advocated the civil and legal enfran-
chisement of women in all the States OF

eight new Republican seats, six fairly
held and two stolen.
Mr.. McAdoo IN. J.. said that the con-
stitution Of Wyoming. if not the worst
constitution ever adopted, was abreast
OF the worst There was in that consti-

in politics. NOR IS and economics The
only good thing in it was the clause

tional position taken by the South dur
ing the war was righ: or wrong.

lieved then that It was right but be sc-
cepted the result aud meant honestly
