it in fact be done?
Suppose that in New York city the WON
an should vote for prohibition and the
men should vote against il: is il TO De ex-
pected that the men would arm them
selves to enforce against their fellow men
law which they themselves condemned
as neither wise nor just.
To ask these questions is 10 answer
them. The functions OF government can
not be thus divided
In a democratic community the duty
OF enforcing the law must devolve on
those who determine what the law shall
be that is to be enforced
1t cannot be decreed by one class and
enforced by another. II is inconceivabie
that il should be decreed by some sex and
enforced by the other.
This is the negative reason why wom-
an does not wish the ballot; she does
not wish to engage in that conflict OF
wills which is the essence of politics; she
does not wish TO assume the responsibility
for protecting person and property which
is the esesence of government.
The affirmative reason is that she has
other, and in some sense, more important
work to do.
1t is more important than the work of
government because II is the work for
the protection OF which governments are
organized among men.
Woman does not wish to turn aside
from this higher work. which is itself the
end OF life. to devote herself to govern
ment, which exists only that this higher
work may be done Nor does she wish
to divide her energies between the two

Lyman Abbott on Female Suffrage. Copy
this head-it is the ColonePs.
Below we reproduce the gfst Of Lyman
Abbott's late notable article against WON
en- voting. It was written for the Atlantic
Monthly, and it will be seen to reflect the
views on that question entertained by the
Eagle and the arguments so frequently
employed in these columns during the last
thirty years. Abbott saws:
Open an acorn: in it We find the oak
in all its perts-root, trunk, branches.
Look into the home: in it we shall find
the state, the church, the army, the in
dustrial organization. AS the oak is ger
minant in the acorn. so society is ger
ninant in the family Historically. the
family is the first organization; bioiog-
ically II is the origin of all other organ
fzations.
Abraham builds an altar, and his wife
and children and servants gather about
1t for the evening sacrifice: the family is
the first church
The herds and fiocks are driven daily
to their feeding grounds by his sons and
servants: the family is the first labor or
ganization. His counsels, guides, directs
controls the children and servants; the
power Of life and death is I'm his hands:
the family is the first government.
The brother IS carried off in a raid by
robber bands. Abraham arms and organ
ICES his servants. pursues the robber
bands, conquers and disperses them. and
RECEIVERS the captive: the family Is the
first army.
Moreover. il is out of the family that
society grows AS the cell duplicates it
self and by redupIication the living or
ganism grows, so the family duplicate s.
itself. and by the redup,ication of the
family the social organism grows.
The children of the family come to man
hood and marry the children Of other
families. Blood unites them; the neces-
stiles Of warfare, offensive and defensive,
unite them; and so the tribe comes into
existence
For the united action of this tribe some
rule, some authority is necessary; thus
tribal, state, national government comes
into existence
These families find it for their mutual
advantage to engage In separate indus
tries, and exchange the product of their
labor: thus barter and trade and the
whole industrial organization come into
existence.
These families thus united by marriage
into one tribe. cemented by war into one
army, bound together by the necessity of
united action in one government. cooper
ating in one varied industry, find in them
selves common faith and common aspir-
atoms. in a word. a common religion,
and so the church comes into existence.
Such. very briefly stated, is the devel-
opment of society, as we read 1t in the
complicated history of the past. Historic
ally the family is the first social organ
ization.
Organically il contains within itself all
the elements of all future organization.
The Wichita daily eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1890-1906, 1903-09-27

Bioiogically, all future organiza ton has
grown out of it. by q process of duplica-
ton and Internationally.
| In the family, therefore, we find all the
elements of later and more complicated
social organization: IN the family we may
discover written legibly the laws which
should determine the structure of society
/ and should regulate it's action the fam
ily, rightly understood. will answer our
often perplexing questions concerning So
| cial rganization-whether it is military.
political, industrial or religious.
The fret and most potent fact in the
family is the difference in the sexes. Out
of this difference the family is created:
In this difference the family finds its
sweet and sacred bond.
This difference is not merely physical
and incidental. 1t is also physical and
essential. II inherits in the temperament;
II is inbred in the very fiber of the soul;
1t dinerentiates the functions; ii de,er-
mines the relation between man and wom-
an; it fixes their mutual service and their
mutual obligations.
Man is not woman in a different case.
Woman is not man inhabiting temporar-
lily a different kind of body.
Man is not a rough-and- tumble woman.
Woman is not feeble and piiable man.
This difference in the sexes Is the first
and fundamental fact in the family; }
is therefore the first and fundamental
fact in society, which is but large fam
ily, growing out of and produced by the
ir,4a Lot on of in
Vulnerable families
For Is must ever be remen, bered that
as the nature of the cell determines the
nature OF the organism which grows out
Of the cell. so the nature of the family
determines the nature of society which
grows out of the family.
And the fundamental fact, with which
there could be no family, is the tempera-
mental inherent. and therefore functional
difference between the sexes.
Because their functions are different, all
talk of equality or homeopathy is but
idle words. without n meaning.
Only things which have the same ma
ture and fulfill the same function can be
said to be superior to or equal with one
Il niUeS NHiCu uO lOl Iuiitl the
same function are not thus comparable
For of two functions, each of which is
essential to the life of the organism,
neither can be said TO be superior TO the
other.
One branch may be equal or superior to
another branch; but it cannot be said that
the root is superior to the branch or the
branch to the root.
One eye may be superior to another eve.
but the eve cannot be said to be superior
TO the ear, or the ear TO the eye, Which
is superior. soldier or a carpenter?
1t depends upon whether we want
battle fought or a house built.
Which is superior, Darwin's origin of
species or Browning's Saul? This is like
asking which is larger-haf an hour or
half a yard.

NOT AFRAID OF WORK.
Frank Mohler Tells of Harvest Field
Experience.

Frank Mohler, who will be editor of
the Washburn Review the coming year,
has just returned from Stafford county,
where he has been with about a dozen
other Washburn boys for the last two
months. The crowd went out to work
in the harvest fields and as soon as that
work was finished they formed a thresh-
ing crew and have been at work ever
since. They were sorry when the work
got slack. Mr. Mohler will assist in
the state department of agriculture dur
ing the rush of statistical work.
Mr.. Mohler says that a Michigan uni
versity young man, Charles Fredericks,
fell in with a harvest crowd early in
the summer while he was on the train
bound for Colorado. His father is
wealthy and he was going to the noun
tains for an outing The young men
in the crowd that was bound for the
harvest fields told him how harvesting
hardens the muscles, and about the
glorious sunrise and invigorati ting air of
the Kansas prairies. Fredericks plays
on the Ann Arbor football team, and he
got enthusiastic and concluded to try
harvesting himself instead of Colorado,
and he stopped off in Stafford county
with the rest of the crowd. His muscles
were soft and at the end of three days
he was about played out, but he stay
ed with the work and finally grew to
liking it so we'll that as soon as the
harvesting was over he went on a
threshing machine and is still at it.

CLASH OVER ALASKA.
Much Contention in the Trans
mississippi Congress.

Seattle, Wash, Aug H.-Today is the
last day of the fourteenth annual session
of the Mississippi Commercial con-
gress. in many respects the most Sue
cessfully session in the history of that or
ganization. On account of the great mass
of business to be transacted this after
noon and number of prepared addresses
yet to be delivered, it is possible that it
will be necessary to hold final session
this evening or tomorrow in order to COM
plete the programme and conclude the
business.
The feature of the programme for this
afternoon is the visit of the delegates to
the Moran Bros. ship yards, where the
battleship Nebraska is in course of con-
struction.
This morning the convention proceeded
with the discussion of Alaska and its
needs which was continued over from
yesterday afternoon. This has aroused a
greater amount of discussion than any
other subject brought before the congress.
The differences of opinion to the de-
STABILITY of a territorial form of govern
ment for the district and the positiveness
and determination with which the parti-
sans on the other side express their views
have served to attract a large number of
spectators.
