Rights. In the questions they asked,
in the speeches they made, we found
Democratic congressman were so far
as women are concerned living in the
era Of smelling salts and crinolines. AS
they are incapable of moving forward,
we want them to move out.
Nor can we permit them to shift re-
sponsibility. The Democratic party has
been in complete power since 1912.
They dominate every committee in
house and senate. They control the ap-
preparations, they determine the pa
ronage. They are supreme and they
are responsible. Democratic apologists
urge: "Oh, but it takes a two thirds
vote to pass an amendment and the
Democrats have not that Majority -
The defense is weak. In 1913 and up
to the 1914 election he Democrats did
have two-thirds majority in the
house of representatives and they used
their supreme power to block the suf-
frage measure. And when vote IN
the measure was finally taken two.
thirds of the Democrats voted agains. J.,
and two-thirds of the Republicans for
the bill. In the senate in that memora-
BILE year Of 1914 we failed by only
eleven votes of getting the necessary
two-thirds votes. Only 81 per cent of
tho nnmnnrofto ! L.,
measure, At per cent of the RepubI-
cans. If ever majority of the Demo-
Gratis had voted for us the amendment
would have carried. The Democratic
party had the power to aid women in
their battle for political freedom. It
failed to help. We hold it responsible
for its deeds.
The caucus Of the Democratic party
has been as inimical to woman suffrage
ss congressional committees. On Feb.
1914, caucus Of the Democratic
members of the house refused to aid
in creating q woman suffrage commit.
tee and by vote Of 1913 to 81 passed
a resolution declaring the question Of
the right Of women to self government
was state and not federal matter.
The caucus Of the Democratic party
was inimical to justice to women. Tho
Democratic majorities on congressional
committees are inimical to Justice to
women. The Democratic party domi.
nant in the senate and house is inimical
to justice to women.
To delegations waiting on him at the
beginning Of his administration, Presi-
dent Wilson had no good word to say
for woman suffrage. The question
looked to him "unimportant" and
negligible. AS time passed and we drove
home upon him the bigness of the de-
mand for the largest measure of enfran-
chisement ever made in the history of the
world, President Wilson became at
least tepid on the question. He finally
said he was in favor, but expressed q
determined adhesion to . way Of st.

URGES SUPPORT OF
MEDICAL BILL

Thursday evening, DR.. Aubrey ii.
Williams of Denver, explained the hin
known as "House Bill No. 179-An
Act Relating to the practice of medi
cine in the state of Colorado to =
small but appreciative audience at the
Motor club.
Those who did not hear him missed
treat, as he is very able speaker
and as the bill is of so much Importance
to every one the County Medical soci
ETY. regrets that more did not attend.
! Read the bill, it is not a partisan
measure, and was passed by the last
session of our legislature, but thrown
out on technicality by means Of which
the originators have NO reason to BE-
proud.
The bill provides for the licensure Of
Osteopaths, Chiropractors and others
who do not practice regular mediciue.
If passed this bill will improve stand
ard, or rather establish standard to
which all must conform who wish to
practice these branches Of medicine in
Colorado.
Many very intelligent people hav.
the idea that all referred bills are bad
bills or they would not be referred, bur
this bill is of such vital Importance to
everybody that you are urged to res,t
it and not be governed by what you
are told by politicians, this is not n
party measure but it Is intended to
better the class Of men who practice
medicine In our state. Can you doubt
its importance to youi Read TT.

question of full citizenship for women.
Europe is reaching out towards COM
plete democracy. Last year three Of
the provinces Of Canada, (Alberts,
Manitoba, Saskatchewan, in the very
heat of battle, gave, by legislative act,
the ballot to women. And in British
Columbia, in Sept, 1915, votes for
women were gained on a referendum,
suffrage carrying in every district Of
the province. In states, too, lying on
the very fringe of the combat, we see
no distrust of women citizens. In
June, 1915, Denmark conferred com.
plete enfranchisement on her women,
and at the last election Finland elect
ed to its diet of 200 members, "a wo-
men. In the closing hours of parlia-
ment during a debate on the question
of permitting every soldier and sailor
however young to register as voter,
Mr.. Asquith, the premier, he, who in
the past was one of the bitterest OF
our opponents, said if any extension
Of the franchise was to be considered
on the basis of service women could
not be forgotten.
Why this change of attitude, why all
this consideration for womenl Be-
cause their supreme service to the
state has been dramatized, made strik-
ing. All see it, all appreciate it, all
wish to honor that service with full
citizenship.
Fteedom-the right and duty to gov.
ern oneself, that to begin with. Eu-
ropes greatest need in 1914. She re-
Allies it now, and democracy will take
great strides forward when peace
, reigns again. There will be political
liberty for the men and women Of Eu-
rope. All that is why our battle cry
is "Suhrage First"
With the realization then that the po-
: litical enfranchisement Of women is q
pressing world issue, we ask ourselves
tho practical questions: Who Is chief
enemy In our pathf
What weapon can we use to overcome
that enemyi
In 1912 the Democratic party had an
overwhelming victory. It's choice for
president sat in the White House, It's
representatives were in command Of
congress. Not for a decade had any
party been SO completely dominant
Soon after its ascendency to power the
Democratic party was called upon to
live up to its principles that all just
governments derive their power from
the consent Of the governed by passing
on the states for ratification wo'
mans suffrage amendment to the
Omitted States constitution. By every
Peceable means the justice Of the
cause was urged upon the dominant
party. Reason was appealed to through
arguments at hearings. The vigor aud
the wide extent Of our demand was
demonstrated IN great parades. Dole.
