Pankhufsts head of the militant SUIT
frage faction Of England. is in at
tendance at the convention and win
urge the delegates to become ag-
gressive in their method Of carry
Ing on the fight.
One would think from the prog
ress being made by the women of
the two countries, the English
should rather adopt the American
method than to have the American
women do as the English ladies' are
doing. AS far as we are able to
learn the English suffragettes have
done little more than make them
selves ridiculous in the eyes of the
world. On the other hand, several
of the western states In this coun-
try have already granted suffrage to
the women and Ave other states
have passed a suffrage bill and will
submit the question OF votes for
women at their next elections.
One of the towns of Kansas has q
woman mayor and Colorado has sew
eral women in her state legislature.
1t was only a few days ago that the
great state of California decided to
allow women to vote on all CUES
tions, even at the presidential cleo
ton.
We do not see what complaint
woman have to make of the progress
of their cause In America. 1t would
appear that they have nothing to
gain by becoming more militant.
but, on the other hand, 1t might dis
gust a great many people who are
inclined to be friendly to their
cause. and thereby do o harm
than good. If the women are wise
they will let well enough alone.

MOVING PICTURE EFFEcTs.

From time to time the EVENING
NEWS has called attention to some
of the evil effects moving pictures
have had on children. A day or two
ago another incident was given In
the Paterson Call, In which 1t stated
that two boys of that city, inspired
with the desire to lead the life of
the cowboys In western plains as
depicted in moving pictures. left
their homes and at last accounts,
the police authorities were aiding
the families In finding the lads. They
are but fifteen years Of age and are
victims of the moving picture habit.
Before leaving the house n of
the boys left a note stating I'm go
ing away, Don't seek me-" Wheth-
err or not these youngsters have been
found, the fact remains that a great
deal of distress was caused and two
homes were practically broken up
sfsresostnes ar sfrssss3e pae-
lures.
As has been said before many
times, these pictures car be made a
source Of education to the people or
they can do q great deal Of harm.
Under the present management the
latter is usually the cas- With the
number ot moving picture shows
rapidly increasing In this city 1t
would seem as Ii some steps should
be taken to see that the right kind
of pictures are exposed to the pub
lie. We believe the time Is coming
when the state legislature will have
to take notice of this and a law
passed whereby the picture films
will have to pass censorship before
they are allowed to be exposed In
the state. We believe some such
as this would be an excel
lent thing.

MEN TO BE REMEMBERED.

There are two candidates fer the
State Legislature this fall In whom
voters Of this section should be par
ticuIarly Interested. One Of them is
August G. Streitwolf, of Middlesex
county; the other is Elmer Fl. Gar
an, of Monmouth county. Both
these men were members OF the
xslzys1ayurs Tast yaaf ana BOTH wsfs
active supporters Of Governor Will
son In his efforts to fulfill tho
pledges made In the platform on
which he was elected. In spite Of
all that the political machines could
do to change these two assembly
men they were steadfast in their
urncs and prcTed themselves
friends Of the people and men who
nnuid be depended upon. When
the people get such men as these in
the Legislature they should be glad
to keep them there, for 1t is now
certain how they will act when the
test comes.
TO defeat these two men at the
coming election would simply mean
that the people do not want men
who are faithful to their pledges and
Who will do what they say they will
40. 1t will can that the people
are not willing to reward faithful
servants These two assemblynan
have been tried and have proven
true. However else a Middlesex
voter may cast his ballot on Mo-
yember I he should make sure that
FIRST Of all an Ky is placed opposite
the name of August g. Streitwolf,
and the voters In Monmouth county
should see that an TX" is placed OPP
posite the name Of Elmer H. Geran.
Taking a broader view Of the stu
alton there is every reason why the
people should elect the entire Demo-
cratic assembly delegation In both
counties. It was the Democratic
party. under the leadership Of a
Democratic governor. who gave the
people the. reforms they have
been asking for. The party has kept
~ pledge. It has made good. To
DO otherwise than to return It to
control would be like furnishing a
child for telling the truth and mind
Is parents.
X the people W had a true
friend in Office, Governor Wilson is
the man and for that reason he
ahould receive hearty support. This
means that New Jersey ought to
have d strong Democratic majority
Iii the next Legislature.
