In this letter, Smith details his support for woman's suffrage, refuting arguments that the framers of the Constitution intended to deny this right. He also discusses his support for the temperance movement: "Then there are two reforms with which the Republican party cannot afford to delay identifying itself. On of them is the recognition in woman of all the political rights exercised by man. The other is the arresting of the dramshop ruin of our country by no longer licensing or suffering the dramshop, that great manufactory of all sorts and sizes of criminals."]]>

The main illustration is a woman scantily dressed in a Red Cross nurse's uniform, holding up a wine glass, next to a very small childish looking man, who is saying "Help! I'm sick! I need a doctor like you. The woman says: "No one can look after a man so well as a woman and I guarantee to take care of you." In the corner is an illustration of a large baby crying in a cradle, and is labeled the "Suffragette Ticket" with the inscription, "The hand that rocks the cradle fools the world."]]>
