| from this important duty. Some
equal suffrage states have enacted
laws exempting women from service
and others have no law upon the
subject.
In Wyoming there was no law to
require jury duty in territorial days,
but Justice Howe took the law in his
own hands and drew women juries,
declaring them to be the only solid
and reliable citizens. His action was
repeatedly questioned, however, and
at his retirement on account of i'll
health the practice was discontinued.
In some of these states where wo-
men were called they were after
ward exempted, but by degrees they
are enacting laws to restore them to
jury duty, realizing the need of just
what the women could supply.
Washington and California are
two of these and New York will like
ly pass such a law at the next sitting
of the legislature. One of the first
national movements by the League
of Women Voters will be unifying
of laws upon this subject and the
granting of citizenship to married
women by an act of Congress, and
not through her husband as the law
now stands.
You observe there is no mention
made in any of these findings where
the ballot imposes jury duty. There
is no hide-bound rules in jury ser
vice among men, and there will be
none among women. Among men
there are many exemptions, perhaps
more than should be. The profession
al men are the greatest shirkers of
this duty which is to be regretted.
Women who can serve should be
glad to do so, and those who cannot
will always be excused. Before clos
ing the subject perhaps it is we'll to
refute a stock argument that we
hear oftenest. The women are told
that they will get shut up all night
with eleven men if we have equal
suffrage, and jury duty has proved
the very best ghost of all. Now, find
us a jury composed of South Caro-
lima men where there are eleven men
drawn that would offer insult to a
South Carolina woman; not one gen
tleman in the bunch. You can't do
it. Then stop using that argument.
If one should even prove disrespect-
full there would be another case in
court. One of our good men who is
every fearful of the outcome" put
this argument up to an Edgeheld
suffragist and she came back at him
with "Well, if they were all as nice
as YOU I wouldn't mind" Don't use
your argument any more, get bet
one if you can.
On the other hand should you find
your jury with the eleven mensgho
would forget to be gentlemen, then z
your argument proves that women
should sit on juries, because eleven
out of 12 men drawn may be unfit.
Send this and all the rest of the an
tt propaganda to-the dump heap
forget what is behind and press for
ward to what is before, step into
YOUR new duties with confidence and
pledge yourself to the new day.. s

We are hearing constantly mer
saying and women saying thing:
about suffrage and jury service, link
ing them up as cause and effect
when in truth the thing is the Other
way, instead, the jury preceded
suffrage in its present accepted form
Some time ago lovely, sweet
pink and white powder puff said She
could not register and vote because
she 'sjust couldn't think of sitting on
a jury all night with a lot of men"
She couldn't listen to any reasoning,
she was "reared" to abhor things so
mmannish." She hated 'mannish"
women etc. It was no use, the thing
was 'sbred in the bone" Later on
good old solid mother in Israel ex-
pressed herself as satisfied now since
women were to take a hand in the
administering of the law and could
sit on juries.
Since suffrage for women has
been realized, the general accept
ance by both men and women is to
be expected, and by degrees women
will shoulder their part in elections,
but the deep-seated prejudice against
women jurors is another matter.
Men are trying to make the best of
"a bad matter (?) by suggesting
that a law be passed to exempt wo-
men from jury service. This sort OF
a law would be very unfortunate.
Women are needed in juries just as
much as anywhere else.
After studying over what material
was available, / find that jury duty
and a right to be tried by jury of
YOUR peers dates back to the begin
ming of the 18th century, when in
1915 the English barons rose up and
forced King John at Runnymede to
sign the first declaration of English
independence, known as the Magma
Charta, in which he promises that
emo free man shall be taken, impris-
oned, dispossessed, outlawed or ban
ished, nor shall we go upon him, or
send upon him, except by legal judg-
ment of his peers"
Since that time every free man
and woman has had right to trial
by a jury. But not every man nor
woman has had the political right of
franchise. Only within the last hun
dred or so years among English
speaking peoples has every freeman
been a voter, and not yet have all
women become voters.
It is generally believed that ju-
rors are chosen from the poll list
without regard to sex. This is mis-
take. In a few equal suffrage states
women serve legally, and in others
there has never been any legal ca
tion, although at times they have
been drawn.
Idaho has a law requiring jury
duty but it is seldom enforced. A
woman may even plead sex and be
excused.
There are only FIVE other states
where women are called or permitted
to serve. These are Kansas, Nevada,
Utah, Washington and California,
The women in these states have
shown perfect willingness to serve
There is no reason why sex should
exempt perfectly capable citizen
