DIR. SHAW ASKS INFORMATION
FROM THE ANTS.

Mrs. Arthur Dodge, the President
of the National Anti-Suffrage Associa-
ton, has of late been criticising the
suffragists for raising money to carry
on their work, especially for making
the Melting Pot" appeal for old gold
and silver, to help win the western
campaign. Mrs. Dodge pronounces
the suffragists selfish, and other
"antis" have urged that in these
dreadful war times, the suffragists
should devote themselves exclusively
to Red Cross work, whereupon DR..
Shaw inquired with interest as to
whether the anti-suffragists were
planning to close their own Head
quarters, stop publishing their "Pro-
test" and call back their speakers from
the Campaign States. But at last &C
counts, the anti-workers were still in
he field.
In Idaho, the Chief Justice and all
the justices of the State Supreme
court have signed published state
ment saying: DOMAIN suffrage has
gained much in. popularity since its
adoption in 1896. None of the evils
predicted have come to pass. There
have been no anti-suffragists in the
State until very recently. One man
has been found who gives a horrible
account of woman suffrage in that
State and the anti-suffragists are
quoting him far and wide with great
gusto. But this man is strictly
anonymous. 1t will be idle for any
one to write anonymous letters claim,
ing that equal suffrage works disas,
tiers SO long as it continues to spread
steadily from State to State.
