slums in public parades; organized

Result-2,048 arrests, fines and
imprisonments; rotten egged; bonn

bats; chased from public squares and
streets; trampled, booed, Kissed,
whipped, spanked; utter defeat in
Parliament of ''Votes for Women
cause.
Motto-''No Votes, No Peace"
The above table was compiled up
to June 9Th, and took no note of the
performance of the young woman
who threw herself in front of King
Georges horse while the celebrated
Derby was being run, and seriously
injured the jockey, injured the horse
so badly that it died, and paid with
her own life for the spectacular piece
of folly.
Two other stunts must be added to
the list, and they are given in the
form in which they appeared in the
newspapers of the issues dated:
Lanberis, Wales, Aug. 19.-Suf-
fragettes today destroyed beautiful
historic altar cloth in the Paris
church at the foot Of Mount Snow
don.
Bedford, England, Aug. ia
large lumber yard was burned here
today by militant suffragettes.
Senator Tillman is opposed to the
granting of the ballot box to women,
and when the question is put to the
last analysis, this is the only point
on which the women seem to agree.
They started we'll enough, with a
we'll defined idea of what the rights
of women should be, but they got
mlX0u III L101I az OIL COL AJ
date, and they have lost sight of the
rights, and demand only that they
may be allowed to vote, as the one
way to make them 1.-The equal Of
men. In speaking of the matter,
Senator TilIman said:
eff the California men had our
customs, Diggs and Caminetti would
not be allowed to go to trial now be-
cause they would have been shot like
dogs.
Among our very rich people in
America the generation has gone so
far that swapping wives is common
practice. The women are just as bad
as the men"
If conditions were alike in England
and the limited States, it would not
be so hard to reconcile ones self
with the craze which seems to be
spreading among our women. The
Englishman, on the whole, is a crea-
ture who rules by brute force-and
this includes everything from the dog
he owns to the wife he has married.
The statistics of the divorce courts
in which so many of our American
women figure, who have married
Englishmen-titled and otherwise,
prove this beyond a doubt. Among
the middle classes, the brute force
rule is even more strongly observed,
and the cout is are filed daily with
arrests who have come with black

a agine the whole lot of them
had gone daft, and when we
are warned by no less a person than
Senator Tillman that "the Suffrage
craze will ruin the United States"
we take seriously what he says.
The New York World has compiled
the following table, and while it ap-
plies only to the English Suffragettes,
we have been informed by no less an
authority than Mrs. o. H. P. Bel
mont an ardent" worker in 1.-The
Cause" that the same tactics will be
tried in this country when the au-
tumn campaign begins.
Here is the table from the New
York World:
Siege of the House of Parliament,
fighting the police with tooth and
nail, with brickbats and bursting
bombs of sitting acids; whips and red
pepper; pelting them with tiles
ripped off roofs with fire axes;
charges of battalions of umbrella

Roman candles.

Queen Mary's ear; hurled "Votes for

men and killed one.
Smashed more than 10000 win

on election day; ruined $4,000 worth
of orchids in Kew Gardens; defaced

SULZER STATEMENT
GAINS NO SYMPATHY

NEW YORK. Oct 1s.-Although
sympathy was expressed for ex-Gov.
Sulzer today, the consensus OF opin-
ion in political circles was that the
EXPLANATION he Issued last night ex.
planned very little.
Suffers version was, In brief.
that Boss Murphy Of Tammany be
gan war on him when he refused TO
call off the investigation OF graft
which had cost the state millions.
that he never speculated In stocks.
that he never appropriated cam.
paign contributions; that he was
$40 900 in debt when he was nomi-
mated for governor, but had more
assets than he mas now; that Dun.
can w. Peck and Allan A. Ryan's
The Seattle star. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1899-1947, 1913-10-18

testimony against him was false.
and that he was "lynched" by n
Tammany controlled Legislature
II was hard to find a politician
who did not agree that Tammany in.
spired the prosecution. or who was
not convinced that Il was inspired
because Sulzer refused 10 take or.
ders from Murphy
But II was equally hard to find
one who did not believe the prose
cutlon made out It's case
And few believed Sulzer can ever
again make even respectable
showing as a candidate for gov
ernor.
The deposed executive announced
he was going on the lecture plat
form.
