The republican opposition was
completely swamped in the one day
special session of the Ohio legislature.
So absolutely unnecessary and arbi-
trary was the opposition that its own
weight defeated il. 1t proposed TO do
in another manner the very thing the
governor had called the legislators to-

BRYAN AND wOMAN's SUFFRAGE

Hating Mr.. Bryan is an old and well
established New York industry; but
our neighbor the Sun rather overdoes
1t when il grOwls that woman suf-
frage gets no real strength from the
adherence Of this veteran champion
of humbug."
Woman suffrage will be submitted
to the voters of Nebraska in NOvem-
Der and MI Bryan's open champion
ship of the measure Will be worth
many thousand votes. If equal suf-
frage carries Nebraska by reason of
Mr.. Bryan's support, we should say
that this is about as much real
strength" as any one man is likely to
contribute TO the cause.
Nor do we think that Mr. Bryans
sincerity in supporting equal suffrage
is open TO attack. Mr. Roosevelt went
to Chicago an opponent of equal suf-
frage and suddenly underwent the
most extraordinary Pauline CONVEX
sion known to American politics. Mr.
Bryan said nothing for or against
equal suffrage until the issue was
raised in his own state. Then he
came out in support of it. which is a
proper democratic procedure.
We take il for granted that he is
still strongly opposed to woman suf-
frage by constitutional amendment
and that he adheres to the histori-
cal principle of his party that suf-
frage is a state matter.
Moreover, il is ridiculous to say
that Mr. Bryan has decided 10 cham
piOn woman suffrage merely because
it is popular No American politician
of this generation has ever advocated
a greater number of unpopular m as
ures than Mr.. Bryan, or been more
obstinately willing to remain in a
monority. York World
