Woman s Suffrage Leader Is
For Continuance of Battle

has given evidence of a change Of
view. Some time ago he announced
his amazement OF the utterly unexpect-
ed skill, strength and resource de-
veloped by the women and his graft
tude for their loyalty and devotion. A
public statement issued by Mr.. AS
quith in August, was couched in such
terms as to be interpreted by many as
a pledge to include women in the next
election bill.
"The significance of the changed
status of European women has not
been lost upon the men and women OF
our land; our own people are not so
unlearned in history, nor so lacking in
National pride that they will allow the
Republic to lag long behind the EN-
pire presided over by the descendant Of
George the Third If they possess tae
patriotism and the sense of nationality
which should be the inheritance of an
American, they will not wait until the
war is ended but will boldly lead in the
inevitable march of democracy, our
own American specially.
"As the most adamantine rock gives
way under the constant dripping IF
water, so the opposition to woman suf
frage in our own country has slowly
disintegrated before the increasing
strength of our movement.
In explaining her reasons for this
stand, Mrs Gait reviewed the fight 'oy
suffrage in many states and the OBJ
stacles it had met from the liquor IN
terest, and charged there had been
widespread resort to illegal practices
to defeatt suffrage, whereas in a ma
jority of the states of the union-in 25
of them-there was no provision made
by law for any form of contest or re-
count on a referendum. Political
corrupters may, in these states, bribe
voters, colonize voters, and repeat
them to their hearts content and -e-
dress of any kind is practically i'm
possible"
"In my judgment" she concluded,
"the women OF this land, not only have
the right to sit on the steps of Cor
g-ess until it acts but it is their self
respecting duty to insist upon their
enfranchisement by that route"
