EQUAL SUFFRAGE GIVEN BIG BOOST Minnehaha County Women Entertain Visitors at Dinner Speakers Declare Woman's Patriotism Has Been Tested and That She Is Entitled to Ballot How Inseparably the cause of equal suffrage is linked with the war, entitling the women who are bearing increasing large burdens to enjoy the same civic rights, was shown last eveing at a dinner given by the Minnehaha County Franchise league at the Cataract hotel in honor of Mrs. Albert MeMahon and Mrs. Frank J.

He introduced as the first speaker of the evening, Mrs. S. V. Ghrist of Miller, vice president of the South Dakota Franchise league, who spoke on the status of the state citizenship amendment, which will be voted upon next November.

"Under the terms of this amendment, which the men of the legislature proposed without the assistance of the women, a voter, either man or woman, must be either native born or fully naturalized. There has been something of the spirit of Germany in South Dakota in the past, some Prussianism in holding women down. Other men thinkingly put women on a pedestal. but woman asks only her chance to develop and be a part of the life of the state. Let a man have to swear his allegiance to the country before voting.

Some have voted for years without being naturalized and then, when war came, they claimed exemption on the ground of being aliens. are sharing today in increasing numbers and scope, the responsibility entailed by the war and we ask to share the privileges and rights.

McMahon, "may be everything, may do everything, may assume all responsibility, yet she cannot vote. This is Illogical, undemocratic and un- American. Woman is now standing side by side with man in the war. Let her share the rights just as she is answering the call to duty." Woman's Patriotism Tested. C.

L. Dotson spoke with great feeling on the war and the part the women are playing in it and their consequent right to share in the maintenance of the principles of freedom. "Women's patriotism has been tested many times and always he said, "and the women must help to Americanize this nation." C. A. Christopherson, republican nominee for congress from the first district, predicted victory for the gutfrage forces in South Dakota in November and declared that he did not see how a man who understood the issue, could vote otherwise than for the amendment, which was strictly American.
