VOTES FOR WOMEN IN NATION
AL POLITICS
It's ION to Washington once
more for the suffragists. From
California, Montana, Florida, Maine
and and many intervening points they
are advancing upon the Capitol.
Recklessly regardless of the ther-
m11ometer, they predict for July 31st
themost important votes for Wo-
men men demonstr alton this country has
ever seen. Theme will not be so
many participants as in some Of the
great New York parades, or so
niue; money spent as there was for
the beautiful pageant at the Metro
apolitan opera house last May and
Tor the tableau on the Treasury
steps the day before Inauguration.
But the political significance Of the
events of next Thursday is already
being felt just where the women
intend that is, in Congress.
The idea of the demonstration is
briefly this: to make every con
gresham realize the demand of the
men and women in his own district
for an amendment to the Constitu-
tlOn, which shall provide that s'the
right of citizens of the United States
| to vote shall not be denied or
abridged by the United States or by
any Static because of SEX
10 prove this demand, meetings
have been organized, resolutions
passed, and petitions signed in the
various Congressional districts. The
couriers to Congress as the suf-
ragists who are journeying from all
points of the United States are call
ed-----have stopped in each center
long enough to- collect the petitions
and resolutions which local suffra-
gists have prepared for them.
The New York petitions started
from Niagara Fails on the 18th Of
July. They have been carried by
motor, boat, rail and caravan
zone horse shay built in, 1776 HAY
ing been pressed into service. The
Montana petitions are in charge Of
Miss Jeanette Rankin, president Of
| the State organic alton and field sec
rotary for the National Suffrage As
ISOLATION who left Butte on the 7th
day of July in an automobile. Mas
lsachusetts has two automobile par
| ties on the way, one of them selling
Tits trip a midsummer dash for the
pole.''' Kentucky is sending an ar
dent suffragist aged 80. Mems
leagues are contented with repre-
sentatives who will travel by train
to show their senators that I'VE
voters are for it" But, however, the
suffragists come and where ever
they are coming from, it is certain
that they have lost no chance on
the way to collect names, distribute
literature and give voice to their
faith.
All the couriers will assemble in
Hyattsville, Maryland, early in the
morning of the 31st. They will be
received in the park by the mayor
and prominent citizens of the town.
Officers Of the National Suffrage As
sociation Mrs. Mary Ware bennett,
Of New York, Mrs. Susan w. Fitz-.
gerald Of Boston and Mrs. James
Lees LaidlaW of New York, and
members of the congressional com
mittee. Miss Alice Paul Of Phila-
delphia and Miss Lucy Burns Of
Brooklyn, with committee Of To-
cal suffragists will head the auto
mobile parade from Hyattsville to-
Washington, and along Pennsylva-
MIA to the Capitol. There the huge
mass Of petitions will be presented.
That evening banquet will be Civ
zen at the Brighton Hotel. 4.
All this may, you think, be inter
testing enough to read about but
why should any one be willing to-
do lit Why go to Washington in
July, when you might be comfor-
table in Maine, the White Noun
tains or the Yellowstone? Why pes
