across as 4 Republican state. The
Republican women joined the Demo-
crat women of the state in asking
for the rights of the ballot. They
are going to exercise those rights, II
is up to the women who are Demo-
Gratis, to go and do likewise. 1t is
up TO them to remember that the
returns from the primary election
showed that the Democrats of Okla
homa have a greater voting strength
than have the Republicans, and re-
membering this, TO get out and hustle
from now until the polls close on cleo
ton day. and to come to the polls on
that day, there to show their Repub-
lican sisters that they of the Demo-
cratic faith are also organized and
ighting-fighting TO keep Oklahoma
in the safely Democratic column in
which it belongs. and not in the
doubtful column into which the Re
publicans, men and women, are try
ing TO have ii counted.
The eyes of the nations Democracy
are upon the Democratic women Of
Oklahoma. And we believe, when the
votes have been counted, the returns
will show that every Democratic wo-
man of the great Sooner state went
to the polls and exercised the right
given her by the constitutions Of
both the state and nation.

The women of Oklahoma We're given
the right Of the ballot by the men,

sisters in many other states received
that right by amendment to the fed

islature, answering the demand Of
the women Of the state, submitted the
amendment to the state constitution
to the voters of the state, and the
majority Of those voters favored it.
They voted to give the right of fran
chise TO the women of Oklahoma be-
cause they believed that it was right.
and because the majority of the wo-
men felt they were entitled to this
high honor.
1t Is up to the women to now eX-

lege which has been granted them.

Power Behind tho jap Throne.

In actual practice the emperor,
under the constitutional regime, has
never openly exercised any direct
power; he reigns, but does not
govern.
Down to very recent date the
reins Of government were really in
the hands of an institution not men
toned in the costitutiQn at all, the
Genro, or Elder Statesmen, an unoffi-
cial group made up from among the
fifty-f1ve leaders who conceived and
achieved the restoration.
Their function is purely advisory
to the government, yet in times of
national crisis they had often more
weight than privy council. cabinet or
diet. At present only four of them
remain active, and this in spite of
the fact that two have been officially
added from the older men not
hitherto classed with the group.
The institution of the elder states
men seems on the verge Of extinc-
ton. But during its existence its
achievement has been little short of
miracle; in less than fifty years it
has piloted japan brilliantly from
feudalism to its present conspicuous
position in world politics.
1t has done this by the invention
OF a new religion-mikado worship.
And never has there been q religion
more edifying to Occidental credul-
tty, more pleasing to native vanity.
more powerful as an instrument for
the attainment Of national ends,
more useful as diplomatic engine.
