feet. Incidentally Miss Paul herself
served seven terms In Jail.
In 1869 were formed two national
-ganizations: National Woman Suf-
frage association. with Mrs Stanton
and Miss Anthony leaders and head
quarters in New York; American
Woman Suffrage association, with
Mary A. Livermore, Julia Ward Howe
and Lucy Stone leaders and head
quarters in Boston.
The line OF division between them
was this: The former wished to
concentrate on the passage of con-
stitutional amendment; the latter
was in favor of obtaining the suf-
frage through amendments to state
constitutions. In 1890 the two organ
izations were united under the name
of National American Woman Suf-
fage Association. and work was
pushed along both lines of endeavor.
Mrs. Stanton was president until
1892. Miss Anthony served until
1900. resigning at the age Of eighty.
Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait was Its

an of transcendent gifts and elo-
quence-was president until 1918.
Mrs. Gait was then again chosen.
Mrs. Frank Leslie left large legacy
to Mrs. Gait to he used in the work.
The National association made ar
rangements at the ST. Louis conven-
tion of 1919 to dissolve its Organiza-
tion and become the League OF WOm-
en- Voters. These arrangements be-
came effective at the Chicago conven-
tion in February last. So the League
OF Women Voters now holds sway
over something like 27,OOO,O0O po-
tential American women voters.
Mrs. Gait. who Is also the head of the
International Woman Suffrage alli-
ance, which she founded in 1904, Is
honorary chairman; Mrs. Maud Wood

she came of Quaker stock. and early
devoted herself to Temperance" (the
prohibition OF those days. and to the
abolition OF slavery.

which would allow women to vote.
Finally. In 1872. at Rochester. N. y
she tried to force an Interpretation by
voting at the polls. She was arrested
and fined. She refused to pay the
fine. but was not sent to jail.
In 1875 Miss Anthony drafted the
amendment to the Constitution which
has now been ratified. In 1878 the
amendment was introduced In the
senate by Senator Sargent of Califor-
mia. 1t was defeated in 1887 and
thereafter was not even debated In
congress until 1914.
During the years the constitution
al amendment campaign was making
no progress the women won many vic
tories In the states. They received
full suffrage in 10. presidential suf-
frage in L. and partial suffrage in sew
eral others.
The National American Woman
Suffrage association in 1912 opened
headquarters In Washington and be-
gan an active campaign for the
passage of the amendment.
The National Woman's party, or
ganized in 1910 by Alice Paul, estab-
lished Washington headquarters In
1913 and introduced the militant into
the campaign.
Alice Paul-the third Quakeress to
immortalize herself-is the spectacu-

practical politician and developed the
deadliest card index on members of
congress that practical politics has

II is 10 yenrs since the organized
