The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1909-01-20

woman suffrage in Idaho has not
produced all the reforms its advo.
Gates predicted, it has resulted in
none of the evils its opponents
threatened. There have been not
the faintest symptoms Of any such
evils. 1t does not break up homes.
1t does not unseX the women. 1t
does not drag women out of her
sphere. 1t does not make sex
party. 1t has forced the party to
be more particular about the moral
character of their candidates.
Representative Cook. OF Colo
RADIO, gave much the same report
As did Senator Teller. He said
that women support a measure on
its merits, as they see them, re-
CARELESS OF political log-rolling''
considerations. Mr.. Cook said
Ao large proportion of our
women rs men vote. Woman stuff
rage has developed none of the
Objectionable activities among
women which anti-suilra4isto seem
to fear"
next talked with Senator Bur
rows, of Michigan-a State where
women have the school suffrage
only. Senator Burrows said: -
believe in woman suffrage on prin-
ciple. There is no legitimate rea-
son why women should not vote. "
