STRONG FINISHERS.

Suffragists from the 4S States have
concentrated their whole attention on
Gov. Holcomb of Connecticut be-
cause, if he reamins obdurate in his
refusal to call special meeting of the
Legislature, the chief remaining pros
pect for ratification this year will be
North Carolina-which most students
of the suffrage question do not think
at all promising
With 35 States safe and only one
to go, the last lap of the struggle
looked easy, until Delaware failed to
ratify Since then it has been a case
of so near and yet so far, with every
road to the finish almost perpendicu-
lar.
But the American women who. have
almost won the right for all of their
sex in the United States to vote for
President are strong finishers. Their
past performances have been impress
sive and they are not going to give
up now. Their campaign will continue
interesting as long as it lasts, for the
suffrage workers are intensively prac
teal and have learned how official
minds work and what arguments sway
them
In the end. of course, they cannot
lose, for there is no time limit with
in which the Susan B. Anthony "a
mendment must be ratified. If the
matter is not cleaned up in season
for registration for next November, it
will almost certainly be disposed of
during the next Legislative year.
Meanwhile, the women are evolving
a new politics of their own, and will
be able to make their full influence
felt from the moment the sex barrier
to franchise is entirely removed
