am opposed to the granting of suf-
frage to women, because | believe that
it would be loss to women. to all
women, and to every woman; and be-
cause believe it would be. an injury
to the state, and to every man and ev-
cry woman in the state. 1t would be
useless to argue this if the right of
suffragage were a natural right If It
were natural right, then women
should have it though the heavens fall
But if there be any one thing settled in
the long discussion of this subject, i;
is that suffrage is not a natural right.
but is simply means of government.
and the sole question to be discussed
is whether government by the suffrage
of men and women will be better gov.
eminent than by the suffrage of men
alone.
The question is, therefore,a question
of expediency, and the question of ex-
pediency upon this subject is not a
question Of tyranny but a question of
liberty a question of the preservation
of free constitutional government, of
law, order peace and prosperity.
Into my judgment there enters no
element of the inferiority of woman.
1t is not that woman is inferior 70
man, but it is that woman is different
from man; that in the distribution Of
powers, of capacities, of qualities, our
Maker has created man adapted to tho
performance of certain functions in
the emonomy of nature and society
and women adapted to the performance
of other functions.
One question to be determined in the
discussion of this subject is whether
the nature of woman is such that her
taking upon her the performance of the
functions implied in suffrage will leave
her in the possession and the exercise
of her highest powers, or will be an
abandonment of those powers and on
entering upon a field in which, be-
cause of her differences from man, she
is distinctly inferior.
have said that | thought suffrage
would be loss for women. l think 50
because suffrage implies not merely
the casting of the ballot the gentle AMI
peaceful fall of the snowflake, but
suffrage if it means anything, means
entering upon the field of political life,
and politics is modified war. In pol
itics there is struggle, strife. conten-
ton, bitterness, heart-burning, excite
ment, agitation, everything which is
adverse to the true character of wo-
man Woman rules to-day by the sweet
and noble influence of her character
Put woman into the arena of conflict
and she abandons these great weapons
which control the world, and she takes
into her hands weapons with which sha
is unfamiliar and which she is unable
to WELD.
The whole science of government is
the science of protecting life and lib
erty, and thepursuit of happiness, o.
protecting our person, our property,
our homes, our wives, and our children

Will Use RADIUM
RAYS AS A CURE
FOR RHEUMATISM
new Use TO Be PUT TO TEST
At Hospital Of Johns Hopkins
University

Baltimore, Md, Feb 26.-The Johns
Hopkins hospital in Baltimore has
purchased quantity of radium in En-
rope and within few weeks will es-
tablish new department for thu
treatment of diseases by the inhalation
of radium emanations. So far as IS
known, this will be the first use of ra-
dunn in this way in the United States.
Since the discovery of the mineral
about Is years ago by Professor and
Nine. Curie, of France, it has been
used in many surgical cases in Eu-
rope, and until few years ago its use
was confined to such cases and to Civ
ing what are called radium baths. Es-
pecially noteworthy were its effects in
the treatment of cancer, giving hope
that new and permanent means of
fighting the disease had been found
The use of radium in purely medical
cases is something comparatively new.
1t was discovered that the emanations
from radium were enormously benefi-
cial in treatment of chronic rheuma-
tism, facial paralysis, neuralgia and
diseases of the joints. Persons who
had suffered from these ailments for
years found their one relief to come
from the strange element, and gradu-
ally method of treatment has devel~
oped from that discovery.
By this method the emanations frora
radium are collected and held in solu-
ton in the air. A compartment called
an "emanatorium" is the cabinet il
which patients of the radium must be
placed to breathe in the confined air
laden with radium emanations. All
hour or more at time must be spent
in the emanatorium and the treatment
continues for. three weeks. a.
What The EmanatiOns Do.
The theory is that the radium rays,
which do not perish like light rays.
but are held in solution in the air, are
breathed into the lungs; there they
get into the blood, and thus are car
ried to every organ of the body. That
is what would happen if radium ema /.
nations are actual material substance,
which can saturate the atmosphere, a.
seems to be the case.
At all events, this treatment HIS
been practiced in Europe for two or
three years and has to its credit, it -
said, a number of cures. The sub
stance radium is yet too much of i
mystery for scientists to bank on what
it will do, or whether it can repea.
here what it has apparently been do
ing in Europe. The Johns Hopkins
warns people not to put too great
confidence in the new method until t
has had a thorough trial here. Gil
matte conditions differing from those
of Europe may affect the manifesto
tons of radium here.
One highly important feature in con-
nection with the Johns Hopkins I'M
dertaking is that the -radium treat
Elent will not be high priced. Ric1
and poor alike will have entrance II

ions for entrance.
Great Cost of Radium.

Great Cost of Radium.
This seems paradoxical when it IS
remembered that very small amount
of radium is worth a fortune. One
American physician has sent abroad
for small supply of it land is sail
to be paying $4,000 for what is con.
tanned in a very small vial, But this
high price is somewhat offset by the
fact that radium Is almost imperisha-
Bile. Giving off emanations reduces
the quantity by such an infinitesimal
amount that it is claimed the quantity
which Johns Hopkins brings over will
be doing service for 1000 years.
Another matter which may shortly
be Investigated in connection with ra-
dunn is the theory that its presence
in certain mineral waters is the cause
of their curative qualities 1t is said
that the government authorities win
appoint experts to make an investiga .
ton of the springs at Hot Springs,
Ark, to ascertain how much, if any,
radium is in the water Determine.
ton of this matter is considered high
ly important, for if it is discovered
that the reason for the curative quail
ties of the mineral waters is the pres
ehce of radium beneficial results may
be obtained by artificial means.
