Is, there not some way in which to bridge the mighty chasm that yawns between the enfranchised, brainless that happened to be born with an anatomy that makes the wear- leather-hea- d ing of breeches the more convenient, and the highly-cultureunfranchised woman? The Blade will suggest a way out of the political wilderness. There d, r - fill pjl! i is now no dividing line as to race, color or "previous condition of servitude." The obstacle to women voting is that of sex and brains and it is presumed that the opponents to her enfranchise- ment have got pretty much all of- the brains. If women only had the brains, her sex would cut no figure, and if it did, a hundred years or so would, e according to Mr. Roberts, that difficulty. Just let the Constitutional Convention adopt a clause or plank, as the reader prefers, to read as - over-com- follows: i i "After the adoption of this constitution, there shall be 'selected joy 'divine wisdom,' or otherwise, a state phrenologist who shall be empowered to select a phrenologist for each precinct. Thirty days prior to each election, the precinct phrenologists shall examine the heads of all residents, irrespective of sex, age or color, in the several precincts, and to all those whose heads shall be found of sufficient size to wear a No. 6 hat, shall be entitled to vote at the ensuing election. All those whose heads will not fill a No. hat, are hereby prohib ited from getting withinorie1 hundred feet of the polls on J the said days of . 6. election."

In the name of the great Tycoon, are those 'eminent (because their husbands are rich) ladies of Salt Lake Oity realy afraid that even the adoption of a suffrage clause will unsex them. If they are realy so nearly akin to men, it furnishes absolute proof that tbe suffrage clause should be adopted, and their hubbies should vote for it with both hands. All those old fellows that have been fighting polygamy so long should also vote for the adoption of woman suffrage, for.If it will unsex those of the sisters whose aex is trembling in the balance, it would create; such a de- mand for those that are so strongly entrenched In their womanhood that suffrage would not, seriously effect them, that it could knock all feats as to a revival of polygamy higher than Gilroy's kite.
