Equal Suffrage Crusaders.

The English "suffragettes" appear to
believe that they must qualify for the
strenuous, physical phases Of political
lie before their claims will be recog-
nized by the people and their legislators.
They are going at their propaganda in
the spirit of the old crusaders, attacking
the foe hammer and tongs. adopting his
tactics and injecting the element of force
into the debates on the subject near to
their hearts. The latest dispatches tell
of rough-and -tumble affair at Leeds.
where Herbert Gladstone was howled
down when he tried to speak at a meet
ing, and later. when the women under
took to take posse ssion of the meeting, a.
frea fight occurred between the men and
women in the audience.
1t is a matter Of gratifying reflection
that never in the history of the woman
suffrage agitation in this country have
the men and women actually come to
blows over the issue. There have been
some sharp debates. and the two sexes
have flung some fine sarcasm back and
forth, but no man has ever forgotten
the limitations placed by gallantry upon
his arguments. nor has any suffragist-a
word infinitely to be preferred to the

Poisoned by Banknotes.

Many a sermon, clerical and lay, has
been preached on the perils of wealth.
Yet men plot and cavil, sweat and cheat.
to get close enough to touch those perils.
It has been said that there is a fascina-
ton in danger that lures men on. 1t
must be true. Else why do so many men
court the perls of wealth? So oblivious
to the danger do some men become that
they will fondle roll of yellow backs
without thinking OF them as a yellow
peril. They do not even recall that yellow
Is the sign Of plague or that sin Is plated
with gold.
The danger of filthy lucre. and espe-
cially very filthy lucre, is brought to mind
by the following bit of news taken from
a Philadelphia paper:
phillip Wilson, councilman from the
sixth ward, Camden, and paying teller
of the Camden National Bank. is confined
to his home, suffering from blood poison
ing Friday last, after he had handled
a large quantity of banknotes, he felt
burning sensation in his hand: MONDAY
the hand began to swell. and Tuesday
night he consulted a physician, who pro-
nounced it blood poisoning.
This ought to be a warning to every
man not to handle banknotes, or even
Treasury notes, in such large quantities.
It is rather curious that Mr.. Philip VIII
son and not his wife was poisoned by
handling these banknotes. Perhaps Mr.
Wilson is not married.

SOBER THOUGHT
OF CITIZENS
From the Philadelphia Ledger.

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
When did the American public hear q
Justice of the Supreme Court say of
President incumbent that he presented
the spectacle of playing hide and seek
with the people? 1t is not to be sup
posed that Justice Brewer in thus de-
parting from the decorous etiquette of off,
cial life spoke lightly and without pre-
meditation. The more probable interpre-
tation is that he thoughtfully chose the
Carnegie Hall meeting on Wednesday
night as a timely occasion for sharply
outlining for the sober consideration of
his countrymen certain departures from
those traditions of constitutional author
ity which are implied in the decisions of
the highest tribunal.
That third term is contrary to the
spirit of the Constitution he showed by
citing the original plan of the convention
providing term of seven years without
reelection. He declared his agreement
with the opinion that this original plan
would be better than the one adopted,
"for no apparent reason" just before the
convention adjourned. Another comment
is also significant in an obvious allusion
to contemporary history:
Let it be ever remembered that justice
is essential but constant shifting from
one plan to another in search of ideal
justice often defeats itself in purpose.
Justice is never secure while order and
stability are destroyed
In this judicial regret at some ten
denotes fostered by the weaker side OF
President Roosevelt's character. Justice
Brewer did not, we are safe in believing.
lose sight of the patriotic spirit of the
President He would not depreciate any
of President Roosevelt's achievements. He
did. however. deliberately say in terms
that more than one of the Presidents
methods. more than one pre- sidential I'M
d7rtaking. can be regarded not otherwise
than dangerous to the permanent well
fare of the republic. 1t was an unusual
address; a reproof from Supreme Court
Justice to a President of the United
STATES! The Presidents close friends will
issue reply or many replies. The judges
words. none the less. will leave an indel-
IDLE impression on the minds of lawyers
and conservative laymen.

Mr.. Taggart's Guests.

1t is easy to exaggerate-as Is being
Zone for news purposes-the importance
Of the meeting of democratic national
committeeman at French Lick Springs.
National questions. we are told. are under
discussion. and a presidential program
may be shaped. In the language of the
poet, rats!
Mr.. Tagga-t's guests are good fellows.
Ind probably, in way. good politicians.
And they are having a good time, we
may all be sure. Their host Is a host,
sure enough. He too is a good fellow.
and. what Is more. knows how to keep
hotel. He made the money which enabled
him to go into politics comfortably in the
hotel business. He has not lost his cum
ming as an entertainer Of man and beast;
and the beds at French Lick and the
table are probably all that his visitors
could wish.
But when Mr.. Taggart Is around good
cheer is the real feast He abounds in 1t.
he possesses all varieties Of it. HIS
smile is a species of sunshine. His hand
clasp Is a b-acer never to be forgotten.
A man is surer of himself from that mo-
ufent. His stories chase dull care away
To meet him is to love him evermore.

British designation-ever tried In public
meeting to demonstrate that she was as
good a man as the next one in the mat
ter of prowess.
During the lifetime of the late Senator
Hoar Of Massachusetts one Of the most
interesting incidents of the session of
Congress each winter was the argument
before his committee delivered by a
group of women advocating the extern
sion of the suffrage to women. No one
who ever attended one of those hearings
will forget the dignity with which such
speakers as Susan B. Anthony and Eliza
beth Cady Stanton pressed their claims
AMI voiced the rights of women to the
suffrage. There was no scranpbling, no
screaming. no hysteria, no fainting. moth
ing of the sort that has been chiefly In
evidence in England during the recent
agitation of the question there. No wom-
an ever thought it necessary to make
herself subject to arrest for disorderly
conduct in order to attract attention to
the cause. The proposition advanced by
the women was regarded as proper
subject for debate, and was discussed In
fair spirit of mutual regard for the
intellect Of each side.
Woman suffrage has MADE maIef1ai
Roadway in the United States. In many
states the franchise has been granted to
women under limitations. In some states
it Is enjoyed by them without restrictions.
The participation of women in the bust
ness of choosing public officials is no
longer regarded as an unthinkable limo
walton. Even In those communities where
the idea has not gained Roadway the
proposition is calmly contemplated. and
sooner or later it will be given some de-
gree Of recognition. It behooves the wom-
en- of England who want the ballot to
study the history of the movement in
America and take heed Of the fact that
great gains have been scored without dis
order and unwomanly conduct. Maybe
the same results might be scored there
through the same methods.

Gomez Of Manila.
This is from a Manila cable:

tine assembly is busy over the protest
against the seating of DR.. Dominador Co.
mez the anti-American agitator, who de-
feated Vincente Lukban in Manila but
whose right to take seat is contested.
Long arguments are being presented, in
the course Of which GomeZ's claim to cit
izenship Is denied. Gomez says he not
only subscribed to the oath of allegiance
once, but mas done so two or three times
every year since 1902.
THE general opinion of the assembly
seems to be- in favor of Gomez. Lukban
belongs to the same party but has not
been as radical as Gomez"
1t may be well to admit DR.. Gomez if
for no other reason than because of his
unusual capacity for swearing allegiance.
Several times year for five years is a
remarkable record. After a while he may
be able to stay sworn.
