Woman's Suffrage.

The Northwestern friends of the .m°v°p inent for granting to women the "g

Recording Secretary—Mrs. Brooks Corresponding Secretary Mrs. J. Loomis.

Treasurer—Fernando Jones. The following are the whereases and resolutions that were passed

WHEREAS, The second section of the fourth article of the Constitution of the United States provides that the citizens of each State shall be entitled to all the privileges and immunities of citizens 111 the several States and it ha^ been held by high political authority that the privileges and immunities here referred to include the elective franchise and,

WHEREAS, It is now universally conceded women are citizens, and they are declared to be such in the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution and

WHEREAS, TO remove all doubts as to tho political rights of a large class of citizens heretofore held in subjection, a declatory amendment to the constitution of the United States has been adopted, removing from that class the disabilities heretofore existing therefore

Resolved, That we are in favor of an amendment to tho Constitution of the United States, recognizing and guaranteeing the right of women to exercise the elective franchise 011 equal terms with all other citizens.

The movement is to be pushed vigorously, and State Associations will be formed in most, if not all of the Northwestern States within a few weeks.—Chicago Ex.

Well, now is a good time to get on the right side of this question. There is nothing like "taking time by the forelock." "We are in favor of "woman's suffrage," because, perhaps, unlike the most of men, our mother was a woman. Without attempting another reason, it seems to us that is sufficient. Among the distinguished officers of the convention, we notice two are from this State, Miss Lizzie Boynton and George W. Julian. Whether Lizzie leads George or George leads Lizzie, wc are not advised. Lizzie, we have no doubt, Avears a pannier, and George ought to.

The movement is just being inaugurated in the northwest. That embraces the State of Indiana, and in the language of Virginia's great son, we say "let it come." Already we hear it amid the rustle of furbelows and Mils. It comes in feathers and green silks. It stalks into the arena of the "northwest" in velvet trimmings and numberless flounces. We welcome it. We welcome it, with washed hands, to hospitable tables. Can any one do more

Now having said this, and in all seriousness,'we desire to see the "woman's suffrage" question submitted to the women of the State. We venture tilt* assertion that there are not 1,000 women in the State, who have lived 011 Hoosier soil a decade, who will vote for this thing. We do not believe there are ,500 who care the snap of their finger about it. I11 this free State of ours, where Women liavo €»l-rrwj-^ Vyv,V/11

It is surely a sign of vitality in a party that its leaders have tho courage to discuss freely and openly their blunders, and the policy which they are framing. Indeed, if a party is to grow, if it is to advance, if it is to take up new qj^qstions as they arise, and deal with them~m a statesmanlike manner, and in a way to satisfy the people, it cannot well get along without discussion —unless it is controlled by a ring or secret council which so tightly holds the reins that it is able at any moment to turn the whole machine" in any direction it chooses." "The New York Evening I\$t, is one of the most sensible, as well as one of the most thorough Republican papers in the United States. Its chief editor, William Cullen Bryant, America's great Poet, has been a Republican always. Of course such a paper knows that a party that will not tolorate independence of thought, and free discussion of principle, is not a party to which intelligent men will belong, and is only fit to be composed of the lowest stratum of society. The Republican party is not now, nor has it evei been such a party. We are aware there are many persons now acting in the party, who desire to put a lock on the mouths of its members, "Just for the good of the party," and to keep those villains from being exposed. We are aware, also, that there are editors publishing papers inside the Republican party, who never expressed an independent thought in their lives, and who, when the corruption, and villiany, and wickedness of some of the members of the party, are attacked by the independent press of the party, cry hush, be still, don't say anything gloss it over as easy as you can, for if you do not, you might injure the party. Such fellows know but .little of the material out of which the ^Republican party is made. Being cor,rupt themselves, they wish to make tlie whole party particcpS criminis to their corruption, by winking at it. It won't -do the Republican party is composed of "too stern stuff to submit to the leadership of such men. "Hush money" can the silence of the whole party,

equals of men, this movement has found little favor. We are impressed with the belief that Hoosier women are entirely contented with their condition, but if they are not, we are in favor of giving them everything they want. If they want to vote we can see no sensible objection to it. If they want to wear boots, and it does not advance the price of the article, we have no objection. We are in favor of anything the women of this State want, for we have great confidence they will not want anything they ought not to have. But at any rate we desire to see this question submitted to them, and if they decide for it, amen say we.

The Republican Party.

The New York Evening Post remarks that there is one peculiarity about the Republican organization which has frequently deceived its opponents into a fallacious hope of defeating it this is the habit of its members to discuss very freely before the public their differences of opinion, the leaders of opinion among the Republicans having far more independence than the Democratic leaders. With great good sense and reason it adds: -.MiSJr*

to see that tlie

intelligent press of the party, all over the country, is speaking out, boldly, determinedly, and ^independently against corruption wherever it is found, whether inside the Republican organization, or elsewhere.

Senator Morton.

It is said that should Secretary Fish feel it necessary to resign his portfolio on account of the evident hostility of the House of Representatives to his policy, that the State Department would be tendered to Senator Morton. The Chicago ^Post Washington correspondent is authority for the rumor.—Indianapolis Journal.

And such a change in the portfolio of the State Department, would be to the advantage of the country. We have no special fault to find with Secretary Fish. He may not be as able as some men who have filled that important position, but he is a very fair man, an honest man, and a true lover of his country, He does the best he can, with the amount of experience and ability he brings into the office. No man can do more than this.

If Senator Morton would accept the appointment, President Grant would bring to his aid, as one of his Cabinet ministers, the most undoubted patriotism and commanding ability. Perhaps but few men in America could take charge of that Department at this critical time in its history, and comprehend the great questions now before it, with more facility and clearness. Few men have a clearer, more logical, stronger, more cultivated, and untiring intellect. Intellectually, he is capable of accomplishing the most herculean amount of labor. He never tires in the investigation of a subject, and never quits it until he has mastered it. Being a sound lawyer, fully conversant with the great prin ciples of the common law and the law which governs the interchange between nations, he seems to be precisely adapted to fill this high position.

Tlie best criterion to judge of a man is by what he has done. In the great con test for the preservation of the Government, 110 man in all the North more fully comprehended the condition of affairs than "Governor Morton of Indiana." With seeming almost prophetic vision, he grasped the magnitude of the occasion, and predicted the great struggle and its result. Never losing faith in his conviction, he inspired confidence in every person with whom he came in contact, until the whole people became accustomed to look upon him as one of the ablest and most far-seeing of their great men. He was a leader and an adviser when the intellect of the entire country was strained to its utmost capacity, and when our greatest minds were reeling beneath the weight of conflicting opinions, and the uncertainty of adopting any particular line of policy.

Senator Morton is no statesman of mushroom growth. His great abilities have been developed by the most intense study and untiring labor. He does noth ing by halves. He goes to the bottom of the subject, or he finds that it has no bottom. Thirty years of his life have been spent among bills in chancery and law books among executive papers and legislative proceedings amid the great events of the war and the questions growing out of it. In every place—as a 4,1^ wen, me ujjiei executive of this State, the great "War Governor" from '60 to '65, and the present United States Senator from Indiana, he has been singularly distinguished. He has been equal to every position the confidence and partiality of the people have called upon him to fill. He will be equal, in every particular, to fill any position he may from time to time be called upon to fill in this Government, no matter how exalted. -V

If Secretary Fish is to resign his portfolio, President Grant can do no wiser thing for himself, or for the general Government, than to place it at the disposal of Senator Morton. No man will bring to the discharge of the duties of the position more adaptation, and 110 man will inspire more coufidence, or give more a a a

0 I For the Gazeile. Art Studios. Every city containing 24,000 inhabitants ought to be able to sustain one art studio. Terre Haute, famous for her high standard in other departments that furnish the elements of education and progress, is taking hold of art also, in its legitimate sense, as well as in photography, in-which line she sustains several galleries, that will bear comparison with any others, in the excellence of their productions. One regular art studio, and the first of the kind, the pioneer was opened here 14 years ago, and has not been closed for want of support although the city, during the time, 'was hampered by tlie pressure of much needed labor and expense in building railroads and public institutions, besides the tremendous drafts made upon her citizens by the late war. There looms up now some prospect of an. art gallery being added to the rest, ere long, by young men, stimulated by the examples of her old citizens, now being torn from her by inexorable death.

General Fremont's Railroad. The American people know full well the service which Gen. Fremont, in his early manhood,irendered them as an feXploTer of the Western wilds and a feonquerer in California. And the people are just and true when they understand a matter clearly, and they demand that justice be done to Gen. Fremont.

We caution the politicians who think, by unjust attacks upon him, to build themselves up.that they will find themselves mistaketf ihtheil-calculations.

If any man is entitled to an opportunity to build a road jacross the continent, Gen. Fremont is pre-eminently entitled °PP°rtunity. He asks no subsidy nothing but the right of way and the

From the Fort Wayne Gazette. Senatorial Bnll Baiting. 'I'll bet my money on de bob tail nag ^tWhose gwine to bet on de bay

The sombre colored, but sanguine tempered individual who proposed to stake his fortune on the speed of a horse with an abbreviated extremity, has found imitators on a large scale, in the gentlemen who do tli8 editorials ftiul Washington correspondence of the Chicago Tribune. The animal upon which they propose to risk their currency is Senator Irumbull, of Illinois. Their apprehensions of defeat seems to be mainly directed toward Senator Morton. And they have, therefore, been engaged for some time past in a systematic attempt to satisfy the publie that the common opinion that Senator Morton is a statesman, an orator, ana a patriot, is a delusion and that tlie only great man of the Senate ^he Ajax of the Republican camp—-is Lyman Trumbull. Some weeks since the editor gave his readers an animated account of the debate on the Georgia bill, in which Senator Trumbull was grandiloquently as "sailing among Senators Howard, Drake, Stewart, Thayer, Morton and Sumner, like an iron-clad frigate in the midst of a meagrea assemblage of the dug outs and in which he characterized Senator Morton's speech as "the most low-flung and disreputable that was made in either House and chuckled to think how miserable the Illinois Senator's reply would have made the Senator from Indiana, if he had only been there to hear it. And the Washington correspondent of the same journal, without any consultation with the home office, as he takes pains to state, and with a boldness that is truly remarkable, considering the previous utterance of the editors, sends home columns of dispatches, made up mostly of mangled fragments of Senator Morton's speeches, and choice paragraphs from those of his rivals with sensational accounts of the annihilation which the Hoosier Senator experiences every time he tails into the hands of a really great man like Trumbull or Ferry. Neither editor or correspondent attempts any analysis of the question involved, or the argument employed but each exhausts his rhetoric in eulogy or detraction of the parties to the debate. Such an exhibition of petty jealousy and spite would be quite disgusting, if it were not so extravagant as to become ridiculous.

Frantic endeavors to prop up a man in a position which does not belong to him are not usually successful. It is generally suspected that they are procured by the man himself and in this case, if the course of the Tribune is not instigated by Senator Trumbull, it is a particular misfortune to him that it should seem so much like it. In this view, the solemn advice of that paper to Senator Morton to quit abusing other men through the papers, is peculiarly impressive. We have no attacks to make on Senator Trumbull. He has been many years in prominent public life, during times that tried the metal men were made of. He has been assigned his place. It is neither the highest or the lowest. In the Senate of the United States he is not a giant among pigmies and the Chicago Tribune cannot cheat the world into believing that he is by setting him en stilts.

On the other hand we are no worshipper of Senator Morton. We take leave occasionally to dissent from his views. He needs 110 words of praise from us and need heed no personal assaults of any paper. His public life is part of the history of the country, and apart in which the people of Indiana have a great and just pride. They have sent him to the Senate as their most illustrious son and they have no fears that he will ever make a low-flung, disreputable speech in that body. His greatness is not of that sort which consists. only in the littleness of his cotemporaries. In spite of all such calumny as that of the Tribune, his name will go down to posterity as one who rendered his countiy signal service in the time of her greatest need.

Mr. Snnnier Thinks the United States is Weaker than the Cuban Republic. When a sick man is beyond hope, it is a false kindness to hide the truth from him. On this ground, if on no other, the Hon. Charles Sumner is entitled to the thanks of the country. He at least has had the courage to tell us that our boasted strength, vigor, and proud position among nations, have departed from us. His exact words in speaking to a representative of the Herald upon the Cuban question, and of the attitude he should take respecting it on the floor of the Senate, are: "In the Senate there is a feeling that we are not now in a condition to go into war."

We can readily imagine the nature of this feeling of Mr. Sumner's. It is only that of a detected imposter, who, after boasting of what he could do, is called to the scratch and found wanting. The American Eagle is, after all, but a barndoor craven flaunting in borrowed plumes. Still it is well to know the worst.

Mr. Sumner of course is aware, as well or better than any other Senator, what the leeling of the Senate is and as the only war that can possibly result from a recognition of the belligerent rights of Cubans is a war with Spam, what Mr. Sumner means is that there is a feeling in the Senate that we are not in a condition to go to war with Spain.

According to the unquestionable statements of Messrs. Fish and Sumner, the patriots of Cuba consist of nothing more than a few disorganized bands of robbers, wandering about the country for purpo ses of plunder. However, these poor devils of Cubans have been strong enough not only to cope with Spain, but to wrest from her two-thirds of her colony, and are now in a better condition to obtain the remainder of it than ever they were. In short, Spain is much weaker, and Cuba much stronger, than when the revolu tion commenced. So that this declara tion of Mr. Sumner means that the Senate believes that the United States of Anierica are weaker, as a nation, than Cuba. We do not doubt, however, that all intelligent people will admit that under the present Administration Mr. Sumner's opinion is the truth.

One thing is certain. If the Senate does not at once concur with the House in giving belligerent rights to the Cubans, it will prove that Mr. Sumner is correct in his assertions respecting the feelings of that body.—JV. Y. Sun.

THE British Minister has congratulat*ed the Secretary of State on the prompt action of the American Government in enforcing the neutrality laws. Ah! if only the Secretary of State could return the compliment. We trust Mr. Thornton proposes to make out a bill of damages—the Fenians must have done some damage—and present it to the Government. Possibly it may be allowed as a partial offset to the Alabama claims. At any rate it will afford the United States another opportunity of setting England an honest example.—JV. Y. Tribune.
