Not Overpleased.

Freezing, Va, Sept. 25.-The
male contingency, generally
speaking, in this neck of the
woods do not appear to be over
pleased at the idea of equal suf-
fruge, neither do "the females
of the species" show any signs
of being overjoyed, now that
suffrage has been granted them.
One outspokeu lady handed
down In the present generation
from tho middle of last century
delivers herself of this tirute
against the acknowledgements of
the geutler sex: cit is nothing
but an abomination in tho
sight of the Lord, that's what
it is. Why" she continued,
"such thing was never heard
of in my mpther's day, and If
it had, sho'd have been just like
me, against it,"
AS the matters look now, not
even twenty per cent. Of the
women in the west end will
qualify to vote.

Votes Count Now.

For many years we men have
been told what would happen If
women were ever given equal
suffrage with men.
Now they have it.
In future the vote of the hum
blest female citizen will count
just MS much as that Of the
president OF the United States.
Acts, not words. will write
the story Of the future.
IL Is II matter of speculation
ns to just what effect the femi-
nine vote will have in national
and state politics, but the pre-
sumption il that it will have Il
tendency To purify the ballot
and retire II certain stamp Of
politicians who have been seek
ing to debnuch tho ballot for
years.
Morally woman is unquos-
tionably the superior of man,
and il she demonstrates the
fact that she is broad minded
enough to rise above peanut
politics and vote for men Of
stability and character, regard
less of political considerations,
we may reasonably expect her
advent To he ono of supreme
Importance To the future vel
fare of our country. In such
an event political leaders Will
hesitate long before attempting
To foist upon the voters of their
party n man who does not truly
represent the intelligence and
the integrity of that party.
Until women adjust lhem-
selves TO their new station III
life some no doubt will vote
III, rely as their husbands do,
while others will do their own
thinking aud vote IA they
please.
1t is to the lnttcr class that
we must look for any material
change from our present
political methods aud sys-
tenn.
The November election will
tell much of the story, but few
political forecasters are willing
TO make even the smallest kind
Of II prediction at this time.
The politicians themselves
are all Laundering in sea of
uncertainty.
