come to recognize the necessity OF
selecting their best men, or at least
not nominating bad men, If they

Since my residence here more than
one instance has come under my

generally conceded that their de.

Woman mt the Pnlls.

Your letter of The 2Sth ult., ask
ing my opinion OF the practical re-
suits of woman suffrage in Wyom-
ing, u received. l could have
wished you had selected some abler
source OF information.
I came TO Wyoming some three
years ago from Missouri, and
brought with me, both from nature
and education, fully the usual
amount of conservatism, and 1 re-
garded with peculiar suspicion the
idea of women entering the politi-
cal arena. My observations have
materially modified my views upon
this subject. I will Inot trespass
upon your time by any elaborate
history Of woman suffrage in Wy
oming, but give you a brief sum-
mary of facts and results as they
have come under my own observa-
ton.
The women of Wyoming, and
particularly the better class, as
highly prize and as generally exer-
else the right of suffrage as do the
men. Woman, from her very de-
pendence, and comparative weak
ness and helplessness, feels more
strongly than man does her need
of the protection of good laws faith
fllIy executed, and, in her own in
tsresi and that of those she loves,
she naturally puts her vote where
It will do most good for the accom-
lishment of this end.
The elections here are conducted
rs quietly and decorously as any
other public gathering, and 1 have
concluded that if the sexes can
associate together with impunity
IN the home, the echool, the
church, the social gathering, and
In every relation Of life from the
cradle to the grave, woman need
not be seriously demoralized by
her momentary association with
her husband, father, lover and
brother once year Mt the polls.
It is true, women very generally
vote as do their husbands. know
several Instances, however, where
the wife votes one way and the
husband the other, but l have
never known or heard of its gene-
rating any unpleas intness in their
family relations. The pioneers of
the West, whatever their faults,
are not so intolerant as to abuse
their wives because of a difference
OF opinion In politics, or even relig-
lon. The fact that husbands and |
wives usually vote alike seems to |
me no election. 1t is only plac-
Ing an additional power and infiu-

G couutry where 1t is most needed
and will naturally be most wisely
