Declares He Never Said Anything
About "Dregs of Womankind."
CHICAGO. Julv 30. Rev. Henry A.
Buchtel. ex-Governor of Colorado, who
wa. credited with an interview denounc
ing woman suffrage, denied today that
he had made any such statements.
"I stated that some of the best people
I know are indifferent to the exercise of
th franchise." he added.
"Nothing that I said could be made to
convey the Idea that only tne aregs oi
womankind vote. That s not true.
POWER IS NOT FOR WOMEN
Ex-Governor Buchtel, of Colorado,
Flays Suffrage.
XEW YORK. July 20. "Only the dregs
of womankind vote in Colorado; the
mdthers have to be practically clubbed to
the polls. Power was not intended for
woman: influence is more subtle and it is
woman's greatest force. When woman
seeks power, it is a great calamity, not
only for her. but for the men as well. My
wife and daughter shun politics, as do
the maioritv of the women In Colorado.
I believe that women want the vote with
out the responsibility.
This is the opinion expressed by the
Rev. Henry A. Buchtel. ex-Governor of
Colorado, one of the four states In wmcn
women have the right to vote. Dr. Buch
tel came here to preach In Calvary Meth
odist Episcopal Church. Continuing, the
ex-Governor said:
'Chivalry was the motive that prompt
ed the granting of the equal franchise in
Colorado, and women legislators have
been suffered to put forth their claims
out of deference to their sex. There have
been few who did not demand the most
absurd and unreasonable laws. The only
trouble about the women legislators Is
that they will not listen to argument no
woman will. Logic does not appeal to
them."
