Mrs. Virginia White Speel, in the
District of Columbia, is heading a

Republican women, who are away
from home, and to see that they vote
in their home districts in the coming
election.

ton, September 7th.

Women of New Mexico were
amazed recently on reading an article
sent out from Democratic headquar-
tiers introducing the Democratic state
ticket, to find that neither of the wo-
men candidates on that ticket were
recommended or mentioned in any
shape or manner. This is in marked
contrast to the attitude of Republi-
cans, who are proud of both their
women candidates: Mrs. Warren for
Congress and Mrs. Blaney for super
! intendent of public instruction. Al
though the Democratic party has al
ways been Indifferent to woman
suffrage, and a comparatively small
number of the Democratic states
ratified the suffrage amendment, yet
it was not expected that such feeling
would continue after women have
been voting for three years, and the
Democratic party, as a whole, has
hypocritically accepted the situation
and pretended to acquiesce by placing
women on the ticket. The Demo-
cratic insincenity in this matter is
no greater than on many other
things, in which they trail in and &C
cept the beneficial results attained
through the Republican party, in a
half-hearted manner and undertake
to use them to their advantage, but
their attitude in this instance is more
apparent than in most other cases.

Deeply interested" is the
way women put it when they write
into national headquarters asking for
more literature. Women all over the
nation are now cat school, political
", studying the issues. They are not
only Republicans, and knowing
WHY, but are going to be well in
formed citizens and a splendid asset
to the Republican party, which ex-
tends the heartiest kind of a well
come to the intellectual American
woman-whose name is '1egion''-
and who just naturally is Republican.
The Republican party is putting these
strong, fine women in office in the
party, and among its candidates.
Three hundred of them grace the Re-
publican tickets in one capacity or
another; and they are helping
shape party policies and tendencies
and motives and programs from
Maine to California. They are trans
forming the Republican party, not
into a ''wOman's party"-by any
means-but into a family party,
where both man and woman citizen
work together to build up a more
magnificent America, where the in
terest of every citizen will receive
the fullest consideration and justice
as it is in the well regulated home.
They will make this country, in the
fullest sense, Our Homeland, not
Fatherland nor Mother Country.
