SANTA CRUZ, CAL, Oct. 13.-Hon. a.
]. Uttley of Los Angeles, candidate for
Superior Judge on the Populist ticket of
that county. addressed an audience that
filled the seating capacity of the Y. M. G.
A. Hall tonight. Mr.. Uttley has been
speaking for free silver for the past sixty
days in this State. He said all his audi
ences had been largely composed of
women, which he held to be an indication
that they were giving attention very
properly to political and economic ques-
tions. When this Government was formed,
he said, there were four classes that could
not vote Indians, negroes idiots and
women. The exception had been removed
as to Indians and negroes, and within the
past twenty years he thought it mani
fest that idiots had been voting. Only The
women were left without the franchise,
and in this State, he believed, they would
be given the voting privilege by great
majority.
