No one who examines these statis
tics can fail to see steady advance in
the direction of woman suffrage, with
no retrogress;on. In only one single
instance has the ballot been taken
away from women after it was granted
VIZ, in the territory of Washington
This was done, after its legality had
been three times declared by differ,
ent legislature, through a despotic and
most unjust decision of the supreme
court, which was in direct contradic,
tion to the organic act under which
the territory was organized.
The only logical conclusion must be
that the advance will continue, and
this is the more irresistible because
women themselves are developing Sc
rapidly in education, business ability
organized work, self-reliance and
knowledge of public affairs. They are
also becoming large property holders
and taxpayers, and as such are de-
manding a voice in questions directly
affecting their financial interests
claim which public sentiment is large
ly inclined to grant. The continued
policy of our government has been to
extend the suffrage, until now all
classes of citizens are enfranchised
with the one and only exception OF
women. In natural sequence they
must be the next to receive the ballot
AS has been shown above, the line Is
already broken in many places, and
the movement under headway which
must inevitably result in making all
women-subject only to such restric
tions as apply to men-a part of the
electoral body.
But" the question will be asked
can you find any encouragement in
the defeats which the suffrage amend.

Wendell Phillips used to say:
when not only congress and the state
legislatures, but all the crossroads
schoolhouses are debating the ques.
tion of slavery, know that the cause
will succeed" The question of WON
an suffrage has now reached this
point. There is seldom day in the
year that l do not receive requests,
ranging from the great universities OF
the country to the intermediate de-
partments of the public schools, and
from clubs and societies of every de.
scription, for literature and other in.
formation to be used in debates upon
this subject. The most casual reader
must observe that there is scarcely
an edition of any Of the great or
small daily papers, or of the numer.
GUS monthly periodicals, which does
not contain articles bearing directly or
indirectly upon this matter. This
must be regarded as an indication that
it is live, practical issue and one OF
general interest.
These are the principal reasons and
an infinite number of minor ones
might be given, why, its advocates find
ample encouragement in the outlook
for woman suffrage.

Do feel dIsheartened at the series
OF defeats which this measure encoun-
ters In the various state legislatures
Not in the least. When the agitation
for equal rights first began It was al
most impossible to have the question
considered at all by legislative bodies
However, there always has existed
among civilized men a greater or less
sentiment Of justice and chivalry to-
ward women. When the latter would
present their bills for suffrage, and
also for the modification of some espe-
cially unjust law, the former would be
thrown aside without debate and the
latter eventually granted as a sort of
concession. When / remember that
myself and the small handful of wom-
en- who were associated with me went
up to the New York legislature, petit
tion in hand, for ten years before we
could get law giving married women
control of the wages they earned;
when l recollect that little band Of
women, headed by Lucy Stone and
Rev. Anna Shaw, besieged the Massa-
chusetts Legislature ten years before
they were successful in getting the
legal right for wife to be buried in
her husbands cemetsry lot; and when
/ recall many other Instances quite as
outrageous am not surprised that the
yielding of the great fundamental pow
er of the suffrage has been 80 long
delayed.
At first, as has been sold, legisla-
lures refused any consideration what
ever of this question. Then it pro
.gressed to the stage of being taken up
and made the subject of ribaldry and
abuse which seem incredible at the
present day. Now 1t has reached the
plane of dignified argument and it is
seldom that any legislature rejects
such a bill without a certain amount
of discussion. This question has oc-
cupied full days session of the
United States congress on several oc-
casions. 1t was debated a few years
ago for two days in respectful man
ner in the Massachusetts house of
representatives; it has been the sub
ject of serious discussion in half a
dozen legislatures within recent
period: At every session of the New
York Legislature a woman-suffrage bill
in some form receives careful consid-
Grafton and seldom fails to pasS either
the senate or the assembly by large
majority. In all legislatures it Is no
uncommon occurrence for the bill to
pass one house and frequently to be
defeated in the other by bare
margin. Sometimes only a vote for a
reconsideration saves it from COM
plete success; sometimes it does carry
and goes to the voters for ratification.
Eleven legislatures have thus submit.
ted the question and five have taken
this action twice, with an increased
affirmative vote, as has been shown.

SEVERED LIMBS
INDICATE CRIME

NEW YORK, Feb. 23.-The feet and
portions of the legs of man or wom-
an were found in box in a snow
bank in the back yard of tenement
house in Third avenue yesterday.
The legs had been chopped off, ap-
parently with an axe. From the ap-
pearance of the feet and legs it is be-
neved that an attempt was made to
destroy them before they were placed
in the box The limbs were taken to
a police station and an investigation
was begun.
Police Sergeant Mcclure said the
limbs were probably those of an Ital-
ian.
II suspect the man may have been
murdered and his body cut up In one
Of the tenements in the neighborhood
It is possible the person who was car
rying the feet to the river became in
toxicated and lost from his possession
this evidence Of a crime. There are
no marks upon the box or paper which
would lead to identification"

case returned a verdict of not guilty
about 4:30 o'clock last evening. She
was charged with stabbing Harry
Carssow so severely that he died sew
eral days later.
The jury was out less than half an
hour. The verdict is IN keeping with
the line of defense that raised rea-
sonable doubt as to whether the de-
fendant or some other party did the
stabbing. The defense sought to es-
tablish the fact that Smith AL George
was more likely the guilty party than
the accused.
The report now is that George has
suddenly disappeared.

ROOSEVELT AT

GiyeS Students Some
Advice
crecial to Evening Teller.

cnecial to Evening Teller.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Feb. 23.-
rbeodore Roosevelt paid his first visit
10 his alma mater today since Decom-
ing president of the United States.
The president made no effort to con-
real his pleasure at the opportunity to
-ovisit the scenes of his college days
and to walk again across the historic
Harvard campus.
The students, too, were glad to see
h,ro and they turned out en- masse to
AZ him honor. 1t was as Harvard
man that he was greeted, not as presi-
Ssnt of the United States, and the In
,ormality of the occasion was espe-
c,ally pleasing ito Mr.. Roosevelt.
Visits His Old Club.
This afternoon President Roosevelt
aa,ivered an address in the living room
~ the Harvard Union, under the joint
auspices of the Union and the Har-
ward Political club.
The address was simply an informal
talk to the undergraduates and Har-
ward men generally,
This evening the president will visit
the quarters Of the Porcelain club, OF
which he was a member while in col
leee and which his son, Theodore
Roosevelt, Jr., win probably join at
an early date.
The president and his family will
leave here in time to reach Washing
ton by Monday morning. a I
President ReoseSelt's Speech.
In his speech in the living room at
Harvard Union, President Roosevelt
stated that he spoke as one Harvard
man to his fellow Harvard men. He
said he felt that no Harvard man
could ever be suficiently grateful to
Colonel Higginson for having founded
Harvard Union.
1t was idle to expect, he said, that
there should be in Harvard a uniform
level of taste and association. Some
would excel in things of the body
some IN things of the mind.
Groups of specially congenial friends
athletic, artistic, scientific, social
must inevitably exist.
The president said his plea was no
for the abolition of these groups, bu
that they shall be got into the righ
focus in the eyes of all men; that tn
relative Importance of the differen
groups shall be understood when com
pared with the greater life of the col
lege as whole. Speaking of athletics
the president said:
