The following remarks were made
at the Fourth Annual Convention Of
the Minnesota Woman Suffrage As
ISOLATION held In Minneapolis last
month:
Judge Hemiup, Of Minneapolis,
stated In q pleasant and convincing
manner good arguments for suffrage,
which he had very recently learned.
Going 10 Colorado for the health Of
his wife, they journeyed over into
Wyoming 10 visit friends, and, Ike
Saul Of old, the scales fell from his
eyes. He did not hide all these things
In his heart, but gave them out for
the benefit Of others not yet con .
WINGED. He had taken great pains 10
investigate the matter and had learned
from the best authority that fully IS
per cent Of the women voted. IL was
the best women also. The bad
women never appeared ut the polls.
There was no domestic trouble men
were willing their wives should vote
as they pleased. One Of the best re-
suits was that il broke the rule Of the
"bOsses." II was no longer Tom or
Jack, who owned mill or car shops,
and 30 controlled . large number Of
votes, but the best men, morally and
intellectually, who got the BOmine-
tons. No man with the least sus-
piciOns Of impurity about him stood
any chance of election, for the
women q. scratched the tickets with
out mercy The old idea that 1t
would only increase the number OF
votes and not change the results was
entirely done away. Women studied
into matters Ofgovernmenl also. One
lady Of wealth and culture had told
him that her girls asked her 80 many
questions regarding the tariff that she
was at her wits end sometimes, aud
she, though a grandmother, was dill
gently studying into the matter.
The President read the following
telegram, which shows exactly what
the suffragists want:
BosToN, Oct. -, 1884
Massachusetts greels Minnesota.
Petition your Legislature for Presi-
Dental Woman Suffrage by statute
under the Constitution Of the United
States. Yours truly,
Lucy STONE,
II. b. BLACKWELL.
A letter was then read from John
G. Whittier, the Quaker poet, whose
writings all portray the highest con-
ception Of wOmanly purity and excel
lence:
DANvERs, MASS. 10th Month, II, "a
NJ Dear FFiCnd-Thy note en-
closing the call for the annual meet
ing OF the Woman Suffrage AssOcia-
ton has been received.
Ny interest in the cause is undated
and every movement in its favor has
my hearty sympathy.
The signs Of its ultimate success are
increasing in all sections Of the cOun-
try, aud / find very little OF the bitter
opposition to It which existed a few
years ago.
The active and persistent hostility
Of few women In our State has given
our Legislators, who are Indifferent or
afraid Of compromising themselves
with their parties, an excuse for
voting against il hitherto, but there |
are many indications that the ques-
ton will soon be submitted 10 the
people for decision, and that the peO- |
pie will sustain it.
With sincere wishes for the success
of your efforts in Minnesota, / am,
dear Mrs. Ripley. thy friend.
JOHN O.. WHITTIER.
