JASTREMSKTS ANSWER.

Baton Rouge, March 70, 1907.
Mrs. Judith Hyams Douglas, Core
spending Secretary Era Club: My Dear
Madam have the honor to acknowl-
edge the receipt of your esteemed favor
of the 18th instant informing me that
you had been instructed by the Era Club
to inquire if i'll that part of my platform
urging all good citizens to lend their
influence to re-establishing the sway of
equal rights for all, special to none,
it was not my purpose to include the
extension to the women of Louisiana
My reference to the exercise of the bal
lot applies solely to the electorate ere
ated by the Constitution of 1893, and the
laws in conformity Herewith
In this connection permit me to OBJ
serve that the Fifteenth Amendment
made the constitution of the electorate
in the Southern States a far more per-
picking task than it would have been
had the people been left free to formu
in the various States might indicate
The electorate in Louisiana is Just pass
ing the experimental stage, and the
question of the extension of suffrage to
women must necessarily be approached
with the most toughtful consideration.
| must confess that | have not as yet
given to the subject that degree of study
that it merits. Hence, | am not prepared
to declare any conclusion in regard
thereto
| beg to assure you, however, that ]
yield to none in my admiration OF the
noble womanhood of our State, nor in
the earnest desire to widen the field OF
woman's opportunities to earn the am
plest living for herself and her loved
ones.
| shall always be ready to do every
thing possible to promote the welfare Of
our Womanhood.
With assurances of my highest consid-
Grafton for the membership of the Era
Club, including yourself, beg to be re-
garded as your most obedient and re-
spectful servant,
LEON JASTREMSKI.
1t may be noted that General Jastrem-
ski is evasive when he should have been
direct and positive. AS far as The
Caucasian is concerned, it has and will
favor woman suffrage. And why not ?
The Caucasian's view on this subject has
long since been based on equity and
justice.
WHY should the question of the ex-
tension of suffrage to women must ne
cessarily be approached with the most
thoughtful consideration"
What women should have and are EN-
titled to have, are not sentimental ex-
pressions of admiration such as noble
womanhood' and queen of the home
and similar expressions, which are
evanescent, indefinite and always SC
handy for ready use in avoiding, as IN
this instance, an issue which should me
met manfully, honestly and fearlessly
but the same right which is accorded
men; and men who are invested with the
greatest of privileges, the exercise OF
citizenship simply because they are not
women.

ceives more pay than captain OF
twenty years service stationed at any
of the posts near that city, even con

This statement is made by Brigadier
General Funston, commanding the de
partment of California, in his annual
report to the secretary Of war. He
made a strong plea for an increase OF
army pay, not for the officers just en-
tering the service, but for those who
have served long. He says:

should attempt to compete In display
with persons of wealth, but they
