ever a group OF men have won their
political freedom they have not hesi-
tated TO reach out and help other groups
OF men win theirs. They have stood to-
gether for their mutual benefit and their
country's good. We now offer the vot-
Ing women Of the Westarn States the
opportunity to prove equally magnani-
nous with men who have extended their
assistance to their fellowmen.
In closing, permit me to suggest to
the women of this country the advisa-
bility OF forming themselves into a po-
htical body for the purpose referred to;

We may all work together In harmony

Of a campaign that will be waged until

This is 1.-The gist of the appeal which is
now being given in person by the many
campaigners of the Congressional Union
who are now in the field, and, every
day is bringing before the women Of
the West the necessity for concerted
Political action on Congress, for the pas
sage Of the Federal amendment granting
full suffrage to women of the United
States on equal terms with men.
Miss Durns' statement.
Miss Lucy Burns, vice chairman of the
Congressional Union for Woman Suf-
frage. who is in California campaigning
against the Democratic party, gives a
brief record OF the present Congress on
woman suffrage. From this record Con-
gressional Union campaigners will take
material for their work in the West
We all know that the Republican
party went out Of Office two years ago
amid a great popular outcry against the
autocratic methods that they had used

It will be OF interest TO know the word
J ing OF this appeal from the East to the
West on a matter of enfranchisement Of
| one-half the people of the United States.
Mrs. Oliver H. P. Belmont, Of New York
City. president OF the Political Equality
Association, and member Of the execu-
tive committee of the Congressional Union
for Woman Suffrage, wrote in stirring
words the following Appeal to the
! Women Voters" II, as an unenfran-
chised woman, residing in the State Of
New York, where, under the law, wom-
en- rank with minors, aliens, criminals,
and idiots, send this appeal to you, the
women of the West, living in an en-
franchised State and recognized in the
community as voting citizens, possess
ing equal rights with the men Of our
country.
AT a conference of eminent suffragists
from many States held at Marble House,
Newport, August % and 30. the Con-
gressional Union of Washington, D. c.,
working in behalf Of the Federal suffrage
amendment, passed a resolution, calling
upon the women voters OF the enfran-
chised States to use the power they DOS
sess in united effort to defeat every
Democratic candidate for the United
States Senate and House OF Representa-
tives until the Democratic government
recognizes the justice OF our demand and
facilitates the passage of the Bristow-
Mondell amendment for woman suffrage.

more grievance against the Democratic
party than the Republican party II is

er that uses such power to oppose
the enfranchisement Of the women OF

Women stand TtoEether.
AS from time immemoriaI, women have
stood together, shoulder to shoulder for
the bettterment of civic conditions, for
reforms that political corruption make
necessary, for the preservation Of human
life. for high religious standards, and
protection of the home, the uplift of
humanity; so we of the East are con-
fdent that the justice loving women OF
the West will cooperate in demanding
of our government the political en-
franchisement Of the women of the
United States. II is in the power of
women to free women. the most exalted
task the world has ever set and the

Forty Clubs Organized.

Although this law has been in effect
only four months. there have already
been organized in different parts OF the
country more than forty rife clubs.
These clubs all allied themselves with
the National Rifle Association of Ameri-
ca, which organization has been dele
gated by the Secretary Of War to carry
out the purposes of the new law. or
ganize the clubs. supervise the record
firing. and issue decorations to those who
make the qualifying score.
From the headquarters Of the National
Rife Association OF America, in the
Woodward Building, there is being issued
tons OF literature on the organization
of clubs the building OF ranges, and in
structiOn in target firing. 1t is hoped
that the initiating of this new movement
will result in the revival of the noble
sport OF rifle shooting in this country, a
sport which has almost became extinct
owing principally to the cost of cartridges
and the lack of ranges The most
serious problem 10 be overcome in the
proper promotion Of this movement so
that the government will get adequate
returns is the lack of ranges whereon
members of rife clubs can practice.
The United States is practically the
only great power in the world that has
not set aside large tracts Of land for
maneuvering. artillery and small arms

eminent owns only one range and that
is located in Wisconsin and for several
reasons it is not in commission. There
are small ranges located at or near most
OF the army posts. but such ranges are
only used at stated times Of the year
for the target practice OF the local
Sarrisons. Practically all the States
have State ranges for the use of the
National Guard, but these ranges are so
hedged about with restrictions and lack
Of funds that they are only in use during
practising.
