MRS HENRY OF VERSAILLES KY. GIVES HER
PLATFORM IN CASE SHE ENTERS


THE WHITE HOUSE.

wood ran her serlo-comc tilt for the Presidency on
the Equal Rights ticket. woman has aspired 70
become a candidate for that high office In the
canvass antedating the Presidential election OF
1900 however a woman has again appeared brousht
forward this time by the Prohibition ana LABOR
parties.
Mrs Josephine x. Henry. OF Versailles. KY. is
the candidate mentioned and. although she mas
not formally slgnned her acceptance Of the candi-
dacy her name will go before the Prohibition and
Labor parties as a candidate for the Presidency.
Although n free silverite she will hardly get the
nomination from that party although II would
doubtless be more TO her liking.
Mrs Henry is about sixty years OF age. and fs
widely known as the Kentucky Poetess' She
has always stood for equal rights. and for years
has labored continuously 70 secure property rights
to married women. She is n pronounced agnosuc,
and. although ardent temperance advocate has
never allowed her name 10 be enrolled on the Wom-
ans Christian Temperance Unicn books

the "age Of consent" law in Kentucky was changed
from twelve years to eighteen years. For some
time she associate editor Of The FREQ Opin-
ion' liberal paper. published in Cincinnati. In
which she stood boldly for equal rights.
Mrs. Henry says she reason why the
United States should not have a woman as Chief
Executive. giving as examples the Two pest-
governed countries in the world. England and Hol-
land The women OF the United States" declares
Mrs. Henry, "are the equals OF any. and we must
stand out boldly for ourselves" Asked TO her
policy should changed conditions and new laws
make her eligible 70 the Presidency. Mrs Henry
replied:
