Advising Women Voters.
(New York World. ]

w. L. George, the English feminist and novel, iSl. bids American women remember that the winning of the ballot is only the beginning of the struggle We hear so much, he says, of the right of women to vcte To the deuce with anybodys rights! The vote is not right; it is duty
 Perhaps spirit of hospitality will prevent Ameri women from asking the distinguished visitor why this benevolent advice is for them alone not for voters. Voting is duty that has rested on the n.en of America more than century, and &s to how inteligently they have discharged may an open question. Perhaps long has confused the duty with the right. But at least male electors are not nowadays subjected to many solemn eXhortat tons regarding the moral obligations of the ballet as are their sister voters.
 The disposition of men generally to advise women how to exercise their new-won franchise is indeed of the curious manifestations of humal. psychology. Possibly the motive behind it is the consciousness that the male is the wiser of the species; possibly it reflects chivalric interest feminine welfare.
 At the same time it is to be hoped that superior will suffer disillusion. It would he a shock to discover that women more conscious of duty of voting than their mentors and performed it conscientiousy What will happen, in all probabil- ity, is that women will vote about men have voted and with an equal degree of intelligence of the lack of it.

BRYAN IN THE CAMPAIGN.

That William J. Bryan is out to scuttle th- can didacy of Gov Cox is becoming clearly evident He las taken charge of movement to disregard the Presidential campaign and to unite for the purpose of electing two-thirds majority in the Senate and House of Representatives who will defeat measure that wet President might devise. In statement in his Commoner MT. Bryan puts the purpose of those with whom he is working this way:
 As the vets piedging themselves to
 support wet candidates without regard to
 party affiliations, the drys should disregard
 party lines and secure Congress two-thirds
 dry in both Houses that necessary dry
 laws and appropriations be passed
 the veto of wet President and that
 wet President may be impreached and re-
 moved from office if by failure to enforce
 the law he violates his oath of office"
 It is not disguised that Mir. Bryan regards Gov. Cox as candidate and, it is said, he is dis posed to likewise regard Senator Harding
 When MT. Bryan asked how he reconciled his stand with his reply that he was still Democrat when the Prohibition Party offered him the Presi- dential nomination, he said:
 T regard it entirely within my right
 a member of the party. Since I have been
 active in politics I have known one Demo-
 cratic President to help elect Republican
 President and yet remain Democrat. In
 this he referred to the attitude of Grover
 Cleveland during Mir. Bryan's first campaign
 for the presidency) FTE
 "I have also known prominent Demo-
 crat who refused to support Democratic
 candidate for President and who obtained his
 reward in elevation Democratic Presi-
 dent (referring to President Wilson's att-
 tude in another Bryan campaign)
 Then recall the instance of q Republican
 eX-Presdent helping to elect Democratic
 President and still remaining, only Re.
 publican, but quite prominent trefer-
 ring the late Colonel Roosevelt at the
 time President Taft defeated for
 election.)
 'Surey With such eminent illustrations
 as the latitude allowed members Of both
 parties l should be permitted to remain
 silent without forfeiting my right to
 bership in the Democratic Party"
 MT Bryans attitude toward Gov. Cox. in view of the laters clean record Governor of Ohio in the enforcement Of the prohibition and all other laws, eniy unjust. but it is clearly the result of Litter disappointment the refusal Of the San Francisco convention to accept his leadership. MT. Lryans past record justifes this conclusion. H. has been anxious separate the sheep from the goats when his leadership acknowledged When necessary to gain retain party leadership he has ship acknowledged and he his parys candidate for President he has paid glowing tribute to that organization For instance. he fought Tammany q standstill in 1896 at Chicago, but in 1900 when he the undsputed leader of his party and it's candidate for President, he exclaimed in a speech at Madison Square Great is Tammany. end Richard Croker is its prophet Again in 1904 find him fighting Tammany rigdly at St Louis. at Denver in 1908 he and Charles F Murphy have their picture

 The feller that writes the Green bush (Ohio) piece for the Eaton (Ohio) Register Herald got peevcd at some of the bathing suits he saw at the Miami Valley Chautauqua. He describes the costume worn by a girl as "a union suit covering the bust, but not extending farther down than the hips" Whaddy va mean union suit?" He continued his lamenta- tions thusly:
 If it had not been for the more rounded and sometimes more deli 2ate form and generally but not al ways a fuller bust it was difficult n some cases to distinguish between 'exes as far as bathing suits were concerned"
 We'll, we hope we ain't sick in bed when the next Miami Chautauqua s pulled off.
