Connecticut Suffrage News.

~ofufS~"@AA SA'ii oEC ANSWos
 Last week the Connecticut Woman Suffrage Association deputed the Press Secretary to go to Washington and re- port on the progress that has been made
 in regard to the amendment of the United States Constitution and the pros poets of legislation in this matter during the present session of Congress. The fact that no further legislative work can be done in Connecticut until 1915 tends to turn the attention of Connecticut suffragists to Congress and to the possi- bllity of the women of the United States being enfranchised by national action in 8 much shorter period of time than would suffice for the amendment of the State constitution.
 The change that has come over public opinion i'll and around Washington in regard to woman suffrage is striking in the extreme. Suffrage associations are spr1nging up everywhere, and the sub- ject of votes for women is constantly discussed and debated in every kiud of gathering. More remarkable still very many of the women who have been in different and who are not possessed with any deep convictions, are beginning to see that the suffragists are on the win ming side, and quietly hedging to enable them to veer round and pose as having always been advocates of the coming re. form.

THE DREAM OF LABOR.

Ours is not the cause of one
class, OF one sex, OF one tribe, of
one city, of one state, of one con-
tinent.
1t is the wish for a better world
where Man shall be Man, where
the beast man shall become sub
dued, where everything shall lead
to complete development, where
the good of each shall be bound up
in the good of all. where all shall
feel the sorrows of each and run
to his rescue.
A glimpse of the ideal takes us
into the Land of Promise, where
peace and plenty shall reign SUI
preme, where brothers shall no
longer battle among themselves,
but for one another, where the at
mosphere shall be laden with love
= the love that saves-where the
hate that kills shall be unknown,
where the heart and brain shall
work together to help make life
better and more complete, where
the fullness of life shall be for all
and where men and women shall
be as happy at their work as little
children at their play.
The mere glimpse into that land
makes life worth living. makes
work worth doing, makes dreams
worth dreaming, gives us hope and
faith-the faith we need in the la
Dor for our cause, the faith which
shall help us win.
