To the Voters Of Maine

Womanhood of this State is petitioning
for an active participation in the affairs
OF government. On Monday. Sept 10, you
Will be called upon to answer this chal-
lenge. Are the women of Maine as COM
petent as their Western sisters?"
In behalf of the members of the Maine
Woman's Christian Temperance Union,
appeal for your support Of This issue
Some OF the voters of this State have
held that the women are not prepared to
undertake the duties of voting While it
Is true that women should not be expect
ed to automatically and at once become
totally conversant with all of the ar
fairs related to the ballot, yet many of
the women have spent years in earnest
work which has prepared them for the
efficient discharge of this trust The
Maine W. c. 7. L. will bring to the cleo
torate of the State 5000 thoughtful women
with minds trained to the functions of
citizenship and with a grasp of the pro-
blems that now confront us as a State
and as an important integral part of the
nation.
Courageously have these women, and
all of the women of the State, helped bear
such burdens as have come in the past;
coura geously will they continue to dis
charge such duties as the future may
hold. They ask, however, that in all fair
ness and justice they may have an ex-
preston of opinion al the ballot box re-
garding the imposing of these duties.
Should not these women who render
the same obedience to all executive or
ders, who have the same vital interest in
all legislative action. who are held hv the
same judicial DEGREES as men, have the
same power in the determination of the
character of all these forms of govern
ment?
Today Maine mothers, like the mothers
Of yesterday, are bravely giving their
sons that "the government of the people
by the people and for the people shall not
perish from the face Of the earth" Yet,
in this government, they have no share,
Men Of Maine, as measure of justice,
doubly emphasized in nation of demo-
cratic ideals like our own as a measure
Of practical benefit in order that the
women Of the State, who have such vi
tai concern in, and a thorough under
standing Of our civic problems, may
have some share in their settlement, we
ask that suffrage be granted the women
of Maine on equal terms with men.
Vote YES on Sept TO-

Much is said of the burden" Of the
franchise if granted" or imposed
on the women: of the duty of wom-
en- to give at least as much service to
political affairs as they give to oppo-
sitior of taking up the burden, and sc
forth But nothing has been said that
We have heard or seen, concerning the
voters burden" on Monday next.
Political leaders representing every
party have stood up in our great con-
Ventions and pledged themselves and

Some of us at least, have honestly
believed in all those pledges and have

We are told on the streets that the

chemist, to investigate the matter OF
passing and shipping worthless am
munition to Gen. Pershing. Possibly
sucn a beard should be appointed, as
the inquiry will he technical, but
there should also be an investigation
of the bureau Of ordnance by Con-
gress. 1t is quite possible that the
roots of the defective ammunition
scandal r,:n much deeper than a
faulty inspection. Let the entire
bureau be overhauled. If it is clean
and sound the inquiry will not harm
it. IF it is anything but clean and
sound. if politics is more important
than careful inspection, or if incom-
petents are kept in important posts
because Of favoritisn. the public has
a right to know it and to apply the
remedy. The Post makes no charges
of any kind, because it has no evil
dence beyond that furnished by the
chief of the bureau himself: but it is
cutie apparent that public confidence
in the bureau Of ordnance will not be
restored until thorough investigation
has revealed all the facts.
'"This is an anXiuos moment in
thousan ds of American homes. 1t is
rot a time for censorship or conceal
ment of incompetence. Whoever was
responsible for approving worthless
ammunition must he put out Of his
place. and so far AS Vigilance can pro-
vide, there must he no more manu-
facture Of worthless ammunition, AT
Frankfort or anywhere else. This is
a matter that affects the lives of our
soldiers. the, integrity Of the army ard
the honor Of the American flag. A ilu-
initiating defeat after terrible disaster
might have been lthe consequence OF
snniing defective ammunition to
Pershins's army. The slightest at
tempt to evade a searching inquiry.
Under these circumstances. would

Ballots for Both
in the
Pine Tree State.

Thousands of men of Maine volun-
tariiy disenfranchise themselves every
election, state or national, by remain
ing away from the polls. It leaves no
room for adverse sentiment against
equal suffrage on the ground that the
women will not vote. even though they
have the right of franchise. Yet an
opposition argument in this campaign
is that there will be a large stay at
home vote should women be enfran-
chised, therefore they should not be
enfranchised. This same argument
may be used against the men, provid
ing one is willing to investigate more
| than one side of the question.
| In 1916 when interest was intensely
keen in national politics. Maine cast
for all presidential candidates 136,405
votes. That same year for Governor
Naine cast for all gubernatorial can
didates 150S43 votes. These figures
are from the World Almanac for 1917.
With these figures as basis one will
notice that 1443s men who were In
terested in the choice of the next Gov
ernor were not sufficiently interested
in the choice of the next President to
cast their vote for presidential electors.
| Still another little study in figures
is interesting. The United States CEN
sus for 1910 gives the number of males
of voting age in Maine as 235,727, al
lowing good margin for those not
eligible to vote and putting the eligi-
bles at $4,000, the number given by
politicians who are familiar with State
conditions, one has striking illustra-
ton of the stay-at-home vote. Com
pairing the number eligible to vote and
the number voting on President in
1915 and one has $685. men failing to
cast their vote Take the number elig-
ible to vote and the number voting for
Governor in 1915 and one has 42,157
men not casting a vote for their choice
for Governor.
An impartial investigation Of whether
or not the women OF the western
states avail themselves Of the privi-
lege Of voting will show that the wo-
men vote in the same proportion as
the men. It will also show that ex-
tending the suffrage to women in
creases the moral vote and that 1t
tends toward constructive. humani-
tartan legislation.
The Evening Sun Of New York City
one year sent out questionaire to all
the, full suffrage states to ascertain
for themselves three things:
Do women who have the vote vote?
What laws have their votes passed?
Is woman suffrage considered a Sue
cess by the states that have tried It?
To summarize,
This impartial inquiry brought out
these three answers:
Women who have tfe vote do vote.
Their ballot has passed a consider
able body of law.
The suffrage states are satisfied TO
have the women included In the cleo
torate because equal suffrage has
worked out successfully.

The Barney" Baruch Miracle.

War produces miracles, that we all
know now. 1t has regenerated France
and Serbia. 1t has transformed Rur-
STA. 1t has revealed America to her
self. Individually. too, war has its
miraculous things to boast of. In Eng
land we have seen a former house
servant raised to supreme command.
In Russia we have seen a peasant gen
eral defeat the best-trained of German
Istrategists. And now, in the United
States, we are about to witness another
attempt at the supernatural. In select
ing Barney" Baruch to superintend the
purchases of raw materials for the
Allies, Mr.. Wilson gives to a Wall
street bear" the task Of changing him
self from destructive to constructive
force. The process should be inter-
esting to watch.

the official admiss ,onyhat one-third
OF the small arms ammunition shipped
&c Gen. Pershing's army had been
found worthless is most disquieting
Until all the facts have been ascer-
tanned and published, the inevitable
effect of the partial disclosures will be
to arouse suspicion that more has
been concealed, that there are other
fatal flaws in army material 1t must
be admitted also, that the public has
some grounds for apprehending evil
conditions when the inspectors IN the
bureau Of ordnance are actually con-
victed by the ofiicial statement of the
CHEF Of ordnance of having placed an
immense quantity OF defective ammu-
milton on shipboard and started it for
France.
What defective material has al
ready reached France? What kind of
ammunition has been provided for the
artillery, Is it defective also7 What
conditions prevail at frankfort and
