WORD OF FOUR LETTERS.
United States Far from Republic-
Forp'TWo Reasons Why Women
Cannot Vote.

Mrs. Ida Hustled Herper in her
address at the annual convention of
the National Woman Suffrage AS.
sociation, which has just closed in
Portland, Oregon, gave some facts
which do not rebound to the glory
OF our so-called great Republic.
She said in part
"Ihere are a. strong reasons why
women cannot vote in the United
States. The first and greatest lies
in the National Constitution. the
other ~ are found in the Constitu-
tions of the different States. In
these revered documents one little
word OF four letters, "male," is all
that stands between 10, 900, 900
women and the suffrage.
"Thc religious, the property, the
educational and the color qualifca-
tions have been swept away; but in
the constitutions of all the States
except four, this word "male" still
remains in the suffrage clause, abso-
Iutely prohibiting to all women a
voice in the government. Such is
the situation today in the country
which poses before the world as the
greatest and most perfect Republic
that ever existed, which exults over
all the nations Of the earth as the
only land of equal rights; which de-
clares that its foundation, its corner
stone, the keystone OF It's arch, is
individual representation. The
irony of it. The injustice, the ty-
ranny, disgrace of it,
'In no monarchy is there such
arbitrary discrimination against one
half of the people. There is not
another country having an elected
representative body, where this
body itself may not extend the suf-
frage. Australia, by an act of its
Parliament, enfranchised $50, 900
womtn. The Parliament Of New
Zealand, by single act, conferred
the suffrage on 10000. The Par
Lament OF Great Britain has abso
lutte power TO grant the franchise to
its millions Of women This is true
of all the legislative bodies on the
Continent of Europe. But the Gov
ernment of the United States, in it's
overpowering desire to vest all au-
thority in the people themselves,
has placed one-half of the people in
complete and helpless subsection to
the other half"

them more or less desirable: but

when it comes to lining, and that
falls upon the Gilbert brand. IL

more strictly speaking, the dress,
in fact, it frequently outlasts same.
And, it is as fine to the touch and the
eye as the very best quality of silk

designs and colors, and is much
more reasonable in price.

FRIDAY vs. ELKINS.

Let the Argus man distinctly un-
derstand that the new tax laws, are
Republican laws, endorsed by the
last Republican convention, enacted
by Republican Legislature and be
ing enforced by Republican gov
ernor.
These laws are backed by the Re
publican party of West Virginia.
These laws need no apology by any
Republican.
They are demonstrating their
good qualities every part of these
laws that are now in force are being
eomplimented even by the Demo-
crtat papers of the State. journals
Man Friday.
al did not agree, nor can YOU
find any Republican, who will agree
to everything in the tax laws. Ell.
kins.
The Journals man Friday" says
the tax laws are everything that can
be asked for. According to his
idea they are perfection. They
must not be repealed OF revised in
any way whatever Mr.. Friday"
is anxious that The ARGUS under
stand that the infamous "new tax
laws arc Republican Che means Re.
publican Machine) laws" THE
ARGUS has never disputed that they
were other than Republican Ma
chine laws. But when 'Friday"
says they are satisfactory to the rank
and file of the Republican party we
have only to quote Senator Elkins,
which we have done, to show that
there is not Republican in the
State, unless it be "Friday" and the
Journal, that can subscribe and en-.
dorse he new tax laws. This
should convince any sane person
that Friday" us not capable of dis
cussing tax laws on account OF his
dense ignorance Of the provisions of
the laws. When Senator Elkins ad-
mits that the tax laws arc such that
no Republican in the State can fully
indorse them, he sustains the posi-.
ton OF TuE ARGUS.
The fact is that Senator Elkins
realizes that the new tax laws are SO
unjust and unfair to the farmers
and small property holders that he
feels called upon 10 give out a state
ment that they will he revised and
amended at the next session. 1t is
up TO Friday" to call Senator FL
kns down Tor admitting what TIE
ARGUS has been telling the people
all along.
II "Friday" expects to fool the
people he is sadly mistaken. They
arc perfectly aware, as Senator FL
kins admits, that the tax laws are so
Infamous that even the Republican
Machine is getting ready o de
nounce them.
Poor 'Fnday" had not gotten
the latest tip how to discuss the tax
laws.

Now, If Russia and Japan will
only quit fighting and get right
down to the better business OF max.

that our magnificent President has
exeyted himself in the beautiful work
of trying to make peace, He has
shown hmself pre-emnently, the
man of his vogue, not only In won
derful force in wide and varied prac.
ticable capacities, but infinite tact.
He managed every detail Of that
matter aboard the Maylower most
beautifully, and his country honors
him for the mastery way in which
he did his part. And, expect Mrs.
Roosevelt is the proudcst woman
this side of sundown. She has rea.

in heavier material, and Of dark

The Summer girl is rcvelling in
big white embroidered hats, and
broderie Anglaise or embroidered
tulle gowns, the latter usually worn
over some delicate, becoming color.
Silk gingham is a pretty material for
shirt waist SUIT, trimmed with self
band in Bayadere pattern, and COM
plete 10y a stock of real lace.
Stripes are replacing checks in
dress materials, the very small
stripes being chosen by conservative
ladies. Plain well-ftted tailor coats
will be worn for Fall, in both half
and three-quarter lengths. A charm.
ing costume for early Autumn is of
blue ladies' cloth, and with it is
worn a white tafeta jacket richly
embroidered and completed Ey a
collar Of Irish lace.
Pineapple lawn makes a pretty
party or evening gown, and costs
only thirty cents a yard. Plain
white muslin always makes up well,
launders nicely, and is like new
every time it is washed. A white
muslin gown is very pretty made
with elbow sleeves and rather low
square neck, and trimmed with wee
ruiiles edged with narrow lace. If
desired, the neck may be filed in
with a guimpe Of finely tucked
white organdie.
Hats grow more eccentric in
