futility of the slave goddess sentiment
and the home and mother sentiment and

This means that conservative suffra-
gists, who will attack q woman in their
own ranks for leading q militant organ

ready to officially support and court the

at religion, insult our national honor,
and mock our morals and our civilization.
OF course, there Is reason" for all
of it.
In a statement In the Ledger on July
8, a suffragist said the total membership
of the suffrage organization throughout
the country is between 100000 and IoO,-
600. Now disregarding the fact that this
represents less than 3 per cert of the
women of voting age, we remember that
the Socialist party pollcd nearly million
votes in 1910 According to the official
announcements and parade insignia,
every Socialist il suffragist." In
other words, though q million Socialists
are suffragists. yet only three-fourths of
them have Joined the organization! or
course there are suffragists who are not
the great minority II all these official
suffrage figures are correct.
Is 1t any wonder then. that the national
association backs Eastman. and puts the
writings of this Socialist-feminist at the
head of its list Of what to read on

cially to Socialist suffragists'' who sup

Life recently said OF Eastman: 'Peo-
pie of average sense read a lot of
violent and foolish talk. and think Of IL
only as foolish talk. But presently some
one is shot by a crazy or half-crazy man.
and then the talk gets to seem more seri-

might profitably take notice Of this phe-
nomenon."
The suffraeettes, conservatives and rad
icals march in parades with the red ban
ners of Socialism following the yellow
badges of "votes for Women" and lend
the weight Of their national associations
approval to the utterances Of revolution
ary feminists.
Also, no one can forget that Mrs.
Pankhurst, the leader of British mill
tants, was feted and financed by Amer
ican suffragists here, who gloriied her
former crimes and cheerfully gave her

For months Alaskan readers have seen the constant expression of praise for Doan's Kidney Pills, and read about the good work they have done. What other remedy ever produced such convincing proof of merit?

I tried everything but got nothing, that would remove the trouble until Doan's Kidney Pills were recommended to me.
