When His well known that the meat Just and equable of sovereigns have been women, why shauld the people protest against the simple right of franchise, the flint preliminary step political advancement. That is always highest, best and mcst complete in which man and woman both participate, and the highest political and general good will be attained when men and women work harmoniously for the of the human family; politically as well ith-appreciat- ive er l, 1 enlhuslsm. and was received v.
