Show The Battle In Mnssachusett. The municipal woman suffrage bill will be taken tip and acted "upon by the" Massachusetts house of representatives aa soon as the decision of the supreme court is obtained upon the constitutionality constitu-tionality of the three amendments which the opponents have vainly sought to engraft en-graft upon the bill 1, that the law shall not take effect unless ratified by the men of the state; or, 2, by the men and women of the state; or, 8, shall take effect only in those towns or cities in which it shall be ratified by the men. It is probable that if the opponents succeed in adding any one of these three amendments amend-ments to the bill they will immediately turn round as they did last year and vote against the bill as amended. Last year's experience shows that it is a mere effort to evade the issue. Let it be squarely met. If municipal woman suffrage is right, enact it; if wrong, vote it down. Boston Woman's Journal. |
