CALLS WILSON FOE
TO UNION LABOR
Camden Typographical Chief
Urges Workmen to Support
President Taft.

Before an audience of more than
200 toolworkers of the Atha Tool Com
pany, at noon, Charles M. Curry,
president of the typographical union,
of Camden, declared that Governor
Woodrow Wilson was the arch enemy
Of the workingman and a believer in
~aristocracy. Before entering upon his
address he showed his union card
and said he was really able to carry
it because President Taft had upheld
union labor and had done all pos
sible to protect American labor and
workers.
Some people want a change de-
clared the speaker, land a few years
ago got it. 1t was the SOU kitchen.
Now let me ask you: Are you men
who are earning a good days wages
because of the protective tariff going
to place your jobs in peril?" Con-
tinuing he said that during the Cleve-
land panic, according to Samuel Com
pers. "there were 5000, 900 men in the
United States out of work, while the
mills of England, Germany and
France were running full blast and
reaping our rewards"
In proclaiming that Governor Will
son believed in letting the children Of
the working classes continue to do
the dirty" work, the speaker read
extracts from an article credited to
a former Princeton graduate living
in Los Angeles. In it he states that
Governor Wilson said that he (Wil-
SOM was a believer in favoring the
upper classes and keeping the chill
dren of the working people in the
same rut in order that they might
continue to do the labor of the coun-
try.
Former Congressman II. Wayne
Parker then spoke of the tariff and
the results it would have upon the
American workman should 1t be re-
duced.
There were large meetings at the
Krementz Jewelry Company and the
Murphy Varnish Works. al which
Fred Steckel. jr.. Joseph Steiner,
David Fitterer and Robert A. Trimble
were the speakers. They discussed
both national and State issues.

PECULIARLY M
A

BY REV. NJ. :. WATERS. OF Newark.
Pastor Grace English Lutheran Church.
[ know of only one valid argument
against giving our women the right Of
suffrage. II is that they will do the
work so much better than we that
they will take the job away from us.
Our women are the most efficient and
determined in the world, and when
they set out to do a piece of work
they get it done. Where we have
been making unsightly botches of u
political doings, especially in the gov
eminent of our cities, the ome will
lay hold earnestly and do things as
they ought to be done. Thus my only
objection becomes one of the strong
est arguments in favor of the propo-
sition.
My main reason in believing in the
new political venture is that we have
come upon a new time in II Civic
affairs which is peculiarly woman's.
It is not so much the democratizing
of our liberty as the socializing of
our democracy that concerns us the
most vitally today. The call now is
to bring our political principles down
to our social conditions. How politi-
cal policies affect the lives of our
wage-earners, our women, and, above
| all. our children; how improve living
conditions for all, guard our lives and
our homes from vicious invasion, i'm
prove our cities so as to make them
| cleaner and more wholesome places
to live in-these are the questions
which have come upon us almost over
night. Not only, nor indeed, SO much
the tariff, as better conditions of life
for man. woma and child, is the real
issue in our day. This is par excel
lence woman's sphere. for which she
is best fitted and where she will take
her place by mans side at the polls
and give him new courage to meet
the difficult problems of our present
day civilization.

Ever the Same

When we wore trains that swept the
street,
AND cleaned the sidewalk off COM
plete,
And kept the curb all clean and neat.
They kicked about it.
And when our skirts climbed up a bit
Some inches from the dirt and grit,
And showed our shoes. all neat and
fit,
They kicked about it.
Dressed In a dinky little hat,
They laughed and ieered and smiled
at that.
But when we donned a baby flat
They kicked about it.
Since they began to write the novel,
They've told how we, in hall or
hovel,
To catch a man would hunt and
grovel-
And kicked about 1t.
But since a little change began,
And some of us who've learned the
plan,
Aren't quite so crazy for a man
They kick about it.
Race suicide calls forth their tear,
But let a widow lone appear
With nine at Ellis Island, they'll
steer
Her back, and kick about 1t.
II beats all Halifax how sage
And driveling fool from age to age
win still their ponderous minds en-
gage
With Us; no doubt about it
What lordly brain did first begin it
Good Heavens sake, what is there
In 1t?
why can't they let us be a Minute
We wouldn't kick about it.

talks ABOUT HIS 1
BLONDE ESk|MOS
Discoverer of Polar Tribe Lee
lures for Social Set
Element. v

In the interests of the Orange VAL
ley Social Settlement. a lecture was
given last night by Professor Will
Museum of Natural History, diseov-
erer of the blonde Eskimos. He gave
an interesting account of the tribe.
He organized a polar expedition In
1908 and spent much of his time at
Point Barrow, on the north coast
of Alaska, where he made a study
of the life and customs of these peo-
pie. Professor Stefansson told OF
their custom of exchanging wives.
sometimes for an indefinite length of
time and often the exchange be-
comes permanent.
These people have an unusual idea
in the matter of discipiining their
children. They do not punish them
for wrongdoing, as they believe that
after a deceased relative has been
buried it waits for the soul of a baby
and as that child in the family grows
up, the parents will not correct the
child, as its soul is supposed to be
dominated by the grandmother, aunt
or whoever the relative may be.
The Eskimos are not barbaric, he
says, but have their own peculiar
ideas of politeness and courtesy.
They are curious, yet would not look
over the shoulder of another. In call
ing to pay a visit they sing to an
nounce their approach to the house.
They live in snow houses part of the
year.

.ALL WOMEN HAVE
SUFFRAGE RIGHT
Bergen Assemblyman Tells
Why He Believes in
Cause.
BY CHARLES O'CoNNOR HENNEsSY'
AssembIyman, Bergen County.

BY CHARLES O'CoNNOR HENNEsSY'
AssembIyman, Bergen County.
l confess to feeling some Impotence
with those who raise the question OF
whether or not women in New Jer-
sey, or elsewhere, would make a wise
use of the right to vote if they had 1t.
The essential question is not what
use women would make of a right
hat is now denied them, but whether
a right is denied them.
Have @women, in a republic. the
same right as men to be permitted
to participate in the making of the
laws and the administration of the
government under which they must
live? To my mind to ask the ques-
ton is to answer it, for the right of
all women to vote in a republic rests
upon precisely the same principle
which operates to give votes to all
men. Government is, or should be,
the concern of all, for all and by all,
since just governments are instituted
and maintained by the consent of
all, for securing the rights to life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness
for all.
In a land where it is said the
people rule, there can justly be nc
special favor shown to sex any more
than to race, religion or previous
conditions.
When we subscribe to the propo-
sition that government should be of,
for and by the people we may not
deny the right to participate
in the making of government unless
we contend that women are not peo-
pie.
There has never been an adequate
answer to the contention that undei
opr form of government every person
of competent age should have al
equal right with every other person
in effecting a majority which is t.
determine the management of pub,
lie affairs that are common to all.
The argument is made that womel
should not be permitted to vote unit
they are more fit to vote; until the!
know all about politics and TIL,
science of government. This argu
ment, of course, makes intelligence,
the test, a test that | fear would b.
unfortunate for a good many mel
whose voting privilege is not nov
questioned.
The argument that no woman shall
be permitted to participate in gov
eminent until all women r fitte'
for self-government is in principl
the same argument that in all age
has been used to justify government
by kings. tyrants and aristocracies
The good old rule, the simple plaT
That they should take who hav
the power,
And they should keepkwho can"
Kings, tyrants and ~aristocracie
have always. scorned the intelligenc
of the common run of men-have lai
it down as a rule that no peopl
ought to be free until they are f
to use their freedom. Macaulay sal
of this maxim that it was worthy

resolved never to go near the waite
