 Sex qualification for suffrage may have it's apparent inconsistencies No general rule adjusts itself perfectly to all conditions It is a favorite ar gument advanced by the proponents Of woman's suffrage that many cultivated and noble women are far more capa- ble of intelligently exercising soy. ereignty than worthless negro. but the South never was anxious for negro suffrage. and while culture and refinement. and even morality, are desirable virtues, they are not the only qualifications for franchise.
 The primary, inherent and insep- arabic fitness for suffrage is support ing a family. The blow handle the forge and the struggle for bread af- ford experience necessary to properly mark the ballot. Government is a great big business and civilization from the very beginning assigned woman the home and man the busi- ness affairs of life
 There has been much freakish leg. islation enacted during the past de- cade that no doubt appeals to woman love for the ridiculous, but to under, take to unsex the human race by law is the height of legislative folly and a tragedy to mankind
 We are opposed to the equal rights of woman-we want her to ever re- main our superior We consider womans desire to seek mans level the yellow peril of Twentieth Century civilization
 Woman is the medium through which angels whisper their messages to mankind; it is her hand that plants thoughts in the intellectual vineyard: 1t Is through her heart that hope. love and sympathy overflow and bless man kind. Christ-the liberator of woman knd-was satisfied to teach the lessons of life and He was a man. He chose to rule over human hearts and re. fused worldly power and men followed after Him. women washed His feet, little children climbed upon His knees and the Ruler of the universe said that in Him He was we'll pleased. Can woman find a higher calling?"

morning, not Of the killing variety, but
enough so that it could be seen. The

in the form of dew. Yesterday the
frost was such that it could be seen up

of men working near the Third Ward

his statements verified he had num-
