tiful blue field of Love, has waved and
is waving for everyone of His chill
dren, the message of freedom and
democracy. and His people, from the
-four corners of the earth" have
found a resting place and home I'M
der its folds.
In view of Mrs Gladden's argu-
ments opposing equal suffrage, the
foreign element" etc, l am wonder
ing what she means when she says,
Let us be Americans" The Indian
is the original American. Does she
mean Let US be Indians" and scalp
all those who come to settle among
us?
A word about that terrible bette
noire, the bad woman in politics,
which seems to brighten Mrs. Glad
den so much.
In Illinois the influence is so negli-
gible we seldom think of it. But if it
were an influence, what has that to do
with the right of woman to vote?
In the Bible, in the Book of John,
the story is told of woman taken in
sin and brought by the Pharisees be-
fore Jesus, demanding to know what
sentence He would pronounce upon
her, and saying that their laws de-
manded she be stoned. Jesus reply
was, Let him who has not sinned cast
the first stone" The story ends by
saying that one by one they went
away. from the greatest unto the
least According to this story, the
woman was decidedly outclassed in
numbers by the men. Would any
man be willing TO relinquish his right
to vote because some bad men have
| the same privilege? Decidedly not.
/ might add, Jesus didn't scorn the
woman, but told her to go and sin no
| more. Mrs. GLADDEN. admits He was
the "One perfect man." and so He
| was-"Onr Way Shower" why not fol-
low Him He also said to the Scribes
| and Pharisees, who thanked God they
were not like other men, and were al
ways loudly proclaiming their good
ness, that even the "Publicans and
, Harlots" would enter the Kingdom of
Heaven before they would.
The women OF ;he West are CRATE
full that the winds which sweep our
! crate fields of corn and wheat have
swept away prejudices, made up of
silly traditions and cramped views,
and have made place for each ndi-
viduaI to grow and express Liberty
and Justice The expression of these
qualities by the woman's vote is puri-
| flying politics, is raising the standards
of men, and giving our children and
all children the best chance they
| have ever had in every way.
We women of the West confidently
await the comforting of the ballot by
J the men of Maryland upon the women
| of Maryland, thereby proving their
faith in the Grand Old Maryland
Stock" as represented by their
women.

MONEY WILL NOT BUY
EVERYTHING.

One day n man decided to free him
self from his soul until he should
achieve his fortune and satisfy his am
bition. Then" he unused to himself,
when | have leisure to indulge my
soul and through it to enjoy the beau
ties of the world, will take it to
myself again" So he selected an un-
frequented spot in the woods and there
in the soft, rich loan he buried his
soul, covering it carefully with earth
and leaves and the boughs of trees.
Then he returned to the city, where
he became rich and powerful. Neither
sunset nor sunrise, nor the sweet
voiced birds, nor the freshness of the
summer rains. nor the marvellous
paintings, nor lofty poems, nor even
the melody of an old tender song that
might have carried recollections OF
the long ago, delayed him now or
turned him aside from his quest for
even one fleeting moment. His eyes
were fixed on gold; his mind was in
tent on power and place But after a
while he grew satiated with the things
of this material old world; his sur
roundings became stale, fiat and I'M
profitable; there was something miss
ing-there was a void in the midst of
plenty. Then he bethought himself of
his soul and journeyed to the little
mound where he had buried ii so long
ago. He saw no beauty now in the
sky, nor any fragrance in the wooded
landscape The singing of the birds
was but an unmeaning sound in his
ear. and the thousand little things
that once would have charmed and
delighted his senses were passed by
unnoticed. He found the little mound
which he had rounded up over his bet
ter self years ago. 1t was as he had
left II. He carefully removed the
leaves and brush and earth, thinking
to uncover his soul He found, in
stead. only shriveled thing which
turned to ashes at his touch. His soul
was dead

STILL KEEP THE COLLAR.

For years and years. men have been
uttering threats against the starched
collar Beginning early in childhood
and continuing down through the days
of the obstreperous collar button even
to tottering old age, men have been
wont to declare that they only wore
collars because they had to-because
a cruel and relentless fate in the
shape of clothing designers had COM

But it is not so The war has

peculiar style of beauty.

The Question of Dances-Is Quite De
batable, Says Correspondent.


batable, Says Correspondent.
Editor, Evening Capital:
1t is only fair to call your attention
to the fact that you have been made
the innocent medium for conveying an
untrue impression regarding the Joint
Meeting of the Executive COMMITTEES
and Advisory Board on Monday
evening.
The startling headlines, which can
result only in causing outsiders to
think that Annapolis of the present is
belstedly copying San Antonio of q
yesr ago, could be justified only by
considerable and specific evidence. 1t
is betraying no confidence to say that
the material presented at the meeting
was far too meagre to warrant that
conclusion.
But it is the implication, in fact the
assertion that the dances conducted in
the Armory are associated with and
foster immortality that is so unfortu-
nately unjust. Some of these dances
were conducted Dy the Recreation
Committee, and the women who super
vised them it would be- presumpuous
either to defend or praise. One can
but express regret for the feelings
they must have in seeing their efforts
included in so sweeping a condemna-
tion.
recognize that the entire question
of dancing, when so many of the dan
GERS must necessarily be strangers. Is
quite debatable; so have no lament
in that my own vote was cast with the
losing side.
Your report of the meeting includes
The statement that proof was furnish
ed that the women of Annapolis are
more keenly alive to conditions" than
the men. For one, am quite willing
to acknowledge the fact; but the
meeting itself neither proved nor IL
Illustrated it. This, while very
minor point, does illustrate the fact
that the account of the meeting fur
nished to the Capital should have been
considered with the care the subject
deserved.

The Spirit OF America Is Freedom

The Spirit OF America Is Freedom
For All.
Mr.. Editor:-As a registered voter
and native of the Middle West, 1
would like to say few words in be-
half CT those "mongrel suffrage
States" and people, so heroically at
tackled recently by Mrs. Thomas Glad
den, through your paper. The lady
seems to question their patriotism, for
one thing.
The patriotism of the "mongrel suf-
frage state" of Illinois was demon
strated very clearly by the fact that it
led all other States in recruiting for
the present war, not only in numbers,
but in time. Nor has the Middle West
or West ever lacked for good states
men or good military men, among
whom might be mentioned Grant
Sherman, Lincoln, Mckinley and
numerous others, and at present is
furnishing it's full share. Perhaps
Mrs GLADDEN. may also recall that the
prominent artists of the United States,
when called upon a few years ago to
decide upon type, typical of the
American woman, chose the woman of
the Middle West, giving as the reason
that on account of her location she
had been freer from foreign influ-
ence" than all others and had deveI-
oped physically and mentally into the
American ideal of womanhood. This
does not bear out Mrs. Gladden's
statement of the tremendous foreign
population of the West
The spirit of America is Freedom
for All, and is so recognized by the
Western man and woman, therefore,
the Western man when asked by the
Western woman to grant them the
freedom to express their wishes by
ballot, as TO who should make our
laws and what those laws shall be,
willingly have given them the right to
do so. The only unwilling ones are
the liquor dealers and machine poll
ticians-the liquor men, because the
women are voting the States for pro-
hibition, and the machine politicians
because they find women's votes are
not machine made"
/ am not sure that / understand Mrs.
Gladden's definition of ''mongrel," but
we of the West have an idea that per-
haps God might be capable of making
some Grand Old Stock" in some
other sections of this country and of
the world, as we'll as in Maryland, and
that perhaps He loves the Slav, the
Jew, the Norwegian, the English, Irish,
Scotch and French, as much. or near
ly as much, as the G. o. S. of Mary
land. In fact we are indebted to the
Jew for the Christian religion.
We of the West thank God with all
our hearts that our dear flag, with
its white stars of Hope. on the beau

proper places for young people to
meet under proper supervision, there
sity of going in dark corners and by
ways TO satisfy their natural craving
of young women and young men for
the society of each other.
AT the meeting held last night the
majority of those who voted to do
away with future dances were abso
lutely unfamiliar with conditions at
the dances under discussion, nor did
they have a representative of their
family present at either dance but de-
pended on the statements of those
whose ideas are such that apparently
they do not approve of dancing of any
description, as they could not or
| would not distinguish between public
and private affairs.
If the public could know of the ex-
pressions of appreciation by the men
who were allowed the society of re-
| fined people for the first time since
| leaving home, they would have the
| feeling of satisfaction that the women
who engineered the dances have of
| knowing what happiness had been
| given, irrespective of the misdirected
moral efforts on the part of some
| whose breadth of vision is too narrow
to appreciate it.
