Woman’s Suffrage
Passes
Yesterday the famous Susan B. Anthony suffrage amendment
passed the United States Senate by a vote of 56 to 25. Thirty-six Republicans
voted for and eight against. Twenty Democrats voted for and 17 voted against.
The measure will now be certified to the States for
ratification, and if three-fourths ratify the measure, then it becomes a law by
an amendment to the Constitution.
This fight has been going on for 45 years, and we are glad
to see the women win. Surely if woman is good enough to become mothers then
they are good enough to become equal in citizenship with man.
