WOMAN SUFFRAGE

Every crook in California is
against woman suffrage" declared

or. The keeper Of every evil den and
gambling house in the country will
vote against the enfrAnchisement of
women. ."-Erchange.
The great state of California
joins the half dozen other Ameri.
can Commonwealths in granting
suffrage to women. This, the
greatestlsocial and political re.
form of the century, will become
an anaccomplished fact, the moment
women themselves generally
awake to their duty and privilege
therein and demand the right to
vote.
There are q score of reasons
why women should thus use
their civic rights and not one
why they should not.
The exercise by women of the
ballot will neither bring the mil.
lenium nor yet prove a social ca
tastrophe. as some of its heated
advocates on the one hand and
opponents on the other, assert.
But that it will purify and uplift
politics and exert a wholesome
influence through every depart.
ment of the public service, es.
pecially in state and municipal
affairs, where il is most needed,
there can be no doubt whatever. |
And this, because God made
woman ethically and morally |
mans superior. Common obser.
walton shows this: she fills the
churches, he fills the jails-the |
only place, in fact, where there
are more men than women in a
prsyer.meeting, is The peniten.
tiary!
So, woman armed with the
ballot and persuaded; as she soon
will be, of her duty to use it for
the public good, will introduce a
new and blessed element into de-
based politics.
This the politicians know full
well. Hence the spectacle in
the late contest in California, of
the whole criminal power Of its
big capitals, San Francisco, Los
Angeles, ETC., turning out en-
masse to defeat her franchise
right-all the gamblers, thieves,
pot-house politicians and low
saloon and dive keepers, the
whole unspeakable underworld
of SHIN one word, all the CO.
horts of the devil-coIleagued
against giving the ballot to
woman.
And it has been so in every
great city wherever this contest
has. been waged. Why? Because
the whole evil crew know that
every instinct of her nature, as
daughter, wife and mother, will
be fiercely stirred against all
their vile trafic-that al last
white slavery, rum.selling, child.
hood slavery, and the criminal
control of states and cities, will
have an end.
We close as we began; were all
other arguments wanting, the
facts in the clipping that pre-.
faces this editorial, would in
themselves dispose Of this issue
wheather or not women should
vote.

When the board OF review com

property valuation by about s.. OOO. 600
and with no clerical assistance to
make the changes on the land books
IL appeared for a time that the CITY

owing on this property. The county
commissioners refused to give the
board clerk to do the work, and il
was then that the members OF the
board with City Treasurer Johnson
decided TO make the changes them

II was at first believed that il would
cost $500 10 hire "a clerk TO do the
work. but in the light of the fact that
the changes have practically been

in the adjoining rooms pink and

electricity the announcement
spread from table to table until
the whole room was in fiutter.
Upon each ace appeared tiny
Cupid, while through the ace was
an arrow and the side the name
of the young people and the date
of the wedding, January 81,
