KOUAL SUFFRAGE MEETING 
AT TOWN HALL, MANCHES- 
TER 
A goodly number attended the 
equal suffrage meeting at the Man- 
chester Town hall, Wednesday even- 
ing. Miss Louie R. Stanwood, who 
was the first speaker, is well known to 
Manchester people as a summer res1- 
dent here. In her opening words she 
spoke of the Suffrage party as the 
party of hope and mentioned the 
steady gain in the cause and the con- 
ditions in the nine states which have 
given the vote to women as a result 
of the conscientious work on the part 
of the suffrage workers. Illinois, 
which granted partial suffrage last 
year, is a great gain for the cause be- 
cause in that state is Chicago, one of 
the largest cities in the union. Miss 
Stanwood told a little of the Inter- 
national Convention, which met at 
3udapest last year. Nearly every 
country in the world was represented. 
The speaker also described something 
of her sensations and experiences 
when marching in the suffrage parade 
in New York city. 
Miss Stanwood also dwelt at some 
length on the fact that the suffragists 
stand for a higher standard of mo- 
rality and for the single standard as 
opposed to the dual standard, She

further expressed her belief that the 
suffragists, who were progressing, 
were keeping young while the antis, 
who are looking into the past con- 
stantly, are growing old. 
At the close of her remarks Miss 
Stanwood introduced Mrs. Martha 
Chute to the audience. Mrs. Chute is 
very well known to Manchester peo- 
ple as she has come here a_ great 
many summers in connection with her 
work with her brother, Henry Have- 
lock Pierce, the photographer. Mrs. 
Chute is all that Miss Stanwood 
claimed for her, a thorough business 
woman, an artist and a wife and 
mother. 
Mrs, Chute took up the suffrage 
question in comparison with the 
struggle men in England had for en- 
franchisement and even in our own 
country as late as 1826. She pointed 
out the advantages of citizenship for 
the women; the masterpiece of wo- 
man, which is the home and the great 
work of man, which is the state, The 
home was not created by woman un- 
aided by man; can man’s particular 
work, the state, reach its best until 
man is given the help and experience 
of woman? Mrs. Chute’s address 
was very well received by the people 
and she was given generous applause. 
The last speaker was Mrs. Maude 
Wood Park of Boston. Mrs. Park is 
a Boston woman, a graduate of Rad- 
has spoken all over the country in the 
interests of the further extension of 
suffrage to women and has made a 
trip around the world in the same 
cause. She took up the subject from 
a general point of view considering 
democracy and the woman movement 
as going hand in hand. One of Mrs, 
Park’s most impressive points was 
that the higher education of women — 
was bitterly opposed at first and that 
the same arguments are being used 
against woman suffrage today that 
were used against girls being taught 
arithmetic less than one hundred 
years ago. She pointed out the in- 
consistency of a belief in “govern- — 
ment by the people” and a disbeliet — 
in the vote for women. Mrs, Park 
gave some interesting incidents of 
her travels abroad and more particu- 
larly in the Oriental countries re- 
garding the woman question. 
Mrs, Park was an unusually pleas- 
ing speaker and her remarks were 
listened to with marked attention. 
The meeting was open to all after 
she finished speaking and a number 
asked questions concerning points not — 
quite clear. Miss Stanwood and Mrs. — 
Park answered these as far as the 
time allowed. A promise of further 
meetings was given and the subject 
of a debate at Manchester was 
broached and Miss Stanwood pro- 
fessed her approval of the plan.
