A VISION OF War AND PEACE

The following extract from q
speech delivered to the veterans of
the Civil war at Indianapolis on
Sept. 81, 1876, by Col. Robert G.
Ingersoll brings wildly to mind the
horrors. suffering and of
a 1t is a picture indelibly en-
graved on the hearts of those who
lived through the dark days of
'61 to '65 the memory of which
should make every true patriot
plead for peace:
The past rises before me like a
dream. Again we are in the great
struggle for national life. We
hear the sounds of preparation
the music of boisterous drums-the
silver voice of heroic bugles. We
see thousands of assemblages. and
hear the appeals of orators. We
see the pale cheeks of women and
the flushed face Of men; and in
those assemhlages we see all the
dead whose dust we have covered
with flowers. We lose sight of
them no more. We are with them
when they enlist in the great army
of freedom. We see them part with
those they love. Some are walking
for the last time in quiet woody
places with rnaideDs they adore.
We hear the w%hisperings and the
sweet VOWS of eternal love as they
~lingeringly part-forever. Others are
bending over cradles, kissing babies
that are asleep. Some are receiving
the blessings of. old men. Some
r parting with mothers who hold
them ard press them to their hearts
again and again and say nothing.
Kisses and tesrs, tears and kisses
divine mingling of agony and love.
And some are talking with wives
and andeavoring with brave words
spoken in the old tones, to drive
from their heart the awful fear.
We see them part. We see the wife
standing in the door with the babe
in her arms standing in the SUM-
light sobbing. At the turn of the
road a hand waves-she answers by
holding high in her loving arms
the child. He is gone and forever.
We see them all as they march
Iroudly away under under the
fiunting flags, keeping time to the
grand wild music of war - march.
ing down the streets of the great
cities--through the towns and
across the prairies down to the
fields of glory, to do and to die for
the eternal right. We go with then
one and all. We are by their side
on the CORY t1elds-in all the
hospitals of pain-on all the weary
marches. We stand guard with
them in the wild storm and under
the quiet stars. We are with than
in ravines running with blood-ir
the burrows of old fields. We are
with them between contending hosts,
unable to move, wild with thirst,
the life eobiug slowly away among
the withered leaves. We see them
pierced by balls and torn with
shells, in the trenches, by forte,
and in the w%hirlwind of the charge,
where men become iron, with
nerve of steal.
We are with them in the prisons
of hatred and femme: but human
speech can never tell what they
endured.
We are at home when the news
Gomez that they ere dead. We see
the maiden in the shadow of her
first sorrow. We see the silvered
head of the old man bowed with
the last grief.

EQUAL FRANCHISE PROGRESS
The Suffragist's New Year.

The National Suffrage Association
is finding time not only to congratu-
late itself on the achievements of 1918
but also to make a prphecy and few
good resolutions for 1914 The first
resolution is to get the suffrage
amendment to the Constitution of the
United States passed by the Senate
as soon as Congress assemblies after
the holidays That done, the rest of
the session will be devoted to urging
the House to consider the bill favor
ably. Mrs. Medill Mccormick, of
Chicago, has just been elected chair
man of the Congressional Committee
of the National Association. The
headquarters of the Committee will be
in Washington, d. c., until the bill
passes Congress, but the Committee
does not think it will be necessary to
take long lease Meantime the Ma
tional Association and its Congress
sional Committee will forward in
every way the work of organizing all
the Congressional districts of the Uni
ted States in cooperation with the
State Suffrage Associations. The idea
of this work is of course to bring pres
sure when needed upon doubtful Con-
gressmen and to perfect an organiza-
ton which will see to the ratiflca-
ton of the amendment when it is sub
mitted to the States.
As to prophecy 1914 will see at
least four campaign States, and prob
abb seven new suffrage States. In Ne
vada, North and South Dakota and
Montana suffrage amendments,
which have already passed the legis-
lotive stages, will be submitted to the
voters in November. In Missouri, Ne
braska and Ohio signatures are now
being collected so that suffrage
amendments may be submitted by mi
tiative ptition. Meantime the suf-
frage amendments of the various
States all have their own particular
jobs to attend to and the National AS
ISOLATION will do its best to help in
every way it can.
