One PLANK ONLY IN
THE PLATFORM OF
SUFFRAGETTES
~votes For Women" Is All That Suf>
frage Association Is Interested
In, Says Contributor.

Inc NdIOudl HulSllSdh "OihoA
Suffrage Association and all the State
and County Suffrage Leagues, of
which it is composed, are not party or
CARNATIONS. The Platform Of the
Suffrage organizations has but one
plank: Votes for Women In practi-
cal politics the Suffrage organizations
have but one function-to secure can
didates in all parties, Democratic, Re-
publican, Socialist, or what-not, who
will vote for Suffrage measures. When
they succeed in getting a suffrage
candidate in all parties or fail of get
ting suffrage candidate in any par
ty, their work for that particular cleo
ton Is finished. The members Of the
organizations are then free to support
the candidate and party of their
choice.
If the Suffrage organizations sue
coed in getting suffrage candidate
in one party and fail in getting a suf-
frage candidate in another or other
parties, as organizations it is their
business to help elect the suffrage
candidate. This is perfectly good
logic, perfectly good patriotism, per-
fectly good craftsmanship.
The power of the ballot to elect Of
fcers and promote measures is of
greater value than the results of any
one particular election just as the pos
session of an ak is of more value than
the chopping of any one piece Of wood,
The possession of the tool is of great
er value than the doing of any one spe-
cial piece of work with the tool.
Suffrage First" is the motto of the
Suffrage organizations. Having the
ballot, women will proceed as other
intelligent human beings do, to secure
with it those things which seem most
conductive to the general welfare.
1t was in pursuance Of this 80 year
old policy of the National American
Woman Suffrage Association that the
suffragists of Mason County recently
asked three candidates for Represen-
tative to state their position on the
suffrage question. One of the Demo-
cratic candidates declined to answer
the letter, broke an engagement for
an interview and lodged every chance
for an interview.
The successful candidate says that
he did not answer the letter because
the women would not have been
pleased with his answer; because they
had no right to ask the question; be-
cause it is mems business to run the
government; because woman's place
is the home; because it is no concern
Of Mason County women who is sent
from Mason County to the General As
sembly of Kentucky.
He now says that they had no right
to ask the question at the time 1t was
asked because it was done for the pur-
pose Of "intimidating the candidates"
How could any one have been intimi-
dated to the advantage of the other
when all three were aswed the same
question at the same time? Is a citi-
zen "intimidating a candidates." when
he asks the candidate to state his po-
sition on major issue? Why do we
send men to the Legislative Halls I'M
less 1t is to represent us? And how
shall we know whether they represent

That is the only term which
can really describe Mr.. Edison's
wonderful phonoSraph. For it
really creates music anew. It does
more than merely reproduce music like

Yes, that Is wonderful. But it took
no less senius than Thomas A, Ed,-
