It was introduced as’ the 16th amendment and has been succes- sively the 17th, 18th and 19th and has been before every session of congress since its initlal appearance. During the first 95 years after its introduction into congress the amend- ment made practically no progress and until seven years ago it had not been debated on the floor for 30 years. But the campaign for the movement was, slowly but steadily gaining ground in the states. x Meanwhile Miss Anthony made a test of the right of women to cast the ballot by going to the polls and voting. She was arrested and convicted and, though she refused to pay her fine, was never jailed. She became, however, the fore- runner of the “militants” who adopted the forceful tactics of the latter days of the campaign, State after state gradually enfran- chised its women citizens. Beginning with Wyoming in 1869, by 1919 sixteen states had given women the right to vote, and. fourteen states had presi- dential suffrage previous to ratifica- tion of the amendment. The history of militancy in America. is so recent that it is familiar to tho public. It began in 1913 with the or- ganization of the National Woman's Party and has continued to date. The Women used every effort and took every advantage to enforce their demands. Promptly with the passage of the amendment by the congress the suf- frage forces turned their attention to ratification by the. necessary. three- fourths of the states, More special ses- sions of the state legislatures were call- ed to act uponi the 19th than. upon any otehr amendment. The states ralified in the following order: Wisconsin, Michigan, New York, Kansas, Ohio, Tinois, Pennsyl- vania, Massachusetts, Texas, Iowa, Missourj, Arkansas, ‘Montana, Ne- braska, Minnesota, ‘New Hampshire, Utah, California, Mairie, North Dakota, South Dakota, Colorado, Rhode Island, Kentucky, Oregon, Indiana, Wyoming, Willare ‘The pioneer battery on motor Has stood the test of of time. ‘Used o 85 per cent of the Bh tectrically equipped cars today.
