WOMEN FORCE SUFFRAGE
Piatform Declares in Favor of
? Submitting Constitutiona!
Amendment to Voters.
WON AFTER A HARD FIGHT
Victory Means That Both Sexes
Will Vote in This State in a
Few Years, Say Ex
ultant Leaders.
fFYom a Staff Corre-spon.lent ot The Trlbune.]
Syracuse, Oct. 2.-After a hard flght, the
advocntes of woman suffrage won a vic?
tory thls afternoon and brought about the
adoptlon of a woman suffrage plank in
the Democratic piatform.
The plank, which was drawn up under
the dlrectlon of the chairman of the reso
lutions commlttee, Senator Robert F.
Wagner. who has been characterlzed as
the worst foe of woman suffrage by Mrs.
Harrlot Stanton Rlatch, president of the
Women's Politlcal Unlon, follows:
"We declare ln favor of submitting to
the voters of the state. as soon as possl
ble. the woman suffrage constltutional
amendment."
When the plank was read at the con?
ventlon here to-day the women cheered
and the male frlends shouted their ap
proval, whlle hundre.ls of suffrage ftags
were waved.
"It means that women will be votlng
ln this state at the Presldentlal electlon ln
1916," said Mrs. Rlatch, "and it remalns
for us to work wlth a will from now on
to roll up a big vote for the woman suf?
frage constltutional amendment ln 1915."
To the questlon, "Will the women suf?
frage organlzatlona unlte ln worklng
toward thls end?" Mrs. Blatch replied:
N'o; 1 believe ln healthy competltlon.
And I believe that ls the way most
women feel on thls subject. Retter results
will he galned by havlng the suffrage
clubs work In their own way. Such a
e.-impalgn will m*nn considerable tlme
and mone*r, and were we to amslgamate
I do not thlnk we could be as suocessful.
Miss Carollne I^>tow. of Nyaok, one
of the hardest workers among the wom?-n
at thls and at the Saratoga conventlon.
sald:
I feel sure we will be votlng ln thia
state before long. Public sentiment la
wlth us. and no longer are we molested
at our street meetlngs. The change has
been amazing, and In a few yeara th*
entire I'nited States will have followed
the six states whlch now give to woman
the same rlghts as they give to man.
And you do not want to forget that in
these six states it was the votes of Re
publlcans which gave us suffrage.
The campaign of the women, whlch
closed here wlth the adoptlon of th*
plank, was picturesque. Wlth Miss Lexow
and Mrs. Blatch as speakers, street meet?
lngs were held nlghtly ln front of th*
Onondaga Hotel. The addresses were
made from a big tourlng car loaned by
Mrs. Frederlck C. Ha.ard, chairman af
the local woman suffrage committee.
This car, draped in the colors of the
Woman's Politlcal I'nlon, green. white aml
purple, and flylng big flugs of the "Votes
for Women" varlety, sped through the
streets of the clty during thf day.
For the flrst tlme In thls state a huge
suffrage banner, thlrty feet wlde, was
dlsplayed In front of a state conventlon
to-day. When the delegates marched to
the hall they saw stretched be*tween two
telegraph poles, in letters four feet hlgh,
thls inscrlption:
"Women's Politlcal Union-Votes for
Women ln 191.i."

[By Telegraph to The Trlbune. ]
Albany. Oct. 2.?Governor Dlx declared
to-night that he had recelved no requeet
from Syracuse to wlthdraw hls candldaey,
nor had he aent word statlng that he
would do so. He had no Intentlon of

The Governor showed plalnly that h*
consldere.d himself a progreaalve ln a
statement he mad? when asked about
the piatform adopted to-day by the Demo?
cratic State Convention. He sald that
whlle he had not yet had tlme to read
the plat.'orm he underatood what lt araa
to contaln.
"It waa drawn along the line of the
Rochester piatform of two yeara ago,1*
said Mr. Dlx. "and I waa largely ln*tru?
mental ln the maklng up of that piatform.
It waa one of the most progreaarve. evsr
adopted bv any state. Therefore. you can
see the absurdlty of ray wlthdrawlng now
ln favor of a progressive."
Oovernor Dlx sent a messenger to Syr.
