WAR AND WOMAN SUFFRAGE
IL Women Had Ballot, It's Said, Wars
Would Cease.

To the Editcr of The Tribune.
Sir: War is the strongest argument
of all for woman suffrage. Woman is
the giver and conservator Of life. Man
throughout ali ages has been the de-
stroyer Of life through the ssvsgery
OF war.
There will be no more wars when
women throughout the world have the
ballot. All international questions will
then be settled by arbitration, and
r;ght--not might will be the ruling
power.
Men declare war without the sane
ton of or consideration for women.
War demolishes the home, reduces the
women and children TO abject poverty.
subjects them to all the horrors and
demoralizations of war and the agony
of doubt and sorrow in the loss OF
their male children.
Many misinformed minds have the
misconeeption that woman in wanting
the ballot has the intent TO eliminate
man from the earth. She wants the
ballot that she may protect man
against his impulses for war. She
wants the ballot as a means Of in
ducing arbitration. NJ. S.

THE PRICE OF COMFORT
Some Statistics Involving the Wearing
Of Light Clothes.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Your editorial Making the
Worst Of Heat Wave" is, to say the
least, timely. Coming from the South,
where wearing apparel is suited to eli
matte conditions, one naturally won
ders what is the matter with the peo-
pie. Why are lightweight and light
colors tabooed. For weeks the writer
has been asking these questions and
getting the answer that "white fannels
are worn only at the beach" ! have
noticed only two or three men with
courage enough to venture on the
streets in white trousers. Whether they
were Southern visitors, business men
or imagined themselves at some sum-
mer resort ! was too timid TO inquire,
but when ! went to the cleaners to
have my trousers cleaned and pressed
and he charged me. rs cents, with a
kind Of don't-care expression on his
face. | felt my query was answered. A
rapid mental calculation gives these
results: Allowing that a million men
inhabit the streets Of New York City
every day. it would cost $4,000, 900 to
provide them with white trousers OF
not extra quality and it would cost
s1.500,0 600 every week to keep them n
order
Is IT pride or dollars? Is il snob-
bishness or good business?

HINMAN THE CANDIDATE
Press Comment on Elk Sena
tors Published Statement.

Nobody can say that the Hon. Har-
vey d. Human, candidate for the NOM
ination for Governor on the Repub-
lican and Progressive tickets, is sail
ing under false colors or endeavorinc
to fool any man or party. At Platts-
burg the other day he delivered a
speech which leaves no doubt as to
what he stands for or what he will en-
deavor to accomplish if elected. The
speech was printed in this paper yes
terday morning, and it deserves care
full and thoughtful reading on the part
of those who desire to know about Mr..
Human and his candidacy. IL is q
plain, unequivocal stattment of his
attitude.-Utica Press.
Mr.. Human IS a candidate as q Re-
publican for the Republican nomina-
tion for Governor of the State of New
York. As Republican he represents
the purpose to eject the present adj
ministration. IF the voters of any
party choose to accept him as leader
in that really non-psrtisan, as 1t Is
most desirable, work, there is no rea-
son under the sun why Mr.. Human
should refuse their votes. But his eX-
plicit declaration, which could not be
made stronger, is that in return for
those votes he detracts not an iota
from his Republicanism nor adds the
most infinitesimal pledge TO his real,
genuine. transcendent obligation, which
he assumes with all the force of his
personality, to give the State Of New
York decent goyernment.-Troy Times.
Mr.. Hinman makes a declaration OF
independence which he had been pub
licly invited 20 make by friend and
foe; which many no doubt hardly eX-
pected he would make, and which some
secretly hoped he would not dare make.
The portent Of Mr.. Humans declara-
ton may be summed up in his own
words. as contained in the report or
his speech printed in this newspaper
last evening:
~ have not become and am not Tho:
candidate of Colonel Roosevelt, nor OF
any other man."
Mr.. Hinman appears irrevocably COM
mitted 10 Republicanism without any
eouivocation. Auburn Advertiser
Hinman is the only candidate for
Governor in the Republican primaries
who can unite the four anti-Tsmmany
groups. MIR. Whitman cannot do IT.
MIR. Hedges cannot do dillingham;
