suFrRAclsrs IN GIANT PARADE.


The weather man lately provided a
warm sun and q cloudless sky for the
biggest women suffrage demonstra-
tion in the history of New York
City.
For nearly year preparations for
the great suffrage parade have been
under way. and there was little for
Mrs. Harriet Stanton Blatch and
her assistants to do except to mar
shall the various divisions of their
forces.
The $1,000 women-and men, too,
who had asked for places in the
parade received a last word of ex-
hortation from Mrs. Blatch during
the morning.
Remember" she said through a
printed card with which each parader
was provided. you march for the
mightiest reform the world has ever
seen. The orderly appearance OF
our procession depends upon each
individual marcher. Remember the
public will judge. quite illogically, OF
course, but not less strictly, your
qualifications as a voter by your
promptness. !"
The men marchers, host which
Mrs. Blatch thought might number
5000, were disappointed to learn that
Colonel Roosevelt had declined the
invitation to lead their division.
