The Minneapolis Journal indicates mild surprise that the Bemidji Pio- neer should continue its campaign for an extra session of the legislature after the governor’s public declara- tion that he is not in favor of such a session. So far as we know the governor has only once said in pub- lic that he didn’t favor an extra ses- sion. For a year he has been on rec- ord for an extra session. Twice, at least, has the governor been placed in a “I-favor-an-extra-session-for-re- apportionment” position. First, by his own statements at Brainerd a year ago, and second when Senator Hackney made a bee line from the governor’s office to the senate cham- ber to inform that august body that unless a reapportionment bill was passed a special session stared them in the face. For a year we have been led to believe that the governor fav- We'll admit that we fear His Excellency is be- ginning to feel a bit dizzy but we have thought and still do, that a nicely typewritten resolution tied with baby blue ribbon and presented to the governor with the compliments of the Northern Minnesota Develop- ment association would do much to restore the chief executive’s memory and thus make him true to . past promises. ored an extra session. GOVERNOHS ON WOMEN’S SUFFRAGE. In view of the increasing interest in the question of woman suffrage, the New York World recently asked a number of public men to give their opinion on the subject. Among the replies received were the following: Governor Deneen, of Illinois: “I believe that the sentiment for the ex- tension to women of the right of suf- frage is growing in our state.” Governor Baldwin, of Connecticut: “l recommended in my inaugural message to the recent general assem- bly in this state a grant to tax-paying ‘women of municipal suffrage.” Governor Stubbs, of Kansas: “I am and always have been in favor of submitted to the voters of this state at the fall election of 1912 and will undoubtedly. result in the full en- franchisement of the women in Kan- sas.” Governor Wilson, of Kentucky: I favor school suffrage for women, and T believe they will get it whenever they insist upon it. It is logically correct. There are many people who have a sentiment in-favor of it in Kentucky, and the movement is un- doubtedly increasing.” Governor Mills, of New Mexico: “In my opinion the right to vote in all elections should be given to wom- If the question is ever passed by the legislature and submitted to the male voters, I have no doubt that in this territory the vote would be in the affirmative.” Governor Mann, of Virginia: “In my opinion, the women of Virginia will have equal suffrage within ten years. Evolution of the democratic form of government leads irresistibly to this logical result, and however distasteful en if they desire it. it may be to some, we might as -well face it and prepare for its coming.” 3 * Gavernor Eberhart, of Minnesota| “I favor this movement because wom- an’is entitled to Vote as a matter of right. As to whether or not the sen- timent for this movement is increas- ing in Minnesota, the vote thereon in the legislature would indicate that it is steadily increasing. = While every state in the Union may not be ready to accept woman suffrage within ten years, I believe that the movement is gaining in strength everywhere and that it will be adopted.” West, of Oregon: “I wish to say that I am in favor of the woman suffrage movement. I thing there is justice in the demand of its advocates, and in' my opinion | it ‘will in ‘time be successful in this state. 1 would not attempt to proph- esy whether woman suffrdge will be national in its scope within ten years, | but I do believe that within that time many more states will have adopted it | than at the present time and have its | provisions upon their statute bodks.” | " Governor ve to say that, in my-opinion, the suffrage movement is one that will ultimately win, I have been un- able to find any good reason why men should have: the right of suffrage that does not equally apply to wom- el s Governor Burke, of North Dakota: “In my opinion, the woman suffrage movement is growing and it is only a question of time until there will be adopted in.all the states legislation granting women -the right of suf- frage.” Got His Reward. 01d Maid—But why should a great strong man like you be found begging?
