The Idaho Statesman referring to Mrs. Duniway's work in behalf of the woman suffrage, says : "Who are better entitled to a place at the batlot box than the women who shared the bard- ships and dangers of founding the state? Who better entitled to a voice in the government of tb state than the moth ers who carried their children in wagons across the continent to assist In building up the commonwealth? Who better entitled to the ballot than the daughters and grand daughters of those heroic women? With the ballot, woman will make conquests that men are incapable of achieving, and she will contribute immeasurably towards building a great er Oregon ; a grander Oregja; an Ore gon that will stir greater pride In the breasts of those coming generations than is (elt by those of this time for the Oregon w now know."
