MTTiyGER, Editor H. R. CARROLL, Business Manager SKNSIIJI.K TALK TO THE 81FFKAGKTTES Life. wWh imparts an immense amount of common sene in the form of apparently trivial talk, has the fol lowing to say of the suffragette par ade in New York recently and .some of the lessons to be drawn therefrom: "The suffragist ladies had a beauti ful parade. Up In the fifties on Fifth avenue before it started it was like an afternoon reception. Lots of ladies, mostly white, but some colored; ban ners of beauty, and other banners with edifying announcements on them; as Kood a line of spring hats as has been shown this year, and all styles and sizes of interesting? women in great variety of attire! The shock was less than we expect ed. After all. as some one has said, there is no violent difference between some suffragists walking on the side walk and the same suffragists walk ing down the middle of the street. The mere fact of women in the mass cannot scare anybody who is used to New York. There were three or four thou sand women in the parade, which is about the number that one sees in a subway train coming uptown at six o'clock, but the women in the parade were incomparably a better sight than nrnmon tin th subwav train. To come uptown on "a six o'clock subway train Is to be horrified at the way the fluttering masses of girls are jammed into the cars. If you want to be ap palled go and see that. Hut there was nothing appalling about the suffragist parade; plenty of room for every lady; the oavement very clean; the cops on horseback riding ahead; the bands playing "Don't Get Gay with the Girls": the crowds attentivet appre ciative and smiling; everybody polite and admiring. It is many a day since a mile of marchers have been so much admired in New York. It was Just another proof of the en tire freedom of American women. If there is any door they wish to open they have only to turn the handle Nothing is locked up from them. As evidence .of public respect for women, the parade was a great success and worth doing. Its bearing on the suf frage was not so clear. Those hand some ladles did not seem like an op pressed class protesting against denial of their rights. They semed much more like the proprietors of the town out to give their dependents a benefit. Now, then .to get back to the eternal verities about votes for women. Heretofore the man has usually built the house, and he and the woman have lived in it. Life is not a detail of government, but government is a detail of life. To maintain government is like keeping a roof overhead, under which life can go on. The life that is to go on under that roof is for the most part in the hands of woman. Is it necessary, as the suffragists marched to persuade us, that with her own hands woman must bu'ild and maintain this house she lives in? if there is a male job it is the job of the structural Ironworkers. There is no sign of any invasion of that oc cupation by women. The office build ing may be full of womii clerks and typewriters, a woman may have plan ned the arrangement of its rooms, and women may spend its rents, but the building is man built, and stands by virtue of the brains and brute force of man. Ami so stands political government It shelters woman. Inside of its frame all their activities proceed. In its form, and in the alterations that are We Carry everything that is handled a Class always making in it, they have an am ple, often controlling voice. In the business that is done in it they share, and share and spend the profits of that business. Is it necessary also that they shall swing up on the iron beams and drive the red hot rivets? Is there to be no division of labor, no distinction of duty and employment, between men and women? That is a question that street par ades do not touch. Women have tre mendous duties in this world. Life ress heavily upon their courage, their intelligence and their endurance. It is hard to accomplish any considerable thing without their backing. They make most of the decisions that direct the destinies of men. They make the very men themselves, bring them into the world, shape them in their tender years, inspire ana steer ana cnensn themin their maturity, and cheer them in their age. Are women in general out of conceit with their own product and persuaded that it is no longer fit to keep even a roof of government over their heads? If they are. it is because they have neglected their first duty and have not made good enough men. Hut it seems to ls'that a very mall proportion of them are so dis atisfied. and that ladylike parade down Fifth Avenue tended to confirm hat impression."
