NEW MILITIA REGULATIONS.


Washington, June 12.-Acting Sec
rotary Of War oliver has addressed a
letter notifying governors of states
and territories that on January 81
next under the terms of the Dick mill
tia act, the militia organization must
conform to that of the regular and
volunteer armies Of the United States.
He suggests that the governors take
the necessary steps to secure such
conformity. Says Gen. Oliver:
Failure to meet this statutory re-
Quirement will result In debarring a
state from the use of the allotment of
the annual appropriation OF $4,000
900 for the support of the militia"
The act requires that tho number
of regularly enlisted, organized and
uniformed active militia shall be at
least 100 men for each senator ard |
representative of each state.
The guard must be divided Into di.
brigades, regiments, etc., to
conform to the regular army organiza.
ton, reserving to the government the
power Of reorganization to increase
the efficiency and to make the COM
panies and numbers of officers Gs-
signed to organizations correspond to
he regular army.

That women have welded power
full influence in the political world can
not be denied when we contrast the
position she occupied in this country
as late as 1850 with her present stat
US. There was not state in the
union which did not bear upon Its
statute books most unjust and un
righteous laws under which a woman
could be deprived of her property and
subjected to the most outrageous
treatment and literally robbed of her
inheritance through the profiigacy and
recklessness of an unworthy husband
She had no protection against the
cruelty of parent or husband or the
disposition of anything without hei

authority they had the power to de
stroy her reputation and could take
her children away from her, If she
had any, and they were SO disposed
If the laws did not give them this
power the practice sanctioned and
sustained men in their unjust domino

The unjust rulings of a school board
precipitated Mis- Anthony's rebellion
against the unfair treatment of wo
men and caused the first movement
for woman suffrage. For a half-cen,
fury Miss Anthony, Mrs. Stanton and
others Of their heroic colleagues kept
up the warfare until the obnoxious
avs were expunged and much more
lust and righteous ones enacted.

In some of the states the right Of
female suffrage has been extended
and women have been chosen to Off,
cial positions, including that of rep.
resentatives In the state legislatures,
and I am proud to say that they have
made good records. It has been graf
flying to know that the presence Of
women at the polls has had a salutary
effect on the elections. The riotous
disposition which characterized the
balloting on election days, and not in
frequently ended in bloodshed, has
been changed to a holiday occasion
and general good-natured festivities
l hope to see the great Improvement
In political methods anticipated and
claimed by the advocates of female
suffrage.
Through the coalition of the various
elements of discord some of these
states had passed into the hands OF
irresponsible men without records
which entitled them to fill these posi-
tons. They have been a hindrance
to all legislation for the welfare OF
state or nation. But in the recognt
ton Of the betterment Of social and
political conditions 1t is to be hoped
that the ablest and best Of all com
munities may be brought to the front
AND that speedily the highest class Of
representatives may come rom the
states that have inaugurated woman
suffrage.
