me to see all these women here to
vote.
Our politics, in broad sense, is
rotton, certainly not made this way
by a vote of the women, and moth

that can be relied upon to exert it's
self to the right side of every moral

be relied upon, either at the polls,
the jury box, to cast their vote for
law and rigid law enforcement, and
for the candidate that best promotes
this, and stands for only that which
means for good.
