LETTERS TO EDITOR
Women Not Reliable

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
According to Judge Oscar Hundley, the
women have shown in this election that
they are not to be trusted politically"
And he fears that in this election the
women have simply given demonstra-
ton of the tactics they would pursue
should they be given the vote"
The judge expresses himself on this
matter as though there was but one
course for the women to pursue in order
to be reliable and certainly that would
be for them all, collectively and indi-
vidually to vote the republican ticket
He seems to overlook the fact that the
women also have rights, and are wise
and independent enough to cast their
votes for the safety and betterment OF
the country.
OF course, it all depends upon the angle
from which one views the situation.
Now, from my standpoint and apparently
from that of the great majority of the
he-voters of this nation. the she-voters
in this election have shown that they
are very much to be trusted in politics.
And, if in this election they demon
strated the tactics" they would pursue
then l think every southern white man
should rally to the cause of woman suf-
frage without hesitation. II the women
voters, in this election had turned their
backs upon reason and common sense,
and voted against the safety and best in
terest OF the country-which l was really
afraid they had conspired to do--then |
should be very much perturbed over their
tactics and would look upon the situa-
ton with the same degree of horror and
fear that Judge Hundley is now realz-
ing from his angles
But, fortunately, not only for the good
women and their righteous cause, but for
the entire nation and every good cause,
they proved to be true and reliable
And they have thoroughly demonstrated
the fact that we may implicitly trust
them to guard, uphold and support all the
best interests of great nation like ours.
As long as | am willing to eat my wife S
biscuits, / will be in favor of woman
suffrage ROB ADAMS.
