THE RIGHT TO VOTE YKAR8 ago at a certHln college In the Middle West It whs the cut torn of the undertrrudtiMtea to march down town tome pleasant evening In Miring and demand free admission to the local theater. They accompa nied this demand often with a good deal of. fore aud. without right or re ii son, did considerable dauiag. There were broken heads often, and broken glass, and on occaslou men were sent away front college. Hoping to solve the difficulty the tlieater manager agreed at a denYlte time to open the playhouses free of ihiirge to those who had previously demanded admission. It didn't Inter est anyone. Having gotten what I hey wanted, they didn't want It any more. It Is about the suuie way with vot ing In this country. As far bark as 1 can remember the women of this conn try have been clamoring for the right to vote, and to a greater or less de gree they have been given that privi lege. They made a good many prom ises as to what things would be done, what wrongs would be righted, what reforms would be Instituted In such u ?vent, and some of these preiftctlons have come to pass but not many. No one. If one believes what he Miyi when he rise to his feet to make a patriotic speech, thinks more highly of the right of suffrage than does the American cltlien, and no civ ilised cltlien In the world Is said to me It less frequently than he doe. Xo matter what the question I nnder consideration or how Important its so lution to the community most men and women expect to be given a ho!ldny nn election day for which they draw their regular pay, and then they often re fuse to go to the polls. There was an Important mutter to he decided last spring In a nearby town a matter which should have aroused the Interest and the activity of right-thinking and serlous-uilnded people. There were enough women In town to have carried the proportion, even If the men bad all stayed at home. There were enough chntvh members to have done It, had they come out to vote, but they did not, and the proposition which Involved the control of moral conditions In town was lost because people who had the light to vote did not have Interest enough to exercise that right. It seems to be the right to vote that men and women want more than they dilre the responsibilities of voting. Ift IHS. WW.r NaaitMUMT VlUll i ADVERTISE IN i t Thi Independet IT RL ACHES THE PEOPLE.
