- It has long- been contended by those
who are not ardent advocatea of equal

no - desire the prlvi le-e of the- electtve

The plan proposed by those oppoeed
to the granting of the elective franchise
to women, is to submit it to a vote of
those concerned, the women them-selves.-.
It is thought by those-in ter

question, that - this would be a most
effective means of settling this ques
