The right Of the women Of the
United States to have voice in the
selection of those who shall handle
the country's business, has been ac-
corded, for years, by all the fair
minded men.
Women, taken as class, have been
important factors in the development
of this great western world ever
since the first settlers landed upon
the shores, in the east almost five
centuries ago. They helped to carve
Il successful country from a wilder
ness and to make this the most beau
tiful land upon which the sun OF
Universe shines. They have lent to
the men the needed guiding influence,
and have invaded and made better
and more honest and honorable the
business world.
And in the states in which the
right, 10y amendment of state con.
stitution, has already been given 10

that they believe in good government
administered by good men, and that
