says. while the suffragist people
were there Many of them wore such
big hats that II was impossible for
the members OF the legislature to get
around.
81 think that those big hats did
more damage to the cause OF woman
suffrage than anything else that hap
pened there. The poor legislators were
always humping their faces against
big straw hats. or scratching them
selves on feathers or long hatpins,"
Legislators. when interviewed, ac-
knowledged. that the information was

The position of the opposition is thus
stated bv Mrs. oliver ". stewart, pre-
sident Of the Illinois Woman's Suf-
frage association.
IL the Illinois legislators would use
some Of their energy in considering
woman suffrage or some OF the other
important issues before them instead
OF thinking up such ridiculous mea-
sures as this hat bill, they would be OF
greater service to their state"
