every woman in the State. It would be useless to argue this if the right of
suffrage were a natural right. If it were a natural right, then women should
have it though the heavens fall. But if there be any one thing settled in the
long discussion of this subject, it is that suffrage is not a natural right, but is
simply a means of government, and the sole question to be discussed is
whether government by the suffrage of men and women will be better gov¬
ernment than by the suffrage of men alone.
Into my judgment, sir, there enters no element of the inferiority of
woman. It Is not that woman is inferior to man, but it is that woman is
different from man; that in the distribution of powers, of capacities, of
qualities, our Maker has created man adapted to the performance of certain
functions in the economy of nature and society, and woman adapted to the
performance of other functions.
Woman rules today by the sweet and noble influences of her character.
Put woman into the arena of conflict and she abandons these great weapons
which control the world, ard she takes into her hands, feeble and nerveless
for strife, weapons with which she is unfamiliar and which she is unable to
wield. Woman in strife becomes hard, harsh, unlovable, repulsive; as far
removed from that gentle creature to whom we all owe allegiance and to
whom we confess submission, as the heaven is removed from the earth.
The whole science of government Is the science of protecting life and
liberty and the pursuit of happiness. In the divine distribution of powers,
the duty and the right of protection rests with the male. It is so through¬
out nature. It is so with men, and I, for one, will never consent to part
with the divine right of protecting my wife, my daughter, the women
whom 1 love, and the women whom I respect, exercising the birthright of
man, and place that high duty in the weak and nerveless hands of those
designed by God to be protected rather than to engage in the stern warfare
of government. In my judgment, this whole movement arises from a false
conception of the duty and of the right of both men and women.
The time will never come when the line of demarcation between the
functions of the two sexes will be broken down. I believe it to be false phi¬
losophy; I believe that it is an attempt to turn backward upon the line of
social development, and that if the step ever be taken, we go centuries back¬
ward on the inarch towards a higher, a nobler and a purer civilization, which
must be found not in the confusion, but in the higher differentiation of the
sexes.”

On Woman’s Sphere
The question of Woman Suffrage is an issue before
the American people. Twelve states have adopted it.
four more states vote upon it this fall and it is strongly
urged that it become a platform demand of the national
political parties. It is therefore the privilege and the
duty of every voter to study carefully this subject. Hon.
Elihu Root, in discussing this question before the Consti¬
tutional Convention of New York, recently said in part
“I am opposed to the granting of suffrage to women,
because I believe that it would be a loss to women, to all
women and to every woman; and because I believe it
