AGAINST SUFFRAGE
Attacks Mexico Woman's Article
on Woman and War"

Editor Message: | feel ex-
ceedingly interested in the arti-
Gle in the Message last week on
"Woman and War"
Our sister makes the state
ment that she is a suffragist be-
bause it stands for more good
causes than any other club or or
ganization she knows.
Now, ! am not inclined to be-
rate my sister, but, is it a fact
that the suffragist club is dear
er to her than the church, The
wisdom of the centuries teaches
us that our fancied better
ment" comes from the Church,
Home and School. Does Suffra-
gist stand for mere good causes
than the church, If so, why so
deported those eight delegates of
Suffragists when subjecting
President Wilson to a cross-ex-
animation, refusing to shake
hands with him, turning up
their noses" on several occa-
sions, while demanding action at
this session of Congress and then
blacklisting members of the Sen
ate and House, both Democrats
and Republicans, thereby reveal
ing their puerile political power
1t might have shortened our
good old grandmothers' days eff
they" had done such things.
The vicious vote is already the
greatest handicap to good .
government, and this vote will
be immensely increased by
woman suffrage.
The ignorant and the vicious
woman vote" can be swung ex-
actly as the same sort of "male
votes" is manipulated.
Again, she says then let the
women vote and we'll have no
war. Why is it that Colorado
has had woman suffrage q years,
the only state in the union that
has called for Federal aid in sup
pressing anarchy and revolt
twice in ten years, 1904-1914Y
Since the war in Europe the
world is now able to see two
things clearly. First, that the
necessity to defend the things
which all men hold dearest is as
modern as the latest invention
of the current year. Second, that
while the conditions of war have
changed the spirit of man him
self remains unchanged, still in
conquerable, still willing to dare,
that all that those things he
holds dear may survive, even
though he must perish; bleeding
and blooming These statements
are profoundly true. eff the
election does not show where the
fighting force lies it is useless
for the very reason that "the
spirit of man himself remains UNI
cOnquerable, willing to dare all,
that the thing he holds dear may
survive, even tho he perish. "
The disregard for law and the
inevitable danger of Civil War
and Anarchy is too high a price
to pay for any faniced "better-
ment of women"
We must deal with conditions.
There are certain forces which
cannot be disregarded. To com
bat them is ruin. Sister, if this
terrible war in Europe teaches
us nothing else let us hope that
it may bring home to us all re-
alization that the age of force is
not past (as the suffragist assert
ed), and let it, by a forcible OBJ
ject lesson, prevent us from turn
ing the Civilization of America
back toward disorder and anar-
chy at the sentimental demand
of a few short-sighted agitators.

INJUNCTION JUDGES HOLDOM AND BALDWIN
BACKED BY CORPORATION LAWYERS

DkANIAAA> L -A%N/ANA -
The corporation lawyers and mas
ters-in-chancery who act as board of
managers and run the. Chicago Bar
assn are pulling one trick after an
other to elect the sitting judges. All
the loop newspapers have played
their game to a finish for the noted
injunction judges, Baldwin and Hol-
dom, nailed by the Chicago Fedora
ton of Labor, as. the most viciously
unfair judges to labor of any in the
running. Here's. the latest trick:
A card mailed Friday to mem
bers of the assn asks them to throw
full power into the hands of the board
of managers to collect money and
spend money and ''use such means as
seem proper" to elect the candidates
endorsed by the assn. This is the
first time any board of managers has
had the nerve to go this far. 1t
means that every candidate who
didn't get in at the top of the vote
will have the full power of the board
of managers against him. Here's
how the board shapes up:
Three of the board of managers are
masters in chancery. They're ap-
pointed by judges on the bench. So,
of course, they are strong for the.
Judges now on the bench. They don't
bite the hand that feed 'em. These
masters in chaneery are Roswell D.
Mason, John S. Hummer and Richard
S. Folsom. These have held fat jobs
under sitting judges, Why shouldn't
they try to elect the sitting judges?
And why shouldn't they get the news
papers to print columns and columns
about how the Chicago Bar assn is
endorsing the two Jesses, E4oldom
and Baldwin, as well as others who
play the corporation game.
Others on the board are Silas H.
