The suffrage advocates have not yet learned enough political wisdom to further their cause through education of the voters.
Although enormous sums of money have been spent in suffrage campaigns, in no one has enough money been available to do the work thoroughly.

In the four States where the question is at present before the voters, complaint is made that there is not enough money in the treasuries properly to circulate literature.
Many of the wisest leaders in the National Woman Suffrage Association, including Dr.Anna Shaw, Ida Husted Harper, and others, are advising an altogether new method of conducting the struggle for the ballot.

They advocate selecting a State, possibly Nebraska, where conditions seem uncommonly favorable, and concentrating the entire strength of the national organization, every dollar of money in the national treasury, all the speakers and organizers, all the literature, in a mighty effort to give the women of that one State the ballot.

The vote won in Nebraska, the national association should pass on to the next most favorable State and win a victory there.

The moral effect of such campaigns would no doubt be very great.
One of the principal reasons why men hesitate in this country to give the voting power to women is that they do not know, and they rather fear to guess, how far women would unite in forcing their own policies on the country.
