EQUAL SUFFRAGE BILL
FAVORABLY REPORTED
Only Three of the Committee OF
Nine Did Not Sign Report

Washington. - The Susan b. An
hony amendment providing for WON
IN suffrage was reported favorably t
he Senate by the suffrage committee
Manhood suffrage has been
from time to time extended.
Every enlargement of the fran
chise has been a natural and log
ical development of the principle
of popular sovereignty.
In our opinion every argument
and every principle upon which
universal manhood suffrage rests
demands the extension of it's
privileges and responsibilities to
women. They are subject to the
laws, are taxed for the support OF
government and subject with men
to a common political destiny.
They comprise so per cent of our
population. They are citizens in
all other respects. Together with
the men they constitute the peo-
pie.
Are Mans Equal.
In patriotism, intelligence, de-
votion to welfare of the govern
ment and in capacity for fran
chise they are in no wise inferior
to men.
Neither logically nor Justly
therefore, can unlimited suffrage
be recognized as an essential to
our republican form of govern
ment and it's existence at the
same time be limited to one
half OF the people, arbitrarily seq
regated from the other half by
the accident of sex.
Women's activities, participa-
ton. sacrifices and misfortunes in
the great conflict now raging over
three continents have for all time
disposed OF the contention that
she should not be armed with the
ballot because she cannot WELD
the sword
Justice is Coming.
Man has become conscious OF
her powerful cooperation in war;
he will soon recognize the justice
of her demands to share his bur
den in public affairs in times OF
peace.
The report was signed by Senators
Thomas. owen and Hollis. Democrats
md Sutherland, Clapp and Jones, Re
,ublicans. Senator Catron, Repub
lean, of New Mexico, dissentod. and
senator Johnson, Democrat. OF Soutt
Dakota, did not sign the report. Sen

'ear on it when presented

will become as an altar of sacrifice.
larger than the greatest Of cities, and
the corpses will have changed its
shape by raising in it chains Of
mounds.
81. The Antichrist will lose his
crown and will die demcntcd and
alone. His Empire will be divided in
to II states, but none will have either
a royal house, or army, or vessels.
90 The white eagle by Michcel's or
der will drive the Crescent from Eu-
rope, where only Christians will re-
main; it will occupy Constantinople.
33. Then an era Of peace and pros
perity will commence for all the uni
verse, and there will be no more war,
each nation being governed according
to its wish and living in justice.
34>Thero will be no more Lutherans
or Schmismatics. The Lamb will
reign, and the joys Of humanity will
commence. Happy they, who, escap-
ing can taste Of It's fruit, which viii be

mercy; he will pass along hiding a
torch like the barbarians, but invoking
the name of Christ,
II. His false words will resemble
those of Christians but his acts will
be those of Nero and the Roman per-
secutors; there will be an eagle in his
coat of arms and there will also be one
in that of his confederate, the other
wicked monarch.
IL. But this one is a Christian, and
he will die cursed by the Pope Bene-
dictus, who will be elected at the be-
ginning of the reign Of the Antichrist.
10. Priests and monks will no long
.er be seen confessing and absolving
the combatants because for the first
time priests and monks will fight with
he other citizens, and also because,
Pope Benedictus having cursed the
Antichrist, it will be proclaimed that
all those who wage war against nm
viii be in state Of grace, and should
they die, will, like martyrs, go
straight to heaven.
IA. The Pope's "Bull' proclaiming
these things will make great sensa-
ton and will cause the death Of the
monarchs, the Antichrist's ally.
IS. In order to conquer the Anti
christ, more men must be killed than
Rome has ever held. 1t will require
an effort from all lands, for the cock,
the leopard, and the white eagle would
not suffice to overrule the black eagle
