FAVoRs WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

Some time ago, 81 conSidera-
ton of our economic conditions
and tendencies. of the position
of women in gainful occupa-
tons, of the nature and course
of the demand, led me to
the conclusion that the granting
of suffrage to women is newt
able. Opposition may delay. but
in my judgment cannot defeat
this movement. If women are
10 have the vote, as I believe
they are, 1t seems to me entirely
clear that In the interest of the
public life of this country. the
contest should be ended prompt
ly. | favor the vote for women.
