who are chiefly responsible for the
persecution of the woman. You can't
shift the responsibility for nagging
and harrassing the woman upon the
little creatures whom your ballots
have exalted-they are doing what
they think you like to see done and
what they expected you to applaud
when they tell you Of it.
They will tell you Of it next sum
mcr. They will begin at the campaign
meetings with tribute-to woman!
They always do. They will prate Of
South Carolinas "civalry' and speak
of "thc grandest state in the world"
Were the republican governor of
the Yankee" state Of Pennsylvania
to array the power of his common
wealth against one woman, whose
good name and professional skill he
dared not question, what would you
think Of the Pcnnsylvanians? Yet you
loudly boast OF your South Carolinas
respect for womanhood!
If the people Of South Carolina like
the kind OF government that they
have, it is the kind OF government
that they ought to have If they be-
lievc that an honest woman Of tho
plain people, working for her living
and doing the work Of an able and
accomplished physician, for the bcnc-
lit OF the most unfortunate class Of
people in the world, should be an
noycd, fouted and bullyraggcd be-
cause she does it. it is for them to
throw their hats in the air and cheer
to the echo the men who carry on
this warfare.
DO you voters enjoy what your
champions arc doing? DO you get
pleasure out Of it?
If this is the kind OF thing that
VIC stand for, at least let us have
sense enough not to talke about grand
old South Carolina" At least, let us
not yawp about "chivalry" and make
Of our state n braying ass before
mankind.
Let us rather face the cold and
common fact that in South Carolina

Can The Wrong BE Undoncl

In the eyes OF all intelligent South
Carolinians DR.. Saunders, the young
woman physician at the state Hospital
for the Insane has been vindicatcd by
the asylum investigation and those
who by insinnation and inucndo had
reflected upon her character have
been confoundcd, but there arc others
in South Carolina. An incident that
occurred in this city reflects the sad
fact.
The yindication Of DR.. Saudncrs was
under discussion. That the charges
brought against the young woman
were outrageous was the statement
made, when it was challenged and the
individual making the challenge re-
marked: you will have to show me
that the governor wasn't right"
The challenge naturally caused sur
priscd and the gentleman asked:
Haven't you read the newspapers?
yes, but don't believe these d.
newspapers"
There you are. Now, how Is the
wrong done DR.. Saunders to be undone

agrees that she is very efficient as n

This woman was tried once before.
1t was Star Chamber trial, or
worse. She was denied admission.
She had no attorney and mono to
plead her cause. She knew nothing
OF what some Of her fellow physi-
clans he'd against her. She had
done nothing except devote herself
TO her duty. The unfor-
tunatc inmates OF tho State Hospital
for the Insane proflted by her
efficiency and devotion. The thanks
she has received are slender and an
attack upon her value at the asylum.
Under ordinary circumstances the
people Of South Carolina would rise

Battle is joined. The state of South
Carolina, through its executive de-
partment, is at war. 1t is aggressive,
determined and relentless. Its enemy
must be destroyed. It's friends must
be protected. The state Of South
Carolina is at war with a woman.
The woman was country girl, a
plain farmers daughter. Ambitious,
Intelligent, eager and rcsolute, she
fought her way through medical
college, graduating with honors, and
entered the service OF her state, de-
voting herself whole-heartedly as a
physician to the states afflicted.
What is her reward? TO live and
work in "an atmosphere OF insinua-
ton" TO stand at bay and defend
her professional reputation and her
good name among women against
the state Of South Carolina
Who are the assailants OF this wo-
mans reputation Who are her de-
,ractOrs?
Their names and personalities are
'f no Importance or Significance. They
stand for and represent the state.
You. the citizens and voters Of
south Carolina, are making this war
IN the woman-you who uphold and
ndorso 1t with your ballots. You
Who want government to reward the
friends and to punish
is enemies, you who oppose govern
