By ANNIE I. LARKIN.
One of the fundamental principles
announced In the Declaration of In
dependence Is that governments de
rive their just powers from the consent
of the governed. How can the polltt
<^1 condition of women be reconciled
with this? Government In the United
States has power to tax women who
hold property; to divorce them from
their husbands; to fine, Imprison and
execute them for certain offenses.
Whence do these governments derive
their power? They are not Just, es
they are not derived from the consent
of the women thus governed. Govern
ments decree to women In some states
half their husbands' property; In oth
ers one-third; In some a woman, on
her marriage, is made to yield all her
projterty to her husband; In others.- to
retain a portion, or the whole. In her
n hands. Whence do governments
derive the unjust power of thus dis
posing of property without the con
sent of the governed? The democrat
ic principle condemns all this as wrong
and requires the equal political rep
resentation of all rational beings.
Children, Idiots and orimitisls during
the time of sequestration are the only
fair .exceptions. The case is so plain
that 1 might close It here. But It Is
Interesting to Inquire how so obvious a
decision has lyen so evaded as to leave
to women no political rights whatever.
The question has been asked from time
to time In more countries than one:
How can obedience to the laws be re
quired of women when no woman has
either actually or virtually given any
assent to any law? No plausible an-
wer has, as far as I can discern, been
offered# for the good reason that no
plausible answer can be devised.
The most principled democratic
writers on governments Have on this
Mubject sunk Into fallacies as dis
graceful as any advocate of despotism
ha* adduced. In fact, they have thua
sunk from being for the moment advo
cates of despotism. Jefferson says:
•Were our state a pure democracy, In
which all the Inhabitant* should meet
together to transact all their business,
there would yet be excluded from their
deliberations: Infants, until arrived at
years of discretion. 2. Women who, to
prevent depravation of moral*, could
not mix promiscuously In public meet
ings of men. Woman’s lack of will
and property Is more like the true
cause of her exclusion from the rep
resentation than that which Is actu
ally set down against her. As If
there could be no means of conducting
public affair* but by promiscuous
meeting, as If there would be more
danger In promiscuous meetings for
political business than In such meet
ing for worship, for oratory, music,
for dramatic entertainments, for any
of the thousand transactions of civ
ilized life.
One thing Is pretty clear—that all
those Individuals whose Interests are
Involved In those of other Individual*
may be struck off without Inconve
nience. In this light women may be
regarded the Interest of almost all of
whom are Involved either In that of
their fathers or In that of their hus
band*. The word almost In Mr. Mill**
second sentence rescues women from
the exclusion he proposes as long ns
there ure women who have neither
husbands nor fathers. His proposi
tion remain* an absurdity. The true
democralc principle Is that no person's
Interest can be ascertained to be Iden
tical with those of another person.
This allows the exclusion of none but
Incapable*. The Inetrest of women who
imve fathers and husband* can never
be Identical with their*. While there
1* a necessity for laws to protect
women against their husbands and
fathers, this statement Is not worth
another word. Home who desire that
there should be on equality of proper
ty between men and women oppose
representation on the ground that po
litical duties would be Incompatible
with the other duties which women
have to discharge. The reply to this
Is that women are the best Judges
here. Got! has given time and power
for the discharge of all duties, and If
He had not, It would be for women to
decide which they would take, and
which they would leave. Rut their
guardian* follow the ancient fashion of
deciding what Is best for their wards,
and the best friends of half the human
race peremptorily decide for them as
to their rights, their duties, their feel
ings, their power. In all these cases
the |H*rsons thus cared for feel that
the abstract decision rest* with them
selves; that though they may be com
pelled to stibm'.:, they need not ac
quiesce. It Is pleaded that half of the
human race docs acquiesce In the de
cision of the other half, as to their

may have his nnlmnl wants supplied
without being troubled with human
rights or duties. Acquiescence like thla
is un argument which cuts the wrong
way for those who use It. But this ac
quiescence Is only partial, and to give
any semblance of strength to the plea
—for one, I do not acquiesce. I de
clare that whatever obedience I yield
to the laws of the society In which I
live Is a mntter between not the com
munity and myself, but my Judgment
nnd my will. Any punishment Indict
ed on me for the breach of the law I
should regard as so much gratuitous
Injury, for to those laws I have never,
actually or virtually, nssented. I know
that there are women In thla country
who agree \\ Ith me In this. The plea
of acquiescence Is invalidated by us.
It Is pleaded that by enjoying the
protection of some laws women give
their nesent to all. This needs but a
brief answer. Any protection thua con
ferred Is. under woman's circum
stances, a boon beatowed at the pleas
ure of those In whose power she Is; a
boon of any sort Is no compensation
for the privation of something else. The
truth Is that while there Is much said
about the sphere of woman, two wlde-
Iv different notions are entertnlned of
what Is meant by the phrase—the nar

WHY THIS LABEL?
fwmmmmm.
Maybe a natural question If your
printing ha* never borne It.
Perfectly natural. If you don’t know
the class of work thl* label appear*
upon and the methods that go with It.
HQndred* of business men anked
•’Why This label?’’ for years—before
they had It on thsir printing.
Thsn they found the answer In cor
rectly executed work that stood the
test of service, and helped build up
trade for them.
They have no doubt now. Why
should you—when we stand ready to
convince you?
