They do wrong who say come more
When I knock and fail to find you in
For every day stand outside your door
And bid you wake, and rise to fight and win
Wall not for precious chances passed away,
Weep for golden ages the wanel
Each night burn the records OF the day
At sunrise every soul is born again!
Laugh like q boy at splendors that have sped,
To vanished joys be blind and deaf and dumb;
judgments seal the dead past with its dead,
But bind a moment yet 10 come.
Though deep in mire wiring not your hands and weep,
lend my arm TO all who say Il cam
No shame-faced outcast ever sank deep,
But yet might rise and be again mani
Dost thou behold thy lost youth all aghast?
Dost reel from righteous Retributions blow?
Then turn from blotted archives OF the past,
And find the futures pages white snow.
Art thou mourner? Rouse thee from thy spell;
Art thou sinner? Sins may be forgiven;
Each morning gives thee wings TO fee from hell
Each night guide thy feet to heaven.

Spokane, Wash, Aug. 10-The in

the boycott on the part of labor unions

use this means itself. It proposes to
use it against the Chamber of Com
merce if that body does not have it's
trustees adopt resolution to fight to
maintain the open shop issue.
In order to enforce it's demands, the
employers association has threatened
to withdraw from the Chamber Of
Commerce So that the members of
the organization may know the i'm
portance of this step, tie association
heads have told the Chambers trus-
tees that they are contributing $4,000
yearly to the support of the CONNER
cial body.
Now they are trying to compel the
passage of an open shop resolution on
penalty of Withdrawing this support.
The resolution states that CONNER
cial growth and prosperity the mer-
chants-can come only under the open
shop policy, as then it is Impossible

WOMAN'S PLACE
IS IN The HOME
West Virginia Equal Suffrage
Association Stands for Home
and Children Always

There is one common argument
used by both those favoring and
those opposed to equal suffrage. Els
pecially is this the case in West
Virginia where the State Equal SUI
frage Association has always insisted
that "woman's place is in the
home" BY taking SAis stand long
before the invasion of the Ants from
New York and the East, great deal
Of ammunition of the invaders was
spoiled.
It Is the contention of the speak
ers for equal suffrage that with the
vote it Is possible for women to dc
much more for the home and in the
home than without it. This has been
proved SO many times in the suffrage
states that it is no longer debatable
between those who are informed. The
Ants, however, hope by playing up
on the minds of those who are not
posted to create prejudice against
the amendment and thereby defeat
It this fall.
1t will not be denied that the prin.
cipal duty of the home is the moth
ering and. bringing up of children
OF course this is entirely woman's
work. Mans work should be pro
viding the means whereby this
duty may be successfully accomplish.
ed When he fails, either because
Of illness, accident, misfortune or
death, what is the woman to- do?
She Is often left with a large family
Of small children and no means to
Is able to earn. The records Of every
charitable organization in West Vir
ginia, as we'll as in the country, show
that nine-tenths Of the calls for aid
come from women who have thus
been compelled to become the provid.
ers as we'll as the mothers and in.
structors OF the home.
Thus has come about the move
ment to provide mothers pensions
which has been successfully agitated
in 81 states. If the Anti speakers
are TO be believed the indirect in.
6uepce" of women should have had no
difficulty in persuading the men in
the manhood suffrage states to- pass
laws granting these pensions. Has
this wonderful power been able to
accomplish this result?

states a Mothers Pension law has

MAJORITY'S WOMANS PAGE
WOMEN TO QUIZ
THE CANDIDATES
Will Ask Every West Virginia
Nominee His Stand on
Equal Suffrage

The national conventions Of all the
political parties have endorsed the
principle of equal suffrage. The Re-
publican and Democratic platforms
have referred the question to the sew
eral states for settlement, with the
recommendation that the ballot be
given to women. The first state to
decide this momentus question is
West Virginia. Long before the
meeting of the National conventions
the men of the Mountain State had
decided that the time had come to
obtain the opinion Of the voters.
They were in the van on this matter
and the great parties but followed
their lead
Since all the parties favor the ex-
tension of the franchise without re-
gard to sex the West Virginia Equal
Suffrage Association is Of the belief
that 1t Is only fair to the voters who
have TO decide this question, TO the
women who will be so greatly benefit
ted, and to the candidates themselves
that the personal opinion OF each
and every nominee now before the
people should be ascertained. 1t IL
not the intention of the campaign
committee to ask any candidate to
pledge himself to the support of the
pending amendment. The women are
well aware that such a proceeding
you'd be contrary to the corrupt
practices act.
Nevertheless, the importance Of
the question now before the people,
and the fact that some of the candi.
dates may be running upon plat
form to which they do not give their
support, makes it necessary that the
personal attitude of nominees shall
be ascertained. To this end, there
fore, inquiries will be addressed to
all the candidates in West Virginia
requesting that they state to the
campaign committee of the SUI
frage Association how they stand
on the subject Of equal suffrage.
It is recognized that all candi-
dates, as we'll as all men, do not
agree on this question. 1t is also be-
lieved that the voters Of the state
have the right to know just how
nominees stand upon this most i'm
portant plank in the platforms Of all
parties.
There will be no attempt to bind
the candidates, nor to coerce them
nor in any way to embarass them
only a kindly but insistent inquiry az
to how they stand on their own
party's platform. The inquiries are
now going out from state headquar
ters at Morgantown.
