MISS KATE DEvEREux BLAKE
Of New York, distinguished educator,
lecturer and writer who is giving one
month of her tseded vacation to the
Equal Suffrag, campaign in West
Virginia. She is greeted with great
audiences wherever she appears.
At Clarksburg Miss Blake said that
in her investigations in the slum
parts. of New York City $4,000 fami
lies had been found who were living
In one and two interior rooms in
which there were no windows. 1t is
almost beyond the power of the aver
age West Virginia resident, blessed
as he is with the great outdoors OF
the Mountain State, to believe that
such conditions can exist in any civil
lied community of white people. Yet
it was this same city that led in the
refusal of the franchise to women
last fall The leading cry Of the
Ants in that election was that WON
ans place is the home" Strange as
1t may seem this cry in the mouths of
those opposed to equal suffrage lost
many votes for the amendment.
The speaker contended that truly
womans place is the home and that
these $4,000 sunless homes speak in
thunder tones for better conditions.
For 128 years New York has been
manhood suffrage state and yet
these conditions prevail. 1t is not
thinkable tLs.J with women voting
and with VIC, cas- acknowledged place
in the homo at these disease breed
ing place J exist longer than it
takes TO aOo.iah them.
In the same blocks where these
dark homes" are situated the only
Fairgrounds FIR the almost number
less childreT q the streets. Actual
measuremeffe show that each child,
IL allowed u ay on these so-called
Fairgrounds, would have just the
same room as would be allowed it in
a graveyard-aa;nely two feet by six
Surely woman's place is in the
home, and when she gets the vote she
will better such homes as these-and
all others, too.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE

AS | have seen nothing in the
paper by correspondents, will
give an item.
There are twelve states that
have woman suffrage. Are
those states prospecting more
than West Virginia? In Los An
geles, Cal, two women out of
seventy-one registered voted. In
Chicago out of 626,629 women
registered, 1885 voted. In
Colorado where they voted for
Prohibition, Nov. 5, I912,75,877
for and 116,774 against, if So
per cent of the women over 81
years of age would have had
voted for prohibition TOP ma
jority there being 213,425 wo-
men over Fl years of age.
At Colorado Springs, Colo,
where sale of liquor was prohib-
tied for many years when men
voted alone, but when women
voted on the question, selling of
liquor was legalized, there being
S19 women over 81 years more
than men. No woman suffrage
state can show better laws than
can be shown in male suffrage
states.
Judge Linsey in an address in
Denver, Colo, last year said"We
are 20 years behind Mass, in
spite of suffrage"
If it is right for all to vote
who pay taxes and who live
under laws they must obey
them, then all state laws pre-
venting Chinese. u. S. soldiers
and illiterate men from voting
should be repealed.
Where they have woman suf-
frage, there is an average of
365 divorces out of 100000 mar
riages, where the have only
male suffrage there is only 264
divorces out of 100000 marri-
ages.
AS my letters have not been
printed for some time, / will
write no more if this one is not
printed, but if it is printed, l
will write next week.

DEMOCRATS PLANK PLAIN
Urges Voters of Party to Support the
Pending Suffrage Amendment
at Polls

The recent Democratic State con-
yention at Parkersburg showed that
its leaders were men who have
keen respect for the wishes of the
women of West Virginia. The plat
form committee recommended by a
vote Of 10 to that the pending suf-
flage amendment be endorsed A mi
nority report opposed such plank.
The convention rejected the minority
report without division on the
floor.
The plank as adopted reads:
THE woman suffrage amendment
has been submitted to the people, and,
while this convention has no power to
bind the individual voter, it expresses
its conviction that the amendment
should be ratified"

WHAT CATkRRH IS

1t has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates a general weakness
of the body; and local treatments in
the form of snufs and vapors do little,
if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat its
cause by enriching your blood with the
oil food in Scott's Emulsion which is a
medicinal food and building tonic, free
from alcohol or any harmfuldrugs. Tryit.
