Woman Suffrage in Michigan

May 14, 1874 issue

add to cart   close window

The question of woman suffrage is to be submitted to the people of Michigan at the coming fall election and the newspapers of the State are already indulging into the discussion of it. Michigan is, however, an excellent State which has a large and more than usually intelligent and educated population, which has shown itself hitherto neither over-conservative nor over progressive and has managed to get very good government out of both old and new ways. The agitation in the favor of woman's suffrage received a great impetus from the advocacy of English philosopher and reformer John Stuart Mill.
