Mrs. Byron Stevens of Brunswick, in
speaking in opposition to suffrage, dis
cussed the value Of mothers Infiu-
ence in the home and declared that the
suffrage propaganda was direct
menace to that influence.
What would the world do if nc
more children We're TO be reared in

further declared that while all suf-
fragists may not be Socialists, all So

and said that her colleagues were all
women and they lacked in their speak
ers such a supporter as the eloquent
member of the bar who led the case for
| those who were asserting their eapability
Of getting along without such aid.
She urged that the condition of work
ingmen had not been bettered by the bal
lot. but through union and solidarity Of
effort and action, and that women could
not better the conditions of their kind
SO much through the use Of the ballot as
through solidarity of action, bringing
about arbitration and adjustment TO
proper conditions. in the case of the
shirtwaist makers strike in New York
some months ago She pointed TO the
fact that when men legisiate for women
they legislate not only for womanklnd
as a whole somewhat disiuterestedly, per-
haps, but for their wives, sisters, moth
ers and daughters, and could hardly be
more soiicitous for good laws for wo-
men than they were. She said women
could not purify politics, as has been
claimed by the proponents of suffrage,
for humanity is alike in man and In wo-
man. and the human nature of one can
not purify more than the human nature
of the other
Then she told the great audience some
| thing in z most emphatic manner
something they will not forget. She
said: las for the mental equality OF men
and women women are the equals OF
men. there is no doubt about it" And
general applause followed the statement
1t is a good thing, che said. for man
to have a woman 10 prOtecr and for a
woman 10 have a man to protect her
and Maine men have always protected
Maine women nobly. In speaking of the
mental equality of men and women she

match the men"

the subject of the afternoon. She said
she came from New Jersey, the State
which did away with suffrage without
a dissenting voice Of woman, for. as
the repeal act read, the promotion of
order quiet and dignity at the polls"
She declared suffrage is not for the
real welfare of the State or the women
in it. In comparison of the temper
