LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
BACK TO woMANLEss SUFFRAGE.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: While there has been considerable discussion
OF late as to why woman should should not
have the right of equal suffrage. have little
attention paid TO the actual recent developments in
this connection in various parts of the country 1t
may be Of interest those who clamor for the
ballot a of obtaining their rights, what
ever that may mean. to learn that in the state OF
Georgia. part of the country particularly famed
for chvalrous treatment OF women on the part Of
men, official authority has decided that tho married
woman's place is at home. AS result Of this
decision no married women applicants will
be examined for Civil Service places in postof1ces
The point is of interest as a commentary on the
arguments OF those opposed 70 equal suffrage.
which in their last analysis hold that woman's
attitude In this matter must in the end come as
result OF the choice between the ballot and what It
means, the side, and the home with all It's
opportunities on the other. 1t seems rather fruit
that the full exercise of the franchise
on the part of women would MOTTO degree de-
prive the home OF her presence Even the women
who are going to Albany political errsnd-
that is, TO make plea for equal suffrsge-can
hardly deny this, nor suppose, that the granting
OF the equal franchise would greatly increase the
necessity for such activities 1 mention this not in
itself as argument for against equal suffrage,
but as relating that phase OF the question which
has to do with the choice between the ballot and
the home.
Within the present month. may add the state
o. Nebraska has killed constitutional amendment
providing for woman suffrage in state and munic-
ipa elections. Very recently too the legislatures
OF Kansas. Oklahoma and South Dakota have taken
similar action. FACTS.

Community.
The Rev. DR.. Moses spoke vehemeutly against
there being any references to politics in the con-
stitution of the proposed Jewish Community. While
he was talking there was a sudden crash against
a window just behind him and to side OF tho
platform of the 21st street side OF the building.
Half white turnip broke through the window

feet of Jacob H Schiff, who narrowly escaped being
hit by falling pieces of glass. Word was sent TO
the policeman stationed downstairs to prevent fur
ther assaults on the windows.

try in the world where the Jew is treated fairly
This remark was made after another rabbt had
criticised the treatment of the Jew here. The
Rev DR.. Joseph s. Ascher made a long plea on
behalf Of the orthodox Jews and said that they

they were trying be despots. After considerable
wranglng the part OF rabbis and representa-
tives Of various Jewish societies, Samuel Dort

RIVERS BILL IS PASSED.
Senate EHdes Water POWer PrOUi-
SiOnS.

Washington, Feb. 27.-The Senate passed the
rivers and harbors bill, carrying total appropria-
ton OF approximately So 100000 to-day and then de-
voted the remainder OF the session to pronouncing
euogies on deceased members
The Senate took occasion to express it's dissent
from the policy Of the President which would have
the federal government develop natura: water
power and lease 1t to private individuals cor
porations by striking from the rivers and harbors
bill every provision for the development OF sich
power, with the exception of that of the ST Mary
River. Whicn constitutes Il part of the boundary
between Michigan and Canada. The attitude of the
Senate is that water power belongs to the several
states. and. moreover. that there is general an
tagonism to the policy Of compelling the leasing OF
such power for inadequate compensation and fer
specific periods.
