Certainly not. We are constantly
emphasizing the fact that the Nation
al association is absolutely non-par-
tisan. When Congress has passed
the amendment which we seek it will
have to be submitted to the several
States, and to antagonize Democrats
in Congress and then TO so into the

"Our attempts to secure womens
suffrage through the action OF Con
/ gress began in 1869. but il was not
until 1872 that the matter was taken
up In Washington at n regular part OF
our activities. We have had several
minority reports in our favor in the
House. first from the former Suffrage
Committee. and one az least from the
/ Judiciary Committee. In the Senate
the Suffrage Committee has made
/ FIVE favorable reports. but only one
vote has been taken on the subject
in the Senate, which went against US
"a to 16--the Washington wits Civ
ing our supporters the nickname Of
the sweet sixteen.
In deciding to keep up our efforts
to set favorable action by Congress
We have all history on our side, for
there has never been any class Of peo
pie in any country which has been
compelled to appeal directly to the
mass OF voters to get the right of SUI
frage. In other countries it is grant
ed by the Parliament; and here W,
labor under a peculiar disability if
we so directly to the voter, for We
must submit the question to a great
number of foreigners who are unfa-
miliar with the American spirit.
This reference to foreigners sug-
gests the amusing reflection that al
though the alleged ignorance OF wo-
men IS sometimes urged as reason
why we should not be allowed TO vote
yet when it is suggested that male i'm
migrants-prospective voters-should
submit TO a literacy test the proposal
raises a howl all over the country.
while we are still looking to Con
gress for the final act of justice. we
have every reason to be satisfied
with the progress we are making in
the several states. At the next ma
tional election women will vote in ten
States for President and for mem
bers OF Congress in nine, which gives
us a tremendous political power. This
year We have campaigns in seven
States where suffrage viii be voted
on at the fall elections, and we hope
to add three or four OF these to our
conquests."
in view of all this ] asked, do
you think that militancy has any
place in the United tSates as a part
of the suffrage movement"
"No place whatever!" exclaimed
Miss Shaw. 1T is un.American and
un-democratic.. Any attempt TO intro
duce here the militant methods of the
extreme branch of the suffragists in
England will be vigorously opposed
not only by the antisuffragists but by
the large majority of American sufTra
gists. We have in this country a very
small band of women inclined toward
militancy. and they for the most part
fell under the influence of Mrs. Pank
hurst and the English movement.
Nothing could be more harmful to
our cause here than militant tactics
even from the standpoint Of policy
You cant so to legislatures and com
mittees and ask for the vote with
club in your hand.
Whatever some of our younger
and more enthusiastic women may
think, experience has taught the old
er and more experienced OF us that
woman is never at so great disad-
vantage as when she employs force
to attain her ends. One of the under

women's suffrage movement is based

but after all | suggested, "thc
only man who votes in the United
States today by the sole authority OF
the Constitution is the negro; fof
every one else the conditions OF vo.-
ing are laid down by the States"
1T is true that the qualifications
/ for voting are determined by each
State" replied Miss Shaw, but our
position is not that OF persons seek
ing a new RICH. by the introduction
OF new qualifications The fact IL
that women are now constituuonally
entitled To vote. and that the partial
suffrage States-those in which men
only are allowed TO vote-are with
holding cur right from US.
1T is difficult TO understand how
any one who will take the trouble TO
lamillarize himself with the circum-
stances can fail to see that the wo-
man suffrage movement in this coun-
try is not an agitation TO secure a Vi
tai change in the principle of Ameri-
can citizenship, but to bring to life
an element OF it which has always
existed but which the practice OF
some States and the decisions o.
some courts have condemned TO in
activity.
THE Constitution prescribes a re
publican form of government, guaran-
tees equality before the law and
states with the utmost clearness that
all persons born or naturalized in the
United States and subject to the juri-
diction thereof are citizens OF the
United States and OF the state where
in they reside And further than this
the fourteenth amendment declares
that no State shall make or enforce
any law which shall abridge the priv
ileges or immunities of citizens OF
the United States. Not a word in
these guarantees about male and fe
male citizens as separate classes OF
citizens.
After the end of the civil war the
fifteenth amendment was carried. 1t
states that the right of citizens OF
the United States TO vote shall not
be denied or abridged on account OF
race, color or previous condition of
servitude. Now a slave is person
who is subjected TO the will of an
other, and women are so subjected
politically, and are therefore in
state of political servitude.
Nothing can better illustrate the
condition of mental obscurity in
which the question OF woman's suf-
frage is approached than two decis-
ions of the Supreme Court in one of
which it is declared that the mere
fact of negro being a citizen en-
titles him to vote, while in the other
it is held that although woman
may be a citizen she has no right 10
vote.
Il would. perhaps attach more inn
portance than do to the argument
that suffrage is entirely a matter for
the several States to decide II it were
not for the fact that the theory of
States rights is always vigorously in
vcked when a State wants to do
something which is contrary to the
general sentiment or interest of the
country at large, but which is con-
veniently buried when either the
Democrats or the Republicans in
State want to get something done by

THE BUSINESS
FARMERS CORNER
SPRING WORK IN THE RASPBERRY
PATCH
One of Our Most Delicious Fruits
j. b. NORMAN

]. B. NORMAN
The raspberry is the queen of all
small fruits. 1t is delicious both as a
| fresh fruit and in preserves, and for cul-
ture the raspberry is adapted to both
the garden or the truck farm. The
canes grow rapidly, the better varieties
produce heavily the second year, and a
patch with proper care win last for
about twelve to fifteen years.
Spring is the best time to set out
raspberry canes. II the canes are plant
ed in the fall alternate freezing and
thawing cause the rootlets to decay,
and the plants, unfortunately, readily
winter kill. Among the varieties on the
market the Cuthbert red raspberry is
still at the head of the list, and in the
gardens the canes should be planted
about three feet apart, in rows at least
three feet from each other. For farm
planting rows should be about six feet
distant and the plants set out about
four feet part, and, if possible, plant the
rows north and south, which permits the
sun to reach all of the fruit, and thus it
ripens better The rows should be culti-
waited once or twice in season. Dur
ing the summer, the most vigorous
shoots should be allowed to grow after
being placed carefully between two
wires which are stapled to posts placed
about twenty feet apart in the row. To
keep the wires firm during the winter
clamp them together with short pieces
of wire,
In November, when other garden or
farm work slackens, pay the raspberry
IL. Ia fy;,, al ha
canes. These should be burned to de-
stroy any lurking raspberry bores. Trim
back the live canes to about four feet.
This compels the plant, when growth
starts in the spring, to throw out num-
erous side branches and thus increase
their fruiting capacity. Then mulch the
rows with leaves, if they are abundant,
and weight them down with heavy
coating of coarse farm manure, good
compost or chicken manure. The de-
caying organic materials furnish humus
to the soil, and humus is necessary to
supply the plants with sufficient plant
food. The rain and soil moisture dis
solve the materials which plants need,
and when the raspberry plants take up
this moisture they grow rapidly and
bear profusely.
Raspberry canes bear about one year
only, but nature provides new supply
of young canes, so that a patch cared
for as above described will bear annual
ly and last many years, and since the
raspberry blossoms late it is practically
guaranteed against injury from frost,
For this reason raspberry crop is al
most certainty.

GraniteQuarry
and
Shop for Sale!

The undersigned offer for sale their
quarry, known as the Hardwick Granite
Company quarry, which consists OF 10
acres of quarry land located on public
highway one mile from railroad (down
hill all the way.
This quarry has been worked about 25
years and has produced the best monu-
mental stock quarried in this vicinity.
This granite, known as DARK BLUE
HARDWICK, is of handsome dark blue
shade. 1t receives and retains a brill
liant polish, shows lettering and tracing
plainly, and stands the test of our
northern climate without rust or discol-
Grafton, and we are prepared to back up
these statements by numerous monu-
ments which have been exposed for
twenty years and remain clean and
bright. After being thoroughly tested,
its fine working and wearing qualities
are universally conceded.
The quarry is equipped with good
derrick and hoist, blacksmith shop, and
the usual outfit of tools. On this 10
acre lot there is an undeveloped quarry
of light, firm granite, which makes good
hammered work.
We also offer for sale our cutting shop
in Hardwick village, directly opposite
the railroad station, and one of the best
locations in the town for manufacturing.
The lot is about IL rods wide on the
railroad and ~ rods back. The shop
will accommodate two or three gangs
of cutters, and there is room on the lot
for additional shops if desired. A good
derrick takes stone directly from the
shops and loads on cars.
The village of Hardwick furnishes
electric power for all manufacturers for
the low price of $50 per h. p.
To anyone wishing TO engage in the
monumental business in a live granite
town, we can offer superior inducements.
We should be glad to answer inquiries
