While Mamma Votes.

A novel feature of the election held
recently at Bellevue, Idaho, was that
Of having a nurse at the polls to attend
to the babies while their mothers voted.
The wealthy women Of the community
are said to have exerted themselves to
furnish their poorer sisters with every
facility in their power to enable them
to 20 to the polls. Those possessing
carriages sent them around to bring
women who would otherwise have had
to walk. In many instances women,
after casting their own ballots, would
hurry to the homes Of other women and
care for their households, thus allowing
them to vote without neglect of their
duties
