Women's suffrage groups continued to fight in Missouri and also outside of the state. The Marysville Ladies Marching Band was featured in the Woman Suffrage Procession on March 13, 1913. It was the only all-female marching band and helped quiet the angry crowds. During the 1916 Democratic National Convention, suffragists Emily Newell Blair and Edna Gellhorn planned a silent, motionless parade. This event received national attention and helped gain some support from the Democratic delegates.
