Never again can a presidential campaign be planned without those six ion women being thoughtfully considered as a dangerous salient. “Pooh, pooh, how ridiculous! Half of them won't ever go near the polls,” exclaims the disfigured-but-still-in-the-ring anti. “But whoever said they would?” replies the pro-suffragist. “They won't have to. It isn’t just because the voter votes that he cuts political ice. It is the possibility. The wary wayworn politician takes his um. brella, not because he knows it is going to rain, but because ‘You | never can tel! But Not for Roadmaster, and Why T did not stop the clock when the governor of Vermont. signed the bill which gave women the right to vote for town and county officials, for all was not lost. The roadmaster still stood a man chosen by men to make and remake the king’s highway. In former town meetings he has passed unnoted and unimportant. But now he will stand a thing apart. He will be the only one who can pass scornfully by the women taxpayers who can vote for all Save him. By some strange freak of the legislature he alone can be the chesty one Strange freak? Not at all. Quite simple. A roadmaster must be in or near the road and a woman’s place is in the home. It would never do to let thoughts of the qualifications for road-making violently intrude them- selves into heads that should be only concerned with the construction of pies and doughnuts. No, so extramural a person as a roadmaster should not even be thought about by the goddess of the cookstove. It would be putting sand in the gear box of the domestic machine. Towa on the Back Seat F Iowa thought to cause even a ripple in the suffrage world by sending in the news that the legislature had passed a suffrage referendum bill, Iowa must guess again. ‘Time was when Iowa was the apple of the suffragist’s eye. ‘Time was when for decades the suffragists believed that, if ever they could get the question of woman suffrage to the men of Iowa, there would be immediate use for the largest roosters in the suffrage press room, That time is passed. It matters not that it proved to the satisfaction of many that suffrage was counted out, not voted out, at the Iowa Referendum. All that matters to the suffs is that it was not counted in. So it is that the action of the Iowa Legislature was duly entered in the suffrage card index under the heading “mere incidents.” Only that and nothing more. Why Minnesota Women Mourn P in Minnesota three men stood between women and presidential suf- f And why? One of the three whose changed votes could have changed d t into victory looked scornfully at the assembled women and said: “Only women who have lost the power to attract: men want the vote.” Where was the man’s sense of chivalry? [fwomen have mislaid the prime jewel of womanhood must they mourn disconsolate and be denied every thing else? A man like that wouldn't give a dog a bone. Then he turned menacingly to his fellow solons and said that votes for women meant a woman-run government; that five women in that very senate would run the whole show; that the men would yield to their opinions in every instance. Obviously they couldn't do it by force of muscle. Obviously they couldn't imidate a whole senate in any virago, fishwifelike style. Ob- viously the result of the vote must be that the charm for men is recovered via the ballot. So the poor suffragists sadly wended their homeward way with a sense of loss deeper than they had imagined. They had merely wanted the vote sa vital part of citizenship. They had never thought of it as a sort of ri to a beauty parlor. For them the opposing senator had plainly painted on the door of politics: WOULD YOU ATTRACT MEN?
