MISS OF MONTANA.
By DIR. FRANK CRANE.

When Miss Jeanette Rankin of Missoula, Montana, takes her
seat in the National House of Representatives among 434 men, it will
he a sight for men and angels.
1t will be an act symbolic of the progress Of the human race.
The nation will watch her as the fond mother watches her baby
take it's first step.
1t will be as significant as when the first black man cast his vote.
Or Luther uttered his protest in the Diet of Worms.
Or the teacher called to order the children in the first public
school in the United States.
Or the French people said good-by to their last King.
Or the last witch was hanged.
Or the last hereto was roasted.
Or the last man imprisoned for debt.
Or the first telegram sent over the land, or the first cablegram
under the ocean, or the first wireless message through space.
"The world do move,' and when Miss Rankin takes her place
in the legislative body Of the greatest nation on earth, you can almost
see said world start forward like an automobile when the driver
throws in the clutch.
Carlyle called Dante ''the voice of ten silent centuries Miss
Rankin will be the voice of forty.
The incident will be another mark of democracy coming of age,
the entrance of one-half of the citizens into conscious self government.
It will mean one half Of the population emerging from homage.
It will signify the triumph Of reason over prejudice and petrifed
custom.
It will indicate that the day is approaching when the woman and
the child shall assume their rightful prominence in the eye Of govern
ment, and that lawmakers shall turn their minds to education, to
public health, and to human welfare, to something else besides
swords and pocketbooks.
In the sea of democracy woman shall no more dwell upon an
island of disfranchisement.
And the sonorous saying of the judicious Hooker shall take on
new meaning, that "of law no less can be said than that all things
in heaven and earth do her homage-the very least as feeling her
care, and the greatest as not exempted from her power.'

OUR EDITION..

The Courant takes pleasure this week in presenting it's Wom-
ans Suffrage edition. This edition should have been published
during the last week in February-NorthD akota's equal suffrage
week-but owing to a lack Of sufficient help, the project had to
be postponed.
Woman suffrage is now a reality in North Dakota and at the
next general election women of voting age will participate in Sc
lectlng most of the important officers. Complete franchise will
unquestionably come as soon as the people of the state have been
permitted to vote upon the constitutional amendment passed by
the late assembly.
The advent of woman's suffrage is of tremendous importance
to the people of North Dakota. 1t means practically the doubling
of the vote. It means the advent of a tremendous influence and
power in the electorate of the state that will have to be reckoned
with. 1t means, also, that North Dakota, progressive in all things,
has emancipated her women and no longer classes the sex with
jmbeciles, idiots and criminals-the only other classes denied
the franchise.
It is idle to dlate upon the justice and the desirabHity of the
charge. This is becoming so universally recognized that, once the
prejudice born of long usage is removed and the influence of cor
rupt politicians is wrested away, it will become universal in the en-
tire civilized world, where woman is looked upon as mans help
meet, and not his intellectual inferior.
The federal "bone dry" law goes into effect as soon as the
president has affixed his signature to the bill. Do your Christ
mas shopping early.

THE BOTTINEAU COURANT, BOTTINEAU, NORTH DAKOTA
EQUAL SUFFRAGE.

In announcing his decision to vote for equal suffrage in New
York, Secretary McAdoo said: "The American women have made
a game fight and a fair fight for suffrage, and are entitled to win"
To which the New York Times, ardent antisuffragist, replies:
THAT is, SOME American women. How many of them in New
York are suffragistsw
Now this is an example of the preposterous quantity of sur
plusage and folly there is in the debate on this question.
It might be interesting as a matter of statistics to know what
proportion of the women of New York or any other state wish to
one way or the other:
If it is wrong for women to vote, it is none the less wrong if
every woman in the land wishes the ballot.
If it is wrong for women to vote, it is none the less wrong if
a few of them desire the ballot-or if none at all desire it.
Was it said, when the march towards the democratic ideal
reached the point where it was proposed to have universal man.
hood suffrage instead of property and class suffrage, that few
propertyless men wanted to vote? Very likely, almost certainly
that was said then. But it wasn't an argument against universal
male suffrage, was it?
Democracy is rule of the people. Women are people. There
fore women should vote.
When women vote no harm will be done, nor will the millennium
be nagcally created. The ballot should not be given the women
simply because they want it, or withheld from them simply because
not all of them or even not many of them want it. Neither should
it be given them solely for the good it is hoped they will do, nor
withheld solely because of the harm it is feared they may do.
The ballot should be given to women because democracy is
our ideal, because democracy means rule of the people, and be-
cause our democracy is incomplete until all the people-including
it's responsibilities, it's duties and it's privleges.-Devils Lake
Journal.
The Grand Forks Herald has the endorsement of Matt John
son, who says it's "cartoons are timely and convey a lot that could
not be said in words" Most assuredly true. North Dakota has a
libel law that would cover the case if reduced to specific utter
ances.

Considerable matter was crowded out Of our last weeks is
sue for lack of space. While a little late, most Of this is being
published this week. With it's rapidly increasing patronage and
its extensive county news service, the Courant may find it neces-
sary to increase in size to twelve or sixteen pages a week, in Or
der to live up to it's determination of publishing all news of Bot
tineau county while it is news.
In order to extend his Influence for good" Matt johnson has
been writing scathng anti-eague communications from Bismarck
for the Bottineau County News, the Westhope Standard the Ant
Ter American and the Rugby Tribune. Is Matt going to all this
work and expense for the "good of the cause" Or it possible that
he is commerciaGzing his antagonism of the farmers?
Falky wants the farmers to buy Equity stock and build their
own terminal elevators. Since when did the News man become
such an ardent advocate of the Equity? Perhaps it would be en-
Tightening to rummage back in the files and %re-publish some Of
the nice things he said of the late Geo. LOTUS and the organiza-
ton of which he was manager.
The Bottneau News man orders his subscribers to "come
across" as the high price of print paper is keeping him awake
nights. But why worry? If he continues aping the Grand
Forks Herald in fighting the farmers he will have very little
print paper to buy after a few weeks.
The nearly five hundred farmer stockholders of the Courant
are referred to by Falky as the socialist gang of Bottineau coun-
ty:" This is the same gang that has been wearing out Fanky's
doorstep during the winter, to tell him that they would like to try
worrying along without the News.
The Omemee Herald insists that it advocates the same "prin-
ciples" now that it advocated for twelve years. Evidently a ty-
biographical error. You meant twelve months, didn't you, Matt?
Faky is proud of the fact that the Courant classified him
with Lo Garden and Matt Johnson. Perhaps we should have ex-
planned that we did not mean Intellectually.
