A Co1ored Suffragette

1.-THE following nonolog by Dorothy
Dix was given before the National
American Woman Suffrage Association
convention in Washington
Dorothy Dix, in the language and
gestures of an old negro nanny, ex-
piained the needs OF suffrage as she
saw them to the convention. The lack
of backbone is the reason for woman
not having the ballot, she declared. She
spoke as follows:
Il amt never been one dat run off
after cry new belief dat comes along,
an cats de reason dat / ain't never

things not bein' made at de start, but

THE REAL ISSUE.
[Ghdden Graphic. Il


The states representation at Wash
iugton might be overwhelmed with the
opposition, but no word of encourage
ment would be breathed by the COVER
nor of the state as long as Mr.. Car
roll fills the office. His ideal is to hold
office in peace. Not only this, but
if it fell to his lot to name successor
to one of these men of courage and
fidelity. who would it be? A putty
man of his own type, without doubt
Garst has foresight. he has courage, he
has been tested in the fierce crucible
of time and conflict, and he has not
been found wanting. He is not infalli-
BILE. he is human, he is like other men
in most ways. but he mas demonstrated
that he possesses the qualities of lead
ership so essential to successful
achievement and we doubt if there is
man in Iowa in whom the people
would get more for their money than

sons that the insurgents are against
him. He opposes him because OF his
liberal. progressive policies. Mr.. Payne
is somewhat eccentric. and for years
has ttched to go to congress from his
district, but lacking personal popular
ity, has never realized on that ambi-
ton, and it is perfectly safe to say
never will. He is a veritable encyclo-
pedia Of information along political and
statistical lines, but is not possessed
with any of the qualifications that
make the popular politician. and so es-
sential to the successful one. Mr..
Payne will get very few votes for the
nomination for congress. His candidacy
may injure Mr.. Hull, but it will do
nothing for Mr.. Payne.

PREACHERS AND POLITICS.

I'D. 0oIN1f 7" TIT y -,
Some of our exchanges are getting
excited because preachers in their
towns preach political sermons. Our own
most serious objections to such sern-
orls is that frequently the preacher
does not take the trouble 10 know
what he is talking about. We never
object to hearing a preacher talk poll
tics if he really says something. All
issues are al last analysis moral Is
sues, and ali agree that preachers may
properly discuss moral issues. II
preacher has brains and knowledge let
him use them for the best good OF the
community: If he has neither he can
easily find some nice sleepy church for
the pastorship of which either brains
or knowledge would be an absolute dis
qualification.

The fact is, he is governor OF Iowa. a
