WOMEN DO NOT WANT TO VOTE.

have before me six editorials
bearing upon woman suffrage that
have just arrived through the mail
and every one of them assumes, as
an excuse for denying women their
citizens right to the ballot, that
women do not want to vote. Even
editors who claim to believe in the
justice of 1t make this excuse.
Pray, what would you have we
women do to prove that we wanted
the BALLOT You will not let us vote
in order to prove it, except in four
states and in those states the women
have certainly shown that they want
to vote by actually doing SO year
after year in as great proportion,
and sometimes greater that the men.
If you do not believe these women
care for the ballot just try to take it
from them and see what will be the
result.
We have presented more petitions
to onr legislative bodies asking for
the ballot than has ever been pre-
sented upon any other subject in
the history of our Nation.
At the time of the last constitu-
tional Convention in New York
State the women secured petitions
from 600, citizens, II years of
age and above, asking that woman
suffrage amendment be submitted 10
the voters, but the Convention re-
fused to submit it. This was the
only amendment asked for by any
large number of citizens.
Before the women obtained this
mammoth petition the editor of the
New York Sun said. eff the women
secure 100, 900 names the convention
will be Obliged to submit the amend
ment," still they refused to submit
It after the women had secured six
times that number of names.
Last year almost every organiza-
ton of women in the state of
illinois united on suffrage bill and
sent their delegates to the legislature
TO prove that the women did want
to vote, but it was lost just the
same. The same Is true of nearly
every state where women have made
the attempt to secure some form of
suffrage.
In view of all these facts, think
it about time that Women do not
want to vote" is relegated to the
past to keep company with all the
other false prophecies about women,
that have done duty in the past.
We know it is about all there is
left for the opposition and they will
cling to it as drowning man does
to his last and only hope.
We all know this is not the true
reason why men do not give women
the ballot, and we also know that
those who control the votes are
ashamed to give the true reason.

been asked, Sim proceeded to get
supper, which in due time was serv-
ed, and heartily enjoyed. At the
close of the meal | began to ask for

It's about forty feet to the first limb,

On the second limb sits the old
bird, and she is petrified; and,

a president who is unalterably commit ted to the gold standard, but both houses of congress in entire accord with him upon the subject.
 Tn congress and not with the presi- dent rests the supreme power to de- termine the standard of our money. Though the chief executive should op- peso, the congress, acting within it's independent constitutional authority. could at any time overthrow or change the monetary standard.
 "The wisdom of our protective policy finds complete justification in the in- Gus;rial development of the country. This policy has become a most vital part of our industrial system, and must be maintained unimpaired. When al- tered conditions make changes in schedules desirable, their modification can be safely intrusted to the republi- can party. If they are to be changed by the enemies of the system along free trade lines, uncertainty will take the place of certainty, and a reaction would surely follow to the injury Of the wage earners and all who are now prohtably employed. Uncertainty un dermines confidence and loss of con- hdence breeds confusion and distress in commercial affairs.
 "The convention was wise not only in its enunciation of party politics, but in it's nomination Of candidate for the presidency. During the last three years President Roosevelt has been confronted with large and serious questions. These he has met and solved with high wisdom and courage. The charges made against him in q | democratic platform find an irrefut- able answer in his splendid adminis- l traitor. never surpassed in all the his , tory of the republic, and never equall-
 ed by the party which seeks to dis credit it.
 The election of the president is i'm | peratively demanded by those whose success depends upon the continuance of a safe, conservative and efficient ad-
 ministration of public affairs
 We have an ample record of deeds done, of beneficent things accomplish ed in the public interest. The vast business of the government has been well administered. The laws have been enforced fearlessly and impartial ly. The treasury has been adequately supplied with revenue, and the finan-
 cial credit of the government was

MADE INSANE BY FEAR.
Strange Case of Foreman of Gang of
 Pipe Layers at Derby, Conn.

Derby Conn. Aug. 3.-The terrible fear of the unseen inherent in human ity came upon James Barrett and drove him mad as he lay in a 24-inch water main, 300 feet down it's mouth. Barrett was foreman of a gang of pfre layers engaged in laying 1000 feet of 24-inch pipe main from Beaver Lake to the reservoir, in course of construc- tion between Derby and Ansonia
 Barrett, thoroughly tired. physically and mentally, decided to inspect the joints Of the pipe from the inside Working himself forward on his stomach, he succeeded in reaching q point about 800 feet from the opening where he halted to rest.
 He was in the inky darkness and the pipe, covered with a clammy moisture was cold. Not sound from the street above reached him. For an hour his workmen waited for his return. Then fearing something had happened to him, one of them started through the pipe. Three hundred feet in the pipe the worl1men touched the shoes of the unfortunate foreman. Barrett his clothing twisted and torn, lay uncon- scious. By a rope attached to his feet he was hauled to the street. Five min utes later, with q physician bending over him, Baret. became conscious. only to leap to his feet and to attenn- to throttle those nearest to hik1. l. took IS men to restrain the madman. There IS little hope of his mental recovery.
