Proof Of the Pudding


In war questions are settled by the
strongest armies. In peace they are
settled by the weight of evidence.
The weight of the evidence from
practical experience is overwhelm-
ingly in favor of equal suffrage.
Look at the suffrage map" of the
United States. The nine States
which have given full suffrage to
women lie side by side, all bordering
upon one another. If equal suffrage
had worked badly in one State If it
broke up homes and made husbands
unhappy, the men CT the next State
would know it, and we should not
find suffrage spreading from one adj
joining State to another.
II is forty five years since women
out West began to vote During all
that time anti-suffragists here in the
East have been diligently gathering
all the adverse testimony they could
find. In all the nine suffrage States
put together they have not found a
dozen respectable men who will say,
over their own names and addresses,
that II has had any bad result.
All the governors of the suffrage

Strong for Suffrage
Cause in New Jersey

Short Hills organized its branch of
the Women's Political Union in May,
1918, with Mrs. Stewart Hartshorn
as president, Miss Mary Campbell as
vice-president, and Mrs Michael
'Shaughnessy as secretary and treas
urer. Almost from the beginning the
branch has contributed $25 month
toward the State campaign; one mem
Der contributes SIS a month and an
other So, making $45 a month paid
by this branch.
The branch has had such speakers
as Rabbi Wise and Senator Helen
Ring Robinson and has secured the
names of many prominent men on
suffrage petitions. 1t organized the
branch in Millburn, now among the
most fourishing in the State. Ii also
assisted the Summit Equal Suffrage
League in running a tea room in
Summit.
The president, Mrs. Hartshorn, con-
tributed the use of her automobile
in the State automobile hike in June,
and Mrs. O'Shaughnessy and Mrs.
Harold Wright Hack were two Of
the most valuable members of the
hike.

Suffragist Exhibit at
Industrial Show in ArmOry

Suffragists are attracting q great
deal of attention at the Newark In
dustrial Exposition, now being held
in the armory. The Women's Po-
litical Union of New Jersey has a
booth there, which is decorated with
purple, green and white bunting, and
at which literature. pennants and
buttons are being sold. Members OF
the union wearing the colored regalia
are explaining the suffrage movement
to visitors and are converting many
men. Petitions on which men pledge
themselves to favor woman suffrage
when the vote goes before the people
are being signed by many. Today the
members of the Millburn branch are
taking charge. Mrs Marion f.
Strickler Is the president and has as
her assistants several members of the
branch. Tomorrow the Westfield
branch will take charge, with Mrs
r T.. Sturgis, the president, to make
speeches. Other branches to assist
during the exposition are: Orange
branch, DR.. Mary l. Billet, president;
Bergen County branch, Mrs. III. B.
Bartlett, president; Nutley branch,
Mrs. Richard 7. l.. Newton, presi-
dent; Roselle branch, Miss Mary |.
milford, president; Clifton branch,
Mrs. Joseph Stiner, president; Ridge
wood branch, Mrs. Carl Vail, presi-
dent.
Newark members of the union,
headed by Mrs A. Van Wrinkle, are
taking charge of the booth during the
evenings.

States testify that it is a success. So
do the leading men in all the po-
litical parties OF those States. Our
anti-suffragists here say that they
only do 1t to please their constituents,
but this implies that they think most
of their constituents favor it. Saul
is either among the prophets or
among the profits"
The testimony Is just as strong
from men who are not in politics.
Four years ago Julia Ward Howe adj
dressed circular letter to all the
ministers of four leading denomina-
lions in the four oldest suffrage
States, and also to all the editors.
She asked whether the practical re-
suits of equal suffrage were good or
bad. She got 624 replies. OF these GO
were unfavorahle, 46 on the fence
and SIC were favorable. The answers
from the Episcopal clergymen were in
favor more than two to one; from
the Baptist ministers. z to /; from
the Congregationalists, 8 to l. and
from the Presbyterians more than II
TO l. The editors were in favor more
than to l. These figures speak for
themselves.

The New Freedom -

1t has often occurred to those work
ing for the enfranchisement of wom-
en- that our opponents are not aware
of the fact that we are doing nothing
today, as it was done ten, twenty OF
thirty years ago; we are really and
actively facing a new organization OF
society. Our economic conditions have
undergone an absolute change and
with this change has come new and
necessary social transformation. 1t
, is because of these changes and this
/ progress that woman suffrage is
everywhere discussed today and
recognized by modern thinkers as a
necessity if women are to effectively
and eXpediently cooperate with men
in solving our mutual problems.
The old Interpretation of 'woman's
sphere" does not fit the new activities
of women, does not afford a liberal
and fair chance for her to assist In
the new organization of our State or
national life. We must realize, If we
are in truth of this age, that the in
dividuality of women must be foster
ed and given expression in the affairs
of government as well as that of men.
We cannot afford to submerge half
Of society longer from expression.
One hears so much on every hand
about the dangers of great corpora
tions suppressing and controlling bus
mess interests Right here | am GO
ing to quote what our President says
IN reference to this situation in his
book, 1.-THE New Freedom"
You know what happens when you
are the servant of a corporation. You
have in no instance access to the men
who are really determining the policy
of the corporation. If the corporation
is doing the things that it ought not
to do, you really have no voice in the
matter and must obey the orders, and
you have oftentlmes with deep morti-
fication to cooperate in the doings
of these things which you know are
against the public interest. Your in
dividua]ity is swallowed up in the in
dividuality of a great organization. !"
Nowhere can be found a better
argument for the political freedom
cf women than this.
Men have formed a great political
corporation-a government trust.
We women are composed to assist in
bearing the burdens of this great
vital business, but we occupy the po-
sition of underlings. We cannot de-
termine the laws under which we
live nor the policies of the officials
We have no voice in the matter of
government, hut we must "obey
orders" It is also notifying to us
to realize that we are called upon to
cooperate and help further the well
fare of humanity, to see things done
at times against the public interest
and against our protest and desires,
because we have only our ineffective,
unrecognized, indirect political influ-
ence. This archaic method, which,
we are told, is all sufficient for
women, finds itself swallowed up and
lost sight of in the handling Of issues
which men can directly administer
and control. The ballot gives men
this protective force of expression,
and women today need the same dig
nified and effective instrument AS
fellow toilers there is human rela-
tionship which makes us one; conse-
quently both men and women re-
quire the same fair play and power

WOmen's Political Union
Would Enroll Members
in Public Speaking Class

Miss JENNIE Morrow Long, of New
York. is one Of the ablest instructors
in public speaking in the country and
she has conducted many classes for
the suffragists in New York and else
where. She has had remarkable sue
cess in training suffrage speakers
One of the most salient needs of the
New Jersey suffrage campaign is
more local speakers.
The Women's Political Union has
engaged Miss Long for ten lessons.
The first of these will be given on
the afternoon of October at the
State conference at the Young Wom-
ems Christian Association, to which
all are welcome. The remaining nine
will be given on the following nine
evenings, skipping Saturday and sun

Butler Branch

The Butler and Bloomingdale
branch Of the Womens Political
Union, though but a year old, has
proven to be rather lively organi-
zation. Its initial step was taken on
old home day last September. when
we Joined with the other societies
and organizations of the twin towns
in a parade The float. when women
voted in New jersey in the parade.
the members represented the suffrage
States of the union and won the
blue ribbon, which is priced very
highly. Some weeks ago a rummage
sale was held, the proceeds of which
amounted to 1888. The membership
continues to grow, showing a general
interest. The fall work includes
series of socials at the different
homes thinking thus to come in close
touch with the people, and still
further increase the interest

New Jersey in National Movement

New Jersey has contributed some
brilliant figures to the national suf-
frage movement. Alice Stone Black
well, the famous editor of the Wom-
ans Journal, who contributes an arti-
Gle to this paper, was born in Or
ange. Her mother, Lucy Stone,
founded the. first suffrage organiza-
ton in New Jersey in 1867 and it
was Alice's cradle which the tax col
lectors took, along with other house
hold goods, to sell, when Lucy re-
fused to pay her taxes and wrote her
historic manifesto on taxation with
out representation" to the Orange au-
thorities.
Miss Blackwell's aunt, Rev. An
toinette Brown Blackwell, was the
first American woman to become a
regularly accredited minister of the
Gospel. She still lives at Elizabeth
last of the actual pioneers of the suf-
frage movement. In the last suffrage
edition of The Star, published October
90 1872 Mrs. Blackwell wrote: For
longer than the Israelites wandered
in desert and wilderness in search of
the promised land / have paid I'M
represented taxes in the State of New
Jersey"
pnished than Lucy Stone and DR..
blackwell, lived for years at Tenafiy,
in Bergen county. This was the late
Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and Harriet
stanton Batch, her daughter, presi-
dent of the Women's Political Union
of New York, and considered by many
the most astute suffrage campaigner
in America, spent her girlhood in that
Town. They tell a story of Harriet
over in Bergen county. They say that
one morning Mrs. Stanton got Har-
ref off to a boarding school thirty
miles away. That evening she went
out for a drive with one of Harriet's
older brothers. and in the course of it
remarked, "Well, it's a relief to feel
that the work of getting Harriet off is
done. and she is settled at last"
At the moment the words left her
Inns they beheld far down the road
a small. tired, dropping figure. 1t
was Harriet She had not liked the
school and had footed 1t home. The
qualities involved in that thirty
mile trip are apparent in Mrs.
Blatch's work today.

tributed Alice Paul to the national
and International suffrage movement.
Miss Paul comes of the old Quaker
stock that settled all that part of the
State, and says "thee' to half the in
habitants of that section. While at
school in England she became a
member of the militant movement,
and went to prison for her princi-
pies; just as her Quaker ancestors
did for theirs. Returning to America
she organized and became the presi-
dent of the Congressional Union, in
some ways the most remarkable
suffrage organization in the country.
1t is the Congressional Union which
has made votes for women one of
the Invest questions of the day at
washington for the last two years.
1t is thorn in the side Of President,
senators and congressman. IF there
Is anything the average congress-
man does not want to do at this time
1t is to declare himself on suffrage;
and that is just what the Congress
sional Union has been forcing him
to do again and again during the
past two years. --..A.---..---..

To Make WOman's Place the
Home, First Get the Home

Professor Edward Ross, of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin. has just col
lected some figures regarding the en-
ployment of women.
He estimates that 100000 women
in this country are now working for
wages, and that so per cent. of the
single women in cities between the
ages of fifteen and twenty-five are
engaged in occupations outside their
homes. and that in the country one
third of the women are so employed
1t is now up to those who are so
fond of declaring that woman's place
is in the home to provide home for
these 100000 women who are out
earning one, among them the 10000
women who are working in the fac
tories Of NeW Jersey .-.--.
