Objections to Women
Voting Centuries Old
Mrs. Norman de R. Whtehouse Asks Why Shouldn't
Women Vote and Points Out That Practically Same
Anti.Sufrage Arguments Have Been Used for Years
~ yiRA BOARMAN wHlTEnOUsE

=
W re all agree that women are
N/ better OF to-day than they
" have ever been since the be-
ginning of our civilization.
why then aren't we content? Unor-
tunately some of as are! But some Of
us have been content ever since the
days when We were denied souls. II II
had not been for the discontented ones
we should still be soulless as well as
voteless. When We wanted to gain
the privilege Of souls We were met with
certain objections: when We revolted
against the power Of life and death
which the Roman father or husband
held over us we were met with similar
opposition; when we wanted to be edu-
Gated in order to be better COM
panious for our husbands and also 10
enjoy life a little more for ourselves
the very same arguments met us face to
face, when we ventured to think we
should own and control our own prop
erty here they came again. our old op-
ponents. the objections to women's ad-
vance.
And now to-day. when We are asking
for the political equality which all men
in this country have. the very same age
old enemies are marshalled in force
against us. Some OF us take them
seriously and think they have some
thing to do with woman suffrage. but
II We look at them stripped OF their
modern garments we recognize them
as being merely the ancient opposers
of all our progress Here are some cA-
tracts from a debate in the English
House Of Commons in ls6s-they might
well be used to-day az anti-sufrasc
arguments:
This In a measure which IA caicu-
lated to destroy that good feeling which
| it is so desirable should exist between
husband and wife
"lt will add another element TO deter
youne men from entering into matri-
mony by introducing new seeds OF dis
cord
"A proposal such ~ that now made
would result. II passed into law. In
turning England into a teer garden
and every woman into a shrew.'
An honorable member. Mr.. Lopes,
moved the rejection Of this measure
saying: There are not 5 per cent Of
the married women OF England in favor

lessennc the respect Of men for
women with an increase OF independ-

wsl he an increase OF respect for

thousand times more valuable than the
, conventional politeness which II is al
ways so easy to pay"
Arthur Hobhouse. in writing some
what later on the same subject. said:
mo wonder II by all who are timid. by
all who are superstitious by the
majority OF those who obey senti-
ment rather than reason and by many
who possess a large share Of reason
and judgment. any alteration Of such
law is regarded according to the
character OF the mind with fear. with
horror. with disgust or with calm dis
approval"
