The Manufacturers of Detroit

The other day telegraphic news received in Q Phoenix in the course of commercial report that Detroit manufacturers had urged the defeat of Col onel Roosevelt in the republican national convention What manufacturers was not stated nor how many of them took this stand why they took that stand. But happened to have at hand the statement of a> very renowned Detroit manufacturer Hugh Chalmers the automobile manufacturer who had just returned Detroit from a journey the Pacific coast, who said that Roosevelt and Return to Americanism,' was the sentiment he encountered the coast He further said:
 More than ever the west has come to realize the need for a of Roosevelts character. experience and breadth of view. While on the coast attended many great gatherings of civic bodies including men of every political faith. The return favor of Colonel Roosevelt is undisputed. As far the is con- cerned he hold down his old job for four years more.
 Personally after a review of world affairs of the past two years believe that a failure to nominate MT. Roosevelt the June convention of the repub ican party would amount to a national misfortune.
 T find myself in an identical position with thous ands of other American voters Four years ago voted against Col Roosevelt's election But the s- of four years back petty and trfng pared with those of the present day Today for good and sufficient reasons have swung back to his standard.
 This country is at present in the position of a great corporation drifting along without capable ecutve it's head It is the board of directors to select general manager.
 Would that board of directors consider placing man of unknown policies and doubtful experience in
 responsible position? Without question. they would seek the man who had demonstrated beyond doubt his fitness for the important post in the bus- ness. We have that serious problem before today in the selection of the highest the land And of all the of presidential possibilities The odore Roosevelt stands out the single logical choice"

the party adopted by them party measure and they apt stand by it at the polls though they may not approve We do not think that is good system but it is nevertheless fact which we must recognize But in England where question which parliament cannot settle is thrown before the coun- try, the party advocating or opposing it may be de- feaed for that the voters view the ques- ton on it's merits and not the doctrine of party.

 "Non- -partisanship is the original platform of the movement and it has been in wise changed by the fanking movement of certain group of fighters. The main battle line fights under the original method We recognize the fact that the fankng movement gains d certain temporary adherence because it appeals to some opponents of the party that happens to be in power When take up the weapons of opposition we lay ourselves open the possibility of being used weapon ourselves. And suffrage should not be made the tool of any political party
 We should remember that only through coop of all interested in the movement can we gain success This cooperation not only between those of varying opinions in our own ranks but be- the suffrage workers whole and their friends in any all parties, any and all times We need to put up candidates of Our friends among the legislators growing in number daily.

The Woman's Party

Why the National Woman Suffrage Association will oppose the woman's party movement stated recently by Mrs Frank NJ. Roessng vice president of the association a representative of the Christian Science Monitor. The reasons obvious that a statement of them seems hardly necessary They had suggested themselves almost every outside of the movement the instant it proposed The standing is which friends of suff- than any other people in the coun- try. It is that the woman's party agitation sarily handicaps the equal suffrage by ere ating mtiagonsms against it that would not other wise exist It threatens penalize a great party which happens to have majority in congress for inability to perform impossiblity.
 Said Mrs. Roessing:
 "'rhe group which believes the best results can be obtained for suffrage by fighting the party in power when the suffrage amendment failed secure two thirds vote forms comparatively new organization which may be growing at present because of it's pe- cuar appeal to opponents of the party in power but which does not represent either the original or majority view of the suffrage workers
 "The leaders in congress recognize as do we that not since 1869 has party had of all the votes in both branches of congress party is nec- esssrily always in the majority it cannot be held responsible for wo-thrds vote when it does not it. As it is likely any party will soon again have thirds of the in congress- and be able alone to put through congress the federal amend ment, it behooves all suffragists secure the SUD- port of all parties, in order that may gather from each the strength votes to secure the passage of resolution.
 Now the national association believes it is de- cidedy unwise to oppose the party in power by stumping against all it's congressional candidates for several reasons. One is that it lays the suffrage workers open to injuring the chances of men who ,s..ro hnn,,
 states Senator Thomas who for years has favored our cause opposed by this minority ele ment simply because he democrat. He was returned to the senate notwithstanding this opposi- ton We can't work in that way for that method does not make for co-operaton We want all the hep we can get from every party and any attitude which lines us up as body in direct opposition to any party is fallacious and destructive to the suffrage in terests."
 Mrs. Roessing makes a point of the fact that the system of government in this country is different from that of England where miltancy had it's origin Foolish as mitancy, and ineffecual has it been proved to be there would still more ineffecua and foolish here where minimizing women have sought to copy 1t. Party lines here more closely drawn and are more nearly permanent. What a party es- pouses though it may not appeal to all members of
