Expressions on Sufferage – 1895

But if it should be that the female portion of our state in the majority desire such a law, we would be the first to vote for it, as there is no question in our mind as to inalienable ‘rights’ in the matter. To start a move to ascertain female sentiment it was decided to interview all the women of Weiser upon their individual desires. As far as the work was accomplished, the following is the result:
