Meeting Of the Executive Committee Of
the State Suffrage Association.
EoW Suffrage Operates in wyoming
Letter from Hiss Susan
Anthony.

A meeting Of the Executive Committee OF the
Woman's Suffrage Association Of the State OF
Illinois, was held yesterday afternoon at the
residence Of Mrs. Sanford, No. 400 Michigan
avenue. The attendance was large; Mrs Ter
nando Jones presided.
After tile reading Of the minutes Of preceding
meetings. the Chair stated that it was the In
te,1tion of the Society during the coming winter
to hold several meetings Of great Interest, where
questions of government, political economy,
finance, ETC., would be discussed.
In accordance with q general request Mrs.
Waite gave an abstract Of letter received by
her from her husband, the Judge, who. while at
Fort Bridger. had Investigated the results of
female suffrage in the Territory Of wyoming,
and found they fully accorded with his antlci-
pations. The women voted at every election,
and the men we're more polite to them than ever
before-they wanted their votes. There was no
disposition on the part Of the men to deprive
the females of the rights recently. given
them. Tho Judge believed that massachusetts,
would be the next to grant female suffrage, and
then all the other States would follow:
After this cheering statement, Mrs. Jones read
letter from Hiss Anthony, stating that she and
thirteen other ladies Lad voted the straight Re
publican ticket at Rochester. Mrs. Jones sug-
gested they were registered by Republican regis
trars, and allowed to vote by Republican judges,
it being understood, Of course, they would vote
the Republican ticket.
Mrs. Jones also said that Miss Anthony wrote
that thev must now buckle on their harness,
Whatever that might be, md 60 to work in the
great cause. In Illinois, they must organize
meetings, go down to Springfield. and persuade
tile Legislature to strike tho word male out
Of the Constitution, and then they would be
freed.
Some discussion then followed as to whether a
public meeting should be held this month,
and it was finally decided to have
one between the Goth and 26th of November, at
which possibly both Mrs. Stanton and Miss
Faithful will speak. Acommittee wasappointed,
consisting of Mrs. Van Wink1e, Mrs. Day, Mrs.
Loomis, Miss DR.. McGee, Mrs. Leonard, Prof.
Brooks, and Mrs. Jones, to make the necessary
arrangements for the gathering.
The meeting then adjourned.
