TWO VIEWS ON WOMEN AND
THEIR PLACE IN POLITICS.
Delegate-at-Large Contrasts Demo-
cratic and Republican Policies.

In a message to the women of her
state, Mrs Kate s.. Morrow, dele
gate-at-large from Missouri to the
Democratic National Convention,
says:
1.-The Democratic party in Missouri
and in the nation, has made sure
that women share all party benefits,
and has asked that they do their
share in shouldering party work "a
task cheerfully undertaken. Contrast
such a situation with that which
prevails in the republican party.
Despite high-sounding promises
and pledges, the Republican party
cares only for the votes of the wo-
men; carefully avoids placing them
in positions Of trust where their ideal
ism might wreck carefully laid plalls
OF old Guard bosses. The Republic
can party seeks the support Of women
for their votes; the Dem ocratic party
seeks support of women in order that
their idealism, their intelligence, may
be centered to work Tor the good Of
umanity-may strengthen the cause
Of Jefferson principles

LLETTISAl" IN TIE HOUSE.

"Gillettism" is the republican
dyDasty's newest lad It is more up
to date than .Cannonism," and goes
farther. 1t is not dissimilar TO
"Czarism' in the old Russia, or Bis
marcks blood and iron policy.
AS applied by the Republican
Speaker. from whom it takes its
name, at the direction of the republi-
can millionaire steering commit
tee," it is most effectively used in
the House Of Representatives to
silence those who would say such
things as Speaker Gillett and the
steering committee do not wish to
have said. By the application Of
"Gillettism, the Speaker, who,
thought he is but one of the 435
members of the House, may refuse to
recognize a gentleman on the floor,
regardless of whether it is the will
of the other 434 members that the
gentleman be heard.
'Cannonism," Czarism" and blood
and iron have all run their evil
course and are no more, which
ought to be a lesson to the Speaker
and the steering committee" al

SAYS SENATOR PENROSE DOES
NOT KNOW WOMEN.
Mary Roberts Rinehart, q Republic
can Writer, Criticizes Penn
syIyanian.

Signs of revolt on the part Of Re-
publican women are becoming more
numerous as the date of the national
convention approaches, and the dec
laration made by Mrs. Mary Roberts
Rinehart, famous as author and
speaker, that as long as Senator Boies
Penrose holds control Of the Republic
can organization in Pennsylvania the
women OF the state never will re-
ceive political recognition reveals the
growing discomfort.
q do not believe that Senator Pen
rose dislikes women Mrs. Rinehart
said in an interview, but | am GER
tain that he does not know women.
Consequently he does not understand
and has no confidence in them. Every
bit of political recognition that the
women of this state will be given they
will get in spite Of Senator Penrose,
and possibly as a result of spirited
fights with him. Even though they
may be given the vote, they have still
another obstacle to overcome before
they can attain full POLITICAL powers. .
Having expressed her belief that
the women OF every state in the
Union would cast their votes at the
presidential election in November,
She added that thus would be released
"a tremendous power which will in
ject an unprecedented quantity Of
common sense into national politics"
Women are of a very eliteral
frame of mind" said Mrs. "Rinehart'
continuing, "Abstractions neither
bind nor blind them. They pin their
faith to concentrate facts. The rub
ber-stamp woman will be in the
minority"
Mrs. Rnehart has the viewpoint Of
democracy, and evidently realizes
that there is something decidedly
wrong with political party that re-
tains such leader as the Senator
who, if possible, will prevent the
political recognition of women. His
blindness to the handwriting on the
wall, however, is likely to assure his
retirement when he next asks the
voters Of Pennsylvania to send him
back to the seat in which he fails to
represent one-half of the residents OF
his state.

A RIGHTEOUS VETO.

President Wilson, in his veto Of
the Knox resolution, drives straight
to the heart of the moral issue that
is presented by this unprecedent
action Of Congress.
He wastes no time in discussing
whether peace can or cannot be made
constitutional by such paltry and

not bring myself to become party
to any action which would place an
ineffaceable stain upon the gallantry
and honor of the United States

gress has undertaken to make
peace that attains none OF the aims
and objects for which the American
people professed to be fighting It
right any of the wrongs that the
German Government committed. 1t

The Knox resolution was mean,
cowardly subterfuge, con-

pose behind it was partisan pur-

make the President take the re-
sponsibility for continuing the state
Of war after the Senate had refused
to ratify the treaty of peace.
If there is any moral sentiment
left in the United Staes, if there is
any honest adherence to the ideals
with which the United States enter

partisan vote. 1t is as futile. as
Senator Lodge once said such
peace would be dishonorable, be-
cause it was known it was uncon-
stitutional and that the president,
under his oath Of office, must veto
it.
Senators Lodge. Knox and the
other Republican leaders responsible
for this act of "dishOnor' know that
peace cannot be made in such a way;

a sham that fails to hide their real

ENGLISH PRESS VIEWS
ON HARDING'S CHANCES
Globe and Westminster Gazette Say Much Depends on
Strength OF Democratic Nominee; Star Looks
Upon Candidate as Creature of Party Bosses

LONDON. June 1.-THE London
evening paper editorials on the Re
publican nomination are devoted
largely to speculation on Senator
liarding's chances of election and
what effect that would have on
Americans foreign policy. Both the
Globe and Westminster Gazette are
of'thc opinion that Senator Harding's
election is by no means assured il the
Democrats are able to find strong
candidate.
The Globe thinks Republican de-
feat is not impossible II such man
as William G. McAdoo or John w
Davis were nominated.
The Westminster Gazette declares
that Great Britain must preserve
neutrality IN Il presidential conflict.
but cannot disguise it's interest. 1t
is doubtful. in the opinion OF the
Gazette If the November election can
settle the question whether the
United States will pursue a purely
American policy or take hand in
international politics.
Had President Wilson been avail
able" says the paper, he might have
boldly carried his banner into the
fight and rallied the majority TO him
by the lofty appeals he knows so we'll
how to make. But in his default it
is unlikely that any Democratic nom

Of the Democratic party for pure
league of nations doctrine.
"On the other hand, the Republic

world politics and even seems to ia

point gained"

senator Harding is credited with
