The Funk.SaSse Letters

Since the day politics began away
hack IL some distant age beyond hui
man memoir spicy eioquence and hot
repartee have delighted and warmed
The hearts Of the bystanders and
often just such bits Of inconseqaen-
tial stuff have been the means Of
making devoted partisars for cause
or for candidate. Men. naturally.
have lad close monopoly on this
usually harmless form OF amphibious
sport, b1t their sisters, wives and
mothers have not failed TO note the
importance Of it nor been prevented
from learning the rudimects Of the
game for themselves.
Now that women are standing On
the political ros.ra with men they
are making use OF the knowledge
gained through long years Of observ-
alton. We are not recommending
that all women start al once 20 per
feet themselves in the highly special
lied art Of political repartee, much
less are we advocating the common
OF garden variety known as mud
Singing. We are merely quoting
from the correspondence Of two
prominent women Of opposite parties
TO whom have been entrusted i'm
portant positions OF leadership
among women voters.
Mrs. An.oinette Funk director Of
education of the Democratic national
committee made a statement reflect
ing upon the financial condition OF
the United States under the admins
.ration Of President Harrison.
vfereupon Miss Alma Sassc, cilair-
mar Of the Republican women's
state committee of Missouri wrote
her a lengthy reply controverting
her statement and taking Mrs Funk
20 task for making statements "un-
becoming a director Of education"
Mrs. Funk replied IN part al fol-
lows:
Il am Lot interested in your
opinion Of the Harrison administra-
ton. neither am / interested in your
opinion on anything, and I do not
solicit it. Your sermon on general
morality and advice 10 me as to the
best way to conduct my life and
work is not needed. When l am
looking for that kind of advice the
Holy Rollers, understand have an
organization near US. and have also,
/ think, stored away among my junk,
q calendar issued by Lydia Pinkham.
I can refer TO those. Any further
communications from you viii find
their way into the waste-basket-"
Was the Republican lady silenced
and chagrined? She was not She
mailed her comeback promptly, In
which she said:
"Now IT,. on the question Of good
morality and advice, the Holy Rollers
and Lydia Pinkham meet your need,
Tar be It from me to complain Ev-
eryone to their own taste. But when
You use the Holy Rollers for your
political inspiration. and Lydia Pink
hams calendar for your political
text book, it is time for rational peo-
pie to- take = hand"
She explained that she would be
glad to receive further letters from
Mrs Funk which she would be able
