The Harwinton Fair and the Suflleld
‘ Fair have also been visited this week .
by bands of suifrage workers. These
Ilairs are shorter and less important
. than the Danbury Fair, but they offer
~ . opportunities for suffrage work which
. ‘ are not overlooked by the advocates
- ‘ of Votes for Women. Miss Alise
[ Gregory, the second State organizer,
. . was in charge of the work at the
Sflleld Fair. while Mrs. A, E. Scran-
‘ ton Taylor of Norfolk, chairman of.
utchfield County in the Connecticut
Woman Suffrage Association, brought
a band of workers to the fair at Han;
' winton, and set 11p her suffrage tent
where it would attract the most inter.-
est and attention. The Harwinton

to the support of Mrs. Taylor, and‘

more chances of organizing a suffrage ‘
According to a statement put out ,.
by Mrs. Dodge, the Antis seem to ,
sincere and trustworthy, must agree
with every other suffragist on all '
matters both of principle and policy.‘
She mistakes altogether the suffrage ,
monument. The demand for votes for . .
wpgnen is a demand that women shall
have the right to express themselves
politically according to their own
convictions. Suffragists' ask for ' ‘
woman suffrage. On all other points
they are at liberty to hold any .opin~
ions they. see fit. They',are also at
liberty to hold different opinions as
to the best policy to be pursued to
obtain the vote. When they gain the
vote, they will use it for their own
protection and for the furtherance of
such reforms as appeal to them. Suf-
followers as to how they are going to I
vote when suffrage is gained for
them, and just as men of every shade ’ ‘
of opinion may come together in 111- . ~
vor of some reform that appeals to all
of them, so women are standing to-
gether for woman suffrage, while dil- ,
fering on all other questions.
It is the Anti~Suifragists who be
lieve that they themselves or two or ’
three of their leaders can speak for
the “vast majority of the women of ,
the United States." The suffragists
are asking that every woman shall‘
have the right to speak for herself.
and to be represented by herself at '
the polls. in the multitude of minds
there is wisdom. but not much wis-
dom if they were merely a flock of ,
sheep all thinking alike.
