It was tbe above little plunk that
inspired Uov. Ferguson of Texas to
mount tbe platform in the Coliseum
aud read a minority report withhold
ing the party support from the ladies
who want the vote. That thu Demo
cratic party should scorn the political
exigencies of the situation and defy
the 12 western states in which women
vote was the burden of his argument.
Sharing the same opinion with him
were C. L. Bartlett of Georgia,
Stephen B. Fleming of Indiana and
“Jim” Nugent ot New Jersey, the old-
time enemy of President Wilson. This
trig signed the minority report with
the Texan.
, ‘ Lined up against Gov. Ferguson,
who acted as spokesman for the mi
nority, were Senator Stone of Mis
souri, Senator Pittman of Nevada and
Senator Walsh of Montana.
Senator Walsh did not mince mat
ters in his argument for the adoption
cf the suffrage plank. He stated plain
ly the adoption of the plank was
necessary as a matter of political ex
pediency, adding that the present
Talitieal situation In this country was
e condition and not a theory.
“The states in which women vote
control 91 votes in tbe electoral col
lege," he said, adding signillcantly,
“every political party has declared for
woman suffrage in some way or other.
It becomes a simple question whether
you will incur the enmity of these
women.

states west of the Missouri river that
returned Democratic senators and now
we have 15 of them. The question is,
are you ready to surrender the 15
votes you have in the United States
senate and turn them over to your
political enemies?”
In conclusion, Senator Walsh said
that be revealed no secret when he
said President Wilson knew all about
the suffrage plank.
“The president believes it vital to
his success that it stay in the plat
form,” he said. “I ask you in ail the
fervor of my soul, who is there wiser
or more patriotic than he?”
Following Senator Walsh's speech.
Gov. Ferguson was allowed five min
utes for rebuttal. The vote was then
taken and his minority report voted
■down, after which the original suf
frage plank, as approved by the reso
lutions committee was unanimously
adopted.
The Women Delegates.
The presence of the 16 women dele
gates at the Democratic convention
not only added color to the affair, but
changed the views of a number of the
men delegates on the subject ef po
litical activity for women. For the
women delegates were a fine, whole
some-looking lot and they fought just
au enthusiastically for the best Inter
ests of the party as the men.
Three of them. Miss Mary E. Foy
of California, Mrs. T. S. Talliaferro
of Wyoming, and Mrs. W. A. Harris
of Kansas, spoke before the resolu

frage plank which the National Apier-
