homes. our wives and our children against

sion. against mobs and riots. against
crime and disorder and all the army OF

II is so with men. IL Is a great mistake
1t is a fatal mistake that these excel

the functions of men are superior 10
theirs and seek 10 usurp them. the true
government is in the family The true

exercise of power is that which forms
the conscience. influences the Will. con

From The Tribune Bureau
Washington. Feb "a bomb was fired
by the anti-suffra gists into the camp of
the slifragists to-day i'm the form of n
statement of Senator Root that suffrage
Tor women would be loss 10 them and
an INJURY 10 the state. The statement Of
the Senator from New York follows:
l am opposed to the granting of suf-
frage 10 women because ! believe that it
would be a loss to women. TO all women
ana 10 every woman. and because | be-
heVe 1t would be an injury TO the state
ana TO every man and every woman in
the state. II would be useless TO argue
this If the right of suffrage were nat
ural right. If it were a natural right.
then women should have il. though the
heavens fail. But u there be any one
thing settled in the long discussion of this
subject, II is that suffrage is not Il nat
ural right. but is simply a means of gov
eminent: and the sole question To be dis
cuSsed is whether government by the suf-
frage of men and women will he better
government than by the suffrage OF men
alone.
The question j.. therefore. q question
of eXpediency. and the question of ex-
pediency upon this subject is not qucs-
ton of tyranny. but a question of liberty.
a question of the preservation OF free con-
stitutional government or law order.
peace and prosperity.
No Question Of lnferiority.
Into my judgment enters no element
of the inferiority of women. 1t is not
that woman is inferior TO man. but it is
that woman l. different from man: that
in the distribution of powers of capaci-
ties, of qua ilieS. our Maker has created
man adapted to the performance OF Ger
tain functions in the economy of nature
and society. and woman adapted to the
performance OF other functions.
"One question To he determined IN tie
discussion of this subject is whether the
nature of woman is such that her taking
upon herself the performance of the rnnc-
lions implied in suffrage Will leave her In
the possession and the exercise OF her
