THE
Bv Florence Richardson Usher

By Florence Richardson Usher
So often we suffragists re-
ceive in reply to our question,
are you interested in the We
man suffrage movement?' the
answer, NO., but | think it Is
coming" Why is it that peo-
pie who have never given sui
frage even a thought, at once
have that instructive feeling
that it is coming? 1t is because
suffrage is such an integral
part of democracy, SO INSOFAR
able from it, and is such a
logical next STEP in the
democratic working out of ma
tional and community develop
ment, that nearly everybody,
adherents and ants alike, feel
intuitively that the culmina-
ton of the movement is mere
ly a question of time.
The claim that suffrage is an
integral part of democracy is
based on the irrefutable argu-
ment of Jefferson and Jackson
that the whole community
should participate in the gov
erning, because the whole
community is governed. Never
was the reason advanced that
all men were thought wise
enough or capable enough to
rule the state, for if an under
standing of actual political con-
ditions was the test quired,
not more than one per cent of
the men could be permitted to
vote. Fitness is not now and
never. has been the test for
suffrage. American democrat
CIV is not based upon the as.
sumption that individuals are
wise or virtuous, but upon the
idea that two heads are bet
ter than one"-that the whole
is greater than any of it's parts
that the whole community is
wiser than a part of the COM
munity.
Inasmuch as women are full
ly one-half of the population,
and if all the men are wiser
than half the men, men and
women together must be wiser
than the men alone. The
whole history of the govern
ment of our country has been
an undeniable throwing off of
qualifications for voting where
ever they existed. The reason
for this is clear and one ex-
ample will suffice to prove it.
In early Colonial days. proper

ty and religious qualifications
were prevalent. No man
could vote who did not own a
certain amount of property and
who was not a member of the
particular church recognized
by that colony. In most cases
the electorate was a closed cor
poration, consisting mainly of
those few settlers who owned
stock in the company which
sent them over, and they
themselves decided who among
the others were qualified to
vote. The number of the elect
crate did not increase in pro-
portion to the increase of pOpu-
lation for the simple reason
that those in power were in
power as an organized minori-
tv, and so were afraid to let the
rest share in the franchise. well
knowing that if they did, theirs
would be a minority in very
truth.
The result was nearly always
the same. Those who were
not allowed to become free
holders left to form a settle
ment to suit themselves. At
ter a while the older colonies
woke up to the fact that the
new ones were growing much
that they were, and they were
forced in self defense gradually
to let down the bars.
The present can profit by the
experience of the past. 1t is
because women are one-half of
the community and are differ
e1It from men that we can look
to them to bring to our modern
governments the dissimilarity
of ideas which furnishes the
spur for the development of
governments and of their COM
ponent parts, men and women.
Suffrage then. is coming;' it
is more than coming-it is up
on US now, as all of us know
these large cohorts of workers
who are giving their time,
strength and money to the
speedy realization of the move
ment, and also those who SO
far have not been with us. The
ranks of the latter are weaken
ing fast and daily, and will
soon join hands with US in a
joyous but reverent welcome to
Votes for Women as that
vitalizing energy which society
literally cannot afford to lose
the lack of which is fatal to the
healthy existence of govern
ments based even partially on
democracy.

Radium q Poison.

Recent widespread discussion of the
healing powers Of radium has bred
such a plentiful crop of radium quacks
in England that the medical committee
Of the British Science guild urges i'm
mediate steps to protect the public.
Radium therapeutics is still In an ex-
perimental stage. Even in cancer the
value is prOblematical. and at least five
years clinical work will be required
before any safe general conclusions
can be drawn. The use Of radium by
unskilled and irresponsible persons is
dangerous and should not be permit
ted. No mud. water or drug advertised
as Misunderstanding should be used
without a dependable certificate as to
it's exact content Of radium. Frauds OF
this sort seem to be particularly am
pant. The medical committee adds to
the above warnings the suggestions
that radium he included in the phar-
macopoeia and thus automatically
standardized and also that It be de-
clared q poison under the food and
drugs act .

The steam locomotive has been un-

engineer because 1t is under the neces-

have argued that this weight was SO
