Miss Vivian Pierce organizer for the national woman's party in Maricopa, Yuma and Pinal counties. with Phoe- nix as southern headquarters. returned Monday. prepared to begin the last lap of the first womans political campaign with a flourish. Campaign headquart- CTS will be opened in Phoenix within the next few days and state publicity for the whrl- wind finish will be put out from this center
 Miss Pierce returned full of confi- dence in the result of the election in November. 'I found that the work of our organization in the northern coun- ties is beginning to bear fruit. Miss Todd met with a warm reception and real understanding. In Flagstaff she was invited to speak by Senator Bur ton at his meeting; she began at half past nine timid about tiring the great | audience; they did not want her to stop. There is now complete under i standing in this state of just what the woman's party wants to do. At first we were considered side-issue. Wom- en now realize that, whatever the re- suit of the November election. the women of the west by their vote in the suffrage states must rebuke the party ! in power for their attitude of studied contempt toward the demands of the women of this nation for political freedom.
 "The final demonstration of the
 woman's party campaign in southern Arizona, to be held in Phoenix the last part of this month. is to be the most brilliant political event of any party in this campaign. Two of this coun- try's greatest feminists are to speak 1 from one platform. making the final appeal for the enfranchisement of the women of the eastern states. and ask 1 ing the women of Arizona to stand by women at the November election. These ! two women are Inez Milholland Bois- sevain and Rose Winslow, both of New ] York.
