While two women failed of election to the United States Senate, they are to be seated in the Assembly at Albany on the Republican side. Will they be a leaven or will they become mere cogs in that rotten Albany machine? Time will show. Meanwhile the Drifter notes with astonishment that the first really democratic election took place in the Empire State without rocking the foundations of society. In England the women are now preparing for the election to be held on December 7, and at least five are to be nominated for seats in the House of Commons.
