ANTI-SUFFRACE notes

A fallacy is being circulated among
Republicans to the effect that States
which have male suffrage will not
be represented in the next national
convention, as the double suffrage
States.
The basis OF this tale out OF which
woman suffragists are trying to make
capital, is the resolution passed by
the Republican convention to limit
the representation Of Congressional
districts where less than 1900
Republican votes were cast i'm 1912
TO one delegate each. n district
has this number Of Republican voters,
whether men or women, II is en-
titled to two delegates at the conven-
tion.
The only States affected by this
resolution arc certain southern States
where there are few Republican
voters. None OF the States where wo-
men vote, or the States recently cam
paigned or to be campaigned in 1916
