1T is gold from the instant ii puts

A Mischievous Proposal.

Nothing could be inopportune and ll-advised
under these favorable circumstances than the attempt
of the present Congressional committee of the National
Suffrage Association to throw asd- this measure and
substitute the it has persuaded Senator Shafrnth
introduce. This provides that whenever per cert
of the legal the last general election any
State shall petition for the submission the voters
of the question of suffrage shall be submit
ted, and il majority i sha be deenrl
tabished anything in the constitution laws of such
State to the contrary notwithstanding"
In presenting this proposed national amendment
Mrs Mccormick and Mrs. Funk stated to the Judici-
ary Committee and the press that they represented
the $4,000 members OF the national association and
that it had the sanction of the official board. Neither
they the board possibly represent the associ-
alton in this matter involving the abandonment of the
object for which it founded in 1869 and for which
it has worked without deviation oryve years. until
delegates have in convention and authorized them
to do discussion of this tentative amendment
which appears to be unconstitutional and is certainly
undesirable must be deferred but the question which
should be put at to the members of the associ-
alton throughout the country is whether its basic policy
be thus arbitrarily changed without permission On
this point they should write oce Senator Charles

Defeat Of Amendment in Senate Neither
a Distinct Blow to Woman Suffrage
Nor the Indication Of Tremendous
Step Forward, Though Indicative Of
Breaking Down Of Sectional Antag-
onism to the Movement.
By IDA Hustled HARPER.

1t mistake for the papers to headline their ac-
ount of the defeat of the amendment in the Senate
ast week, "A Blow to Woman Sufragel" 1t simply
of the little love taps to which its advocates have
ong been accustomed and they will pick themselves up
and go to work again just they have been doing for
the last threescore years. None of them surprised
except of the recruits who had supposed
that the reason victory hadn't "t the suffrage BAN
ners long ago was because they hadn't been on the
spot with the right kind of bait to her down The
vote was taken March Ie On the 9TH Mrs. Medil Nc
cermick chairman of the national associations pres
ent committee for Congressional work, said in the
press: "Our fight is practically After week of
debate in the Senate victory in the United States
plain day. 1t has been simply glorious.
Our work in Washington this winter has advanced the
cause of suffrage by leaps and bounds" On the 18TH,
two days before the vote taken, Mrs. Mccormick
said through the press: I'VE have obtained tremen
dous victory in having long discussion the floor
of the Senate The fruits of the victory" consisted
in lodging of the vote by nearly ne-third of the Sen
ators and from those who voted IS ayes "a noes two

The next day Mrs Mccormick still optimistic,
issued her bulletin: "The National Suffrage Associa-

'PREPRINT,' NEW BABY
OF MOTHER TONGUE
To Make Formal Bow at Convention
of American Library AS
snciafinn

"Preprint' is one of the latest words
to be added to the English language. 1t
was coined by the publishing board of the
American Library Association, and it will
make its formal bow to the public at the
forthcoming annual conference of the
association to be held in Washington
May $50. Like many another new word,
"preprint' owes its origin to the drive of
necessity.
Not verySlong ago the American Library
Associations board undertook the prep
aration of a manual of library economy.
and that this work might be complete in
every detail the task Of preparation of
different chapters was assigned to the
best known authorities in the country on
the given subjects. Each subject was
to become one chapter in the hook. and
II was after the YORK had been in prog
ress for some time that 'preprint'' came
into existence.
The chapters have been printed in
leafiet form as they were finished by
their authors and they were issued as
'preprints' of The manual.
Altogether nineteen Of the total OF
thirty-two chapters have been issued in
''preprint' form.

tory of the country" For the sake of history let
examine this statement The report not presented
as Unanimous" but merely as favorable majority
report" The first year suffrage committee
was appointed in the Senate-I882-it made favorable
majority report. The thing happened in 1884,
1886 1890 and 1892, there nothing record
breaking in the favorable report of 1913. Some OF
these reports masterpieces of argument The rea-
they stopped with 1892 because at that time
Miss Susan B. Anthony ceased remaining in Washing
until she obtained this report Left to themselves,
with Suffrage lobby harassing them, the committee
ignored the question and made report OF any kind

Congress had the national association kept competent
workers here in Washington, but each time after a
very able hearing" had been conducted everybody
went home and that the end of it. Last year it
appointed Miss Alice Paul and other members of
committee, who organized the big parade of March
and several Others arranged hearings and made the
question for the first time public issue in the Ma
tional Capital Even without this stimulus, however,
the Senate committee would doubtless have given
favorable report it was composed principally of
avowed suffragists.

as soon as possible is easily understood.
1t is an acknowledged fact that the Sen
ators, remembering several past summer
sessions, are determined to hurry things
up so they may adjourn before hot
weather. The decks have been cleared
for action on the trust question which
must be considered, and the possibility
of a crisis in Mexican affairs is ripe,
while much time will be consumed on
the repeal of the Panama Canal tolls.
The suffrage resolution was introduced
last June. and il was at the zenith of
its strength. when, after nine days Of
consideration in the Senate, most Of IL /!
Senators favorable to its passage had
spoken on its behalf
Tells of Consequence.
Further postponement would have, re-
suited in one of two things. The chances
are it would have not come up again this
session as there would have been con-
siderable pressure brought to bear to hold
II over. Or il IL did come up ii would
have made its appearance when the SEN
ate was in the throes of the struggle
with the trusts. The relative Importance
which Congress places on trust mat
ters. and on the suffrage question needs
no word The proposed extension Of
franchise would have received summary
treatment.
With one exception every man in the
Senate, friendly to suffrage, urged the
taking of vote as soon as possible. Mrs.
Harper insinuated that in this the wom-
er were 'bouncoed." 1t is a peculiar
reason or a peculiar reasoner who reach
es such a conclusion because the COM
mittee acted on the advice of the men
who have proved their friendship to the
measure.
1t would be interesting to know IL Mrs.
Harper believes that a delay would have
recruited new converts Does she sup
pose that Mr.. Lodge or Mr.. Root would
have experienced a swift revulsion of
feeling at the sight of any parade?
States Rights an Issue.
On the question of suffrage. the Senate
is divided into three classes. the sup
porters who are in the majority, but
do not have the necessary two-thirds to
pass an amendment to the Constitution:
considerable number who favor suf-
frage but are opposed to the resolution
which was pending because it infringed
upon States rights: and then. a minority
opposed to woman suffrage on principle.
The National Congressional Committee
would like to know what miracle Mrs.
Harper or the Congressional Union pro-
posed to perform that would cause the
Southern Democrats and their support
ers to abjure States rights in favor
of a suffrage amendment.
Plainly. to defer the vote at the in
stigation of the enemies Of the measure
and to the doubtful advantage Of a pa
rade, would have been absolute folly.
1t would have meant that the tactical
