DENMARKs PROGRESSIVE WOMEN

England and Denmark are similar in
form Of government, but somewhat dis
similar on woman suffrage. Some
months ago a bill to submit that ques-
ton to popular vote passed the Danish
house Of commons by 1902 in favor and
only 6 against. But its conservative
enemies in the house of lords resorted
to obstructive tactics to prevent until
finally King Christian, who believes in
woman's equality with man, became
Disguised and "dissolved" that body
and ordered new one elected. The
election has just taken place and it
was a great victory for woman suf-
frage and progressive ideas generally.
The old barnacles on the ship of state
were buried in oblivion. The men of
Denmark seem to think that nothing
is too good for their women. Ill.,.

many women won't vote, I will say
that this argument applies to men as
we'll. It takes constant urging to
make men cross the street to cast a
ballot. Even if women won't always
vote, they will vote on vital issues.
What harm if women should let the
men do the voting on minor questions !?
They will form a band of 'reservists'
on which we can depend. Then when
a great issue is involved we can call
the reservists out.
Politics will be better, not worse,
for the entry of women. If they don't
get the ballot tomorrow, they will

the evening was the applause given
P. M Whitehead, candidate for state

vigorously than either Governor

Incidently, I must observe that if I
fanny of this war, I should mention not
the destruction of Louvain nor the
battering of the Rheims cathedral, but
the attitude of European governments
in urging men to wed as a matter Of
patriotic duty before setting forth to
join their armies. This is done in the
interest Of a high birth rate by gov
ernments which are wholly Indifferent
to the highest death rate. I cannot
conceive of any more awful insult that
could be offered to womanhood than
to invite women nominally to wed,
but actually to permit themselves to
be converted into breeding machines.
To ask a man and woman to wed i'm
mediately before the man goes forth
to war is to invite the birth of father
less children and the making of moth
ers widowed before their children's
birth.
There are sacrifices which the world
may ask of women,-and women have
a genius for sacrificing themselves.
But this is not to ask a sacrifice of
woman. This is to ask her to immo-
late her body and to sink the highest
and hottest instincts of womanhood at
the bidding of ruthless war
One Of the great gains that is to
come out of this war will be the end

Bryan In
Big Finale
AT Lincoln

When Secretary w. j. Bryan touch
ed upon equal suffrage the night be-
fore election in his speech at Lincoln,
Neb., the big audience cheered him
even more enthusiastically than when
he referred to the political campaign
in the state. It was the concluding
address of Mr.. Bryan's speaking tour
through the west.
II have held no mass meeting of my
friends to find what ought to think In
regard to the suffrage amendment"
said the secretary of state. IT have
made up my mind and if just one vote
is cast for suffrage tomorrow you will
know that that is my vote.
"For one reason, I had mother.
This reason ought to appeal to all
men. For another reason I have a
wife. This reason ought to appeal
to most men.
I'VE have been married for thirty
years. Mrs. Bryan took me when I
was young and she took great chances
Having seen her tried by every con-
ceivable situation l shall ask nothing
from t he government that I would
mot ask for her.
"The mother argument appeals to
me deeply. When people who set
snares and lay traps for the boys
whom mother has risked all and
sacrificed all to make worthy men,
have the ballot. God forbid that /
should tie the mothers hands by re-
fusing her the right to vote.
AFTER years of study of the essen
tails of good voting I have decided
that two things are essential to make
a person vote we'll. They are intelli-
gence and morality. I discovered
few days ago that there are 354 men
and 5 women in our state penitentiary.
have noticed that women outnumber
the men in the churches. If women
have sence enough to keep out of the
penitentiary and morals enough to 20
to church it follows that they will
make good voters.
"Bad people vote as a unit Good
people divide in their voting. In every
community where suffrage is an issue
every man who is living by crime and
vice is against woman suffrage. These

pie all know that woman is their

Votes Will
Stop War
Hereafter

The Woman's Journal has asked a
whether they believe that wars would
&c less frequent if women had votes,
and they have replied. Others have
expressed their opinions unsolicited
Among those who believe that equal
suffrage would tend to peace are Jane
Adams, Mary Johnston, DR.. Stephen
S. Wise, Mrs. Desha Breckenridge, Lii
liam D. Valid, Iona Gale and Dr. Chas
Fleisher
Mary Johnson says yes:
Question: Do you think there
would be fewer wars if women could
vote?
Answer: Yes
Question: Why?
Answer: I think that war, as war,
has still a fascination for most men,
do not think that the mass of wo-
men are subject to this illusion There
fore their weight in public affairs
tell against war;
Huge ornaments, so far from pre-
venting, provoke war. I think that
women would be less apt than men to
vote public moneys into dreadnoughts
and standing armies, or to keep in
office public servants who are known
to be belligerent.
With all it's mistakes, the mother sex
does not like to see it's offspring kill
ed Or wounded or maimed-nor left
In bitterness and poverty-nor quarrel
some with others. There are excep-
lions, Of course, but the great ma
iority of women are humane. When
women understand that war can be
warred against with ballots, the mass
OF their ballots will go, I think, into
that side of the balance marked peace.
Dr.. Stephen S. Wise says:
Do I believe that woman suffrage
would render wars less frequent? No,
believe that woman suffrage,-that
is to say, woman's entire participation
in the affairs of government,-would
not only render wars less frequent,
but make war impossible. Wars will
cease to be waged when women shall
= have part and voice in the direction
of the affairs of government. To me,
nothing in all this world-welter that
horrifes lis anew from day to day is
more terrible than the thought that no
woman on earth has been asked
whether this war should be. Women
bear the last and most terrible cost of
war. It is the women WHO must go
down into hell Of agony in order to
give children to life, and their chill
dren are asked for war and compelled

He should not be deprived Of his

man, during the period before
which he can prove up an his

which has a distinct monetary
value, and expends certain sums

having been done upon an i'm

right or interest in the land, and,
in case of dispute, it should be

A number of bills giving the
settler this right have been in
troduced in both senate and
house. The strongest opposition
always comes from the interior
department, which holds that the
settler acquires no property
rights until he can show full
compliance with the laws and
regulations. Of course, the en-
actment of such legislation
would deprive the interior de-
partment Of the greater portion
Of it's present occupation, and
