Would our American women be low
ered by going to the polls to vote?
Would a crowd of rough idlers be allowed
there under the circumstances? I think
if women were allowed to vote that in
temperance would be gradually blotted
out of this fair couutry. As many of
the crimes are entirely due to the intox
icating liquors, would not the abolishing
of the intoxicants check them to a
noticeable extent? Would women neg
lect tneir nomes l Are you willing to
class our American women with imbe
ciles, insane people, convicts, and a cer
tain claseof foreigners, as you most un
doubtedly would in' denying iheir right
to vote. Now while I think it is ruht
for colored people to vote, does it not
look wrong that a negro , barely able to
read, Bhould be allowed to vote and our
highly eJucated women denied this
right? If a woman has taxable prop
erty, isn't it taxed? Yet she cannot
vote, Our forefathers declared, prior to
the Revolution, that "taxation without
representation is tyranny," and it was
the direct cause of the war that soon
followed. If a woman commits a crime,
is she not punished for it? Yet she can
not make the laws or at least help in
torming them. Does it look just?

easier trapped or poisoned, and with
