And 1t Took a Long, Long Time to

One of the most elaborate and sus.

Joe could stand 1t no longer. He

Women Not Represented at the Polls.

1t is claimed by those opposed to
woman suffrage that women are al
ready represented by their husbands,
fathers and brothers, but this social
ed representation bears no propor
ton to numbers. The vote of a man
with wife, widowed mother and
unmarried daughters counts for no
more than the vote of his bachelor
neighbor. Since the object of taking
vote is to get at the wish of the
majority, it is clear that the only
fair way is for each grown person to
have one vote and cast it for him
self or herself.
If it were possible for American
men to represent women through
kindness, they would do it. But
man is naturally too different from
woman to represent her. Unless men
aud women should ever become Just
alike (which would be unfortunately
women must either 60 unrepresented
or represent themselves. A proof
that women's opinions are not fully
represented is the lack in many
States of humane and protective leg
iSlation, the poor enforcement of
such legislation where it exists, and
the imperfect legal safeguarding Of
the moral, educational and humani-
tartan interests that women have
most at heart. A hundred years
ago, before the equal rights move
ment began, the property laws as
between men and women were in
credibly unequal. Yet our grand
fathers loved their wives and daugh-
ters as much as men do today.
In Arkansas the fathers and moth
ers of children are still not joint
guardians by law as they are by
nature
Perhaps injustices of the laws
might be corrected by women s indi-
rect influence, but the indirect meth
cd is needlessly long and hard. Let
the men Of Arkansas give the wo-
men the ballot, and have their help
in the making of good laws and in
the election of Just officials.

How to Protect Yourself

You can wear honest shoes if you want

You can get shoes made by the only

The only shoe manufacturers in this
country that tan, manufacture and sell
independent of the Hide Trust, the
Leather Trust, the Leather Jobber and

Endicott, Johnson & Co. is the name of
this concern.
They buy their hides in the open markets
of the world. They have the onl y complete

They are the largest shoe manufacturers in
the word-thanks to their policy of honest
shoes and their saving the shoe wearer four
profits in the price.
Endicott, Johnson & Co. started in the shoe
business with the fixed idea of service to the
wearer. 1t was the extreme unreliability
OF Trust-tanned leather that forced them to

PROPERTY.

An underlined fear of approach
ing danger haunts the man of
wealth. He sees a menace In
the present condition of men and
affairs, indistinct, but none the
less real, so that he has come
to look upon his possessions as a
loan that can be demanded from
him without reprieve from one
moment to another. The poor
man is consumed by envy and
greed of the wealth of the privi-
legged few. Neither in himself
nor in the existing arrangement
Of the world and society as he
has learned to understand 1t
does he discover any convincing
reasons for the fact that he is
poor and hence excluded from
the table of life's pleasures. The
rich man is dreading, the poor
man is hoping and working to
bring about, a change in the
