MOVEMENT GROWS. MANY IN OPPOSITION.

Lemoyne lawmaker Abbot Bachmeier spoke at a meeting here addressing "The Woman Problem" as concerns grow over the emergent suffrage movement. "States in the North have passed laws allowing women's suffrage, to their detriment and arguably to their damnation. We cannot allow the scourge of the North and Europe to spread here. Women are the evidently weaker sex and unable to think things out coolly and calmly.

Giving them the vote would lead to great damage to the republic and to this state, " he said, to a standing ovation. Well-known activist Dorothea Wicklow has held meetings in St. Denis and other towns in recent months promoting voting rights for women. The movement is spreading to smaller towns such as Rhodes, but traditionalists are confident that common sense will prevail.
