Bryan Speaks on Trmprranoe.
By Associated Press.
Atlantic City N. J. May 28. William J.
Bryan wss the principal speaker at s meet-
ing here yesterday under the auspices of the
Presbyterian general assembly which Is
holding Its 128th annual convention In this
city. Mr. Bryan spoke for an hour con-
fining his remarks chiefly to temperance.
"Tne most pathetic straggle In the world"
lie declared. "Is not that on the battle-
field between men innured to hardships
but the mother struggling to says her boy
from the Influence of the saloon."
Referring briefly to the European war
Mr. Bryan said It was America's duty to
relieve the suffering on both sides and
turn Uiem like prodigal sons -away from
the handicap which they feel and establish
a world-wide peace."
A nation rises no higher than Its source.
Motherhood is the source of every nation.
If you want your children to have a chance
to rise higher than you give their mothers
a chance now."
80 said Mrs. Alice Snltier Burke of New
York prominent suffragist who has led
suffrage psrades In New York City and who
has spoken In all parts of the country on
equal suffrage at an open-air meeting at
Cleveland square last night. Miss. Nell Rich-
ardson of Virginia who took s prominent
part In the New York state campaign for
equal suffrage who Is accompanying Mrs.
Burke across the continent In an automo
bile hi the Interest of suffrage also spoke
on votes for women.
Mea Cutting Own Nose.
Men" said Mrs. Burke "you're cutting
off your nose to spite your face. You com-
plain about women and children entering the
Industrial and business field working for
lower Wages and taking the bread from
your mouths. Give us the vote and we'll
see that eight-hour labor laws are passed
for women ss well as men and that women
won't be forced to work longer hours for
smaller wages. In New York a telegraph
company recently layed off forty men each
getting S60 a month to replace them with
forty women who'd work longer hours and
do the same work for MO a month. With
labor laws that votes for women would In
stltute this could not happen. Do you know
that there Is not s sute In the Union that
possesses an eight-hour working day ror
women that Isn't s suffrage sute? There
sre three million child laborers In the Unit
ed States. We want to make them put men
at wont at men's wages to do this work so
they can take care of these children.
"Men say they don't want women -to take
part In politics because politics Is too cor-
rupt Men who does all your cleaning up
for you? You can't keep your own homes
clean much less your politics. For heaven's
sake. If you men can't make politics clean
let the woman come In with her broom and
her scrubbing brush. That's her business.
She'll clean up for you. You admit you
Y do It alone.
"Some men say women don't have the In-
telligence to have the vou and know what
they're voting for. Half your population

Is women and believe me it's not the less
intelligent half either! Nlncty-flre per sent
or the criminals arc men. The women are
the chief support of the church the school
and every other Institution of advancement.
you give women the task of teacher to your
children let them gain practically all their
knowledge from women yet you say the
women haven't the intelligence the pupils
will have.
Child Labor Laws.
"Yon men of the soath boast of your
chivalry toward women yet the south Is the
section that has the worst women and child
labor laws In the United sutes. Most of
the child labor In the country is In the
south. The chivalry of your southern men
Is shown by classing your own wires with
the imbeciles the IdtoU snd the criminals
tne omy otnors not permitted to vote."
Miss Richardson told of the difficulties ex
perienced by the women of New York In
their suffrage campaign. "It's tlie fear of
what other people will say that keeps some
men anil most women from Using an active
part In advocating suffrage. It takes nerve
to go alter the vole and It's worth righting
for. Some people condemn the militant
methods or some suffraglsu. Would this
country have secured Independence 'without
miiitance?
Women Inspire Good Laws.
"Women even where they don't vote. In-
spire most or the good laws. The machine
politicians Uke them up and get the credit
ror tnem. Most women thank goodness
are no more politicians than most men.
Votes ror women will do away with ma-
chine politics which you hsve In every city.
Your political machine doesn't want the
women to vote because It knows. It can't
control the vote or the women. Votes for
women means the death of the political ma-
chine. "You women of Texas have an easy thing
compared with the women or eastern sutes.
The vole in your legislature on the question
was ss to w against suffrage. Go to Austin
snd ask that the bill be submitted to the
voters snd sufrrsge will carry."
Following the addresses Miss Richardson
took off her hat desronced from the stand
from which the speeches were made and
went among the members of the audience

York to be used In the aurfrage cause

Final Rehearsals Heine
Held for Elks Minstrel
Final rehearsals are being held this week
st tne Kiks club house ror the Elk minstrel
show Thursday and Friday nights.
Charles A. Armstrong the director snd
Msx Miller the exalted ruler and king pin
or the fun making machine declare It Is
going to be the biggest and best minstrel
show ever given In F.I Ileso.
As Armstrong stood at the plano lsst night
snd led the rehearsal it was evident that
his smile was one of confidence and satla-
ractlon was merited for the singing wss
splendid. The chorus numbers were beau
tlful in their uniformity and the antics of
the end men even without their burnt cork
makeups were enough to make the other
members or the company hold their sides
In laughter.
Msx Miller never told a story better when
be was doing minstrelsy ss a regular
means of earning hla meal tickets snd Jul
lus Albers puts a better finish on his song
ana aance than he does on a diamond set
ting In bla regular line of work. Barry
Hagedon Is about the funniest undertaker
one could Imagine and K lop ton Smith and
the others who are also to handle the
bones snd tambourines got Just as many
laughs snd this from men who have bean
watching and listening to them for mors
than two weeks.
The public can Imagine whs to expect
when this bunch lines up on the sUge of
the Texas Grand In their burnt cork facial
coatings and their handsome purple trim
med dress sulU.
"Some show" the reporter muttered after
s abort visit In the rehearsal room. "Some
show" adequately describes what It Is go
lng to be too unless all Indications are
wrong.
