PRESIDENTS VOTE ATTRACTIVE.
President Wilson's recent announce
ment that he would vote for suffrage in
the opinion of suffrage leaders converted
thousands to their cause. His stand.
however, and the vigorous campaign
waged by the women to the last minute,
failed to prevent a heavy vote against
adoption Of the amendment. In his own
voting precinct the seventh district of
Princeton borough, the vote was more
than two to one against the amendment.
Unofficial returns from nearly two
thirds of the districts in the State were
in the hands of the suffrage workers
soon after midnight. They showed that
in l222 districts out of 1891 in the State
the vote had been sS.2N for the amend

within an hour and half after the polls
had closed. Later in the night she issued
a statement which read in part as follows:
THE opponents of woman suffrage in
New Jersey were obliged to adopt unfair
tactics to defeat us. There has been much
colonizing in the large cities and it was
plainly evident to us months ago that 1t
was not the intention of the political
rings to give us n square deal. In arrang-
