Several States to Vote On Temperance and Suffrage.

There are different ways of looking at the same thing and elections in eastern states today will demonstrate that men are quite sure to look at things from dicerent angles. Some years ago one poet wrote: “Today let me have wine, woman and laughter, Soda water and sermons the day after." Another wrote: “Let me not here forget those two main plagues and common dotages of human kind, wine and women. They have infuriated and debauched miriads of peop'e and go commonly together for no good whatever.” In New Jersey recently, soon after President Wilson’s conversion to the cause of suffrage, the vote was very decidedly against extending the ballot to the skirts and it remains to be seen wfiat New York, Massachusetts and Pennsylvania think. In Ohio the issue is state wide prohibition and in Kentucky the issue is the election of a governor. We’ll know tomorrow.
