welcome end is confidently believed
near at hand, for human bone. and

so that their utmost endeavors fail,
as at Ypres and Verdun. then the
German and Austrian people will
know that the supreme test has come
and they have lost. They must know
that they can never win. They must
know that no such force can. within
generation, be massed by the war
masters. They must know that while
their herculean effort had been held
by the allied forces now on the west
ern front, these forces are to be rap
idly augmented and supplemented BY
millions of men and guns from Am

Believing that Germany is taking
the chances of last and desperate
plunge in the hope of crushing her
foe before the weight of America is
felt, the allied forces are accepting
this as the decisive moment" in
confidence of ultimate victory and as
the last great battle of the war.
Let us calmly await the decision,
but remembering that if this is NOT
the decisive moment" then it IS Am

The Senate Vote

With no small degree of the inter-
est with which it watches the out
come of a great battle between
armies in Europe, this country is
now awaiting the verdict of the L.
=. Senate on the federal suffrage
amendment. Friends of the measure
are confident of victory but are
anxious 20 secure every vote. 1t is
hard to understand the attitude Of
certain senators who fully realize
that negative action means only de-
lay in cause of freedom. They
know they cannot kill or even halt
the movam,dnt. but they can embar-
rass the opponents of some of their
friends who are welded to the mar

to affect civilization for generations
to come
1t would seem that men could no
longer hold themselves to the narrow
limits Of mans superior rights"
when the nation is giving its life
blood anil treasure for democracy
fighting fer the rights and equalities
of millions of illiterates in Europe
and Asia, yet refusing equality to
the highest moral and intellectual
citizenry ir the world.
That - the par, of some of our
United States senators. What shall
we say II them and to them?
in the course of his address in the
Senate, Mr.. Calder said:
Incidentally, it was a man from
the DISTINGUISHED class. poor boy,
who came to New York with but a
few dollars in his pocket, Horace
Greeley, ,vho affected more than any
other individual in the country the
vote that through the election Of
Abraham Lincoln led to the enamel
patton of the slave. Rhodes the his
torian, tells us that possibly one half
who voted for Lincoln probably had
at one time Tor another come under
the influence of Horace Greeley-a
single personal influence such as this
country had never seen, an influence
that was used always for democracy,
an influence that came purely out of
democracy. the greatest single in
fluence in the freedom Of the slaves.
the third great triumph of democracy
in this country.
1T is interesting, too. that though
he lived l., time when the women's
rights movement was considered a
jest and he died long before it had
assumed serious proportions, Horace
Greeley battled with the same
earnestness and wrote with the same
genius in behalf of the rights of
woman .hat had distinguished his
wonderful fight for abolition and for
more democratic country.
There are those who claim that
this is no time to consider the ques-
ton Of woman suffrage: but the
question Of suffrage at this time is
not only :. right to woman, but it is
also question Of wartime efficiency
for country struggling in the throes
Of this great world war.
There are those who say, too, that
women DO not want the vote: that
when thy have the vote they do not
use it.
The ..lct that women do want the
vote was proved by the signatures of
the 1,033,S0 women now in the pos
session Of the New York State
Woman Suffrage party.
THAT ome.l who have the vote
used it is evinced by the fact that in
no suffrage state has suffrage ever
been regretted or revoked after it
once was given to women; that in
every suffrage state labor legislation
has advanced, not in tremendous,
overwhelming strides, perhaps, but
yet with steady and parallel growth
in each state, which shows that the
women who have the vote use it to
the best of their ability, use it to help
conditions In the home. in the school,
in the moral life of the community,
in those developments Of community
lite which are particularly womens
