UFFRAGETESW

An editorial from The Cleveland
Leader reads as Follows; Among the
more sober-minded and intelligent OPP
ponents OF woman suffrage the argu-
ment which probably has more weight
than any other Is the assertion, con-
ndently and repeatedly made, that to
give women the ballot would tend to
break up families or spoil the home
atmosphere, which Is the finest thing in
millions OF lives. This point touches a
matter of great weight. II would be
impressive. indeed, IL 1t were well
founded. but IL belongs in the class OF
lmportant-if-true statements which call
for careful scrutiny.
This argument, like most of those
used by opponents Of woman suffrage,
rests upon the theory that government
must be based upon h least favorable,
not on the most promising elements
ana forces, OF human nature. 1t is
equivalent to saying that the right Of
suffrage should be adapted to the con-
ditions existing In the homes Of the
narrowest and most intolerant men and
women rather than suited to the
domestic relations Of those who are
their dealings with their fellow citi-
zens. not to say their own families.
No doubt there are husbands and
wives who would be separated by wo-
man suffrage. The husbands could o
endure the loss of one of their cherish
ed points OF superior authority and
Importance. The wives would be car
ried away by the excitement and inter-
est OF their new privileges. Or bitter
ness might be caused by arguments
carried on without regard for the feel,
ings of either party.
But to admit the existence of such
dangers is to concede nothing more TO
the opponents of woman suffrage than
must always be granted to those who
talk of the risks of knowledge and the
pertls Of progress. Every forward step
taken by mankind opens he door to
possible mistakes and losses. Freedom
for gain.
A wife unable to read is not likely
to endanger the peace of a hreside by
arguing with her husband about books
If a wife is blind she will never fall
u with her liegelord over contrasts in
colors or matching the tints of cloth.
This argument can be carried back to
the conditions of life In prehistoric
caves, always with some show of loss
of safety by progress. Worked out
logically, 1t falls to pieces of its own
weight of absurdity.
On the other hand equal suffrage
would remove n more barrier be-
tween the husband and the wife, in
millions of homes. 1t would create a
FULLER and surer sense of understanding
from the point OF view of good citizen
ship. 1t would bring men and women
nearer in respect to their relations with
the state and with the large problems
of society.
Even pessimists and reactionarIes
will admit that for husbands and wives
of the right kind suffrage
would mean more in common, fuller
consciousness of complete understand
ing and mutual sympathy and conf
dence. 1t would add a tie to those al
ready holding families together.
Since this is so, shall a state like
Ohio order its ways and shape it's con-
