The “Reform Against Nature. "
The house has gone at the female sulf-
rngs question in the right way in one
sense at least. Instead of beating about
to give a little of the privilege to some
women in some cases, it. puts the case
boldly with the proposition to knock out
the word “male" front the qualifications
of citizenship and give to all females
who are of age the voter’s privilege. To
give them some privileges is in principle
the same as giving them all. This tre-
mendous enlargement of the snfl'rage—
more than doubling the number of the
voters—would be one of the. most revo-
lutionary social changes that n legisla-
tive body cottld project upon the state.
Conservative CJnnecticut has rej- cted it
year after year: and the prospect of its
passage wruld cause in 1.0 other class of
