Women Suffrage In Wyoming

women don't want to hold office, said
Governor John w. Hoyt, of Wyoming
territory, in his lecture on woman suffrage
last evening before large audience in Asso
citation hall. "They do not care for pub
lie life. During all my experience in Wy
oming territory, where women are citizens
and hold the same civil rights as men, |
have not heard of one woman who desired
active public life. 1t is interesting to know
how woman suffrage was obtained in Wy
oming. A saloon-keeper one day said to
his wife: Betty, it is shame that
should be member of the legislature
and make laws for, you
when you are so much bet
ter than l. OF course Betty agreed with
him. When this man went to work at his
bill for woman suffrage people smiled and
the members of the legislature smiled. But
he was shrewd man. He went to the
democratic member and said Here you
may rs well vote for this, because, even if it
does pass, which is doubtful, the republican
governor will veto it, and you can thus
show your lberality. He told the repub-
lican members that the bill wouldn't pass,
and that they had better put themselves on
the good side of the record anyway. The
result staggered everybody. The illpassed
by a great majority, and the governor,
John A. Campbell, signed it. The II, xt
legislature tried to repeal the bill, but

In redistricting the state of Texas there
can be no necessity for gerrymandering, if
indeed, the practice is justiiiable in any
case. We have heard of political parties,
in warning each other, making use of this
system, but there can be no use for making
district extending from Red River to the
gulf merely to crafty some aspirant for con
gress. Unfortunately the letter of the law
does not prohibit making of such u district
though some contend, with reason, that the
spirit would imply prohibition. The plan
which ought to be adopted is the one which
makes these districts as compact as posi-
