85 PER GENT. OF WOMEN
 OF NEW YORK ARE NOT INTERESTED IN SUFFRAGE
By Mrs. ". B. Williams

(By Mrs. W. B. Williams
 Before the men of any state force suffrage upon the women, the women ought to be given a. chance to express their wishes in the matter. This has been several times suggested in Connecticut, while in both New York and Massachusetts legislative bills to this effect have been proposed. The suffragists are always opposed to any such movement and it is no wonder that they are for they realize per fectly that if the women of the state were consulted only a pitifuily small fraction of them would indorse suf- frage Nothing could hurt the suf- frage cause more than a referendum to the wofnen.
 The New Y erk World recently con ducted a esstraw vote'' among the Wo- men of New York state to find out their real feeling. After all the eff forts of the suffragists in New York state S5 per cent. of the women were not enough interested in suffrage to mail a postcard in reply. Eighty live per cent. did not answer at all, so they cannot have been specially eager for the ballot. Women are not interested in politics That is the hopeless part of the suffrage move
