THE AMIS IN THE FIRST DISTRICT
Rumor has it that the anti-suffragists are planning a crusade in East
Baltimore, where they will open headquarters on South Broadway for
two weeks during the latter part of June. How strange it is that they
should choose this time, when the president and several of the active
workers of the district are campaigning in (iarrett-eounty. It makes
one think of the old saying, "When the cat's away the mice will play."
But the suffragists never leave the field unguarded, (iood workers are
at the helm, and, besides, the army will return with colors flying.
CLUB WOMEN PROVE VOTE'S VALUE
Interesting Opiniana From Waatarn Woman Voter*.
There is nothing like the test of experiment to clear up conflicting
theories. A circular-letter of Inquiry was lately sent by the editor of
the Woman's Journal to the presidents of the State federations of
Women's Clubs in the suffrage States and to the chairmen of their legis-
lative committees, asking whether the ballot caused women to lose their
non-partisan influence, and whether they found the ballot an advantage
to them in securing good public measures. As the club women all over
the country are working for improved legislation, they are in a good |k>-
sition to judge of this question, especially such of them as have worked
for improved legislation both before and since women gained the right
to vote.
The answers are instructive. These cx)>ericiiced clubwomen arc
unanimous in saying that the ballot has brought women increased res|>ect
and added jwwer for good. Mrs. Benjamin lr. l'agc, chairman of the
Illinois Legislative Committee, writes: "The politicians all over the State
|>ay much more attention to what the women want. Women arc going
to be a great power for non-partisanship in all the questions that affect
the public welfare."
Mrs. Sarah A. Kvans, President of Oregon, says: "The clubwomen
of Oregon find that in every measure they undertake, suffrage gives them
an advantage they never had before. Men are realizing that |>arty counts
for very little where pure food, improved sanitation or protection for
children is involved."
Mrs. J. S. McKee, President of the State of Washington, says:
"Kqual suffrage has increased woman's influence without decreasing her
dignity."
Mrs. James W. Orr, President of California, says: "Legislators re-
gard women's opinions with decidedly more respect.. It is certainly a
power to have the ballot. We get better legislation."
Mrs. Henry D, Koss, President of Arizona, says: "We find that
women of all parties want such things as pure food, improved sanitation,
protection of children, etc., and their united influence for such measures
is more powerful because it has votes behind it."
Mrs. K. A. Morton, President of Wyoming, says: "The Eastern
women are as a nation without a navy; the votes to us are superdread-
naughts." And Mrs. Millie R. Trumbull, chairman of the Oregon Legis-
lative Committee, voices the unanimous opinion when she answers the
question "Would you wish to have equal suffrage repealed?" "Great
heavens, no!"—Woman's Journal of June &
EUGENICS
We got a queer disease, my sister'n f,
That makes folks allers give us the go-by;
'Tain't nothin' like the measles nor the mumps;
It don't come out in s|xjts, nor yet in bumps.
It's cuz o' somethin' 'I hapiwned long ago,
When we was home with Ma an' Pa, yer know,
An' Pa was out o' work fer most a year,
An' Ma was sick. O my, you'd oughter hear
Her cough! Twas fierce! An'Pa, he useter say:
"The kills 'd do well if we was out the way."
So then he up an' shot hisself an' Ma.
Folks saiil 'at he was kinder crazed—|mor Pa!
An' somehow 'n other that give Meg an' me
This queer disease they call "heredity."
—Mary I "ida Clark, in The Surrey.
Chairman Robert L. Henry of the rules committee has refused to
see delegations of women who come to Washington for the purpose of
urging him to report a rule providing for the consideration of the Mondell
woman suffrage resolution. Mr. Henry explains that he refuses to see
the women "because they were coming too thick and fast." "I began to
see them at every turn anil corner," he continued, "like the fellow in
Shakespeare—was it Hamlet of Macbeth? The fact is that I have no
authority to report such a rule, and cannot do so until the Democratic
caucus rescinds its former action."
