Per Cent. of Women in California Do Not Want Vote, Says Mrs. Colbarn Leading Federationist Considers Conditions Before and Since Equal Suffrage and Sees Possibility of Reaction That May Lead to Abolition of Franchise--Notes Marked Effect on Individual Women and Asks Sisters to Stop to Think What Consequences of War Will Mean.

EIGHTH ARTICLE. Special Correspondence from a Member of The Eagle Editorial Staff. San Francisco, September 29 -There are al lot of women in California, and especially in San Francisco, remain to be converted to equal suffrage, although the question is supposed to have been settled when the men voters extended the franchise to women. is no State, organized opposition to equal suffrage in San Francisco, but there are women who have never ceased to raise their voice against the granting of suffrage. Some, having opposed woman suffrage on principle, now base their opposition upon actual experience.

Mrs. Frederick H. Colburn, press chairman of the San Francisco district of the of Women's Clubs, is a prederation "anti." She votes, she says, because she feels it her duty to do so, but she feels more strongly than ever that the granting of equal suffrage was a mistake. Mrs. Colburn, who is now the wife of Frederick H.

Colburn, secretary of the California Bankers Association assistant manager of the Clearing House, is known as a lecturer and eral books dealing with Indian archaeologist, and has written ten sevlegends. "Yermah, the Dorado." is one of these, written under the name of Frona Eunice Wait. Mrs. Colburn was not afraid of a note book, and it is possible to give her views, just as she expressed them in a talk that took place in her attractive apartment. Here is what she said: Say Women Take Very Little Interest in Elections.

"Women take very little intrest in elections, and the registration at the present time, if it shows any increase over the past, is easily explained. The last election was on the question of issuing bonds for Spring Valley water. This was preceded by a lot of agitation. The question had been put up before and the voters, with characteristic judgment, voted it down. The Spring Valley bond issue was a thing in which a large number of women were interested, especially housewives and the wives of workmen, and there was an unusually heavy registration.

One of the curious things about the campaign was that this was one reform measure that has been voted down. "Some of the shining suffrage do lights were especially active before election. They hired jitneys and went down on the waterfront and harangued and urged them to vote for the measure. When the returns were all in it was found that it was working element, in the sections the suffragists had done their campaigning, that had voted it down. had been supported in other districts.

Another queer thing was parade of the I. W. which was gotten up as a protest against labor conditions and the oppression of the poor by the rich. The paraders made only two visits. One was to Governor Johnson.

and the other was to the office of the Examiner--their friends. It might have been expected that they would go down into the banking district. "This year there has been a heavy registration because of interest in the non-partisan election i bill. By the passage of this measure Governor Johnson hopes to prolong his hold in the State by abolishing all the old parties. You know the Republicans were disfranchised at the last Presidential election.

There were no Republicans on the ballot, and we were AMUSEMENTS-BROOKLYN.

The Ebell Club of Los Angeles, with a membership of 1,500, the largest club and the mother club of the district. withdrew from the Federation, because certain women were trying to use the Federation for political purposes. "Other clubs are in sympathy with the Ebell Club, and if it rejoins the Federation, as it probably will, it will be for the, purpose of maintaining its standing order to fight the Johnson machine. At the next convention you may look for a warm time. The matter will be put squarely before the convention.

Convinced 80 Per Cent. of Women in State Do Not Want Suffrage. "I am that 80 per cent. of the State do not want convinced. suffrage.

The suffragists prove that themselves by keeping up the agitation here. The latest, the Woman Voters Convention, which was really the Congressional Union, was a farce, and broke up in a row. The figures at the exposition gates show that the attendance was not 500 above the normal week-day totals. If it had not been for a certain curiosity to see Mrs. Belmont it would not have been as large as that.

I don't there are fifty members of the Congressional Union here. "The rank and file of suffragists realize that they have to continue to keep up interest in California. I vote because I feel that, as it was forced upon us, we should use it, and because my husband asked me to at last election. We exchanged ideas; he advised me on certain points and accepted my views on others, and we marked our ballots alike. But if we had a referendum now I would vote against suffrage, based upon actual experience.

have only to consider the position of women before and since equal suffrage. Take their legal status: Before a widow could file a homestead on her husband's estate and exempt $5,000 from any debt whatever. Today a wife may be sued for alimony; she must assume responsibility and pay rent and house bills if her husband fails to do so. It is possible for a husband to run her into debt. He may even buy a ring for another woman and make his wife pay for it.

A wife cannot exempt a single cent, and if her husband dies she is liable for his debts. If she acquires property later, it can be taken from her to pay the husband's creditors. If the husband goes bankrupt the wife is liable. "This has come since women have had the franchise. Women do not begin to have the same status in law.

If they are citizens they must expect that. They cannot go to court as they used to and weep a little and play upon the sympathies of a Judge and jury and get a verdict. "Women take very little interest in elections. There are fully 100,000 eligible women voters in San Francisco. many of them ever register or vote? The registration at its heaviest shows that the interest and excitement is all over and the percentage of those who oppose suffrage is larger than before.

There is no organized effort against it for the reason that most of us feel that if it is left alone it will fall through of its own dead weight. I see a possibility of a reaction that may lead to the abolition of suffrage here. No one knows that better than the suffragist leaders, who keep on agitating. "Red Light Conditions Worse Than Before." "One thing that women fought for and put through was the red light abatement law. Conditions are worse now than before.

Under the former system we at least knew where the districts were, and there was some kind of medical supervision. Now we don't know where the red light element is. It is scattered here, there and everywhere. I favor segregation. The opponents talk about commercialized vice.

There has always been this kind of vice and has always been commercialized. "It can't be anything else. A regulated, segregated district is the best that can be done to control it. There has never been any 'danger from organizing the tenderloin vote. There is not enough interest.

Voting does not appeal to the underworld. "A large majority of business women are opposed to voting, for they feel that women do not know enough about public affairs to vote intelligently. As to what suffrage has done for women, as women, I must say that they have become pastmistresses of every bit of political trickery. They have learned the art of of picking one name on a ticket and voting 80 that the candidate who gets the woman vote will run ahead of his ticket. And still I don't believe there is a suffragist leader in the State who could state clearly the difference in principles of the national parties.

They are not concerned with national issues, or principles. They are out for what they can gain. "It is expected that Rolph will be elected Mayor in the coming election on the vote of the women. The reason is sentimental. Schmitz, the Mayor at the time of the municipal scandal, is running against Rolph, which is expected to elect Rolph.

Gallagher, the third candidate, is Johnson's man. He has no chance. We are sick of reformers. They have prostrated our industries. Between Wilson and the tariff, and Johnson, we have had a siege.

I have been in Mexico, where I studied. archaeology, and where we have interests, and I think 1 it nothing short of criminal the way President Wilson has conducted Mexican affairs. He should have recognized Huerta, not for what he was, but for what he represented. He had all the more stable element with him. This is the Diaz clement, and the one that must be recognized before the country can be pacified.

Villa is so bad it is hard to believe that President Wilson could even negotiate with him. No person who has been in Mexico and knows conditions there could give the Wilson policies their approbation. Effect of Woman Suffrage on the Individual Woman. "Coming back to woman suffrage. The effect upon the individual woman has been marked.

It has put lines in her face; sharpened her temper; given her a hawk-like expression, and lowered the whole tone of the public relationship of men and women. Women now stand in the cars; they are crowded away from ticket windows; men have ceased to remove their hats in elevators, and in other ways have altered their attitude. That is a permanent result, and it is a high price for women to pay for the right to vote. Modesty, reserve, idealism, are now represented by men. "Romanticism and idealism here today is represented by the Grove plays of the Bohemian Club, to which women have but once been admitted.

That is a center where we do have some idealism. Feminine modesty is a matter for police regulation. It is no longer necessary for men to go to suggestive musical comedy shows. They can see the same suggestiveness on the streets. The way women and girls dress, the disgraceful dances, and general conduct.

are enough to make women who care weep. All that was once considered so fine in woman has been sacrificed. "There is something that weighs very heavy upon my heart, and con- MOHAWK MADE WITH SLIP-OVER BUTTONHOLE TIE SLIDES EASILY Lion OLDEST BRAND AMERICA (UNITED SHIRT COLLAR TROY.N.Y. cerns the future of women in this country. It is the new condition that is to come in the standing 01 women as a result of the war.

It is something that women are making no effort to meet. At the close of the war one of two standards of civilization will have prevailed. It will be either the English or the German ideal for the control, of the sea. is the core of the dispute. Neither the German or the English has a high ideal of woman.

The English ideal of woman is deplorable; the German is worse. "There is no difference between our ideal and the English. The English poets place woman on a pedestal, just as ours do. The difference is in the practice. American men have in the past shown a respect and reverence for women unknown in countries on the other side.

Stop to think what the consequences of the war will mean. The preponderance of women to men in Europe before the war will be increased tremendously. The war is simply killing off the men and leaving the women. This must inevitably lead to a lowering of the masculine ideal of woman in Europe, and she will be treated worse than before. When the men of this country see how the women of other countries are treated they will no longer place woman upon a pedestal.

"Christianity and all the forces and standards of civilization are being weighed in the balance, and the close of the war must bring different standards. The preponderance of women is to have a great effect. If men do not again become tyrants, and put us back where we were centurles ago, it will be due to a goodness of heart. None of the women crying for Ity with men are thinking of this, and equalyet it is one of the great vital things that the next few years will decide. "The thing that hurts me most 1s the silent, stunned, attitude of men toward women today.

They look at women as though wondering what she would do next. You see it in the attitude of employers of women, who no longer show them deference, since they now insist upon taking care of themselves. Men rush ahead of women to board cars, and it is the old-school man who opens a door or lifts his hat. These are some of the results of equal suffrage and the agitation for the equality of men and women that have come under my observation." THE KISS OF APOLLO. "The Kiss of Apollo," by M.

G. D. Branchi (Duffeld Co.) is a pretty romance with a charming heroine whose career from childhood is portrayed in entertaining style by the author. Judith has a provoking kind of confidence in herself even as a child, and her source opinion on weighty matters are a of considerable shock to her married sister, with whom she lives. "It is like having the stark naked truth about," her sister writes to her brother.

They are naturally anxious to give Judith the best of starts on life's highway but the little maid has opinions of her own and sticks to them. Her life in Lorretz is full of experiences. She marries the wrong man and as a result sees a bit of the misery of life but the author gives the story a pretty ending with Judith happily united to the man who best pleases the reader.

not allowed to vote for Taft. This non-partisan measure has been forced upon the people, at a cost of $750,000, in effort to perpetuate the Johnson machine. We once thought the Southern Pacific had a powerful machine, but we know now that it did its work amateurishly, and some of us are begging the Southern Pacific to come back. Women Going to Put the Quietus on Governor Johnson They Say. "The people in other States say that in matters' of government if there is anything so wild that Kansas doesn't do it.

California will. But there are a lot of really sane people here, and there is going to be a line up on the Johnson programme. There are plenty of members of the Republican, Democratic, Prohibition and Socialist parties, and they all object to being wiped out. There has been talk of help from national parties, but we are going to put the quietus on Governor Johnson ourselves. It is our problem and we are going to settle it.

"All this has a direct bearing upon woman suffrage in California. The State Federation of Women's Clubs made a part of the Johnson machine. It was certain women, in the organization, working with Johnson who 'put over' a suffrage, but their power is growing beautifully less. There was a split in the Federation at the convention in May over this very question. The Federation has 35,000 members.

There are about 6,000 members in the San Francisco district. The constitution especially prescribes that there shall be no political or religious activity. "The question of political activity was brought up at the convention and tabled by as smooth a bit of sharp practice as could be imagined. It was simply and women from the interior never knew what was being done. Tammany methods are tame by comparison.

The Young Men's Hebrew Associations must therefore step in and try to do what the synagogues have failed to do, and by appealing to the various interests of the young men develop in them a Jewish consciousness, such that will make for better Jews, and for better American citizenship." These were some of the statements made last night by Judge Jacob S.

Strahl, in his address to 600 men and women in the gymnasium of the Y. M. H. A. of Williamsburg, at No.

164 Clymer street. Judge Strahl, who was elected in June president of that local association, was tendered a reception, and among those who were present to express their high appreciation of the splendid work done by Judge Strahl for the Jews of that section were Judge Harry E. Lewis, Judge Robert H. Roy, and Michael Furst, the pioneer in the Y. M.

H. A. work of this borough. In the course of his address, Judge Strahl spoke of the urgent need of the Jewish young men of this borough to be active in philanthropic work in all its phases. He spoke of the need of Jewish men to assert themselves to the end that their brethren in this and other countries be benefited, particularly in this may epoch making period in history.

Strong will Young Men's Hebrew Associations help in developing these young men such degree that they will be to a fitted and enthusiastic to undertake such tasks. In introducing Michael Furst, Ira the vice president of the Rosenson, Y. M. H. stated that he was the "father of Y.

M. H. A. Judge Harry E. Lewis in his adstated that he was spoken of dress, by some as a young judge, and that not entirely right.

He then rewas minded the men and women of his work as assistant district attorney of this county, twenty years ago. Roy spoke in high terms of Judge the public speaking activities of the Y. M. H. and deplored the indifference to this work in the colleges of this country.

Others who spoke were Nathan J. chairman in charge of the committee on reception to Judge and Folk Younker. The girls who had charge of the refreshments and dancing, which followed were: Misses Ida Morse, Ida Rubin, Belle Schreider, Ida Sofer, Rae Liebert. Hazel Strahl and Anna Herring.
