WILSON AND THE
woMAN'S PARTY.
BY Clara Shortridge

BY Clara Shortridge FoltZ.
One would think that American
women suffragists were Amazonian
warriors instead of students OF civic
problems, philosophers and gentle
women.
The recent performance OF certain
self-appointed undisciplined women
who broke the rule of congress and
insulted the President OF the United
States Is not the standard of those who
follow and revere the names OF Susan
B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton.
Lille Deveraux Blake, Julia Ward
Howe. Carrie Chapman Gait, president
OF the National Woman Suffrage Asso-
ciation. Ida Hustled Harper, Rev. Anna
II. Shaw and Abigail Scott Deenaway.
These names stand as beacon lights.
These women are eNemplars of Ameri'
can womanhood; these truly represent
the woman suffrage cause.
II these excellent women will pause
and think seriously they will see clear
ly that their acts cannot promote the
success OF the suffrage cause, that
their methods are inexcusable and un
warranted in the presence of congress
and in view Of the President. Every
such public act as that performed AT
the opening OF the present session OF
congress is wholly at variance with
the ideas, precepts, and examples OF
the wise women of the land.
Such conduct has reasonably RAISED
up opposition to a just cause which
the majority of American statesmen
recognize and which they propose Il
vote for when they get ready. Jus
now and for some weeks to come tn
American people are looking to con
gress for just and wise Legislation
upon the most momentous problem
that ever confronted the nation. Ma
tiona land international question
press for solution and congress dar
not fail TO perform its duty to human
ty here and now.
And good ladies. why all this rud,
ness. or what avail is all this ban
bast? OF what combination of era
matter is that which leads gently bre
women TO violate all conventional rule
OF polite assemblages? Women of n
class nor of any party or club or soci
ty can ever be excused for thus di
porting themselves. Such action W.
not directed nor approved by any W
man worth while. Rather II was Il
act OF a few who have been travelir
so far and so frequently from the
homes and their proper enyironmCl
that they have forgotten the poll
amenities OF organized society, lost q
sense OF proportion and overlooked Il
necessity OF poise and dignity.
And more, such action in no rcspe
nor degree represents the woman 81
fragists Of California any more than
does the woman of New York or
any other state. The twelve suifral
states each won their cause BY pu

leaders OF the movement. The feder

lowing the same high curse. II will /
