WOMEN CANNOT VOTE
SUPREME COURT SAYS IT Is UN-
CONSTITUTIONAL.

Mrs. Cofin's Mandamus Petition Denied
and the Kennedy Petition to Prevent
Registration Granted-The Entire Bench
Concurred In the Opinion.
LANSING. Oct. 25.-The supreme court
in the mandamus proceedings brought
to test the constitutionality of the act
passed by the last legislature granting
school and municipal suffrage to
women, has handed down an opinion
written by Judge McGrath and con-
Cured in by tie entire bench, declar-
ing the law wholly unc institutional
and void.
The proceedings were instituted in
Detroit in the name of Mary Stuart
Coffin ct al, to test the validity of act
No. 1873, of the laws of 1893. granting
women the right to vote in school, vii
lage and city elections in the state. The
petition of Mrs. Coffin was for a
mandamus to compel the Detroit cleo
tion commissioners to provide women
with tickets to vote for judicial and
city officers. The petition of Kennedy
ct al. was for a writ of prohibition to
prevent the city clerk from preparing
100 extra registration books, for the use
of women.
The opinion handed down goes on to
say:
1.-THE general rule is that the basis of
all authority to vote at popular elec-
tions is the constitution; that the
electorate is constituted by the funda-
mental law, and that the qualification
of the electors must be uniform through
out the state. To empower the legis-
lature to confer the elective franchise
upon classes of persons other than those
named, some other provision must be
pointed out which confers that author
ity in express terms, or by necessary
implication. The power to provide for
the incorporation of cities is not unlike
that given for the organization of coun-
ties, and the authority to direct the
time and manner in which judicial
officers shall be elected, and the other
officers elected, does not involve the
power to determine who shall consti-
tute the electorate.
''The word manner is one of large
significance. but it is clear that it can
not exceed the subject it belongs to. 1t
relates to the word elected.
"The constitution had already pro-
vided for electors, and when it provides
that an officer shall be elected, it GER
tainly contemplates an election by the
electorate which it has constituted. No
other election is known to the constitu-
ton, and when it provides that the leg
islature may direct the manner in
which an officer shall be elected it sim
ply empowers the legislature to provide
the details for the holding of such cleo
ton.
sit follows that the act in question is
invalid, that the mandamus in the first
named case must be denied, and the
writ Of prohibition granted in the case
last named
