Some of tbe points brought out were: The inius tice in giving tbe ignorant or vicious red, white or black man tbe right to vote aud denying it to tbe well-reared, well born aud law-abiding woman; that taxation without representation is as much tyranny today as it was in 1774; that women need not neglect tbe home to cast their ballots once or twice a year; that there is more illit eracy among men in the United States than among women ; that the saloon element is opposed to Woman's Suffrage because it knows full well that nisnt women are against tbe sa loon's destructive influences.
