable

but the other class, operating in collu

a reign of terror for the rich; for no

a female claimant to part of his es-

prove that there has been some sort

I The fact that the department of JUS
tice could not see it's way clear to ac-
cept the recommendation of incoming
District Attorney Nave that Mr.. John b.
Wright of Tucson be appointed his as
sistant cannot, of course, be construed
as a reflection on Mr.. Wright, for the
selection of Mr.. Campbell meant sim
ply, that the department preferred to
have the services of an old and ex-
perienced employee. But republicans
throughout the territory. while conced-
ing the fitness of Mr.. Campbell will re-
gret that the department did not have
sufficient acquaintance with Mr.. Wright
to accept Mr.. Nave's nomination. John
b. Wright is a strong. able lawyer, OF
unquestioned integrity, and is one OF
the deserving young republicans OF the
territory. His distinguished father.
who a little more than year ago was
called in his prime from earth. was one
of the most Intellectual men in the ter
ritory, one Of its foremost lawyers. and
one of its most beloved citizens. and in
his death the party lost a champion
who will be missed for years to come.
His son worthily bears the name, and
had he been called to the post of

it would have caused a feeling of sat

The discussion of the bill appropriat-
ing s1Ss, S42, go for pensions for the next

The discussion of the bill appropriat-
ing $3.50, S42,250 for pensions for the next
fiscal year brought out
SPANISH the remarkable fact
WAR that a large nronor-
PENSIONERS. ton of the soldiers
who enlisted for the
Spanish-American war are already APP
plicants for pensions. For the fiscal
year 1901 there was paid s1,175, 225. on
account of pensions growing out of the
Spanish-American war. Up to the close
of 1901 1886 applications had been
made and 1904 allowed. Since then
something like $4,000 applications, or
about 20 per cent of all who We're in
the Spanish war, have been made
Seven years after the close of the civil
war only 6 per cent of those engaged
had made applications for pensions.
although the number of those shot and
l.mangled in various ways was vastly
larger than in the Spanish war. The
close of the latter dates back but three
years. and yet 20 per cent of the vol
unteers have been spurred on by the
pension sharks to apply to be put on
the pension rolls.
The sum paid out on account of pen
sions growing out OF the Spanish war.
81. .225. is but the beginning. This
represents 1904 cases, but as the cases
increase the sum will be increased rap
idly and probably indefinitely.
AS nearly as can be calculated, three
fourths of al living survivors of the
war of the rebellion are now drawing
pensions. The invalid pensioners on the
rolls, June 60 1901. on account of the
war of the rebellion, numbered 1876, 7S9
According to the estimates of the war
department, there were living at that
date $685. survivors of the rebellion.
1t has been proposed to give service
pensions to the remaining 229524 sur
vivors. pension al the rate of 50
per month for these survivors would
cost s13, III. 44O per annum-no great
amount as compared with the total. AS
the youngest survivor has passed his
fiftieth year, the mortality of pension
ers in the next ten years is likely to be
heavy, but the reductions in numbers
would not necessarily reduce the pen
sion payments, for with advancing
years. the pensioners demand higher
ratings.

Notwithstanding the fact that wo-
men have been voting in Colorado for
number OF years, the
WOMAN question is still debated
SUFFRAGE as intensely in that
IN. state as elsewhere as to
COLORADO. whether equal suffrage
is a success or a failure.
There is hardly occasion for surprise at
this. however, for the new system is
such a late innovation, comparatively,
that those who predicted its failure are
SIN inclined. naturally. to look for de-
velopments which will sustain the po-
sitioa fer which they long
ccntended. This is human nature.
Man is fond of saying that wo-
man convinced against her will
Is of the same opinion STILL" but
there are few men who are not open
to the same Indictment. On the other
hand. those who predicted the unquali-
1eG success Of equal suffrage, are as
little disposed to admit that they are
disappointed. The unbiased citizen
finds it very difficult, therefore, to arrive
at the uncolCred facts.
Perhaps it would not be far out of the
way to say that all the evidence at
hand sustains the assumption that po-
Itical and social conditions in our
neighboring state are not materially
better or worse by reason of the adj
vent of women into the ranks of voters.
It is interesting, however to note the
oiustic comments Of a Denver CORE
spcndent Of the New York Evening
Pest on the alleged failure of woman
suffrage to work the REFORMS in the
Centennial state that had been SO freely
pIophesied, although it is clear that
the correspondent is too Geepiy preju-
diced to give a thoroughly fair account
o; the situation. He is Convinced that
divorces abound" by reason of wo-
mans participation in politics, that
horne ties have been greatly ioosened
that children do not receive the home
training that they formerly had, and
that the best element will not exert
the influence it should; and he specifies
among many ether things:
Curiousiy enough, the woInan's ballot
las worked against the cause if its
creation and today those states which
are politically the most corrupt are
these where women vote. i large i'm

the higher ideals. This result might be
at least partially averted il ali women
could be induced to vote, but a large
percentage of the better class of wo-
I"en, for selfish or other easons, shuu
the polls. This leaves the woman vote
an uncertain quantity. it is estimated
that in Colorado there are only one
third as many women as men voters.
Equal suffrage has not even fulfilled
the hopes that it held out to it's parti-
