2. Because it is just as a protec-
ton to her special interest, as tax

pie. Some, however, think that the
vote of the bad women will offset
that of the good, but this has been

SHALL WE GRANT WOMAN THE
BALLOT?

One of the important questions be-
fore our nation today is, should wo-
men be allowed to vote? The move
ment toward the affirmative an
swer of this question has of late re-
eeived such an impetus that it has
awakened worldwide interest.
1t seems to me that the period of
debating the question is past and
that the granting of the ballot to wo-
men merely awaits fuller information
on the part of the people.
1 believe that we should enfran-
chise women because l know of no
logical argument for not doing so.
whereas there are many logical rea-
sons for equal suffrage.
Woman's manifest equality with
man in all of those respects relative

her long years of faithful service for
the common good, together with the
principles of democracy, should en-
title her to this privilege and power.
There are those who maintain that
the right to vote would diminish wo-
mems wholesome influence. This
view, however, is dropped when the
matter is once carefully examined.
What are the things that make
women influential? They are char
acter, goodness, beauty, tact. talent,
good manners and money. Enfran>
chisement need not in the least rob
women of these things, and in ad-
dition she will have the power Of the
ballot.
With the power Of the ballot We
believe that women will better the
conditions which surround their
children at home and in school. They
see these conditions from a some
what different viewpoint to man, ana
if given the better opportunity VIII
make advances that men have not

THE sHERIFF's ENDORSEMENT.

THE SHERlEF'S ENDORSEMENT.
Editor of "The Lancaster News:
Since so much is said in regard to
Woman Suffrage" pro and con,
desire to go on record as being in
favor of allowing every decent white
woman in these United States the
privil ege of voting. L am aware
that there are men who disagree
with me on this subject 1 have
heard some of them say that a wo-
mans place is at home. In this I
agree with them, but l believe she
should be allowed the right of suf-
frage, and thus be as free to discuss
politics, and to work at the ballot
box for the betterment of her coun-
try as her husband, son or brother. It
has been said that women in remote
sections could not get to the polls:
every good, law-abiding man fixes a
way for his women folks to go to
church, and, of course. some way
could also be arranged for them to
go to the voting precincts. Good
fathers are making more effort now
/ than ever in the past to educate their
daughters. And today women are
reading more than ever before. and
are becoming better posted on busi-
ness matters. Years ago some men
thought it useless to educate their
daughters, particularly as their
sphere would be principally to keep
house, wash clothes, cook and sew:
in fact, their life was practically that
of maid-of-all hard work. But the
time has come when good and sensi-
BILE men realize that it is just as i'm
portant to educate their daughters as
their sons

Cd The fitness of the average
woman for suffrage is not inferior to
that OF the average man; morally
she is superior to man, and in those
governmental matters which must be
subjected to moral tests, her judg-
ment would greatly aid in their
proper solution. In all these mat
ters of government appertaining to
health, education, social justice. civic

specially fitted for helpful advice ana

make her services efficient and whole

and in the church, would necessarily
constitute a great power for good to
the State if her will could find ex-
preston in the ballot box.
