The Logic ~ Of the Antis.

1.-The Remonstrance," an anti-suf-
frage paper published in Boston, is I'M
fortunate in the selections it makes
for demonstration of it's logic ca. 1t
chooses the following from the st.
Paul dispatch:
Miss Minnie Bronson, in her address
hefore the women at the Church ciun
Thursday afternoon. put her finger
suuarely on the weak spot in the armoI
OF the suffragists, when she observed
that the majority of women did not want
the vote. She went on to say that the
american men stood ready to grant
women the right, any time the latter
demonstrated their desire for it, but that
90 per cent. of the women did not care
for the ballot.
This may have been putting it a bit
strong, but Miss Bronson offered a
definite and we believe fair challenge
to the pros when she said that the ants
frage If through referendum 1t could
be proved that a majority of women were
In favor Of the ballot. A referendum
vote among the women of Minnesota on
this moot subject would have most
salutary effect in clearing up the atmos-
phere, not only for the women them
selves, but among the men and particu-
larly the members of the Legislature.
We have no doubt at all that opposition
would melt instantly If a fair referendum
revealed a desire among majority OF
the women for the suffrage. But as long
as the conviction prevails in the minds
Of the men that their better halves do
not want th4ballot. there will be infinite

fiict their own prejudicss upon the peo-
pie. The same prejudices in less pro-
gressive days far gone had provided
against such growth of mind and ad-
vancement Of womanhood, by making
1t possible for the few to overrule the
many and stand in the way Of pro-
gress. Hence. instead of the whole
people Of Maine giving the subject full
discussion in public and in the homes,
reading the news Of the suffrage cause.
and the oft-refuted claims of the ants.
and then passing upon it at the polls
as other great questions are settled, a
few men in the Legislature took it up
on themselves to speak for the State.
They are the type of the ants who
trust to bald declarations that black
is white because they say so. But
every one Of these disciples of person
al bigotry or of political power OPP
posed to decency, is listed and will be
remembered by the people. Every man
Of them should be promptly defeated
as a misrepresentation If he ever Of
fers himself for political preference
again.
Massachusetts was more progressive
than Maine, and her voters may reach
convictions for or against a change in
the constitution. No doubt the ants
will use their best efforts against the
proposed amendment. as they have a
right to DO. FOR they seem to be well
supplied with the munitions Of war
Mayhap they can convince the women
Of Massachusetts, that they do not want
to vote, and in turn the women will
persuade their"men folks" that they
must vote against the amendment
