he committee of the house of repre-
,„utives on constitutional nmend-
„. t . some of the reasons which con-
"Georgia
meed to Woman’s Suffrage in >»
•iers upon that question. MuS Kuth-
rford i* decidedly southern in her
C ard ideals and is a staunch ofc
.crert of the political purpose, of
Woman’s National Suffrage Asso-
iation, of which Dr. Ann* Shaw is
On P Ju:y el 29 Miss Rutherford up-
earcd before the house .committee.
jcV of space prevents the puhljca-
ion of her entire address, but • few
xccrpts are here given.
“As a question of expediency is it
ise to change our Georgia laws
hile the negro question in the south
till remains unsettled? Do, you think
best to tamper with woman auf-
•aje when there is a threatened na-
onal amendment regarding it .which
ould overthrow our state sovereign*
: and transfer the control of our
lections to federal supervirion?
klahoma’s danger from the ‘grand*
ithePs clause’ may be our danger
urn day. Congress has the power
ow under the Bristow amendment to
nnul our ‘disfranchisement acts’ and
e have been put on notice of this by
adirg republicans prior to this re*
:nt decision of the United Ststes
jpreine court West Virginia, V(r-
inia, Maryland, North CsrollllS,
cuth Carolina, Florids, Alabama,
rhansas, Missouri and Tennessee
ave realized the danger of compli*
itions with the federal government
nd have refused to invito trouble
nd their legislatures taw no good In
jbmitting the question to a Vote.
"You have end the warnings given
y the strong legal minds of.Judge
—lack. Judge Cobh, Judge Adams
»nd Colonel Alexander C. King.; Be
sides all of our sovthern congressmen
have also warned us against this po
litical movement of the Woman’s Na-
Consl Suffrage Association. They un
derstand the political .motive and
th ir desire to break into the soutl^
"sing our unsuspecting' women as
their instrumentalities.

To these differences I call your at
tention:
“Those who stand for woman suf
frage desire the Susan B. Anthony.
Mondell amendment that will give ail
citizens the right to vote irrespective
of sex or-color.
“We do not want that in Georgia.
“The suffragists desire the Shaf-
roth amendment, which forces the
governor, regardless of the legisla
ture, to submit the question to a
state upon a petiiton signed by only
8 per cent of the voters of the pre
ceding election, thus taking a short
cut for the Susan B. Anthony amend
ment to become a national law, tak
ing our elections from state regula
tion and placing them upon federal
supervision.
“The Georgia association which I
represent opposes any such device.
“The suffragists stand for presi
dential suffrage, which would make
woman a factor in national politics
in order to press and further federal
amendments.
“The Georgia Association Opposed
to Equal Suffrage rejects such a
proposition.
“The suffragists claim that divNra
protection for women recta in worn-
an#
“We know that it rests in men.
They have ever been our protectors,
Study our inan-made laws for. pro
tecting women and ace what are the
facta. •
“The suffragista claim the ballot as
a natural right.
“We claim it is a means of govern
ment and is a-question of political
expediency.
“The suffragists claim the vote will
bo a gain for woman.
"We feel assured it will be a lost
woman without the ballot being more
influential in promoting legislation,
at the same' time preserving the so
cial harmonies.
“The suffragists claim they cannot
bo citixens without the vote.
“We maintain we are citizens with
more right* than those who vote. Sex
equality means law equality, and law
equality would be to woman’s advan
tage. The staute laws and the un
written laws are in her favor now.
It is so in Georgia.
“The suffragists hope for suffrage
through socialism. All Socialists are
suffragists.
“We regard socialism on the
greatest dangers to combat.
“The snffragists'demand to b* con
sulted upon political conditions effect
ing women and children.
“We are consulted without demand
ing it Compplsory consultation is of
fensive.
“Sufragists depend upon a political
and personal campaign, wiah liberal
uses of finances, to win thoir cause,
“We rest our cause upon its meriU,
"Suffragests declare men will no£
grant their requests.
“We think if the men give their
hearts, their hands, their homes, their
money, their sympathy and laws favor
able to women, they have given a
plenty. To demand more is lack of
consideration.
“They say the old maids and widows
must be protected by law.
“I am an old maid and my sister it
a widow, and our testimony is that
Georgia’* laws have always protected
us.
“Tha suffragist* believe in boycott*
inf,
“We believe boycotting is a low
form of socialism and a disputable
practice.
“They say suffrage will increase
the wages of women.
“We know that women’s wages are
lowest in suffrage states.
“They say suffrage will place wo
men on boards of education.
“We know of women on board* of
education without tho ballot.
"They claim women will control
the liquor evil through their vote.
“But we know that the suffragist*’
’association have not been so activa
along that-line as other organizations
of women. Women voters on the li
quor question have been a disap
pointment' to the country as a rule.
In nonsuffrage states women are
more influential.
“They claim suffrage will purify
politics.
“We can show that the reverse is
true in those states which have wom
en’s suffrage. Men have not been
‘uplifted,’ and women fell into the
political practices of men. The wom
an politician is not an object of ador
ation. Nor has suffrage brought im
provement to the homes. The antag
onisms produced in the home resulted
in divorces, the husband as a rule
seeking the divorce. On the divorce
question statistics from the United
States bureau arc against tha woman
suffrage states. So that socially as
well as politically th* ballot to wom
en ha* proven a failure as an uplift.
The records are the accusers.
“Gentlemen of th* committee, ex
amine into tha requests of the suffra
gists. If any Georgia laws oppress
them, change the law, bnt do not con
fer the ballot. Liberties of the bal
lot without realisation of the respon
sibilities that go with it win be In
jurious to womanhood.
“Observation teaches you that the
women moat active in this suffrage
campaign era not tha ones most ac
tive in church work; in missionary
work, educational enterprises, chari
ty work, in home improvement, in
settlement work—those Aelds which
elevate women and afford avenues to
their activities. The political woman
1* not society’s best asset
“ ‘The glare of public life burns out
of woman ail that loving, yielding
sensibility which makes her so strong;
and yet so lovely in her strength, and
converts her into an unsexed mon
grel, shorn of her true power, and
vainly beating against the air in dis
satisfaction with herself.’’
