PARTies, like men, have their ups and downs
13/16

If all women should fall in with them there would be nothing of womanhood left, and the world bereft of its women will become a masculine harlotocracy.
Let me repeat that I have been fighting woman's battles in one way and another all my life.

I am not opposed to Votes for Women.

But I would discriminate and educate, and even at that rate I would limit the franchise to actual taxpayers, and, outside of these, confine it to charities, corrections and schools, keeping woman away from the dirt of politics.

I do not believe the ballot will benefit woman and cannot help thinking that in seeking unlimited and precipitate suffrage the women who favor it are off their reckoning! I doubt the performances got up to exploit it, though somehow, when the hikers started from New York to Albany, and afterward from New York to Washington, the inspiring thought of Bertha von Hillern came back to me.
I am sure the reader never heard of her.

As it makes a pretty story let me tell it.
