SUMAS AND
SUFFRAGE
|
(Seattle P.I.)
Woodrow Wilson is only half con
verted to the cause of woman suf
frage. William Howard Taft believes
it is bound to triumph, but counsels
slow approach to Its general adoption <
and Is yet a Doubting Thomas. Wil
liam Jennings, pacificatory always,
seems satisfied to allow the states to
settle franchise questions while he fills
Chautauqua dates.
Hut Humus, Whatcom county, Wash
ington, In George Parkinson, furnishes
a full-fledged suffragist In whom there
Is positively no guile, uncertainty or
dissembling and In whose philosophy
women are not only as well equipped
right now as men to manage public
affairs, but infinitely better equipped.
Witness the following:
'Sumus( Wash., Oct, 7, 1916.
“. Editor Humas Advocate:
"I think you will agree with me that
woman's franchise is the greatest and
most glorious social reform, socially
and politically that has taken place
during the past century.
"We all wish to see women on an
equality with men. For my part 1
think them fur superior in most things.
"Most thinking men have come to
the conclusion that women are to be
preferred to men In commercial and
scientific pursuits. 1 am for women's
ability first, last and all the time. Wo
men are honeHt, truthful, dependable,
dean and smart, not bribable.
“If the women will get together and
form a club (social reform) I shall be
pleased to hand them a check for $50 to
assist them. Qet a mayoress and a full
council of women and I will guarantee
a reduction of taxes to the amount of
50 per cent per annum and at the tame
time keep roads, drainage, etc., in bet
er shape than what they are now.
"We can also make u saving of $3 •
000 per year in electric lighting.
“QEORQE PARKINSON.'
Here is a concrete propositon, back
ed by solemn guarantee and cash in
hand. A mayoress and a full council
of women, and 60 per cent reduction
of taxes, $3,000 annual reduction in
lighting in any quarter.
Will Sumas wallow in high taxes in
the face of such a gilt-edged oppor
tunity?
Holiday greetings mailed now will
