THE BALLOT A NUISANCE
An anti Holds That Woman Is En-
: titled to Escape Ii.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Woman suffrage wallows in
every known form OF sophistry, but
none seems to be put forth quite so
frequently and so shamelessly as that
voiced by Mrs. Blatch in her letter of
this morning. In it she reiterates for
the millionth time that women deserve
the ballot because, forsooth, they are
displaying heroism, endurance, organ
izing ability, etc, in war, and because
they "can suffer and bear" Good
heavensl Isn't there some sort of a
hammer which the gods might lend US
TO pound into the thick suifragist head
one plain, little, simple grain Of COM
mon sense!
Who denies that women are capable
of every virtue. Who doubts that they
are capable of "heroism, endurance.
organizing ability" Call of which
without the vote, and show how I'M
necessary that is 20 their develop
ment); who questions that they can
keep up a brave face and milk the COW
and lock the back door when the man
has gone TO the war, or that they are
his equal all round? But who that
csely because of her good qualities,
because of her heroism, because of her
capacity to suffer and bear, because of
her virtues and her services, precisely
because of these that she deserves to
be exempt from the ballot, precisely
because of her suffering and her bear
ing that she has earned the right to be
freed from its impoStions!
ri a
from that the ballot is a boon, a
privilege and an honor? From men.
Who started the notion that II confers
dignity and worth upon its proud pos
SCISSORS? Men did. Every woman in
ballot for what it is-a burden and a
nuisance. She sees that 10 confer It
upon both sexes, when one sex is quite
sufficient TO attend TO its duties, is
the height of stupidity and ineficiency.
Every woman who has found herself
knows that she has something far

who understands herself and the
worlds needs knows that her chief
business in the world is TO make men
who can do a mans work, and then 10
see 10 il that men do their work with
out her interference. That's what they
are there for.
The suffragist is a weak sister, too
weak TO stand by her guns and hold
man to his As for the male suffragist,
pulling and dwelling and bowling for
women to come and help him out of
his political dificulties-he ought to
be put TO bed with a bottle Of milk TO

petents. II there are any men left, let
them stand by US in this fight against
suffrage fury and folly.

Then when ye both retirn

You must lend a deafning car
Or otherwise something wonderful
You every Day will hear
For in separating Married People
Some scenes to take great delight
And although they may seem friendly
They will be the cause OF many a fight

From The Philadelphia frq4irer.

eminent as an offender because city
editor and a reporter refused 10 dis

information bearing on q customs
fraud case. A rule of the Treasury
Department forbids any employe from
giving out information. When The
Tribune published its news the gov
eminent went after it hot-foot to DIS

Naturally The Tribune refused 70
give such information, holding that y
was the business of the department 70

defence set up was that 10 reyesl NE
