BY r. FREEMAN HARRISON

In regard to equal suffrage, we hear
that women have not the necessary
poiSe and interest to take part In po-
litical affairs. II that be true, Is 1t
not the result of the countless CEN
turtles during which women have had
practically no part In a mans world?
l believe that when women are given
a fair chance they will prove capable
In political affairs. Even with the
barriers of the past some women have
stood out prominent In State affairs.
Elizabeth, for example. Most his
torians agree that Anne Boleyn's
daughter rather held her own with
men.
Then we are told that equal suffrage
will destroy the home and the gentle
qualities of women. But II seems I'M
likely that voting once or twice a
year would do all that. The large
proportion of voters never hold Office,
and no women will be compelled to
serve, or even to vote, unless she so
desires. believe that woman would
be Just as womanly after thousand
years of suffrage--other conditions
being the same-as she is today.
Truly, the English mllitants have at
times gone to inexcusable extremes,
but we must always be careful to
distinguish o cause from certain OF
it's leaders.
In conclusion, It seems to me that
the granting of suffrage to women is
very reasonable and wise. They are
entitled to II, and I believe that they
are capable of using the ballot and
holding Office to the advancement OF
oir nation,

BY CHARLES P. INGALLS,,
Progressiye AssembIy CandIdate.


To tell all the reasons why I favor
woman suffrage would take great
deal of space Possibly it would be
better to name all the good reasons
against the propositions far easier
task
When / try to think of the real
reasons for opposing equal franchise
| am reminded of the frame of mind
of certain youth of my acquaint-
ance.
The lads sister wished to go to the
theatre, and needed the services or
her younger brother as escort. The
boy was reluctant, and a long argu-
ment ensued.
But tell me-" said the sister, why
you do not want to go. 1t is very
entertaining and quite instructive.
And besides, 1 cannot go unless you
will go with me-"
We'll" replied the boy, 81 never
have been to the theatre and / don't
like it,"
And that is as good a reason as
any 1 have ever heard against the
extension of the franchise to women.
We never have allowed them to vote,
and we don't like the idea. And be-
sides, If the men alone can so muss
UP society and, politics as they have
done, men and women could muss
them up twice as bad.
Seriously. though, l see no reason
why we should continue to deny 20
women a right which IL SO obviously
theirs, simply because our fathers did
SO. If men never knew more than
their fathers could teach them, what
would become of tho progress of the
worlG?
He that hath thinker to think
with, let him think.

BY T. w. HOFFMAN,,

The time has arrived when II Is
useless for men, and women also, TO
object to equal suffrage. After care
great political movement, I can safely
say that feel sure there Is not q
single reason today why women
should not vote. Lately all the ar
guments which I have either read or
heard against this great question were
absolutely groundless and could be
applied to men equally as we'll as to
women.
II men have the right of suffrage
why should not women have that
right also? Our American women
are equal mentally to our American
men; morally, I need not state, for
l firmly believe women are above
men. When given an opportunity
women have proven themselves Just
as efficient as men IN responsible po-
sitions.
Women today are co-workers with
men In the business world and for
that reason should have voice in the
framing OF laws which affect this
part of our society.
The old objection to equal suffrage
thot II viii tCuu 10 QtlnOTdllZ6 anu
break up the home Is too fiimsy a
one for any individual these days to
pay any attention to. Right here 1t
seems to me is the strongest argu-
ment for the cause.
The home Is conceded to be the
strongest link in the chain of our
civilization. and as woman plays an
equal part in making this institution,
she should help to frame the laws
necessary for the protection and
maintenance of it. The mother Is
the natural protector of the child and
for that reason she should have a
voice In framing such laws as are
necessary in safeguarding her in the
rearing Of her children to perfect
manhood and womanhood
In closing / would like to add a few
words from the pen of our beloved
and honored American statesman,
Abraham Lincoln: God bless my
mother! All am or hope to be
owe to her"

BY C. w. ENNIS,
of Morristown.

Because as wives and mothers
women should be entitled to the use
OF the ballot and thus help to solve
many of the problems relating to
home life.
Women in very large numbers are
property holders, both of personal
and realty, and should be given the
privilege OF the ballot and thus help
to solve the problems of taxation.
Now that women have entered in
our Industrial and commercial life
as wage earners they should be given
the ballot to help solve the labor
problem.
Woman suffrage should prevail for
the additional reason that women
are part of the social and economic
life of our nation and are as we'll
qualified as men to take upon them
selves the great and important social
and economic problems which must
be met and acted upon intelhgently.
Mr.. Ennis is leading lumber
dealer in Morristown, employing
many men. In the letter in which
he enclosed the above statement to
the member of the Women's Political
Union who asked for it. he wrote:
81 cannot help but be impressed
with the deep interest being taken
by members of every political party
in this question. l believe the time
Is not far distant when in every
state women will have the right OF
suffrage. Ed.

BY MRS. C. C. WARREN,

OF Princeton, former president OF New
Jersey Federation OF WOmen's Clubs.
You may quote me as saying / be-
lieve that women should by all means
have full suffrage rights. I was
believer In suffrage long before suf-
frage became a live issue. | paid
taxes for so many years before
came of age that I seemed to have
absorbed the ideas of suffrage for
women through that act and without
help from any believers in suffrage.
I am not sure but that inducing
women who do not believe in suffrage
to undertake civic work makes suf-
fragists of them quicker than argu-
ing suffrage with them. They find
when they undertake to put through
some good civic work that political
boss can undo all their efforts and
then they turn instinctively to sur
frage. They are driven to see by
their own needs that they cannot do
good, effective civic work without
the vote. No one then has to con-
vince them that they need the vote.
They want it for themselves. Women
who, If you had argued suffrage with
them, would have been strong "antis. .
Personally, 1 think suffrage is only
one phase of a broader life for
women, that suffrage will develop
women just as civic effort develops
the idea that suffrage should be
woman's right. Most of my friends
are ants, yet the very moment they
are opposed in some civic effort they
all turn out. When our town did not
want to build a new 100000 school
house the women got out and voted
1t through.
Good luck and swift results attend
all your efforts.

A woman without a voice OF vote
would make a good toy or a good

sion to a harem or to ranch xitchen,

full-sized man must have more to
commend her than docile obedience
and patient endurance of tact and
abuse. She must have opportunity to
think and to grow and must feel the
weight of conscious responsibility.
As DIR. Adler has so well said:
woman always has had influence;
what she needs now and what we all
need for her is that she should carry
the load OF responsibility for the in
fiuence she exerts."
But the real question is, why are
the women denied the right to vote
The burden of proof lies with the OPP
position, logically. Only 1t is not
question of logic ethics or politics,

OF Montclair.

Two great historic movements, the
growth Of democracy and the rise OF
woman, have gone steadily from sue
cess to success, decade after decade.
Both have reached a point where
their next logical and inevitable adj
vance demands the enfranchisement
OF women Woman by her ability,
and by the justice of her demands,
has won her way into industry and
business, education and the profess
sions, and now, fully as capable as
man. demands the ballot to protect
her new and larger interests The
ballot will be to woman, as 1t has
been to man, great education.
Modern hfe makes the home entirely
dependent on forces outside 1t, and
these can be controlled only by the
ballot AS government grows more
and more parental, and concerns IT.
self moro and more with broad hui
man interests, the feminine qualities
and points of view are as necessary
as the masculine. Taxation without
representation Is odious in every
form. Woman's direct influence Will
count strongly against war. and vice,
and social injustice. Where woman
has been enfranchised she has made
good.
Tho great ideas and ideals ex-
pressed in such words as republic"
democracy" social Justice" "the
people," "America"-imply necessa-
rily full sharing OF all political priv
! ileges and responsibilities with the
enlightened and public spirited moth
ers and wives and daughters and sis
ters our land is producing.

I favor equal suffrage because 1
believe in democracy; because gov
ernment by the people is more just,
more safe and more successful than
government by part Of the people.
L believe that the declaration of the
Creator that 1T is not good for man
to be alone" applies with equal force
and truth to the home, the COM
munity and the affairs of government.
l believe that the striking way In
which the Acknowledgement of women
of Idaho have helped that State to
surpass adjoining Montana in moral
and material prosperity and in every
desirable feature of civilization Is
conclusive evidence that our New
Jersey should enfranchise its women.
l believe that the fact that almost
all the nations of Europe governed
by men are engaged In awful destruc-
ton of lives and property and that
every European nation which women
help to rule are at peace-Norway,
sweden and Denmark, where women
vote. and Holland, with Wilhelmina
at its head-sufficlently proves the
worlds need for women's help toward
peace and righteousness.
