What's that got to do with women's rights or negroes' rights? if my cup won't hold but a pint, and yours holds a quart, wouldn't you be mena not to let me have my little half measure-full? then that little man in black there, he says women can't have as much rights as men, 'cause christ wasn't a woman! where did your christ come from? where did your christ come from? from god and a woman! man had nothing to do with him. If the first woman god ever made was strong enough to turn the world upside down all alone, these women together ought to be able to turn it back, and get it right side up again! and now they is asking to do it, the men better let them. Obliged to you for hearing me, and now old sojourner ain't got nothing more to say." do you realize that in no other country in the world with democratic tendencies is suffrage so completely denied as in a considerable number of our own states? There are thirteen black states where no suffrage for women exists, and fourteen others where suffrage for women is more limited than in many foreign countries. do you realize that when you ask women to take their cause to state referendum you compel them to do this: that you drive women of education, refinement, achievement, to beg men who cannot read for their political freedom? do you realize that such anomalies as a college president asking her janitor to give her a vote are overstraining the patience and driving women to desperation? do you realize that women in increasing numbers indignantly resent the long delay in their enfranchisement? your party platforms have pledged women suffrage. Then why not be honest, frank friends of our cause, adopt it in reality as your own, make it a party program, and "fight with us"? As a party measure-a measure of all parties-why not put the amendment through congress and the legislatures? we shall all better friends, we shall have a happier nation, we women will be free to support loyally the party of our choice, and we shall be far prouder of our history. "There is one thing mightier than kings and armies"-aye, Than congresses and political parties-"the power of an idea when its time has come to move." The time for woman suffrage has come. The Woman's hour has struck. If parties prefer to postpone action longer and thus do battl with this idea, they challenge the inevitable. the idea will not perish, the party which opposes it may. Every delary, every trick, every political dishonesty from now on will antagonize the women of the land more and more, and when the party or parties which have so delayed woman suffrage finally let it come, their sincerity will be doubted and their appeal to the new voters will be met with suspicion. This is the psychology of the situation. can you afford the risk? think it over. 10. The authors of both passages seek social
