has been unable to cross the Channel,
owing to lack of ?hipping facilities.
The Svvis? delegates telegraphed to?

SUFFRAGISTS DUPED
AGAIN IN JERSEY
Retain Faith in Man De?
spite Inconsistency of
Read Act.
CONSPIRACY TALK
RAISED BY LEADERS
Attempt to Make Measure Us?
less Seen in Mix-Up
Over Ballots.
It has often been remarked that
woman's faith in man is never killed,
no matter what the creature ?Joes.
Some of the New Jersey suffragists
are proving this, Waef ?coin ?ike a
plot has just raised its hea'l a plot
te ,|neer the bill providing for sub?
mission to the voters of the state the
constitutional amendm.'iit enfranchis?
ing womer and what happens?
Hero and there voices of New Jersey
women are heard denouncing per?
fidious man enough of them to make '
anti-suffragists feel that they are still
needed to uphold and defend man's
nichts. But in the main the suffrage
leaders there say clamly that they are
sure ther? was no malignant intent in
the inconsistency in the Read act, ?
which lea,I?. Governor Fielder to fear
that it la invalid, and that they have
confidence that whatever is wrong will
be made right by a special ,-tessiort of
the Legislature.
Is this another case where woman
shows she realizes that she has got
to be as wise a? the serpent and as
gentle as the dove if she is going to
get her way? Or do New Jersey women
htill really trust their politicians, in
spite of tho fact that this is the third
time their bill has been queered by
come so-called "mistake"?
Mrs. George P. Vickars. of Jersey
City, president of the Kqual Franchise
League, knitted her brows yesterday as
fhe looked at the item calling atten?
tion to the fact that in one part of th,?
Reed bill it says that county clerks
??hall furnish the ballots and in an
oth?r that the Secretary of State shall
furnish them, and that the Attorney
General may decide this to be a fatal
error.
"There is somebody who has been '
trying to make our measure ineffect?
ive," she said. "Somebody who is in a i
high position and who recently has ac?
quired added power. No, I will name
no names. What is the u*e of an?
tagonizing him and making him still
more an enemy? Besides, I am sure he
won't be abl? to prevent our cause
from coming to the voters. The Gov?
ernor la on our side.
"Governor Fielder hss been perfect?
ly splendiil, and if this bill is decided
invalid he will call a special session of
the Legislature to remedy It. The
Lefialature, too, is acting in good
faith.
"As for the putting off of our spe- '?
cial election to October 19, we don't
feel badly about that. It will prevent
our exercising the franchise this year,
but then holding our election on a
regiatratioa ?lay will save the state '
, 00, and that pleases us, for we
believe in economy in politics."
"I haven't seen the Read measure,"
Mrs. Feickert said cautiously, "so I
don't like to sny much. Hut I believe
New Jersey men have about made up
their minds that we are determined
to have the vote, and that they might
as well g v,' in."
Mrs. ( olvin ?aid their suffrage craft
had certainly had a stormy passage
over the legislative sea.
"Last year," she recollected, "af*er
the amendment had been passed the
first time by the Legislature, it came up
for the second passage, and should
have passed, only after we hail been
assured by the men in charge that it
was properly advertised, we discovered
that in one of the twenty-one counties
the advertising had been neglected.
And so it was necessary to reintroducc*
the measure, and a year was lost.
"This year the measure was nearly
wrecked by the removal of a comma
from one of the section?. All these
errors do look uueer, don't they? But
we feel sure that all will be made
right"
But not all the women are so gentle
with the men. For ?nstame, there is
Mrs. Alexander Christie, of Rayonne,
an eighty-year-old worker m the cause.
Mrs. Christie is honorary preswlent of
tie Political Study ill of Rayonne,
and keenly interested in the measuro
'hat wil! come before New Jers?y men
October if it isn't wrecked.
"This alleged 'mistake' is a political
scheme," she declared yesterday. "Oh,
I've seen a lot of their tricks in my
eighty years of life. But the women
ure going to come into their own."

Variety is the word this
week.
To emphasize the variety
of Spring suits we have at all
the popular prices, we ore de?
voting most of our windows
each day to showing some or
thesuitsat or about one price.
The object is three-fold?
. To show the handsome
new fabrics more completely
than is possible in our every
day window displays, which
cover a variety of wearables.
To impress on every man
the fact that whatever the
girth of his pocketbook?we
are there with attractive suits.
To illustrate vividly that
though we specialize on no
one price, at every one of
the usual steps from $?20 to
$40 we have enough different
patterns, not only to meet
every shade of taste but to
stock a good sized clothing
store by themiselves.
To-day the Variety Show
begins with suits at $35 and
$40 displayed, and we hope
you will take a look at our
windows when passing any
one of our four stores.
Everything men and boys
wear.
