why JERSEY BARS
WOMAN SUFFRAGE
Election Frauds Responsible
for Loss of Ballot, Says
Anti-Leader.
DIGS UP OLD HISTORY
Mrs. J. A. Mahon Denies Vote Is With.
held Unlawfully from Suf-
fragists in That State.
by MRS. J. A. MAHoN.

The claim has often been advanced by
woman sufIragists that the women had
equal elective franchise with the men in
the State Of New Jersey at the begin
ming Of that Commemorative existence
and that there was nothing to show any
where in the legislative enactments OF
New Jersey repeating the act granting
this privilege to the women. Arguing
from this standpoint the sufrragists con-
tend to this day that they have a right
to the ballot in New Jersey, which, how
ever. is unlawfully Withheld from them.
A careful analysts Of the early histories
Of New Jersey and its legislative activities
will prove beyond any doubt and con-
vince the most rabid suffrage enthusiast
that not only the franchise has been
taken away from the women. but that
there were trenchAnt reasons therefor.
The Proprietary Laws.
The proprietary laws of New Jersey
accorded the right Of suffrage to free
men only of the province A very ex-
plicit law to that effect was passed in
1TOs. when the privilege was given to male
freeholders, having 100 acres OF land in
their own right: or were worth fifty
pounds OF the money OF the Province In
real and personal estate. This law re-
mained the same during the entire colo
NAL period.
The constitution Of New Jersey. framed
July 2, 1T76, gave the elective franchise
to all persons over twenty-one years OF
age. This was the only constitution made
by any of the States that did not specify
free males.
Until 1870 women did not exercise the
franchise. A revision Of the election
laws was proposed. and the legislature
referred the subject to Joseph Cooper,
of West Jersey. a member Of the So
ciety of Friends. The rule In that So
ciety permitted women as well as men
to vote on all matters pertaining to
that society Mr.. Cooper claimed the
same right in connection with the State,
and in support of his contention quoted
the provisions of the constitution of
1T6. To satisfy him the committee re-
ported a bill to that effect containing
the words he or She" as applying 10
the voters. Thus was given legislative
to the supposed meaning Of
the constitution.
The question Of female suffrage was a
mooted one in the Interpretation of the
