WOMAN SUFFRAGE
DsEcoND ONLY no DEATH. .

All the world has read Of the i'm
parchment trial of Governor Sulzer,
of New York. The newspaper re-
ports of the trial include a state
ment by Governor Suffers counsel
to the effect that "thc impeachment
trial is uncquiYOcally criminal
trial with the punishment Of dis
franchisement like only to that Of
death attached to verdict Of gull
~" Men are constantly telling
women that the vote does not
amount to anything-that the de-
NAL of the franchise TO women is no
disgrace-bute very once in while
women are SHOWN what men really
think Of the value Of the franchise
for themselves.
Living Up To Woman Suffrage.
Since tie women OF Illinois were
granted partial suffrage few
months ago the demands Mpon the
public library OF Chicago have been
SO heavy that the librarian, Henry
4. Legler, las announced the open
ing Of suffrage study room for
women. The books at hand include
the following:

Southern Women Determined to
Vote.

Wherever the proposed suffrage
amendment to the constitution OF
the United States is discussed, some
one is almost sure to say, But the
south will kill the amendment
They believe in states right you
know" The call for the annual
convention at til" Tennessee Equal
Suffrage Association is therefore
somewhat surprising to those who
have dismissed the southern states
from suffrage calculations. IT
reads in part: THE fourteenth
amendment was passed in 1865 for
the purpose of cnfranchising the ne
gro men. and il our governors and
political masters will not heed nnr
pleading. we too. tile wOmcA OF the
soutl. will have to accept our polit-
zeal freedom from this same source.
In other words. ii the state lcgiSia-

fords a varied program of events, es-
pecially if the itinerary includes for

constructed over the Yellow river

During the journey we could travel

some cross roads-or mud hut town,

Consideration for His Mother.

A young man who recently "tanked
up and while under the influence OF
liquor made an eggregirious ass of
himself bitterly complained to the
present writer because the Herald had
reported his outrageous conduct with
out consideration for the feelings of
his mother. A newspaper man is con-
stantly having experiences similar to
this. Boys make fools of themselves
and then think that the newspapers
should be blind to their misconduct
because OF their mothers. Why is it
that the boys don't think of their
mothers before they load up with a
thankful of bellywash and then start
out to paint the town? If young
fellow doesn't care enough for his
mother to keep out of bad company
and refrain from conduct that merits
jail or penitentiary sentence, why
should he expect a newspaper man
to shield him by remaining mute as
to his misdeeds? This newspaper
sympathizes with every broken heart
ed mother, but its sympathy is based
on an appreciation OF the fact it is
her boys acts, rather than what any
newspaper says, that brings disgrace
to her home and sorrow to her soul.
