THE sUFFRAGETTE PARADE

The suffragette parade at Washing
ton yesterday served to attract moro
attention to the equal suffrage cause
than any occurrence in the United
States except the somewhat ludicrous
march of the suffragette army" to
Albany last fall, but failed in the
senatorial elements that have made
the agitation of the British suffraget-
tes notorious throughout the world.
The parade served to illustrate, in q
way, the difference between British
and American methods Of achieveing
the same end. The British women
seek to secure the suffrage by burn
ing the houses Of statesmen, destroy
ing the mails, and kindred outrages.
The American women take 1t out in
hiking along muddy roads. or in
parrding the streets Of the national
capital, and in much talking. On the
whole, the American method appears
to be the saner of the two, and apt to
convince American men Of the justice
of the suffrage cause fully as speedily
as the British method will convince
the men of Britain that the women
should be granted the privilege Of
the ballot.

REoRGAN1z1NG GRAND PARTY

Washington, Feb. 27.-The propos-
ition to hold republican national
convention this year or. at any rate,
prior to the congressional elections
next year. which has been mooted for
some time, has been growing in NOM
etum and substance and is 80 tangi-
BILE now that the forecasts are that it
will be called very soon, meeting of
the national republican committee
to consider the matter and issue the
call. The convention would be like a
regular republican national conven-
ton except that 1t would not nomin-
ate candidates for any Office.
The matter has been preached
among republican leaders in Wash
ington and has been discussed with
great earnestness and the time seems
ripe for q convention. One of those
in the matter is Senator. Crane, who
is member Of the republican nation.
al committee, who issued thereon q
short statement. It follows:
"The feeling among the republicans
Is that the party ought somehow to
be got together in national conven-
ton. however extraordinary thisis.el
might be. Tho notion is to show tina,
the party is still great, live and
thinking force. The ostensible and 9
very sufficient reason on its own &C
count will be that the party in ma
tional convention should consider
the method in vogue in tho represen
tation of delegates in it, and particul
arly with reference to the south. A,
IS we'll known, this has given grea,
dissatisfaction in the past and was
one of the causes of the split in the
party last year which has resulted &C
seriously. The method of procedure
in the convention is also suggested az
worthy Of reformation and discussion,
principles possibly also. Undesirable
leaders may also be retired"
Holding the convention would be q
formidable matter and the delegates
would have to be selected after the
manner OF 9 grand convention to
nominate candidates for president
and vice president.
None. of course. other than real
republicans would be allowed to at.
tend the convention In an official ca.
pacity. 1t 10 declared that it 10 not Sc
much to bring about . reunion with
the split-off Republicans, now called
progressfves, as to consolidate the
real republicans that the convention
will be held az is desired. Present
conservative republicans and present
progressive republicans, like Borah
and LaFollette, are said to be unit
in favor of the plan to hold = con-
vention.

NOT A PARTISAN TRIUMPH

There was no boast of party, no pride
OF political victory in the inaugural ad-
dress that opened the official career Of

There was, rather. tone Of sorrow
that the republic had stayed 70 far
away from high national morals q to
render necessary q sharp rebuka to the
architects of misgovernment by the
ninety million people who had trusted
them in representative capacity.
Mr. Wilson recited the sins into which
the nation has fallen and pointed out
the pathway over which it can retrace
its steps. With great riches have come

The new president proposed TO the
