Show Woman's Power Without the llnllot- No earnest woman can embark in any liiiiua;ie work without having the truth borne in npnn her of the helpless condition condi-tion of a citizen without a vote. Put a single protlig.it qualified male voter in ; one scale, and a score of conscientious, disfranchised women in tho other, and 1 we know which scale will kick the beam. 1 So every struggle for tho uplifting of tho F race which enlists the support of woman is a sure preparatory school for her coiu- Ireheiision of equal rights. There is a fable of a company of lwav-ers lwav-ers who consoled themselves on parting IvcHtise they would all meet again in the hatter's shop. And the unthinking women who derido the thought of voting und Mill interest themselves in social reform re-form will be certain to find themselves Rome fine morning in tho camp of woman etiffrnge, but with a wholeness which ' V the lieavers lacked.
