- Notes:
- "The protector of women is abroad in the land. he wants her to be a perfect lady. Is it 'ladylike' to scrub, wash, cook, work in a store or factory? Men are willing women should do all these things but to vote--that would be 'unladylike.'
"Did you ever hear it was 'ungentlemanly' to vote? If a man can be a gentleman and vote, why can a woman be a lady and vote?
"Perhaps the remark was intended to apply to society ladies. In that case it would only have force if what society ladies do is so very nice that voting would degrade them. What are those nice things? What do they do more sacred than helping to make a better world by conscientions [sic] and intelligent use of the ballot?
