Women Can Vote in All States,

From the New York World.
With the adoption of the woman sue-
frage amendment, former President Taft
holds that the right of women to vote in
every state is clearly established with
out state legislation. He dismisses as
without merit the contention that af-
firmaive action by the states is neces-
sary. Nowhere Is it needed.
In tine case of the 18th amendment,
Mr.. Taft recalls, the United States su-
preme court ruled that, being para
mount to the state law and q part OF
the state law, 1t annulled the discrim-
mating word white and thus left him
0he negro in the enjoyment Of the same
right as white persons" He therefore
says of the 18th amendment, now rati-
fed by the legislature OF Tennessee as
the 36th state:
1T is self-executing. 1t by its own
force amends every election law Of every
state SO as to include in the state cleo
torate women as we'll as men where only
men were given the right to vote before.
OF course a woman cannot vote who II
she had been q man could not have voted
under the laws of the state where she
lives. She must in all respects have the
qualifications which men voters must

BY enti-suffragists who have planned

Of creating further delay, this view Of
the situation will be ungratefully re-
ceived. There are states where steps
are threatened to hold women in condi-
ton OF observation-disclosures in spite of the
ratification of the suffrage amendment.
On this subject Mr.. Taft offers sound
advice. He says:
It follows that under these circum-
stances any state official who is part of
the election machinery and attempts to
amendment duly proclaimed by the sec
rotary Of state as adopted is invalid and
thus block action in voting under it, will

Cost of Double-Crossing.

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
G. H. Force, citizen of Missouri, who
had ambitions which led him to become
candidate for congress from the 10th
Missouri district, which ambitions were
not concurred in by his fellow citizens,
has filed most Illuminating account
narrating his expenses in the democrat
c primaries. Mr.. Force evidently placed
much dependence upon the political pos
sibilities of the ladies of his state, for
one of the most entertaining of the items
tells how he paid 81 for "a pair of open
work hose for plump widow" he sa-
pient comment accompanying the note

But there were other interesting items.
One> charge was for facial adornment
for male voter, being used in paying
for the trimming up of the sandy whis-
kers of an influential son Of Erin. the
amount being the same as that paid for
the face cream. Mr.. Forces experiences
appear to have engendered an unseemly
pessimism. He admits paying SO cents
postage on letters sent to influential
men in the district, telling them that he
was trusting his election to the kind
ness of the people 81 the mercy OF
God" and bitterly ado8 that both

Mr.. Force should cheer up. There are

A Contrast.
From the Milwaukee Journal.

Senator Harding also spoke for
Americanism and deprecated any tend
ency Of Americans to regard themselves
as citizens Of the world dispatch
from Marion.
II have often inquired OF myself what
great principle or idea II was that kept
this confederacy SO long together. It
was not the mere matter of separation
OF the colonies from the motherland,
but that sentiment in the Declaration
of Independence which gave liberty not
alone to tie people 0: this count-E- but
hope to all the world for all Future
time. 1t was that which gave promise
that in due time the weights should be
lifted from the shoulders Of all men.
and that all should have ar equal
chance. This IS the sentiment en-
bodied in the Declaration Of Independ-
ence."-Abraham Lincoln. at ndepend-
ence hall, 1861.

Hay on the Senate.

Firm the New York World
II Senator Harding is interested in q
real criticism of the United States Sen
ate, particularly in respect to its rela-
uon 10 the treaty making power, he
need not concern himself with Presi-
dent Wilson or with Governor Coz. He
can turn to John Hay. himself an Ohio
republican. who was once private sec
Rotary to President Lincoln and after
ward secretary of state in the cabinet
OF President Mckinley. In discussing
the foreign relations Of the United
States after the ratification Of the
treaty of peace with Spain, Mr.. Hay
said:
"a treaty Of peace in any normal state
unanimity In "a hours. They wasted
six weeks In wrangIns over this one,
and ratified 1t with one vote to spare.
W., we nave five or six matters now pend
orably and advantaeeously to our side,

Senate that not one Of these treaties, II
negotiated, will pass the Senate.

Harding so deeply deplores had taken

ed: ITO such monstroms, shape has the
original mistake of our constitution
- wv SSS'NSiSI VI OuT pOIItCSs''
The battle for progressive govern
ment In the&Jnited States for 100 years
has been lh0the main a succession Of
conflicts with the Senate. The Senate
was the citadel of slavery. 1t was
afterward the citadel of the most arro-
CANT and vulgar plutocfacy. NAT ever
existed in a civilized country. 1t is
still the citadel of every form Of special
privilege that is intriguing for what
Governor Cox calls IAN underhold in
government"
When it's abuses became intolerable
the American people took from the state
legislatures the power to Elect senators,
but the fundamental evil still remains
that the Senate as whole is irrespon-
sible and cannot be compelled as body
to give an accounting of it's steward
ship.
The House of Representatives is COM
PEELED to go before the country every
two years. The president must go be-
fore the country every four years. The
Senate never goes before the country.
1t is never possible in any election, ex-
cept as a vacancy here or there may
have occurred, to hale more than one
third Of the senators before the bar
of public opinion. In consequence the
Senate has so arrogated to itself the
legislative power of the government
that the House Of Representatives is
little better than a rubber stamp. Hav-
ing seized the legislature power it is
now trying to seize the executive power.

WOMAN so OLD
GOD FORGETS?
Antoinette Smith, 1OS, Asserts
Her Age Is Burden.


SPRINGFIELD, H., May 15.-Illinois'
oldest woman--Mrs. Antoinette Smith,
aged 10s years wants to know II God
has forgotten her.
She believes He has, for she wants to
die To her life is a trial.
On the day before she celebrated her
10Sth birthday, April IS, Mrs. Smith
said:
God has forgotten I'm here"
The woman's history is an interesting
one. 1t dates back to 1912 when she
was born on the island of Madeira, near
Portugal.
Mrs. Smith is a Portuguese. Before
her marriage her name was Alves. When
a child the family, through persecution,
was forced into exile. Religion was the
cause.
Her mother was condemned to die, but
appeals were taken to Queen Victoria OF
England by interested friends and her
sentence was committed to fine.
Queen Victoria obtained the commuta-
ton through her friendship with Queen
Donna Marie, the ruling sovereign of
Portugal But Mrs. Smiths mother
could not pay the fine. so she WAS kept
in prison for twenty-three months.
When released the family fed TO Irinl-
dad After two years residence there
they emigrated to America, Shortly
after arriving In New York the family
came by tedious stages to Illinois, set
Ting In Jacksonville, a few miles from
here.
The Alves family probably is the old
est living family In the United States.
All its members are noted for longevity

Alves, a farmer living near Jacksonville,
is 06 years old; Mrs. j. Figuerla Of
Brooklyn, 81, and J. J. Alves OF Farm
ingdale, IL, So Mrs. Smith is the oldest
member Of the family.
But the Smiths are wing with the
Alves for tho longevity record.
Mrs. Smith has FIVE living children,
twenty seven grandchildren, forty great
grandchildren and i've great greatgrand-
children. Her oldest child is 81 years
and her youngest 81.
The latter, incidentally, could easily

CHINESE PROTEST
DUTCH JAVA RULE
Naturalization Law Is Cause
of Discomfort.

PEKING, China, May 15.--Four rep
resentatives of Chinese residents in Java
recently arrived in Picking to lay before
the government list of their grievances
against the Dutch administration in
Java.
The Chinese who live in Java come
chiefly from the two provinces Of Can
ton and Fukien and some Of them be-
long to families which have been in the
island for more than 300 years.
New legislation has been enacted dur
ing the last few years and this has af-
fected the status of these residents to
such an extent that they believe that
their rights are being interfered with.
They claim that many Of them are
restricting the education of their chill
dren.
The chief source Of discomfort is that
the new legislation seems designed to
compel the Chinese to become natural
iJed, while they prefer to continue their
loyalty to China
The yclaim that many of theme are
descendants Of families which were in
Java before the Dutch traders came there
and that they have vested interests
which ought not to be disturbed.
