POLICE COURT JOTTINGS

Charles Yarrick, who had, from
all accounts, worked up an elegant
jag, forfeited his bail this morning
at the Police Court. Mr. Sun Chong,
who evidently Is more partial to
samshu than water, appeared before
Judge Andrade and dug up four piec-
eS of silver in token of homage.
A number of Juveniles then took
the stage and related their fortunes
and misfortunes at the alluring game

The youths were all admitted to pro-

CAPTAINS Change
COMMANDS At SEA

Evidently the ancient proverb
aLcnt the changing of horses In the
middle OF the stream does not apply
to changing ships in the middle OF
the sea. Captain Clark and Captain
Gregory of the luter-Island fleet last
night changed commands right in the
heart Of the Kauai channel.
Clark was ON the Kinau, which left
last night for Kauai, and Gregory
was In command of the steamer W. G.
Hall, coming To Honolulu. As the
two steamers approached each other,
signals were exchanged. The steam
ers were stopped. much to the sur
prise of the passengers, and Captain
Clark and Captain Gregory immedi-
ately left their bridges in charge Of
first officers and boarded each other 3
steamer without any mishap.
Captain Clark thus turned about
and returned here this morning in
command of the w. G. Hall. while
captain Gregory. who came half way
to meet Clark, returned to Kauai.
Captain Thompson, the regular
commander of the Hail, Is having a
well-earned vacation and his place Is
temporarily taken by Captain Clark.

Another Strong Answer to Mr.. Booher
from One of the Non-Privileged Sex.
(By Mrs. j. ]. Fyckes. }


The attitude and the arguments of Mr..
S. r. Booher on Equal Suffrage in the
Blade of July 4th, 1909, must of necessity
seem extremely vulnerable to every think
ing woman, who favors not only the prog
ress of her sex, but that of humanity as
WELL
The question is not really one of either
physical or mental difference, for physical
and mental differences (if such actually
EXIST, barring of course, positive inca
pacity,-insanity, idiocy, etc.-do not af-
feet woman's natural right to legislate
for herself, or rather to have voice in all
legislation that primarily affects her, and
to be fully represented, with the same right
as man, to abrogate measures that injure
her SEX
The time when every woman was regard
ed as a fool, no matter how brilliant and
capable, simply because she was woman,
has passed forever, and progress be thank
ed for this. Mentally there is difference,
not of sex, but of kind. All men are not
cast into a single mold, neither are all
women. OF 80 women. no two will be alike
in either character or sentiments Those
qualities we know as feminine virtues, are
as masculine as they are feminine, being
impartiallly distributed among both the
sexes; or else they are artificial exhores-
cences of custom, the result Of an extreme
ly one-sided system of education. There
is no virtue a woman may boast that would
not likewise grace a man, no vice that can
stain her that would not with the same
certainty stain a man. IF we look at the
matter otherwise, we are prejudiced and
unjust, not only to woman, but to the race,
since that must suffer indirectly wherever
she does.
The sole fundamental difference between
the sexes is grace and strength-the first
characterizing the woman, the latter the
man. But strength is only majestic when
it refrains from expressing; when it OPP
presses it becomes hideous and degenerates
into tyranny.
Woman's "natural" sphere may indeed
be described as the sphere of motherhood,
Blue-grass blade. [volume] (Lexington, Ky.) 188?-19??, 1909-09-05

ut ltuutuCy 10 look dJ l0lS matter
narrow-mindedy through the distorting
spectacles of sex, has bred much mischief,
since the dawn of history. 1t has been re-
spOnsible for nine-tenths of the narrowing
injustice man forced the woman to expert
ence at his hands. For woman was judged
not as a human being, but simply as a wo-
man-that is to say, an inferior, a piece
of property. 1t is this property nature
of woman that man still emphasizes in Civ
ing her no more voice than he gives his
COW or dog, in matters and laws that
principally affect her.
The early legislators saw in her female
animal, nothing more. We can therefore
safely say that any system that brings sex
into the foreground and withholds human
privileges on such plea is injurious to
progress. Sex, if we would be just, must
be made an incident, thing apart, and hui
manity, the main Issue, the prerogative
of each individual, and their principal, ir-
REPUTABLE claim to equality.
The Mahometans, ala Mr.. Booher, sub
scribed to the sex argument, and evolved
not only the harem, but the wife-beater's
cudgel; the Chinese, following suit, in
vented crippled feet; the Asiatics endorsed
the veil; the Hindus perpetrated against
woman the crime of suffice. Wherever I'M
due emphasis has been placed on sexual
difference, sex has in case of the man,
been made the badge of authority, power
and privilege. In case of the woman it
spelled only incapacitv and was viewed as
a serious handicap. When we read of the
martyrdom of woman, and perceive to what
extent church and state combined to OBJ
press her, we must necessarily lose all con-
fdence in a government conducted entirely
by men. Had woman been allowed a voice.
I ask, would such things have ever been?
Would those monstrous laws have ever be-
come operative?
Here is where the main evil of disfran-
chised entities lies-the disfranchised are
placed outside of the pale of humanity and
must bow to laws they have not enacted
and can neither modify nor repeal. The
sex that Yields the ballot rules, brushes,
enslaves: it could not be otherwise.
No. woman must have the ballot, if ins-
tice is to prevail She must have it for
three reasons; LIST. because she is the
mother and knows better than man the
needs of her children; End, because as
woman, she has been left weak and with

Why Women Should Vote

but precisely so, mans "natural" sphere
is only the sphere of fatherhood. In nei-
Their sphere is diversity of occupations,

plishments or peculiAl< privileges necessary.
The artist IS ability, 90 instance, the poet s
genius, the inventors faculties, are not

through slow evolution, and lead to civil

size the fact that they are no more male

tiles, it has rather bean owing to the fact
that abnormal pressure and conventional
exactions deprived hSS of every chance to
assert her individuality, than 10 a natural,
that is, sexual defciefcy.
But the right of Htes franchise is an in

fundamental inherent right he would init

Just men would never think of ruling
woman and of determining what she shall
or shall not do. subject to penalties which
they impose. IF the ballot did not really
stand for supremacy few members of the
weaker sex would crave it; but the voter
is also the law-giver;. and it has been the
experience of all history that the dominant

MYSTERY IN SHOOTING
CHICAGO WOMAN HELD ON CHARGE
OF WOUNDING MOTHER.
Daughter Claims Elderly Widow Shot
Herself and 1ntimates That She
Is Not Sane

CHICAGO, ILL.,. July 23.-Mrs. Agnes
G. Mayfeld, wife of q mining promoter
of Mapimi, Durango, Mexico, who is
under arrest in connection with the
shooting of her mother. Mrs. Gertrude A.
Huxley, spent the night at the police
station.
Mrs Hinkley's statement that the bull
let was fired by her daughter is denied
by Mrs. Mayfeld.
"My mothers whole story is rdicu-
lous,' said the prisoner today. II came
to Chicago from Mexico to give her
stock in the mining company, not to sell
it to her"
Mrs. Mayfeld minated that it might
be well to inquire into her mothers men
tai condition and continued:
Il have six letters from my aunt, Mrs.
j. l.. Hutchinson Of Streator, H., which
will help me. In each Of these letters
my aunt warned me to keep away from
my mother
Mrs. Mayfield quoted from one of the
letters as follows:
Dear Agnes: If | We're in your place
l would avoid your mother because I
feel that she will do you mischief If
your husband does not come to her
terms"
In a second letter Mrs. Hutchinson Is
quoted as saying:
You know how your mother is-she
will either rule or ruin. l fear for you
If you refuse to turn over the 300 acres
of mining land in Mexico"
Mrs. Mayteld stated that her mother
hatred of her began year ago when she
married DR.. Maytield.
