yoceted the cause OF female suffrage, but he was
sorry 10 say that the movement was An lis inclpL

shown their superiority In political matters. He
said til t the Governor OF the state, Mr. Scott,
was In favor Of female suffrage, as were nearly
all the otner State Officers, aud ne mad no do9ot
mat any influence that they could exert In favor
