Even in time of profound peace

done.

Masculine and Feminine


One Of the questions OF today is ma.
tional suffrage for women, and but 1t
has met with a great deal of opposition
Yet II is evident that this opposition
will give way under the strength Of
the forward march. 1t is slowly NOV
ing with such compact force that all
to the contrary must eventually be
broken down. And why? Because
nature and law OF being will not be
cheated out of its rightful expression
And that expression must come
through the channel ordained for II
or the result is distorted and imper-
feet.
In all nature we have the operation
of both masculine and feminine
qualities. In chemicals lin plant and
animal life. the masculine and femin-
Inc must enter into all expression.
And so II is in the laws that control
these external expressions. To have
perfect harmonious working order we
must have both the masculine and
feminine ideas. What is the home
without the perfect cooperation of
husband and wife? We must admit
that all homes are not in perfect order,
but the reason is lack of equally and
perfectly assimilated ideas of both
man and woman into perfect rule.
Tho law Of life is sharing air .ys. In
the law OF action it takes both quail
ties to make a perfect result and those
qualities must be rightfully proper
toned. Therefore the great conten-
ton now over woman suffrage.
We have not yet learned that the
laws of nation, to be perfect, must
contain equally the masculine and
feminine ideas, When we sum it up,
government is for man, the result or
offspring of the perfect cooperation of
the masculine and feminine in their
mutual attraction. Therefore any law
to govern that result or expression,
lacking the cooperation of the ideas
of both qualities must be imperfect.
Men and women should not be war

Broad Minded Argument
For Woman Suffrage

ing and contending over this question
but look to the cause. the fundamental
principle that is forcing the issue.
Man has his part to do and woman
has her part to do in executing the
law. but the law SHOULD be formed by
the equal voice Of both.
Women have realized they were
cheated somehow, somewhere. They
saw in the results the lack of proper
adjustment and started to fight to
change IL. But not all have gone in.
to the fight thoroughly understand,
ing the urge they felt within them.
So they have made some mistakes
and have sometimes antagonized the
masculine part. But the urge in them
is right and the men must not mis-
understand them. Woman will and
must ever go on being the true fem
mime quality. No one can thwart the
laws OF being. But man and woman
must go hand in hand both in form.
ing the law Of the home and the law
OF the nation. For the law of the ma
ton needs the voice Of the woman
the same as the law of the home does,
though the man and woman may have
quite different parts of that law to
execute.
Men and women must try to under
stand each other instead of this 81
will" and You won't" stand. For,
after we have thrown all the missiles
in the shape of sarcasm, ridicule and
accusations Of woman with the
trousers on, and, on the other hand.
Men are cruel, selfish beasts" and
the rest Of the innumerable things;
the fundamental principle is still here,
and we realize that men and women
are still indispensable to each other.
They go on loving and mating just
the same as ever, bringing into express
sion the result of that love-the child,
man made manifest, that must have
government care and protection.
So I, as woman, say to man: Let
us be friends!"

TRIBUNE ms GOOD
WORD FOR NEVADA

In recent editorial. the Salt Lake
Tribune has the following good words
to say about Nevada:
Nevada is known as the Sagebrush
state-but that Is heritage of the
days when sagebrush was about the
only thing that had been discovereI
there except cacu and rattiesnakes.
The Nevada Of today is common
wealth OF good farms and ranches, OF
pretty cities, of wonderful mines and
of good citizens.
Distinction is claimed by and for the
state on account OF its splendid mines.
Perhaps no more sensational discover
les in the metals have been made than
In this particular commonwealth. Its
contributions to the money accumula-
tons Of the United States have been
plentiful and continuous since the old
days Of Virginia City and Comstock.
During the year just closed the rec
ord Of abundant mineral output has
been admirably maintained, and this
has ben accompanied by Developments
indicating that there is no limit to the
states resources in this particular res
pect.
Along with the development indus
trially has gone city building of an
admirable character. The state is be-
ing civically transformed. Nowhere
else in the United States has there
been more apparent the steadying
hand Of civilization.
Nevada's citizens are brave, else
they could not have brought out of ma
lures formidabIy.Iocked treasure
house the wondrous wealth which has
come from the state. Brave as they
are known to be they naturally enter
upon the year 1916 filled with admir-
able confidence. and 1t is safe to say
that twelve months from now will
find more glorious Nevada.
