That was in 1909. The next year a
letter from him was read at an anti
suffrage meeting in the Berkeley thea
ter, New York, in which he said: Il
am very tepid on woman suffrage
The cause of womans enfranchise-
ment has no more impfacable enemy
than the Outlook, and Mr.. Roosevelt
is on the editorial staff. Last Feb
ruary he had in that magazine ten
column article entitled "Woman's
Rights" but tho only right considered
was that OF the suffrage. The article
was such a excellent exposition OF
the attitude of women who do not
wish to vote that the Anti-suffrage as
sociation ordered copies for distribu'
ton. In this article he said again
I'm our western states where the suf,
frage has been granted to women I am
unable to see that any great diffe",
ence has been caused as compared
with neighboring states
And yet just four months after this
publication, when Mr.. Roosevelt had
definitely decided to make the contest
for the presidential nomination, al his
scruples about forcing suffrage on a
hostile and Indifferent majority van
ished In thin air because million and
a half already had votes and the colo
mel wanted them, and he knew they
wouldn't stand for any nonsense about

The Progressive party had its first
opportunity to show its loyalty to the
woman suffrage plank in its platform
when the vote was taken In Ohio On
new constitution. Forty-two amend
ments were on the ballot, and all were
adopted except the one for woman
suffragel
Ohio ia one Of the banner" Progress
size states, and MIR. Roosevelt expects
to secure its electoral vote. In order
to do this a plurality of the electors
must be Progressives. and they could
therefore have easily carried the suf-
frage amendment If all the others had
voted against 1t, as the vote on the
constitution was very light, only
few hundred thousand out Of more
than million who we're eligible. Did
he issue any orders to this effect? DID
he say to his followers: NOW, here Is
our first chance to show the women
that we mean business. OF course II
we win in November We will give the
franchise to all in the United States,
but Just now we can make good BY
giving it to those in Ohio, so let every
Progressive vote for the woman slf'
fraSe amendment" Did he do this?
On the contrary, he completely ig-
nored the matter although he passed
through Ohio the very day Of the elec-
ton.
A few. days before. at st. Johnsbury,
VT, Mr.. Roosevelt had devoted a large
part of his speech to showing hew
strongly he believed in the ballot for
women and how anxious he was fcr
them 10 get it. The question was not
an issue there or likely to be, but It
was vital issue in Ohio, to be settsad
In four days, and yet notsby spoken or

pie of Ohio that he knew of It's eX-

Two days after the Progressive par

amendment its state convention met.

Just given the first example OF the
way It apparently means to keep that
pledge.
In Mr.. Rooseveft's second term the
suffragists determined to make every
possible effort to secure an indorse-
