Hammond cleaned the platter Mt the
democratic convention at Gary this aft
ernOOn, winning three out of the seven
ofhces-audftOr, representative and
coroner. There was spirited attend
ance and the feature of the convention
was the exposition of the power of
Thomas f. Knots of Gary, who was
named permanent chairman over Judge
Johannes Kopelke of Crown Poirt by a
vote of "a to 30. As there were only II.
delegates 1t looked like a little ballot
box stuffing. 1t was a bad day for the
Judges. Judge Becker of Hammond got
his twice. He put in nomination John
Rohde for auditor and James frost for
sheriff and both lost out. John HamiI-
tom of Gary was secretary of the con-
ventfon, and the way the Gary boys put
things over was astOnfs hing. Gary
went to Ed Simon with a veng eance and

J. W. Howe, of Abilene, Secretary
OF the State Democratic Editorial As.
ISOLATION, says that fully 80 per cent
of the Democratic papers in the state
are supporting Hodges for Governor,
both for the nomination and election.
OF all the papers received by him,
only six are against him.
With this kind of backing. it looks
like Hodges is the logical candidate
and the OILY one that can pull the
full party vote. 1t would seem to be
a conservative estimate to say that
these papers reflect the sentiment at
least of so per cent of the party vot.
ers Of their respective localities. All
of which would go to show that Hodg,
es is by far the strongest man for
Governor.
The hope Of the Democratic party
in Kansas is the Democratic dailies
and weeklies. The party must win
by their efforts. No great metropolitan
papers ever espouse the cause Of the
Democratic party. With this kind OF
situation, the Democrats should not
go back on the wishes of their papers
but should nominate the man that can
get the undivided support of every
Democratic paper in the state.

"THE DREAM OF WOMAN"

Through the expression Of tender
sadness that illumines all the por-
traits of the martyred Lincoln, we
see the signs of an old sorrow, and
in his eyes the shadow Of an old
heartache. There was a wild-rose
slip Of girl in a Slated blue bonnet
with whom he walked the lanes of
his home-spun days. There was a
clever, cultured woman whose bril-
liant intellect lighted his ascending
way to the Illinois legislature. And
there was the belle Of the gay social
set at Springfield, who fluttered
across his path as it led to Washing
ton These were the women he court
ed. They all loved Lincoln. One he
loved; one he tried to love; and one
he married. To these women, the
greatest American was nearer than
the lofty figure on a high Pc
destal; they heard his heart beat.
One Of them today lies near the
Sangamon, where he loved her. To
the last, there was with him the long,
long sorrow Of her loss that cast It's

LET THEM VOTE.

Some clean-cut and forceful argu-
ments for the cause of woman's sui
trage were presented recently by Edi-
tor Napier In his Newton Kansan-Re-
publican, as follows:
The women Of Kansas will be
granted equal suffrage by the men
Of Kansas at the election this fall.
There is really not much grounds
left to doubt this statement A great
many men are secretly hoping the
proposition will carry this fall, and
intend to vote for it. AS a matter
OF fact, were 1t clearly shown that
the women Of Kansas really want to
vote, as a rule, there would not be
10000 votes registered against their
voting. There can be no question as
to the equity in the matter. The
women have as much right to vote
Is they have to become business wo-
nsa, teach school, write letters as
SteaAgrapheB. own property or pay
taxes. Furthermore, no well inform
ed nan is ready to deny that the
average woman is as we'll qualified
to vote as the average man. Some
MeA who are comparison on the
question q equal suffrage, freely con-
tead that women as a rule are &C.
tuAly better qualified to vote than
are mem They are not so suscepti-
BILE to the influence of prejudice of
party. They are inclined to express
their true sentiments ON matters of
real Importance. The argument Is
used that it is the woman's place to
kee0 the home, and If she performs
that duty as 1t should be done, she
will have no time to devote to poll
tics. It would be as logical to argue
that L Is a mans duty to pursue his
vocation Of providing for that home,
end therefore has no time to fool
sWay with politics. As a class, wo-
men possess higher ideals Of life
thaA do men as a class. Even thougl
gIViAG them the general ballot may
not WORT any great process Of purfi.
catiOa Of politics, certainly they win

expense Of our elections. Perhaps 1t
would. It even increased the cost Of
elections to strike the chains Of slav-
cry from a race of people and make
them free American citizens The
argument is also used that each wo-
man would vote just as her husband
would. There is no foundation for
such argument. We know a family
wherein the husband and wife con-
suited after the city election instead
of before, and found that but one
candidate was supported by both.
Furthermore, there are numerous WI
dows and unmarried women, property
owners and taxpayers, who have as
fine intellects and as full and CON-
plete knowledge as the bachelors
and widowers, who are as completely
disfranchised in this great free coun-
try as though they were inhabitants
Of the land Of the Hottntots.
There is a question Of fairness and
equity In the matter. Is It right for
the men to sit in judgment on this
proposition and IN their power and
dignity, and merely because Of that
power, deny suffrage to their sisters!
Kansas men are chivalrous and fair
and honorable There is no complaint
on the part Of even the most ardent
women supporters In the question,
on the opposition Of men who have
considered the matter and conscien-
tiously made up their minds to Cd
pose equal suffrage. It Is but q small
thing for the men Of Kansas to do
for the fair women Of the state to
render to them the right to vote.
The beauty and goodness and virtue
of Kansas women constitutes the
gneatest blessing Of which the state
boasts possession. No greater tribute
to them can be paid at this time
than for Kansas men to start a move
ment that shaal leave no opposition
to granting them equal suffrage thia
fall. The men owe It to our women,
to, in truth and In fact, make them
companions ! n all things-in thu
home. IN society. in learning, In bus.
iness and In politics To do 30 will
show strength, not sentiment; man.
