THERE is one thing for which all

ETHERE is one thing for which all
suffragists should return thanks
to heaven, on their knees, and
that is that neither President Taft nor
ex-President Roosevelt is woman.
Suppose two women who were candi-
dates for the highest elective Office in
the gift of their sex-the presidency of
the Federation of Women's Clubs, or
the National Suffrage association, say
who had once been bosom friends, were
going about the country raking up each
others past and vilifying and abusing
each other like tishwives,
Suppose that the kindest epithet that
they hurled at each other was Hussy!
Cat, Liar! Ingratel Fat Slob, and
other compliments of the same kidney,
wouldn't there be heard from one end of
the country to, the other that such con-
duct showed that women were unfit for
s5T government or to participate in
government?
Wouldn't men declare that it proved
how emotional illogical and prejudiced
women were, and how unable they were
to bring the same calm, dispassionate
consideration to bear on public ques-
lions that men did?
Yea, verify
II two women who wanted the same
honor and Office should act as our two
most exalted statesmen are now doing
1t would put the cause Of suffrage for
women back so years. Look at the
hysteria of the performances" men
would cry Consider the disloyalty
and the treachery of them! Look at
the wire pulling Observe how brit
tie friendships are when they stand In
the way OF selfish ambition Certainly,
those who have no more self control
than is exhibited in this disgusting
struggle for place and power have no
right to the exercise of the franchise,
and it will be a cold Fourth of July
when we put the ballot in their hands,"
Lucky For SURFACE Cause.
Yes indeed it certainly is lucky for
suffragists that ME- Taft and Mr..
Roosevelt wear trousers instead of pet
ticoats, because if two women had en-
gagged in such q mud Singing contest
as they have, and had back bitten each
other as they have, we should have
proved to everybody's satisfaction that
we are too emotional to be trusted to
handle loaded weapon like the vote.
of course, there's no argument in the
kettle reminding the pot that 1t is also
black. but it is interesting and cynically
amusing to note how different is the
code Of morals and manners, even in
politics by which men and women are
judged Nobody. for instance. is fool
ish enough to think that the unseemly
wrangle between Mr. Taft and Mr.
Roosevelt indicates that men are UNI
fitted for self government, or should be
disfranchised, but If two women were
to contend that way for an office it
would be considered, and used, as a
potent argument against giving women
the right to vote.
When a man wants an office he goes
after it tooth and nail with a scalping
knife in one hand and a money bag in
the other. but when a woman wants an
Office she is lampooned and criticised

Women Must Keep Still.
Apparently when men do certain
things politically they are right. When
women do them they are wrong. Men
who believed that they had right to
voice in making the laws that rule
them have fought bloody battles to
establish their rights, and the world
Shrek. that is echoed around the
world has gone up because some wo-
men, who thought that they had a
right to a voice in making laws that
govern them. smashed few windows.
Heaven only knows what would hap
pen If woman should shed a drop of
blood in her struggle for liberty.
Another curious and humorous illus
tration of the things that a man may
90, and a woman may not do, is shown
in the right that men have to judge
a matter on its merits, while a wo-
man Is compelled to always lug in the
eternal sex equation. For example, you
often hear it said that Woman's cruelty
to woman makes countless thousands
mourn, and not that nobody is hard
on an erring woman as another wo-
man.
In the first place, there isn't word
of truth in this assertion. Women
are women's best friends and there is
no hand that is so steadily held out in
helpfulness to the unfortunate of her
sex as the woman's hand.
But that's not the point | want to
make here What | want to call at
tention to is that a man is accorded
perfect right to Judge another man
| freely, and say So II a man finds
another man to be a liar and a thief
and hypocrite nobody accuses him
of being actuated by jealousy and envy
| If he blackballs the unworthy one at a
club and refuses to associate with him
! If man commits a terrible crime no
body expects other men to be filled
with maudlin sentiment about him.
| No matter what another woman is
no other woman can ever criticise her
without being called a cat, and If she
has the moral courage and hardihood
| to hold that sex doesn't Justify crime
and that the woman who breaks the
law should be punished for it, every
body turns on her the old cry that it is
woman against woman, and that wo-
men have no pity for each other.
All of which means 1t battling and
a perplexing job to be a woman but
amidst its difficulties Providence has
vouchsafed us one mercy-it made Taft
and Roosevelt our brothers instead OF
our sisters. Otherwise we should never
have heard the last of the dangers OF
the emotional sex In politics. and the
polls would have been the north pole
to which no skirt would have pene
trated for a generation to come.
AS it is we have hopes, and we point
with pride to the fact that the two
ladies who are now rivals for the dis
tinguished Office of president of the
Federation of Women's Clubs are con
