East Tenth streets. II gave Glynn
1913 votes last year and Whitman
2,632. Mr.. Koenig said
Woman suffrage, | think. IL a ques-
tion that may safely be left to the
Judgment of the individual voter. The
county and district Republican riga
i~zatlons are not trying to influence
the result. l should say from my tx-
perience that most of the district
leaders are against tho amendment.
Among men OF our party who are O.
pecially well known OPINIONS differ.
Herbert Parsons. for example. favors
suffrage Elihu Root, Henry l.. SLIM
son and Ogden L.. Mills do not.
I'm no meeting OF the county com
mittee has the matter been discussed
and I do not expect that II will be.
In my own district no canva has
been made. Most of the men | have
talked with are opposed to woman SUI
frage. OF course the suffragists have
been working, but I believe they have
not mado many converts. In such East
side districts as mine there are many
Socialists and other radicals who be-
lieve that women should vote.
"Generally speaking I should say that
the issue will be largely determined in
the household. I think every wife will
be consulted by her husband, although
che will not control his vote. II seems
90 me-, by the way. that the majority Of
women who are active for suffrage
have got away from the domestic life
and therefore do not represent the
views OF the average woman
Although | do not care to express
my personal view OF the matter, / will
say that I take no stock In the arsu-
ment that most husbands and wives
would quarrel II both had the ballot.
Some would some do now But on the
whole ] think they would be able 10
agree on politics"

spokesmen for their districts follow:
