WHY Wilson Is the Man.

took the stump" and told the Cali
fOrnia newly enfranchiScd Women
why, in her opinion, they should
vote for Woodrow Wilson.
Beginning with the announcement
that Il can not see much difference
in the personal platforms of Wilson
and Roosevelt" Mrs. AthertOn deliv-
cred an epigrammatic attack upon
Colonel Roosevelt, and like de
fcnse of Governor Wilson. She sal0
i'll part:
"Seventy years ago Charlotte
Bronte invented Roosevelt in the
character Rochester. Since tha;
time women have loved Rochester,
the man who was 100 per cent male.
| confess that | have sneaking al
fectiOn for the type. Rochester was
colossal bluffer-the self-sufficiert
man. Roosevelt is of that sort.
"Woodrow Wilson is a man who
always exercises self-cOntrOl. HI
will never be found acting like a
bull moose. It will never be pos
sible to call Woodrow Wilson
"Woody" as Roosevelt is call"
"Teddy.
"RecentIy Roosevelt burst out fo
suffrage for women. Wilson is OPP
posed to woman suffrage, and is tOt
honest to say that he is for it. H.
has a few old fashioned prejudlce&
But the best way to- correct them j.
to vote for Wilson and con>inc
him by that means that suffrage fo'
women is a good thing"
