On* of the fundamental principles
announced In the Declaration of In
dependence la that governments de
rive their Just powers from the consent
of the governed. • How can the polltl
cal. 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, as
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
property to her husband; In others, to
retain a portion, or the whole. In her
own h&nda. Whence do governments
derive the unjust power of thua 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 criminals during
the time of sequestration are the only
fair exceptions. Thff rase Is so plain
that I might close It here. But It Is
Interesting fo Inquire how so obvious a
decision has been 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 W
either actually or virtually given any
assent to any law? No plausible an
swer 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
subject sunk Into .fallacies as dis
graceful as any advocate of despotism
has adduced. In fact, they have thus
sunk from being for the moment advo
cates of despotism. Jefferson says:
"Were our state a pure democracy, In
which all the Inhabitants should meet
together to trunsact 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 morals, 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. ' A* If
there could be no means of conducting
public affairs but by promiscuous
meeting, as If there would be more
dunger In promiscuous meetings for
political business than In such meet
ing for worship, fer 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 Individuals
may be struck off without Inconve
nience. In this light women may be
regarded the Interest of almost nil of
whom arc Involved either In that of
their fathers or In that of their hus
bands. The word almost In Mr. Mills'
second sentence rescues women from
the exclusion’he proposes us long as
there are women who have neither
husbands nor fathers. His proposi
tion remains an absurdity. The true
democrat? principle Is that no person's
Interest can be nscertalned to be Iden
tical with those of another |»erson.
Tills allows the exclusion of none but
Incapable*. The Inetrest of women who
have fathers and husbands can never
be Identical with theirs. While there
Is n necessity for laws to protect
women against their husbands and
fathers, this statement Is not worth
another word. Some who desire that
there should be an equality of proper
ty between men und women oppose
representation on the ground that po
litical duties would be Incompatible
1th the other duties which women
have to discharge. The reply to this
that women are the best Judges
here. God has given time and power
for the discharge of all duties, und If
He had not, It would be for women to
decide which they would take, and
which they would leave. But their
guardians 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 (arson* thus cared for feel that
the abstract decision rests with, them
selves; that though they may b* com
pelled to submit, they need not ac
quiesce. It Is pleaded that half of the
human race does acquiesce In the de
cision of the other half, ns to their

right* and duties, and some instances
not only of submission, but of acqui
escence. The women of New Jersey
went to the polls and voted at state
elections—1797-1800. The general term.
Inhabitant, stood unqualified as It will
again, when the true democratic prin
ciple comes to be fully understood. A
motion was made to correct the inad
vertence, and It was done, as a matter
of course, without any appeal, as far
as I could learn, from the persons about
to be Injured. Such acquiescence
proves nothing but degradation of the
Injured party. It Inspires the same
emotion of pity us the supplication of
the freed slave, who kneels to his mas
ter to restore him to slavery, that he
may have his animal wants supplied
without being troubled with human
rights or duties. Acquiescence like this
Is an argument which cuts the wrong
way for those who use It. But this ac
quiescence Is only partial, find 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 n matter between not the com
munity and myself, but my judgment
and my wifi. Any punishment Inflict
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, assented. I know
that there are women In this country
who ngree with me In this. The\»lea
of acquiescence Is Invalidated by us.
It Is pleaded that by enjoying the
protection of some laws women give
their assent to all. This needs but a
brief answer. Any protection thus con
ferred Is, under woman's circum
stances, a boon bestowed 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 suld
about the sphere of woman, two wide
ly different notion* are entertained of
what Is meant by the phrase—the nar
row and to the ruling party the more
convenient notion Is that sphere ap
pointed by men and bounded by their
ideas of propriety, a notion from
which any and every woman may fair
ly dissent. The broad and true con
ception Is of the sphere appointed by
God and bounded by the powers which
He has bestowed. This commands the
assent of man and woman, and only
the question of powers remains to be
proved. That woman has power to
represent her own Interest no one can
deny. The fearful and absurd Images
which are perpetually called up to per
plex the question, the Images of women
on wool sacks in England and under
canopies In America, have nothing to
do with the matter. The principle
being once established, the method will
follow easily and under a remarkable
transmutation of^he ludicrous Into the
sublime. The kings of Europe would
have laughed mightily two centuries
ago at the Idea of a commoner, with
out robes, crown or scepter, stepping
Into the throne of n strong nation;
yet who dared to laugh when Wash
ington’s voice greeted the new world
from the presidential chair. The prin
ciple of the equal rights of both halves
of the human race Is all we have to do
with here. It Is the true democratic
principle, which can never be serious
ly controverted, and only for a short
time evaded, governments can derive
their Just powers only from the con
sent of the governed.
DICKEY TIKES UP
RELIANCE AGENCY
James L. Dickey, Jr., the successful
Atlanta representative of the Queen
and German-Atnerican fire Insurance
companies, branched out Into a new
line this week. He was on Wednes
day appointed manager for Georgia
of the Reliance Life Insurance Com
pany, of Pittsburg, Pa., a strong young
company that has already acquired a
good volume of business In tho state
since Its entrance In 1904. It was or
ganised In 1903 and now writes an av
erage business of over $700,000 n
month.
Mr. Dickey succeeds In the manage
ment for this state the firm of Milledge
* Baxter, who recently resigned, ami
who have represented the company
since It began business In Georgia
Captain Milledge and R. B. Baxter will
both remain with the Reliance and will
devote all their time to field work.
Three Insurance companies of other
states this week announced their in
tention of entering Georgia and it Is
probable that all of them will be rep
resented at Atlanta In a very short
time.
The Mississippi Home Insurance
Company of Vicksburg Is one. It is
an old established company of j
reputation and was not Involved In the
San Francisco conflagration.
The National Lumber Insurance
Company of Buffalo, N. Y., has filed Its
stfltement with the Georgia Insurant 0
department. It hns $200,000 capital and
$5t),00rt surplus, with total assets
$253,694.
The Dixie Fire Insurance Company <-f
Greensboro, N. (\. has about completed
the purchase of sufficient Georgia
bonds to make the $10,000 deposit
qulred by the stnte and will shor
be licensed. The Dixie started about
a month ago on a larger scale than has
heretofore been attempted by South
ern fire companies, and Its strong back
ing assures It a successful future. It
has $500,000 cnpltal stock.

WHY THIS LABEL? |
Maybe a natural question If your
printing has never borne It.
Perfectly natural, if you don't know HI,
the class of work this label appears gg
upon and the methods that go with it. —^
of business men asked
wny This label?" for years—before *5^
they had It on their printing.
Then they found the answer In cor-
rectly executed work that stood the ggl
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?
