Two NATIONAL PROGRAMS.
-om fhe Woman's journal.

From the Woman's Journal.
The rapid growth OF the suffrage
movement is constantly giving rise 10
new societies and new methods. One
of the livesi of these recent develop
ments is The Congressional Union.
The union has lately announced its
intention Of organizing an auxiliary
in every Congressional district
throughout the United States. and
has begun the work. This will bring
home to the suffragists in every part
Of the country the practical question
whether they shall join the union or
not
There are at present two national
suffrage ORGANIZATIONS in the field, the
old National American Woman sur
frage association and the Congress
sion Uiion for Woman Suffrage. They
have 4 common object to secure the
, ballotfor women-and up to this time
many suffragists have 0een members
of b,th societies But the policies
and methods of the two have become
so widely divergent that people will
soor have 10 make their choice and
lineup with one or the other
10Th organizations are nOn-par-
of the word. The National Associa-
tim believes in opposing, irrespective
OF party, candidates who are opposed
t, equal suffrage The Union believes
il opposing the party in power at
Washington. no matter which party
hat may be, until it consents tc sub
init to the States the nationwide
amendment for woman suffrage; and
II seeks to bring pressure 20 bear
upon the dominant party by enlisting
the women Of the enfranchised States
to vote against that party's candi-
dates for Congress. without regard to
the attitude or record of the candi-
dates themselves upon the question.
Both the National Association and
the Congressional Union work for the
nationwide suffrage amendment IVA
riously called the Susan b. Anthony
amendment and the Bristow- Mondell
amendment But the union limits
itself to this one measure, while the
National Association works also for
two subsidiary measures-the Fed
eral sugrage bill and the Shafroth
amendment-wh which its Compression
Committee believes will help the ulti-
mate passage of the Bristow Mondell
amendment
The National Association lays
stress upon the importance of getting
more suffrage States as the surest
and most powerful means of bringing
increased pressure to bear upon Con
gress for the nation wide amendment
and also of securing its ratification
when submitted
The union believes that there are
already suffrage States enough to pu

HONORING MAGMA CHARrA.
June Is was the seven hundredth
anniversary of the signing of Magma

kept with appropriate ceremonies
The friends of equal rights for wom-

fellow suffragists. "That is our monu-
ment!"
! MAGMA Charta WAS only a first step
in the evolution of human freedom.
and that evolution is still going on.
The Boston Globe says:
Magma Chartas are being signed
every day of our lives. in private and
in public Trade unionism was one
of the Magma Chartas of the 18th
century: suffrage is Magma Charta
of woman in the Goth century. His

CRIES SOON BRING ASSISTANCE.
Assailant, Who Looked Like Italian,
Followed Society Woman Up a
Path Above Penobscot Bay.

made TO trace her unknown assailant,
who, it is feared, has succeeded in
making his escape across Penobscc
Bay to them ain land.
Mrs. Drexel was pushed deliberate
ly over a forty-foot bank. above the
rocky shore. She owes her life to the
fact that her clothing caught in the
branches OF a tree a short distance
from the top. The fabric was tough
and held the struggling woman until
her cries brought help to her and she
was hauled up to safety
Mrs Drexel, who has a summer home
near Ryder's Cove. was planning to go
on a yachting trip about the bay Sat
urday afternoon. While waiting for a
gig TO be sent ashore to take her on
board, she decided to stroll up a path
leading from her cottage to the Look
out House, an observatory overlooking
the Bay Islands. The path is narrow
and leads along the high bank, which
rises about the rocky shore.
Mrs. Drexel had reached the OBJ
servatory when she was impelled TO
turn around by what she says was the
uncanny feeling that she was being
followed. She was greatly alarmed al
seing a short, dark stranger, wearing
slouch hat and looking like an Ital.

path toward her.
There was no way of avoiding him,
and Mrs DreXel, after hesitating for
an instant, started back toward the
house. rs she passed the man, he
stepped aside. and turning quickly

her violently over the edge of the bank
She screamed and fell headlong, the
assailant taking to his heels.
Mrs. Drexel landed in a spruce tree

body swayed back and forth above the
rocks until her cries brought assist
