however, that congressman and SEN

DR.. Shaw said fraud in South Da-

vote for the suffrage amendments in
the recent election, and while she
won in West Virginia. she is posi-
tive the election was stolen from the
suffragists in South Dakota.
She said suffragists We're twice
counted out in Oregon before they
won finally, and that similar prac-
tees on the part of the opposition
had cost the suffragists Iowa, Ne
