Wall strMt, die financial capital of ths western worid. is today the home of a snffrate shop and luncheon room In order to_ interest the "downtown" bustness man In their cause, the Bm pirs Stat« Campaign Committee has opened headquarters ^ 70 Wall street and hundreds of business men are being gesitly reminded every day that democracy is not yet established in New York.
"If only -we could step hack a hun¬ dred years," mts Mrs. Mary R. Beard, "how Strangely these buslneas men would feel. Since the birth of Ameri¬ ca the struggle for enfranchlsemsnt has never stopped, one class after an¬ other coming forward to claim ths privilege of citlr.enship for which thc Revolutionary War was fought. One hundred years ago many of the busi¬ nessmen of New York who now listen to the pleading of the women were thtemMlree voteless.
"In Nassau and Wall street it was 'not die women who were mounted on their little platform pleading for a share in the government of the State, but bankers, business men, merchants and their employes were making their plans to reach the publlc with the propaganda of Votes for Men. The men who did business in Wall street and Its environs one hundred years ago were not necessarily voters at ail. Indeed, the farmer whd' drove into town for his Saturday trading was able to look with contempt upon a mere banker on election day; that is, pro¬ vided the fariper owned a little piece

Whea the New York State Grange endorsed Woman Suffrage in Febniary it did what Oranges generally are do¬ ing from tho Atlantic to ttao iPaelflc. This eindorsement was made more em¬ phatic by tho fact tbat three commit¬ tees fostered tbe act: The CtNnmit- tce for the Oood of the Order, the Leg¬ islative and ttae Ballot Reform eom- mdttees. Thetr endorsement stood, not only for the immedlato political ques¬ tion of amendment to the State con¬ stitution, but for the general princi¬ ple of votes for women as well.
Agriculture has become the second largest division of woman's labor for the whole United States. There are now more women laborers on farms In the United States than there are women dressmakers, milliners, women tailors, hat, cap, oollar, cuH and shirt makers combined. This Is true, in spite of the fact that the larg¬ est single industry, in the great group of manufacturing and mechanical trades for women, is that of dress¬ making. Almost as many women work on farms at Held labor aa hire Jl llli over tlie counlry for servants, riiere, are more agiicultural workers

of land worth About 500 dolUr«, for the banker might own a few thousand dol¬ lar bonds and still aot be entitled to vote.
"Liand was the basis of suffrage In New York in 1815. Men as men did not count at the polte at all. Only that man who had his feet planted solidly on the earth was deemed flt to assume tho more serious political privileges and burdens, aad only about one man In five did have bis feet thus planted on the soli of New York.
"Did men like th«t oondltdoa of af- talrs in 1814? Not at all. Thoy wore unhappy and restless—all except the landlords, wlio were supremely con¬ tent because they Wore able to dom¬ inate all politics.
"One hundred yoara aso men began to agitate for mantaood anffrage. Thoy began to pamphleteer, hold torch light processions, arraag« mass meetings and demand in no uncertain tones their rights as free cltizmis of the United States. Some men had some rights, but all men did not, and most mon needed more because the indus¬ trial iatfrosts wore not satisAed t be controlled by the landed intereats " 'We bave a government of the poo¬ ple, 'by <the people, for tlie people,' thoy declared. 'iFarming is not the solo sphere of man; those who toll in the marts of trade shall be hoard on tko saaoe terms as those wbo own ttao land.' Not until 1S26 tn New York were ail whKe male ofttsons o< the SUto 21 years of acs and* over eonsid¬ ered it to vote for all the oieotive ofll c^t« of the State.

Women farmers, planters and over¬ seers outnvmber aU the locomotive en¬ gineers, firemen and motormen in the country by some thousands. Yot the aifairs of the latter were considered BO important that It was worth the wbile ot the Presldeat of the United fttateis to mediate by direct odvlce, in their interesta not long ago.
The number of women foremen of farms, dairies, gardsaa and green liouses is very nearly e^ual to the nuim'ber of men who own or manage log and timber camps. Most qt tbaim women fanners and overseers have no direct voice in politics and no pollticu power outside of the Grange
No people know better than tbe Grangers how much the aational labor problem ia involved In the poeltlon of woman fleld workers. There are one and one-half mllUen of them. They are working in the flelds of South Eiastern and Biastem Central state? for lass than fifty coats a day. Thei: hours of work are flxed by the rising snn and the evening star. One ques¬ tion that engages the attention of the New York Orange Is: "How Is tho Northern and Western farmer to keep pace with the ohaap la/bor of the wo- BUtn fleld worker ta the South?"
The Northern farmer knows that he had to BUt^ke headway against cheap slave labor once. He has to make headway bow against cheap woman labor. His intistence, throvgh Orange action, that women be enfranchised. seeaas to suggest that he is maii(p; tho ooanoctlon between the industria*. sacpIoltatioB of women and the polit cal dtsfranchleement of women.
