erty. equality and fraternity.
Among the greatest of these char
ters, bills of rights, declarations, con-
stitutions and laws that have par
ticularly Influenced the historic de-
velopment of the American people are
Magma Charta. the Bill of Rights of
1859, the Reform Bill of 1882, the Re-
form Bill of 1867. the Declaration of
the Rights of Man of 1889. the May
flower Compact. the Declaration Of
Independence, the Federal Constitu-
tion, the Emancipation Proclamation
and the Nineteenth Amendment to the
Federal Constitution.
Following these precedents we have
met here to-day with confident and
determined spirit to launch our new
party, to found our permanent head
quarters from which that party will
operate and to promulgate our charter
We, the NATIONAL Woman's Party
in the national capital of our country
assembled. hail with joy the winning
of the franchise for women and do
here dedicate ourselves anew to the
glorious task OF establishing justice
and woman.
We pledge ourselves to bring to
triumphant conclusion that which was
so worthily begun in the United States
by the Founding Mothers of 1S4s,
when they resolved to work for equal
ity between the sexes in church and
State, in public and private life, mar
ried and single. in education ana
morals, in the trades and professions,
business and industry. They de-
manded for women the right Of free
speech and free assembly, the right
to be tried by jury of her peers. TO
control her own property and earn
ings. her labor and services. and the
guardianship of her children--in short,
the right OF self determination Tor
women.
After all these years of effort only
one of these points-politicai equaity
lis fully gained in this country, and
even that not at all in vast areas OF
the world.
AS chain is no stronger than It's
weakest link, so the position OF the
most privileged woman is determined
by that Of the weakest and most un-
fortunate woman. We recognize that
whenever a woman anywhere Is sub
jected to man the status OF the whole
sex the world over is jeopardized We
therefore urge women to stand fast
together in solidarity. joining hands
around the earth.
The great historic charters. bills Of
rights. declarations, constitutions and
statutes which widened the bounds of
liberty were all drawn UP and adopted
by men alone without the participa-
ton or consent Of women. They not
only failed to recognize the rights OF
women, but in many instances i'm
paired and injured these rights, so
that woman's position was worse after
the promuIgation Of such charters.

On my own farm. which is owned

keep accounts which show precisely
the details of our receipts and expen-

the sale of wheat and eggs and so on.
For example, reference to our books
shows that during last year we pro-
duced precisely 70,s31 quarts of milk,
or 5.903 quarts a month. A days pro-
duction was 1874 quarts. Then also

BY MARTHA C. THOMAS,
Treasurer Pennsylvania League oi
Women Voters.

EFT me begin this article as mod
estly as l may by saying that
- am a graduate of Bryn Mawr
College, treasurer of the Pennsylvania
League of Women Voters, officer and
member in number of different kinds
of civic movements and a candidate
for the State House of Representa-
tives. Now as l want to write some
thing of my experiences as farmer
both those In the city and those in the
country are likely TO feel that my
views on this subject will be too aca-
demic and not at all in touch with the
raising of stock and the growing of
wheat and ether staples. But the
trouble with many farmers is that
they arc not academic enough. They
insist on being what they describe
as practical, and frequently their So
called practical management of farms
provides them with only a meager liv-
ing. and they never know just where
they stand financially or agricultur-
ally.
If academic theories can be turned
to profitable account in engineering. in
medicine and I'm other fields of human
activity IL might be we'll to concede
for moment that academic theory
properly planted might help the far
mer. and in so doing help the people
OF the whole country generally. For,
after all. the farm is one of the great
sources of our wealth and progress.
Just let me cite some evidence in sup
port of what am trying to convey.

Only recently Horace A. Beale. presi-
dent of the Parkersburg Iron Com
Iany. one of my friends and neighbors,
who takes a large interest in public
affairs and community problems, has
offered the farmers of Chester county
daily reports on the weather and the

So the point / am trying to make is
that il the business management OF
the farm will only keep pace with what
may be described as the mechanical ia
cilities of modern farm life then 1t is
more than likely that the country can
more successfully compete with the
exotic allurements of the city.
While / am developing in this way
sort of parallel between farming
and public affairs, and I have no idea
of trying to explain or connect myself
with the farm bloc, it might be well to
point out that Col Thomas was a

EDITORIAL)

EDITORIA)
In her history. Wyoming has had no occasion of Sc
lecting a governor and state officials associated with
greater uncertainty and indecision than the primary
election held Tuesday and still dragging its continued
story along for possibly another day or so.
The contest for the governorship has occupied public
interest, almost to the exclusion of other important con-
tests and it was only by the thrusting of figures before
you that any attention was given them.
In the unofficial returns the fortunes of Democratic
candidates, unopposed or with contest, were practically
disregarded. And even now the man in the street does
not know who the Democratic candidates were or who
won the nomination.
Yesterday evening Hay took the lead over Carey, who
had held it during the day, by the reporting of scattered
southwestern precincts. Then began the see-sawing,
settling down this afternoon to a lead OF 2S6 by Hay,
with scattered precincts in Albany, Fremont and Camp
bell counties still delinquent.
OF the unreported territory Albany and Fremont
counties are regarded as favoring Hay and the Campbell
county country as d~ebatable, possibly more favorable to
Carey than Hay.
This points as certain to the nomination of Hay as
things political may be regarded as certain.
The primary has been so replete with surprises that
no one is justified in claiming anything containing the
least element of doubt.
At this stage OF affairs claims are futile. The official
count will be required. We Will all accept the offlclal
figures and abide by them.
