Nashville, Aug. 18.—Wom. _ frage became a part of the of the United States today when the Tennessee ' legislature ratified = the Susan 'B. Anthony constitutional| amendment. The Tennessee house passed the ratified reso]utmn which had already been ado] t 'bsy the senate. The vote was & (By United Press.) The Nineteenth amendment to the Constitution of the United States. is a living monument to its dead framer, Susan B. Anthony. Passed by congress and ratified by three-fourths of the states in almost the exact words as set down by “the emancipator,” the measure gives full and impartial franchise to 25,000,000 American women, com- prising the largest body of citizens ever admltted -at_one time to the ballot in the United States. While the fight for equal repre- sentation for both sexes was begun as early as thg first year.of American independence, no serious, organized or determined effort was made in . 'woman’s behalf until the days of Miss Anthony. In 1848 at Seneca Falls, N. Y., Miss Anthony called to order the first national woman’s suffrage convention. ' Attempts at - partial \mfluge by states were .made first\in Kansas. That was before 1865, and not until 1867 were suffrage leadem able to get a proposition before the state legislature. It was defeated at that time and suffered additional setbacks until 1874 when the state assembly voted to strike out word “male” from the suffrage clause in the state con- stitution. Other attempts, in many, cases sim- ilar to the Kansas situation, were made in Michigan, 1874; Colorado, 1877 and 1893; Nebraska, 1882; Oregon, 1884 and 1900; Rhode Isl- and, 1886; 1898; 1898;. 1896. In all moves made for eni’ranchlse- ment of women in the United States, Susan I Anthony stood out most promine’§ly. Born in 1820 naar Adams,”Mass., Miss Anthony be; to take an active interest in politics for women after she had taught in South Dakota, 1890 . and California, 1896, and Idaho, private schools in New York state| and New England. After rebuff on top of rebuff but still undaun@d be- cause, she said, she knew’ her cause was right, she assumed national con- trol of suffrage .mattets on the oc- casion of the Seneca Falls convention. The most memorable incident in the career of Miss Anthony, whose unassuming character endeared ‘her to thousands of American women as we#l as men, occurred in 1872 when she was arrested at \her home in Rochester, N. Y., on a federgl war-| rant charging her with fllegally vot-| ing in, the congressional election of that year. "With her thirteen other suffrage pioneers were hailed to court, as were four election judges apd clerks who accepted the women's ballots. - i The trial \. before Judge Hunt created a naXlonal sensation. _ Dis- missing the cases before him, Judge Hunt after a speedy hearing took the cases away from the jury and fined Miss Anthony $100 and costs. The|uational iéaining: defendant’s plea was that she had vated under the Fourteenth amend- ment to the Constitution, which gave the vote to all citizens without respect to “race, color or prevnous condition of servitude.” When asked whether there was any reason why she should not be sentenced, Miss Anthony said: “May it please your honor, I will never pay a dollar of your unjust penalty. All the stock in trade I have is a debt of $10,000 incurred in publishing my paper, The Revolution. The sole ob- ject of which is to educate all women | to do precisely what I have done and to rebel against your man-made; un- Jjust and unconstitutional forms of ‘law which tax, fine, imprison and-hang women, while denymg them the right of representation in governmeéht.” Friends later paid the fine"and the costs were dropped. Newspapers throughout the country sharply con- demned the court’s decision and gave Miss Anthony credit for winhning a vxctory immeasurably valuable to woman’s suffrage. (By United Press.) Raleigh, N. C., Aug. 18.—The low- er house of North Carolina legis- lature today was to take up the federal woman suffrage amendment, which the senate refused to ratify yesterday. The senate postponed ac- tion until next week. i e e N SAVE WASTE PAPER Few of \us realize the importance of saving waste paper, Today when the country is threatened with a wood and paper famine and our for- ests are disappearing so rapidly every effort should- be made to save every scrap of paper. It is estimated that the saving of paper would make it * possible to save over 1,000,000,000 feet of lumber each year. Waste pa- per such as old magazines, books, all kinds of printed matter and paper books takes the place of wood pulp and saves millions of trees. Such ~ material is used for paper, making paper,-boxes, roofing and building boargls_.and paper shipping containers of all kinds, which carry as much as 100,pounds. If every one would save the waste paper in his home it would not be necessary to use a single tree for such material. It would require more than 500,000,000 feet of lum- ber each year to make the paper ship- plng cages used throughout the coun- try.—August Boys’ Life. [Rye . . .
