EFFECT or THE NEWBERRY
VERDICT


AS the verdict in the case Of Sen
ator Newberry of Michigan is consid
cred more, the more good is expected
to come as a result of it. The Senator
says he is proud of the fact that the
record in this case contains nothing
of which need be ashamed No proof
of fraud bribery or other despicable
crime was produced" But neverthe-
less, says the Savannah News, he. was
convicted and sentenced to serve two
years in Leavenworth and pay a fine
of $4,000. The lesson is that a man
who stands for public office, any pub
lie office, should be as careful as man
may be to avoid even the suspicion of
of practices that are illegal even If
they may not deserve to be described
as fraud or bribery or despicable
There cannot be too fine sense OF
lawfulness on the part of men who as
pire to be members of the United
States Senate. And it makes for
greater respect for Senators as men
when there can be no ground for any
such suspicion and the public realizes
that there is no such suspicion.
1t may be said that no body Of legis-
lators in the world, or in history. had
better opportunity of establishing
itself as the very pick and cream of
lawmakers than the United States
Senate. It's members presumably are
the best qualified for their tasks of
all the men in the greatest country
on earth, and when one Of its mem
bers is thought by jury to be worthy
OF going to cell instead Of to the Sen
ate the effect ought to be to deter any
future aspirant for senatorial honors
from decending from the high plane on
which senatorial contests should be
fought It ought therefore to be both
cause of general chagrine that a Sen
ator of the United States has been
found guilty of unlawfulness enough
to be sentenced to serve a term in 4
Federal prison, and cause of general
satisfaction that even a United States
Senator, wealthy and powerful. is not
immune from arrest, conviction and
sentence if he departs from the letter
and spirit Of our laws, regardless of
whether he avoids the offenses with
harsher names like fraud and bribery.

might express their views for OF
against an amendment to the state
constitution which would empower
the women to vote, this amendment
to be voted upon subsequently. Bun
the legislature not only showed itself
opposed to suffrage, but went beyond
all bounds by refusing to allow the
men whom the legislature represent
ed to say whether or not they wanted
the suffrage amendment submitted
to the people.
This does not go to prove tie truth
of the Times assertion that where
there has been doubt, the men have
given the women the benefit of it.
Some men are absolutely hopeless
on the suffrage question. They speak
Of suffrage as though it might be a
within or a fad.
But suffrage is here and it Is here
to stay. The wise man is the man
who urges his woman-kind to vote;
who seeks to include in his wife or
his sweetheart a reverence for the bal
lot, who urges upon her to vote, as a
sacred duty to her state and her ns-
ton.
| Unless the men Of his state take
suffrage seriously, unless they urge
upon the good women of this state
to use the ballot, under the grace of
God, woe be to Florida, in the years
| that are before it.
| At a great suffrage convention in
Washington, at the time that Mrs
Carrie Chapman Gait succeeded DR.
Anna Howard Shaw as president of
/ the American Woman's Suffrage As
ISOLATION, Mrs. Cats reminded the
women present that the great need
was to educate the women to the inn
portance of suffrage. Mrs. Cats realiz-
ed that when suffrage at last came, a
great part of the world would be IN
prepared for it. And she urged that
we help to teach women the use of her
vote If the men of this country will
heed that advice, we may wrest the
south from the mis-rule which is now
with us.
If they throw their influence against
the women of the state voting, then
will suffrage may indeed prove two
edged sword.
What we want to do is to face facts
The vote is here. Suffrage is knock
ing at the door of every woman for
admittance. May God forgive any
woman who refuses to cast her ballot
for right and justice when the hour
strikes. and her nation calls.-Celia
Myrover Robinson in Pensacola Jour
nal.
