"Those women who expect to vote
for county superintendent of schools
and for state superintendent of public
instruction at the November election
will find that it is not simple matter
of going to the polls and depositing
their ballots. *** They must be
citizens. Women who was born in the
old country must have taken out their
first naturalization papers or their
fathers must have had their second
papers before they (the children) were
twenty-one years of age. 1t will prob
ably be amusing on election day to see
women attempting to vote who have
not complied with the necessary for
malities, and undoubtedly there will
be some who will imagine they have
been beaten out of their rights. 1t is

had the privileges of franchise for

4 BY act of the Legislature in 1885, APP
proved by the people by a vote at the
general election in 1886, women were
given the right to vote an any election
pertaining to school matters. This,
however, was somewhat ambiguous, or
at least indefinite, no provision being
made for the manner in which women
should vote, and in test case the su.
preme court decided that further legis-
lation would be necessary before the
fair sex could exercise the right given
them. The last legislature came to
their rescue by making the necessary
provision for their vote. Attorney
General Hicks opinion in part is as
follows:
Separate ballot boxes shall be fur
nished at every election precinct in
this state and every primary, general,
municipal or special election for the
use of women desiring to vote on said
school matters, and separate ballots
shall also be provided for the use of
said women. l am of the opinion that
women have the right to vote for state
and county superintendent of schools
at the next general election, and that
under chapter 266, laws of 1901. sep
arate ballot boxes should be furnished
at every election precinct for the use
of women desiring to vote on school
matters, and that separate ballots
should also be provided for the use of
said women.-M News.
