feel that the men judges of the
various courts Would have held
long ago that such action would
have been unconstitutional. So
if it would have been unconsti-
tutional for the women to have
framed the constitution of Kan
sas and to have deprived the men
of the right to vote, l say it is
unconstitutional for the men to
haye met and denied the women
of this right and privilege. To
use rather homely, but fore
ible, familiar expression: What

sauce for the gander.' If it
would have been unconstitutional
for the women to have done this.
it was also unconstitutional for
the men. | believe that under
the fundamental law of this land
and under the highest authority
we have-the Constitution of the
United States-they are legally
entitled to vote, and should not
longer be deprived of that right
by the men.
l shall gladly support the con-
stitutional amendment, and hope
later to take more time to dis
cuss the question from a moral
standpoint, whereby it will Sc
cure equal justice, nobler pur-
poses, better government, and
the highest and purest citizen
ship. I ask that the petitions
be referred to the Committee on
Woman Suffrage.

Frederick the Great of Prussia was
not above dispatching an officer to
study their work. The British hus-
sar dates from 1866, when the Sew
enth regiment was converted from
light dragons into hussars.
In Prussia the Red Hussars, under
their famous leader, Gen. Won Zle-
than, showed their valor in the seven
years war waged by Frederick the

Congressman Medley is bidding
for more free advertising by his OPP
position to the Currency Bill ap.
proved by President Wilson and
Secretary Bryan. Medley wanted
to amend the bill so as to provide
for the issue of currency against
warehouse certificates of cotton,
corn, and wheat, but the committee
thought these certificates not proper
basis for currency.
Following the usual tactics of the
demagogue, Medley is trying to
make it appear, by articles prepar-
ed by himself and published in
newspapers wearing his collar, that
the turning down of his amendment
is discrimination against the farm
err. The facts are that the farmer
lost nothing by the rejection of this
amendment, and would have gained
nothing by its adoption. If his
amendment had provided fer loan
ing money to the farmer and taking
these warehouse certi6cated as Sc
curity it would have been a differ
emit matter, but no such provision
was incorporated in the proposed
amendment. Farmers, like every
one else, are interested IN the sound
ness of currency, but it makes no
difference to anyone whether the
currency is based upon warehouse
certificates, government bonds,
railroad bonds, farm mortgages, or
something else, so long as the Sc
curity is sound and readily convert
able into cash.
1t is the desire of the Democrats
of the Seventh District that their
representative work with, and not
against the administration, and this
grandstand play of Mr.. Neeley's
will not gain him anything, as the
people are getting wise to his meth

Thompson On Suffrage
CONTINUED from page II

1t will hardly be argued by
anyone that women are not citi-
zens. If they are admitted to
be citizens, their legal right to
vote is already clearly establish
ed by law.
While l believe no constitution
al amendments really necessary
to give the right of equal suff-
rage, yet if it will aid In any way
to bring about equal suffrage
throughout the United States l
am certainly in favor of the pro-
posed amendment. The only
reason we have not enjoyed wom-
an suffrage throughout the
United States is because the
men have originally assumed the
right and the power to deprive
the women of this legal right of
suffrage. In the early days the
men in my State, who perhaps
were not then as just and chiv-
alrous as they are in. this day,
met and framed the constitution
of the State. In doing so, while
under the Constitution of the
United States the women were
equal citizens with them, they
deprived them of their most sac
red right of citizenship, that of
voting.
l have often wondered what
the result would have been had
the women assumed this right
and met and framed the consti-
tuition of Kansas, and deprived

AGE Of Leap Year Child.


The age Of leap year child was
the chief point involved in the case
of Cowden VS.. State before the Texas
court Of criminal appeals. The child
claimed that she was born on Febru-
airy 80, 1896, and her mother and
brother also testified to that effect,
while her father and other witnesses
Insisted she was born February 90,
1898. The child testified that the only
birthdays she remembered were in
1904 and 1908. The conflict between
the father and mother as to the age
of the child caused the trial Judge to
permit the sheriff and deputy sheriff
to testify TO their acquaintance with
the general reputation of the child as
to her age. They said she was thir-
teen and not fifteen years old. The
higher court reversed the case be-
cause OF this testimony, holding that
the age of child whose parents
we're alive could not be proved by
general reputation. although the par
ents testified differently as to the age.
