 Suffrage Work at Fairs. Mrs. w J. Bartlett gives out the | following report relative to suffrage work at fairs this fall:
 1 Very active and interesting worf has been done at the different fairs under the supervision of suffrage leagues and workers all over the state Mrs. W. J. Bartlett helped in Holland and New London counties and wal | stimulated by the fact that the anti suffra gists have followed the example of the suffragists and organized pro | paganda work at the fairs. Speeche: | and quiet persuasion of most effec | tive Kind have been brought to bea1 | that it is very much easier to obtain converts when the anti suff ragists ar, | active. For one thing. many of theil l speakers overreach themselves by ma king statements so manifestly fals, that the hearers immediately rejec 1 them. One of the fair workers report 1 ed a case of this kind where a mal who had never made up his mind o1 | the question signed the suffrage. s1il | after listening to an anti suffrag, l SpSSCHs f10 SalQ. Sne told the Sunrag, | worker that the suffragisrs negIec | their homes and care nothing for thei children, that suffrage means free low, and all kinds of immortality But tn, l suffragists I personally know ar, l among the best mothers, the best f1om | makers, and the most public spirited l women of the community. neve knew much about the vote question l but if these good women are attacket | like this, it is up to me to do what can to support them.'
