NEW iuHK, Dec. 18.—“In pick
ing persons to hold public offices,
woman, because of her sex, should not
be barred, whether she has the right
to vote or not.”
This was the declaration to-day of
State Senator Helen Ring Robinson,
of Colorado, the first and only wom
an in the country to hold a public of
fice of this importance.
"The women in the East, although
working hard for the right to cast a
vote," said Senator Robinson, "seem
to keep the cat in the bag. They say.
I might state, something like this:
" ‘Give us the vote; we do not want
to hold office.’
"Now,” continued the Senator, “I
believe in letting the cat out of the
bag and urging them to state plainly
just what we women do want. Of
course, we want to hold office. Why
shouldn’t we?
"No more reason, the way I look at
It, why a woman shouldn’t be slated
for a public office than a man.
