w. C.. T. u. Notes

The Union met at Mrs. Il. +. Cook 8
Friday afternoon, October 20, at 2:3O.
A most excellent report of the County
Convention held at GAINESVILLE was
given by Mrs. Elmer Cook a delegate.
The topic for the day was "Equal
Franchise" the following is part OF
paper written by one OF the Relding
members tor the County Convention:
When the suffrage amendment was
submitted to the people, some forty
years ago, the writer recalls attending
suffrage convention in the senate
chamber of our state capitol at Lansing.
Ralph Waldo Emerton said that as
soon as majority of American women
asked for the right of franchise, the
majority of men would vote for it.
Most of the state papers are favor
able To us, and in the language OF the
day, they say-."It is up TO the women
to convince men that majority of
women do want suffrage" Our promi-
nent men come out squarely in favor
of the amendment >
We expect the united opposition
of all the forces of evil, backed by the
liquor traffic.
They will pour out money like water
TO defeat the cause of right, even as
they did in the West.
Before we were organized for this
campaign, they were sending out their
pernicious literature, for they believe
that women stand for temperance.
But the brewers champaign of Edu-
cation" SO called, will not begin TO
work the harm TO our cause, as will the
apathy of women.
The indifference of the many women
and the opposition of the few, stands as
wall that Sufi'ragists must break
down before we win the victory.
Women sheltered in good homes,
must be aroused to see that they are
not only standing in their own light,
but are doing a grave wrong TO our
sister wage-earners, eight million
strong, who need the ballot 10 protect
their rights.
Now then-Shall we catch up with
China? The women of China having
suffrage are privileged in this respect
beyond American women. If these
women who are SO intellectually in
ferior TO US are considered by their
government fitted to intelligently cast a
ballot, what of the thousands of women
in America who are as well read and
well informed as thousands of the male
population and more so than the
majority of foreigners who become
American citizens?

HOW TO VOTE

THE only safe way for n Republican
this year 10 cast his ballot is 10 vote il
straight When voter goes to the
booth and begins TO scribble around
with his pencil ne is liable TO make n
blunder and spoil his ballot so that it
won't count.
With five national tickets printed on
the ballot, Republican, Democratic,
Prohibition, Socialist, Progressive and
Socialist Labor, it would be very con
rusing to endeavor TO split up among
the list, cross of aud mark out in the
different places necessary to endeavor
TO have il count without making n
mistake. The only safe and sure way
for Republican to 90 is to make an \
in the circle al the head Of the Repub-
ican ticket, il that is done all mistakes
will be avoided and the work is quickly
accomplished without any flss, worry
or confusion.

a QUESTION WHICH PERSONAL =
CONCERNS EVERY WORN.
iNCMAN.
PLAIN STATEMENT CT FACT
Why Should Men Who are Now Ce.-
ting Good Wages on Steady Jots
Vote TO Overthrow Good
Times and Invite idleness
for Themselves.
Do not make target of your dinner

Do not make target of your dinner
pail
This is good advice to every working
man. Why should the man who is
working al a good job and drawing
good wages regularly every week run
the risk of throwing himself out of EN-
ployment II knows conditions are
good now under Republican admin
stration. If Democratic administra-
ton should be elected the distressing
times of 1893 will be repeated.
A splendid condition now prevails
in the building and other trades
throughout the entire country. In every
section building is active and the pros
pect for the future most promising. So
far from there being lack of demand
for labor, the almost universal complaint
is of dearth of laborers. This is par
ticularly true in the structural iron
trades, where the contractors complain
that they are unable to get men enough
to carry forward the work they have
on hand. Ii is also a gratifying fact
that at no point in the country is there
any dispute between contractors and
workmen regarding hours, wages or
working conditions. This is a situation
which has rarely existed in the past.
and is one Of the results of the safe,
stable and busnesslike administration
of the government by President Taft
Is il wise TO take the chance of chang
ing these conditions and becoming in
volved in the troubles which inevitably
accompany a change of political ad-
ministration? It is we'll to remember
the conditions which were brought
about by a political change In 1892. v
that year, as in this, business was activ
everywhere up to election day; but
when it became known that there was
10 be a change in public policy, there
was an immediate contraction in under
takings of all sorts which speedily
brought about a condition of panic, tn
worst the country had ever know
And the very first TO suffer in that panic
were the building trades. New con-
struction ceased almost completely and
thousands of men were compelled to
abandon their trades and work At any
odd job they could find to make living
for their families.
The causes which produced such dire
effects from 1893 to 1897 would produce
similar effects now. The continuance
In power of the present administration
,aIld not possibly disturb business, fol-
ever, body would know what to eIpec;
and things would move right on. To
place in power another administration
pledged TO different policies would bring
about a condition of doubt and uncer-
tainty which is always disturbing to
business.
Men with money 10 invest would be
sure to wait until they could see what
the new administration was going 10
do. Workingmen cannot afford to wait
Labor cannot be put into cold storage
| Wo-kingmen must cash in days work
every day or they lose it. A change
which would adversely affect the bust
ness Of the country would hit the work
ingman first and hardest. Do they want
to take any chancesf
