HERE are some women in Mon
tana, as well as elsewhere
n throughout the United States,
who occupy an anomalous position,
due to their having married for
eigners before 1922. They may
have been born in America, and new
er left it for a day, yet the mere act
of marriage has deprived them Of
their citizenship, that cannot be re-
gained, until they have passed the
examination given to foreigners who
desire to become citizens
I recently learned of one such
case, and as it illustrates the flag
rant injustice of the law as it effects
those who were married to foreign
ers before the law recognized the in
dividuality Of women, to a certain
extent, at least. While it might be
we'll if all voters were compelled to
pass the examination given to aliens,
there should be no discrimination on
account of sex, or date of marriage.
But this is the story, and the reader
can reach his or her own conclusion.
She was a wOrkingman's wife, this
woman, of whom I am about to tell.
Noticing that she was well informed
on topics of the day, I ventured to
ask, you have a good education
have you nOt?" L~aughingly she re-
piled, 81 v went beyond the
eighth grade" Then added, But
had a little supplementary education
or schooling, later in life, when
could i'll spare the time for it.

who had come here to make his
home, and who at once set about be
coming a citizen. I, you mus

40 years ago in a storm and aban-

a few supplies from the hold Mr..
Wenner says that the steamers

my neighbors, I wished to exercise
this privilege; but on attempting to
do so, discovered that my marriage
had wrought a marvellous change,
greater than is given in any fairy
tale. I was a Scandinavian without
knowing it, and was no longer a citi-
zen of this country.

school, and learn that I was living
in a republic, and lots of other
things about its government, that
long years Of residence here should
have taught me-fOr I am quite as
well read as my neighbOrs, who cast
their votes without any of this pre-
liminary trouble.
"When I learned this, I was a
mother, with four or five children
to look after. If I went to school,
it meant that I must leave them at
the time of day they needed me
most; but if studying at night
would give me back my American
heritage, I surely intended to under
take it. So to night school 1 went
for three long months, and then
took my examination along with
Italians, Hungarians, Austrians, and
others who desired citizenship, and
passed.
"Oh, yes! Learning who was presi-
dent Of the United States, about the
Constitution, and similar things,
made me over entirely. You, or any
one else, would probably not notice
the difference those three months OF
study wrought; but in the eyes OF
the law, I am no longer a Scandin-
avian, having regained my birth
right by answering a few questions.
