Antis Plan Delay, iippinents of woman suffrage will make a llnht to keep the legislature lioin re-submitting the constitutional amendment to the people in the spring election. Their plan Is to keep the measure it: committee until it Is too late to I l int the ballots. As the legislature is exp-cted to sit well Into Anrll. It i ! would be easy for the committee to ( relay fiction until after the election, I on one pretext or another If it i nmes to a iiiestloii of reason or excise for this action, the "antis" have the argument that the spring election vote is always a light one. and that woman suffrage Is a question on which the fullest expression by the slate's electorate should be given. This, they will claim, can be secured Ir a fall election better than in tho r.prlng. And Inasmuch as there is no fall election In I ! 1 .'.. and the same argu ments would apply to any special elec tion, the "anils" would thus bold up the suffrage amendment until the fall I of l!M4. when the next general state (election will be held. i William H.
