FOR WOMAN SUFFRAGE

To the Editor of The Dispatch:
Self government is right common
to all intelligent adults both men and
women. The right of representation
is not a privilege conferred by the
state, it is fundamental right. Ali
normal human beings have an in
herent right to voice in the gov
eminent whose laws they must obey;
the state may deny the exercise of
that right, or may confer the liberty
Of exercising that right, but the right
itself is neither a gift nor a privilege.
Where did men get their right to
self-government? Was it given to
them? Most assuredly not. From
whom did the first group of men who
made laws and entered into an agree
ment for mutual protection, from
who did this first group of organized
society get its authority? Did the
Revolutionary fathers have no right
to sef-government until October,
1881?
Our forefatherS fought for the privi-
lege of exercising their right of self
government but the right itself was
theirs long before they won the right
to exercise it.
The denial of representation is a
denial of right; the women of the
United States have suffered from this
deprivation for one hundred and forty
years; sex prejudice has retarded but
cannot always defeat Justice

SUCCESS DEFINED.
from the Dawson News:

From the Dawson News:
A woman wrote the prize essay il
Kansas paper, in which she tells
what success is. She draws a noble
picture and here it is:
"TIe has achieved success who has
lived well, laughed often and loved
much; who has gained the respect Of
intelligent men, and the love of little
children; who has filled his niche
and accomplished his task; who has
left the world better than he found it
whether by an improved poppy, pei
feet poem or rescued soul; who has
never lacked appreciation of earth's
fine beauty, or failed to express it;
who has always looked for the best
in others and given the best he had
whose life was an inspiration, whose
memory a benediction"

Let not the girls OF America, be
unduly disturbed because the soldiers
of the Army of Occupation are flood

inquiries as to whether they will be
permitted to marry German girls.
There are thousands Of citizens in
this country who think a sounder
thrashing should be administered to
the Germans than what they got
This sentiment is perhaps very strong

Is There a
Santa Claus?
Classic Answer OF q Nexs
York Journalist A6irn1ing
q Little Girls Belief

NE Of the finest things ever
Ih written about Christmas was
the editorial printed 20 years
y ago by the New York Sun in
answer to the earnest appeal Of little
New York girl to be told whether
Santa Claus really exists. Its author,
Frank p. Church, was an accomplished
journalist and wrote much on many
subjects, but his fame will rest chiefly
on this beautiful setting forth Of an
eternal truth. With DR.. Clement Clarke
Moore's "A Visit From st. Nicholas
1t is one of the great classics OF the
Christmas season.
The answer to the eternal question
as printed In the Sun follows:
1--WE take pleasure in answering at
once, and thus prominently, the COM
munication below, expressing at the
same time our great qualification that
its faithful author is numbered among
the friends Of the Sun:
Some OF my little friends say there Is
no Santa Claus. Papa says: II you
see II in the Sun it's SO. Please tell
me the truth; is there a Santa Claus?

virginia, your little friends are
wrong. They have been affected by
the skepticism Of skeptical age. They
do not believe except they see. They
think that nothing can be which is not
comprehensive by their little minds.
All minds, Virginia. whether they be
mems or children's, are little. In this
great universe of ours man Is mere
insect, an ant, In his intellect, as com
pared with the boundless world about
him, as measured by the intelligence
capable Of grasping the whole truth
and knowledge.
Eyes, Virginia, there Is a Santa
Claus. He exists as certainly as love
and generosity and devotion exist, and
you know that they abound and give
to your life It's highest beauty and joy.
Aiasi How dreary would be the world
II there were no Santa Claus II would
be as dreary as IF there were no Vir-
ginias. There would be no childlike
faith then. no poetry. no romance, to
make tolerable this existence. We
should have no enjoyment except In
sense and sight. The eternal light with
.which ,chlldhood flls the world would
be extin9uished. =.
