CONGRESSMAN HAuGEN
SIkUNCR SUFFRAGIST
Fourth District Representative Be.
lieves Women Are Entitled to Vote

Among the strongest supporters of
equal suffrage in Iowa are members
of the states delegation in congress.
From Senators Cummins and Kenyon
and congressman have come many
strong endorsements of woman suf-
frage, and it is possible that several
members of the Iowa delegation will
come to Iowa to give some help in the
speaking campaign during the month
of May if congress does not take up all
of their time.
One of the most enthusiastic believ-
ers in woman suffrage is Congressman
Gilbert N. Haugen, of Northwood, the
fourth district: Believing as do, that
women in every respect are as com
petent to vote as men, that if they de-
sire to have the privilege and respon-
sibility extended to them, it should be
granted, have on numerous occasions
voted and expressed my sentiment in
| favor of equal suffrage" Congressman
Haugen wrote recently. "It is, indeed,
gratifying to me to know that such
deep interest is taken in this move
ment"

men of my acquaintance are trying to
do in a way of influencing other minds
on political questions.
II am disposed to think that the
overwhelming majority of women in
my state would like to vote, but if they
do not, in my judgment it is pity, and
that for all the greater reason the op-
portunity and the duty should be con-
ferred upon them, because it seems to
me that no one can really say that he
has lived who has not realized what
it means to captain ones own SOUL"

IOWANS STAND
FOR DEMOCRACY
Casper Schenk, Leading Pro.
i gressive, Writes Letter
! Supporting Suffrage

group of eastern women, opposed
to granting the franchise to women,
have been appealing, by letter, to Iowa
men who claim Harvard university as
their Alma Mater, begging the men to
ally themselves against the women of
Iowa and to fight the suffrage amend
ment.
Casper Schenk, who is one of the
best known men in the Iowa progress
sive party, received this appeal from
the east and in very thoughtful reply
to the letter says in part:
"In Iowa we believe as heartily as
anyone could believe in American
democracy. We believe that even the
ills of democracy can best be cured by
more democracy. 1t seems to me that
the logical progress of events makes
equal suffrage in democracy as in
evitable as democratic government and
negro emancipation themselves were,
and the great prophets of democracy,
like Abraham Lincoln and Wendell
Phillips, consistently taught this.
II have always thought that among
the great prophets of our American
democracy, one of the greatest that the
country has produced was Wendell
Phillips of Boston. 1t was largely be-
cause of him that became Harvard
man.
"You remember in his wonderful ad-
dress to Harvard men, The Scholar in
Republic delivered on June 80, 1881
after speaking as only Wendell Phil
lips could speak about the wonderful
heritage we Americans have as re-
suit of democratic government, he said
this:

versal suffrage-our fathers noblest
legacy to us, the greatest trust Goo
leaves in our hands,-there be any

armory, will make victory certain, il

Women Would BE Benefited.

1t is true that women are not suffer-
ing because they do not possess the
right to vote. 1t is equally true that
vesting women with the right to vote
works no revolutionary changes. But
these facts in no wise disprove the as
sertion that women should be vested
with the right to vote. If the right of
franchise has been beneficial to men
