of the bands to furnish music for the

meritorious musical organization.

the very best time possible for their
visitors on that day. Courier.

suffragists Unjust to the President

THOSE woman suffrag ists who attack the
= President in connection with the suf-
frage plank in the Democratic platform seem
to take no account of the unfalterng mental
honesty Of the man. He has time and again
expressed his belief in the justice of extending
the suffrage to women, and has even voted
for it. But he has always held. and openly,
that it was question for settlement by the
individual States Holding that opinion lie
would have stultfed himself and discredited
his position If he had advocated the adoption
OF constitutional amendment. In this as
In all public matters. he has stood firmly on
his convictions.
For that matter, the Democratic plat
forms reference TO woman suffrage was vir-
tually what contained &n the platforms
Of both the other Parties. The Republicans
openly declared for State action, and the Pro
gressives saved the point by advocating Full
political rights Of suffrage either by State or
Federal action"
