PROUD DISTINCTION
 FOR MRS ROBINSON
(From Wednesdays Daily)

Mrs. Bertha Robinson, wife oi City Clerk Robinson, enjoys the dis. tinction of being the first woman in the State to affix her name to the great register. this noteworthy even, taking place on Monday morning in order that she might be accorded the privilege of voting at the cnsu ing city election. January 7, 1913.
 Governor Hunts proclamation oI equal suffrage was issued late las, week, but the right for women to use the franchise was not accorded until the following Monday after the books were re-opencd to all qualified voters of the city.
 Following Mrs. Robinson ten oth. CTS of her sex enrolled their names and arc now legal voters for the frs, time in the history of Arizona.
 Quite an interesting as we'll as . humorous incident occurred yester. day in connection with the right oi suffrage. when a pioneer woman resi-. dent made application before the city registrar to have her name duly entered. She had smooth sailing until the dangerous chasm was reach cd when her age was requested un- red oath which she indignantly demurred to making public. When informed by Judge Robinson ,ha, she looked not day older than thirty-two, in the face of the fac, that she had been resident of Pres colt for forty-six years, she freely consented to have her name enrolled at 'the age indicated by this off cial, and not by the actual record that time in its flight" had accom- plished in the number of years clipp- ed of. This suffragette left the of- hce somewhat indignant that the "peeping Tom law" of Arizona was enacted, asking why didn't the hor- rid legislators of Arizona follow the course of the generous law makers Of California on the woman suffrage matter, by simply incorporating that anw one above the age of twenty one years would be qualified to 20 and cast vote. "Well fix the law for the future" was her farewell.
 Judge Robinson stated yesterday that he will endcavor to visit every home in the city before the books are finally closed for registration, SO that every woman who desires may have her name enrolled and have the right 10 vote at the muni- cipal election. In the meantime those who desire to register may go to the city hall The total registra- ton up 10 last night was BPS, an in- crease of twenty-five since the pri- mary election of last Saturday.
