EQUAL SUFFRAGE FOR GOOD
~" or STATE.
PRAISES WOMAN AS CITIZEN
, No Trimmes--Hs Fsvors Votes for
Women Because Il lie Her RIuh.

sl Equal. ssN

One of the most scholarly Of the
West Virginia Baptist pastors is Rev.
Joseph A. Bennett Of the First Baptist
Church OF sistersNIle. He Is out
bpolsen in HIS advocacy Of the adop.
ZION of the pending suffrage amend.
nent. Both with his voice and his
pen he is lending his influence for
equal suffrage. It was Rev. Bennett
who introduced the strong resolutions
which were adopted by the recent
state Sunday school convention In
Morgantown. Recently he wrote for
publication his reasons for believing
IN tho extension Of the franchise TO
women. His statement follows:
II am most heartily in favor OF
Equal suffrage, not because they shall
vote as do. but because l believe
they are as Justly entitled to the priv.
lege as are the men. am a Repub.
ican. but II they were to vote the
Democratic ticket would still be in
tavor OF them. lam strong dry ad.
Socate, but II the women should vote
against me in this, yet would give
them the vote, and why not. have
never yet read or heard anything
against equal suffrage that deserves to
be called an argument. BY every yIr.
tue which enters into the character Of
good citizen. she Is entitled to the
privilege. What makes for good citi.
Eenship? Is It patriotism, intelligence,
property, courage, altruism? In all
these things she Is on a level with
man. AL the talk about unsexing
woman and robbing her Of her charms
is idiotic. Neither the franchise nor
any other power can change the social,
moral and spiritual powers which We
so much admire In women. You can't
change woman's nature by external
occupations. Gods work is not NULL.
fed SO easily-to use the thought OF
another. Power makes all OF her vir.
tues greater. It makes purity more
lustrous, love stronger. devotion moro
fervent and comprehensive. It gives
energy to prudence, laFgeness to wis.
dom, circuit to devoutness, and makes
sympathy itself more clasping. For
these and many other reasons am in
favor Of equal suffrage.
Respectfully yours,
JOSEPH A. BENNETT,
Pastor First Baptist Church.

GOVERNOR DEFEATS WOMEN

HIRITIoN-sPRY vEToEs
MEASURE.

Utah Is sometimes cited as a SUI.
frage state where the women voters
have not secured prohibition. There
Is a reason. The women have done
their duty in Utah, but their votes
have been nulllfed by the veto OF the
governor OF the state. Il is needless to
say that that governor is not woman.
Twice have the women and the best
men Of that state elected Legisla.
ture pledged to prohibition and twice
has II been their lot to see the bill ve-
toed by the Same governor. In elect.
ing two legislatures pledged to prohi.
bition they expressed the wish of the
citizens and twice was that wish utter.
" disregarded by man who CHANGED
TO occupy the governors chair.
But oven with these setbacks the
women Of Utah have made great
strides for temperance. More than
three-fourths . OF the state is dry
through local option, and excellent
state laws have been passed which
make the local prohIbitive acts most
effective.
Thus, one by one the false claims
OF the whiskey ring are disproved.
But the lies OF the opposition are
poured out as fast as the printing
presses can reproduce them. There is
only one thing for thinking men and
women TO do when they receive such
literature" and that il to know that

AUTOMOBILE PUPIL
 DRIVES INTO POLE
R. A. Hamilton of Hartford Hurled Through Windshield in New
 ingtOn Accident Today.
Especial to the Herald.)

Especial to the Herald.)
 Newington, Sept. 27.-A sensational automobile accident, remarkable for it's many exciting features, occurred in front of the Maple Hill Golf club station in Newington this morning when heavy Cadillac automobile, in charge of R. A. Hamilton of the kilby- Hamilton garage of Hartford, crashed into a large telegraph pole. The big car struck the pole with such force that the front spring, projecting in front of the radiator, was driven en- tirely through the pole and it re- quired hard work with a crow bar to Dry the pole apart to release it.
 According to witnesses MT. Hamil- ton was teaching a young woman from Hartford how to operate the car and she was at the wheel. It ap- peared that she became confused while attempting to negotiate the curve and headed directly for the pole.
 MT. Hamilton jumped from his seat and grabbed the wheel, but too late, and the force of the collision hurled him head foremost through the plate glass windshield. He was cut about the head and hands but a heavy hat he wore saved him from more serious injuries. The front of the car was badly battered.

 "The mirage of commercial and po- litical sectionalism swims before the eyes of our representative in congress. It is an optical illusion. It does not exist. We note his expressions of disapprOval of the actions of Presi- dent Wilson and the sixty-fourth congress, but you cannot find in the records of that congress any construc- tive measure that was fathered by that captious representative.

that considerable advantages of ter rain were considered to be with the Germans
 The progress made by the French beyond Bouchavesnes is regarded here as one of the most surprising results of the operations. French officers declare that this success demonstrates the growing power Of the French of- fensive and the failing resistance of the Germans. The hills which sur- round this village were swept on three sides by all the German artillery from St. Pierre Vaast Wood in the north to Mont St. Quentin in the south Nevertheless they were stormed and the capture of Hill 13O, which threat ems directly Allaines, paves the way for a vigorous enveloping movement around Mont St. Quentin and Per- onne. The newspapers compare the present offensive with the bloody and futile attempts of the French to break through the German lines in Artois and Champagne last year and express the greatest optimism over the present situation.
 All of the military writers in the newspapers agree that the results of Mondays and Tuesdays fighting are among the most important gained in the whole series of battles on he Somme front.
 The phrase in the official statement from Berlin: we are obliged to ad- init the success obtained by our ad- versaries' is interpreted by many newspapers as a sign that the Ger mans know that the allies are get ting the upper hand The papers ex- ultantly sum up the results to date or the great offensive as forty-four Villages and 190 square miles of ter rltory conquered and 60,0OO prison CTS taken.
