HOW DOES YOUR REPRESENTATIVE
OR SENATOR STAND ON THE q
SUFFRAGE ISSUE? ,i5lE

Does the Constitution Of Vermont mean any
thing to you?
Are you willing that amendments should be
adopted that violate its express provisions?
Do you believe that the Fathers of the State
knew what they were doing when they provided that
the Legislature "shall have power to add to, alter
abolish infringe any part OF this Constitutions"
Do YOU propose to turn over to $50 men the right
TO overthrow what the builders of Vermont set up
for the organic law?
If not, find out where candidates stand who seek
to represent you in Montpelier next January. Ask
them if they will submit all future proposals OF
amendment to the people, whether they come from
Vermont or Washington.
Tell them you want to be consulted about your
own business.
1t is proposed to ratify an amendment to the
Federal Constitution providing for woman suffrage
without consulting the people of Vermont.
That amendment strikes squarely at Vermont's
right to regulate the suffrage, which is the very
source of popular government.
Ask your would-be representative or senator
where he stands on woman suffrage.
Ask him where he stands on supporting the
Constitution of Vermont.
Ask him whether he will join in a memorial to
Congress- demanding for the people the right to
vote on all future amendments to the Federal Cons
titution.
If he doesn't answer to suit you, vote against
him. If there is no candidate who suits you, get one
to run. If no one else thinks enough Of Vermont to
defend her Constitution, run yourself
Don't let man represent your town or county
who isn't pledged on this issue one way or another.
Give your representative your personal mandate at
the polls
If women want to vote let them get the suffrage
squarey fairly and in the orderly process of egisla
ton. We don't believe they want it any other way.
