and yards of names of representative
men and women from fOrty-two counties
of the state, which were gathered in the
last five days The memorial is to be
laid before the committee on resolutions
The petition begs the Republican party
to recognize women by making favOra-
BILE mention of wOman's enfranchise-
ment
That there is a large body that by it
will have to make new alignments and
would most naturally ally themselves
with the party which had favored it.
that it is indisputably just that women be
given suffrage. If the platform does
not mention the amendment the orators
may not and thus it will fail of the pre-
sentatiOn to the voters which its impOr-
tance demands.
By what reasoning can any one show
that is right that any women shall be
continued in disfrauchisement because
there are thousands of voters who do not
care whether it is in the platform or not,
but who would vote for it if it were.
Convention Adjourns.
The convention then adjourned to
o'clock after a motion to refer the
memorial to the committee on resolutions
had been ruled out of order.
