WON'T HEAR MARY WALKER
Doctor Wants to Talk to Con-
vention, but Has No Chance.

From staff Correspondent OF The Trioune'I
Syracuse, oct. DIR Mary Walker
came to Syracuse to-day and saw several
of the Democratic leaders in the hope OF
obtaining permission TO address the state
convention. She was not satisfied with
her recention, and she visited Room 2lS
and asked to see Charley" Murphy The
Tammany chief was AZ the Country Club
golfng again, and one OF the Tammany
men in charge of the reception room told
DR.. Walker her chance TO speak TO the
delegates was poor, as rule has been
adopted reserying that privilege for dele
gates alone.
DIR. Walker wore her usual high SILK
hat and black cotton gloves, with mascu-
line clothes. including black overcoat
buttoned up 10 the throat, where a picca-
diIly collar was visible above gray silk
tie that held gold horseshoe pin studded
with rhinestones. She carried an UNI
brella.
As she left the rooms occupied by Muir
ply and replaced her silk hat delegate
who learned of her mission, suggested
that she ask for the privilege Of the floor
when the convention met tomorrow
No" she replied. Il won't do that. l
might be turned down, and l couldn't
stand that"
Dr. Walker. who is Democrat. Is
against the denomination Of Governor
Dix.
Il feel sorry for Dix" she said. He
has been surrounded by bad advisers and
he didn't know enough about state affairs
to act for himself. If he is renominated
the Democratic party will go down 10
defeat. He must not be nominated
Dr. Walker is also against Colonel
Roosevelt for any office, and she speaks
of the colonel as deceitful.
I'm against Teddy and his methods
said Or. Walker. He deceives in every
way. He Is a mass Of deception. l can
prove--in fact, any one can-that he not
only talked against, but wrote against
woman suffrage. But so soon as he saw
one million women voters in the six suf-
frage states he changed his colors."
She had more 10 say about Roosevelt
as she referred TO her one big WISH TO
meet the Progressive candidate for Presi-
dent on the debating platform, so that she
could tell him what she thought of him.

paroxysms NJ cheering. 1t did nothing Of
the kind There was clapping, but OF the
variety that might be heard at some
sewing circle I'm Lowvile.
Charles +. Murphy sat quiet during
every outpurst Of applause that followed
the mention OF Governor Wilson'S name
Once he scratched his nose, and at an
other time played with his eyeglasses. But
he clapped as loudly as he could when
Governor Dix was mentioned.
Chairman Glynn devoted much time 10
attacking Colonel Roosevelt. much TO the
delight OF his hearers
"He IL the chameleon OF the political
world" said Mr. Glynn. but some day
he will burst trying to match the hues OF
his contradictory statements. T. r. thinks
he ought to be President because he is
the noisiest man I'm the land"
After the appointment of the usual COM
mttees, during which the Osborne incl
dent occurred. the convention adjourned
until 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon.

Chanler. was the next speaker. After ar
guing in favor Of the plank, she ended
by saying:
/ am by inheritance and conviction
Democrat, and / don't believe that
would have to turn TO the Republican or
Progressive parties If l should get
vote.
In beginning her argument, Mrs. Har-
riot Stanton Batch turned to Senator
Wagner. who was presiding, with the
remark: II want to have at least ono
eye on the chairman, because | regard
Mr.. Wagner as one OF our worst enc
mics"
Warns the Democrats.
The Democratic leader smiled, and Mrs.
Batch continued:
You will have the fight OF your lives IL
you don't put something about US in your
platform. urge the political wisdom OF
adopting this plank. Other political par
ties have dealt with 1t, and you have got
to- | ask you TO do il for your own pollti-
cal salvation. You are lost If you don't.
Mrs. Batch pointed out that their plank
only asked for submission OF the suffrage
question to the people in 1915. but it meant
that the Legislature should pass resolu-
tons to that effect next winter
Just at this moment the members Of
the committee looked up TO see DR.. Mary
Walker standing beside the chairman,
struggling to take off her overcoat which
was part of her mans garb, and exclaim-
ing:
We don't want anything OF the kind!
We don't want men 10 vote in regard TO
the rights of women. In doing that they
are doinS an unconstitutional act
Dr. Walker went on to say that the
federal Constitution provided for equal
rights for all. and in passing laws re-
stricting suffrage the states had done
something that was unconstitutional.
What DR.. Walker advocated vas that
the Legislature adopt resolution ac-
knowedging the right of women to vote.
The doctor would have talked longer.
but Senator Wagner reminded her that
many others wished to speak. She went
on talking, and finally one member OF
the committee handed her silk hat to her
and another her coat. When her umbrella
was passed to her she left the foor still
talking.

WOMEN WATCHING SYRACUSE
Sudragss Think 1t High Time New York State De-
mocracy Should Say Plainly What 1t Means to Do.

1t is high time for the Democratic party
OF New York State to say what II means
and mean what it says. 1t can better az
ford to let Tammany Hall dictate it's can
didate for Governor than to let it forbid
plank in the platform to give women the
only chance possible to them-a referen-
dunn of their case to the voters for de-
cision. If this is not Democracy what Is
the meaning Of the word?
Tho Amusing Anti Suffragists.
Can anybody tell exactly where the
women of the Suffrage Association
stand on this question? After the Repub-
lican convention adopted plank calling
upon the Legislature to submit the ques-
ton to the voters they expressed them
selves as perfectly satisfied. "Of course,
we are pleased" their national president
Mrs. Arthur NJ. Dodge, is quoted as say
ing. I'VE have always wanted a referen-
DUN 10 the people, and we got what we
wanted. But we hope and believe
the franchise will not be bestowed upon
u.s. and we are going to Albany this win
ter. as usual, to work hard against any
law looking to the amendment Of the Con-
stitution in this respect"
Mrs. Dodge shows some lack OF knowl
edge in saying that they will work hard
against any law as to amending the Con-
stitution." The Legislature has no power
to enact a law on the subject. All it can
do is TO adopt concurrent resolution to
submit a constitutional amendment to the
electors. The Republican convention de-
clared in favor Of its doing so, and Mrs.
Dodge said this was exactly what the
anti-suffragists wanted. but I'm the same
interview she announced that they would
20 to Albany as they had been doing for
years. to prevent the Legislature from
granting what they always had wanted"
Now, all that the suffragists are asking
Of the Democratic convention Is TO recon-
mend this same thing and the "antis"
have a delegation at Syracuse to prevent
II IL possible!
Mrs. Dodge also said: III the franchise
is bestowed upon the women Of New York
State / shall be first at the polls. All
snti-surragIsts win be because they are
conscientious" II Mrs. Dodge and her
cohorts were not first at the polls" they
would be different from the anti-suf-
fragists I'm any other state where the
franchise has been granted. They always
vote at the first opportunity and keep on
voting whenever they have chance. The
woman In a certain California city at
whose house an ant-suffrage society was
formed when the amendment was pend
ing started cut TO form Taft clubs among
the women as soon as the ballot was
granted, and is now a political "boss' in
her district, The fight for the franchise
Is rather a serious affair and rhe mission
Of the "antis' is TO give it touch Of
gayety and humor
The Prohbitionists OF New York de-
clared for woman suffrage at their state
convention last week. Socialists and Pro-
gressives have done the same. Repub-
lcaus have demanded a referendum.

Democrats propose to take their place?

SUFFRAG|STS SUSPECT
DEMOCRATIC LEADERS
They Warn Resolutions Com
mittee at Syracuse Not to
Leave Out Their Plank.
APPEAR IN FIGHTING TRIM
Ants" Also Receive Hearing,
and DR.. Mary Walker Advo-
Gates a Constitutional"
Plan of Her Own.

lFrom STAFF Correspondent Of The Tribune. !
syracuse, Oct l.-Fearing that the Dem
ocratic platform will not contain a woman
suffrage plank, although many leaders
here had given them grounds to believe
that such a plank would be adopted, the
advocates of the cause appeared before
the resolutions committee this afternoon
in fighting trim, and told the Democrats
they would not leave out the suffrage
plank II they had any political sagacity
left.
Mrs. Harriet Stanton Batch president
OF the Women'S Political Union, fearing
treachery, asked that before any suf-
frage plank be submitted to the conven-
ton the women be permitted to pass
on II.
You know" she argued, that there
can be Joker in every set of words"
Suffrage leaders who attended the Sara
toga convention as well as this drew
contrast between the treatment received
from the Republicans and that from the
Democrats.
"One would think these Democrats"
said one suffragist regarded women as
mere chattels, not entitled to any consid-
Grafton"
Opponents of woman suffrage were
heard first. DR.. Mary Walker, who is
opposed to the methods pursued by the
suffragists, was also heard.
Objects to Any Plank.
Mrs. George Douglas Miller, OF Albany,
L. - Al. la
New York State organization opposed to
woman suffrage, said they would prefer
to have no mention of the subject made in
the platform
However" she continued, If there is
to be a plank on suffrage, we would like
TO have it confined to a declaration SUBJ
hitting the question to a referendum
vote"
Miss Harriet May Mills was the first
speaker for the suffragists. She said
they would be satisfied with plank read
ing:
We advocate the submission of the
woman's suffrage constitutional amend
ment to the people in 1915.
Arguing in favor of the plank, Miss
Mills said:
Democrats YOU must do this II you wish
TO remain Democrats. You say that you
believe in the voice OF the people. II you
do you can't leave us out. We have
voices that should speak for themselves.
The question is If we are TO have
democracy or an aristocracy OF sex. |
am not allowed TO vote and | am Demo-
crat TO the backbone.

New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1912-10-02

There is an impression that the plat
form will recommend drastic changes in
the present primary law, and that it may
go so far as to declare for stately wide
direct primaries, which would do away
with the state convention.
The platform will commend the Dix adj
ministraton IN spite of the fact that
Thomas Mott Osborne will fight any full
some praise along that line 1t will suS-
gest changes in the election law and de-
clare in favor Of several laws that are
asked for by workmen and social work.
eTs
All matters that would require con-
stitutional amendment will be disposed
Of by referring them to a constitutional
convention, except possibly, that ref
erendum on woman suffrage will be IA
vored.
Just before the committee adjourned
Henry p. Keith of the opposition, offered
an anti-Murphy resolution. Senator Wag-
ner persuaded him not to read it, but he
gave out copies. 1t is not hard to guess
what the subcommittee will do with 1t.
1t reads:
Whereas, The Democratic party has
nominated candidates for President and
Nice-President on a Progressive platform;
ana,
Whereas, The State of New York is con-
fronted with a situation similar to that at
Baltimore, in that the public demands
progressive Governor, instead of one
dominated by Charles +. Murphy, who.
in turn, is controlled by the big bu. mess
interests; and,
Whereas, 1t appears certain that the
state ticket so natned will go down TO
defeat in November; be it
Resolved, That this convention declare
itself opposed TO the nomination of any
candidate on the Democratic state ticket
who will submit to the domination of any
individual or will fail to be guided by the
cardinal principles of home rule.

The question agitating the suffraglsts
Of the Empire State at the present mo-
ment is whether the Democratic State
Convention will put woman suffrage
plank in its platform. A few hours VIII
decide whether this shall be the only one
in New York which fails to contain such
a plank, lust as the Democratic candl-
date for President is the only one or the
five who has refused to declare himseii
in favor of the franchise for women! III
the Democrats can afford to stand on
such a record the women can afford TO
have them do so.
This party, however, more than all
others, should stand for woman Suffrage
because it shouts somewhat louder than
the Others for the rights Of the people
During Mr.. Bryan's last campaign for
the Presidency the whole country was
placarded with big posters, Let the REQ
pie Rulel" When the women inquired II
he was in favor of allowing them a voice
he answered that he had never gwen the
subject any special thought, and ne mas
said practically the same thing curing
the last few months. Why shouid ne
make II a matter of special" prayer and
fasting? If he really believes in the rule
Of the people" how can he exclude
women? From the time Woodrow wilson
started out to be elected Governor OF
New Jersey he put his own particular
brand on the slogan, THE People Must
Rule" and It is still working overtime.
Does he mean it literally or is he using
IL i'm the academic sense?

Fourteenth Amendment to the national
Constitution, which declared that "All
