A NEW POLITICAL FACTOR

Much has been said OF the new factor In the
politics OF tho nation, the reference being to
. the woman vote and the feminine influence, but
not until the republican convention at Chicago
did tho idea fully register on the consciousness
OF those who have hitherto gestured with some
substantial results in the political arena,
The nineteenth amendment has not yet been
accepted by tho republic, but women In various
states are already factors In politics. they win
be universally accepted as such within short
time, and they and their influence was at Chi
cago, not perhaps as contributing factors to the
results there attained, h4it as vital factors In
the final evangeliste demonstration OF the Susan
II, Anthony movement
We think It is fact that comparatively few
men OF the republican party among the great
number who have participated in the conduct
OF their party. were at heart partisans OF the
suffrage The reasons for this lack Of
sincerity in their advocacy OF womans rights
not be inquired into here, nor argument adduced
to justly or sustain 1t. The nero assertion OF
the fact Is all that is necessary.
And we also think II true that comparatively
few OF these men who went through the Chicago
convention, from the beginning OF the meetings
OF the national committee to the final fall OF
the savel on the convention proceedings fifteen
days later but returned to their homes converts
TO suffrage and ardent champions OF woman's
active participation In the public affairs of her
country,

way and pioneered the movement; the unpleas-
antly masculine characters that carried the ban
