not the, same equitable rljht to a voice

justifies man's claim to recording at

the, discussloni, was 'going on, an' old
pauper .stood by, intently Interested In
the, proceedings. ( , His ; large family
had been,, a . charge upon the town for
years. ,;iiese very women had given
of their time and money to preserve
that family from cold and starvation;
had paidj, taxes year after year to en
able . the .poormaster 'to honor the
drafts of the old pauper to keep him
alive through the winter. And yet as
those ladies turned sadly away with
their ballots still' in their hands, the
face of the besotted old brute was
wreathed in smiles. He had been de
clared their superior before the law.
All their , knowledge, their piety, their
philanthropy, their ardent patriotism,
went for naught In the scale, when
weighed against the attribute that he
was a mala. No depth of a mental,
moral or physical degredatlon could
disfranchise him. No height of learn
ing, refinement, loving service to hu
manity or peril for their country, could
by any possibility enfranchise them.
And when 1 saw that old wretch laugh
and realized the outrageous Injustice
of the . law,-1 deefded that while I had
a voice and a vote, they should be
given at every opportunity to terminate
that wrong. . t .
