colleges in this country attended by
many thousands of women.
“The same objection was brought
forward against women speaking in
public. When Lucy Stone in the mid-
dle of the last century was graduated
from Oberlin College, the first insti-
tution in this country to offer a col-
lege education to women, she was told
that one of the professors would read
her graduating essay, as it would be
indelicate for her to read it herself
before a promiscuous audience. She
refused to have it read, since she was
not permitted to read it herself.

were, and are still filling our spheres

“Let us look back at the revolution
in education of women. In the first
part of the Nineteenth Century, girls
were permitted to attend the public
schools in Boston only in the summer
months, when there were not enough
boys to fill them, and when the places
were not needed for boys. In 1826, a
high school was opened for girls in
cultured Boston, but such a hue and
cry was raised, that they were forced
to close the school at the end of the
year, and it was not until twenty-six
years later, in 1852, that a permanent
high school for girls was opened in
Boston. The same objection was
that as they have worked together in
the past to build up tha home, to the
tuture they will work tosether la th.

tions and the public good, and this
cannot help but have a beneficial ef-
fect on women and on society as a
whole. As women come more and
more in touch with the life of the
world, and as they become more vital-
ly interested, not merely in their own
little family circles, but in the great
world of men and women, their vision
will be broadened, and they will bring
to their homes a wider intelligence of
a broader culture and the responsibil-
ity which citizenship will place upon
them, will develop a finer, nobler
womanhood than we have known in
the past.
No Reason Against Suffrage.
“No, friends, if you will stop to
think, you will realise that there is
no real reason against women voting.
None that will stand analysis. All the
arguments that have been used
against every forward step, which
women have made in the past, are
brought forward to frighten the timid
away from suffrage. The same argu-
ments were used against the educa-
tion of women, property control, pub-
lic speaking, entrance into the profes-
sions, etc. We were told that each
of these would unsex women, would

6 Judge Jenkins set forth his argu-
mentsin opposition to the declarations
of those opposed to woman suffrage.
He contended that woman has suffi-
dent intelligence and judgment to ex-
ercise franchise; would, if given the
opportunity, acquaint herself with the
methods of the Government, and that
sbe is the moral superior of man.
. These statements, he said, answer the
arguments of the opposition.
g Judge Jenkins reviewed the accom-
plishments of women in history, and
told of women who had been leaders
to great movements.
“Let the descendants of the heroes
of the Alamo and. of San Jacintp arise
and give to woman her rights,” said
। Judge Jenkins, “and Texas will be-
come the brightest gem in the galaxy
of States."
Mayor Wooldridge Favors.
After the address by Judge Jenkins

In the group there were mn blgn

husbands and some were suffragists,
showing their interest in the turn of
affairs by their presenee.

which is the color chosen by the suf
fragists as their own.
The delectable four-course lunch-
eon was enjoyed amid friendly chit:
chat, interspersed with intar^ftty
talks by a few of the prominent guest,
Mrs. L. E. Walker, the capably pM-
dent of the Austin Suffragesociety,
acted as toastmistress and cleverly in-
troduced the speakers. First of all,
before the luncheon was begun she
called, upon the Rev. Paul Bonhams,
assistant pastor of the Congregational
Church, to invoke divine blessing.
The first speaker was Judge Wn-
Hams of the Railroad Commission
who made the admission that he was
for woman’s suffrage—not as a matter
of woman's rights, but as a matter of
government right. He gave instances
of the fact that the government a long
time ago gave the right of the ballot
to the freed men who, until they re-
ceived this privilege, were not free in
theory. Women are citizens equally,
but they are not free, as they have
not the rights of free citizens. The
ballot will give them freedom.
Miss Finnigan Tells of Work.
Miss Annette Finnigan was in-
troduced and made a charming im-
pression. She is sensible, whole-
souled and enthusiastic and stated she
was devoting her whole time to the
cause. She said this was her cond
visit to Austin, both being in behalf
of suffrage. The first visit was ahout
ten- years ago, when she came with
Miss Julia Runge, and there was 1
parlor meeting at the home »t Mrs.
Runge. There were about twenty or
thirty present She said the attitude
of Austin at that time was dif-
ferent from other cities of the State
and that for several years Austin was
the only town that kept the lamp of
suffrage burning. She said she was
especially interested in Austin for that
reason and because it was the Capital,
where the biggest fight would have
to take place—the battle for ballots
with the egislature. She waatM .to
see a strong organization here, for it
would be needed.
Indorsement Has Effect.
She spoke of the effect the in-
dorsement of suffrage by the General
Federation of Women’s Clubs would
have, especjally to the South. She
said when the club women began to
take, active interest in civics, econom-
ics, educational matters, they found
they were in politics and at a disad-
vantage. If they get the ballot, they
can then accomplish the work it is so
necessary for them to do. She said
she wanted Texas to lead the South
in granting woman the ballot, not
come trailing in behind the other
States, and she expressed the opinion
that when women wanted the ballot
so much that they would work for
it and sacrifice for it—wanted it with
all their hearts and souls—the men
of Texas would give it to them. It
rested with the women.
Mrs, Morgan Talk* Wittily.
Mrs. Forrest T. Morgan made a
witty little speech, declaring it was
folly to say that women wouldn’t use
the ballot if they had it, and quoted
statistics to prove her point. Her re-
marks were well token and were
heartily applauded.
Colonel Moore favored the guests
with a humorous song which proved
very entertaining.
Mrs. J. A. Jackson told in Interest-
ing fashion her interpretation of tha
commencement speech made by the
Hon. Clarence Ousley to the Univer-
stty Eraduates week. she was try-
ing to find the bug under the chip in
his remarks.
R. H. Griffith gave a most in-
teresting and entertaining recitetion
of hervisit to a suffragette meeting
in1ond on..where she resided several
months she told of the thrillng ad-
ventures the-suffragettes encounter
and the enthusiasm of the members
when those who are recupoceting

attend the meetings between arrests.

vicar, had told her that the English'
laboring man had no sense at all and
after living in London for some
months she said she wondered why
herestricted it to "laboring men.” She
said the men of England acknowl-
edge the justice of the suffragette
cause, but state they will not give
them the ballot She remarked that
under those circumstances what waa
there to do but fight for their rights?
Plea for Younger Women.
Miss Snow, a popular young school
teacher, made a plea for the younger
women to take an interest in this
vital question that is confronting the
people of all the nations.

Movement Reaches Texas.
“The suffrage movement in its
Eastward march is reaching Texas. It
will soon be our turn, as a State, to
decide whether we shall take our
stand on the side of right and prog-
ress. Of course, we shall have woman
suffrage in Texas and in the entire
United States before very long, but I
should like Texas to have the distinc-
tion of being the first Southern State
to grant the ballot to its women. We
ought to lead in this progressive
movement, and not come trailing to
after nearly every other State has
done justice to its women, and, I be-
lieve that we shall lead. I know that
