Thousands of men vote annually who neither wish nor seek political preferment. Surely a woman could, cast a ballot for what is right and-pure without seeking reward. ;; Ever since the earliest days of-pleading for this justice women have been told that they should not have the bal lot, because they cannot follow Tit by service in case .of war. ? Truly the last few years have exploded that fallacy. : In the awful struggle now going on in Europe women have taken up the tools that men laid down. Not only does she nurse the sick, care for the wounded, scrape line, make clothes, reap harvests and serve the armies in innumerable ways, but she has" "taken the places of the absent men onstreet cars and taxi-cabs,' women are drving drays, cleaning streets, aeting as tel egraph operators, bank clerks, ticket sellers, and faithfully performing the duties of scores of other positions. ; On the battle, field she -has proven herself daring, fearless, brave, patri otic and tender, as witness hundreds of Red Cross nurses wjio have calmly f aced shot and shell in their heroic ehorts for .-theirelief of suffering, Lucy Stone once said, "The soldier risks his life for his country, but in every in stance some woman risked her life that the soldier might be born.".

Several Federa tions of Women's Clubs have given equal suffrage hearty 1 endorsement In New York the vote was a splendid and important victory. 288 for, and 72 against. At the Pennsylvania conven tion the suffrage resolution was car ried by an overwhelming majority, only 28 dissenting votes among the 407 delegates. Hearty indorsement also in Missouri. J ' Hereafter women will have equal rights with. men at parish meetings in the New York diocese of the Protest ant Episcopal 'y church. . At their, con vention in November this measure was adopted with only a dozen votes Ift'tHe negative. Our. North Carolina men have ever been noted for their fair mindedness, their keen sense oi jus tice, and their willingness to deal with equal favor to all who are "within our borders, and for these reasons they will surely see that it is unjust to force women to obey, lays, which they have no power to make or change, yet under -which xhey are taxed equal ly with men.

Working men do not oelleve that they can protect themselves with out the right to vote. Housekeepers need the ballot to reg ulate the sanitary conditions under which they " and their . families must live.
