Woman Built Great Railroad.

Mrs. lane l.. Stanford's death has led
to the recalling of many stories of her
kindness of heart, and the encourage
ment that she gave to her husband, who
was the leader in planning and building
the first railroad across the continent
He once said, off it had not been for
Jane, the Central Pacific would never
have been built The Boston Congre-
gationalist says, "And she could not
vote, either" The Congregationalist
might have added that Mrs. Stanford
wished to vote, and would certainly
have been allowed to do 80 if the ballot
were conditioned on distinguished pub
lie service instead of on the accident of
masculinity.
When woman does a good work even
under the disadvantage of disfranchise-
ment, some oppo nents of equal rights
draw the queer inference that women
do not need the ballot. If an milan
girl manages to make beautiful embroi-
derry with a bit of crooked bone, does
that prove that she ought not to be
allo we'd to use a needle? She probably
would not think So, if she had a chance
to get the needle; and the women who
have rendered the most distinguished
public service without the ballot have
generally been believers in equal suf-
ferage-as, for ms lance, Florence
Nightingale, Clara Barton, Julia Ward
Howe, Mary A. Livermore, Harriet
Beecher Stowe, Jane Adams and Mrs.
Jane L. Stanford.
