earnestly striving, the activities of
the state are destined to be greatly
extended and diversified.
They will impinge on the individ-
ual life from many angles. The abb
surdity and injustice Of excluding
half of the normal adults OF the pop
ulation from any participation in
those activities will become incrcas-
ingly evident. The world has dis
covered. that 1t needs women work
ers in most other fields of human
activity. 1t is rapidly arriving at a
consciousness of the same need in
the field OF government and states
manship. What has hitherto passed
in the world for democracy has been
in fact a mere androcracy. The true
democracy is to arrive when We have
a universal regime OF equal suffrage,

1t is an equal suffrage idea, One Of
the most unique mediums ever de-

DR.. ARBUTHN0T
FOR SUFFRAGE
RiQht Of Women to Vote Just
as Sound as that Of
Men.

/ Rev. S. K Arbuthnot is pastor Of
the First NJ. T.. church, of Parkers-
burg. He is one Of the best known
ministers of that denomination in the
state. His reasons for supporting
the equal suffrage amendment are
interesting and worthy the attention
of every voter in West Virginia, Fol
lowing is statement by Rev.
Arbuthnot
In my opinion the natural right of
woman to vote is just as sound as
that of man and rests eyactlyupon
the same ground. Women should
vote because all fairminded persons
will agree they have right TO eX-
press their choice as to who the off
iceholders shall be lnasmuch as they,
along with all others are controlled
and subjected to the laws their re-
personalities shall enact. Suffrage
should no more be a matter OF sex
any more than it should be a matter
of race. The disfranchlsemcNt Of
women IS unsurpation Of power, a
yclic of barbarism unworthy Of CHI
Various manhood that should be re-
stored and made right by the free
dom loving sons Of West Virginia
rolling up great majority for Wo-
man Suffrage at the ballot box next
November,
IN future years our descendants
will look back to these times and
marvel at the supreme enront@y Of
the male population arrogatmg to
themselves all the privileges Of cit
izenship for generation after genera
ton. Posterity will stand amazed,
sist on getting full value Instead Of
their increasing the taxes it is safe
to conclude that whey they vote in
