Mrs. W. J. Bartlett Among Pickets
Held at Washington Richard J
Healey and Adelard Barbeau First
Two Men to Leave for Camp Dav
ana Crowded Trains Go Through-
General Putnam's Famed Plow Now
(at Hartford.
"I suppose you . are wondering will
I go to iail for the cacse?" said Mrs
W. J. Bartlett in a message received
here ' Wednesday afternoon from
Washington, where Mrs. Bartlett is
held, with a dozen other suffragists,
for having carried banners in the
demonstration at the nation's capital
Tuesday.
In her special message to The Bul
letin Mrs. Bartlett further states rel
ative to the difficulty and in relation
to the quotation above, "If that's what
we must do for liberty in America,
then I guess I'll be there, but I really
can t believe It. I have yet to have
it proved. I am here to work for the
passage of the Susan B. Anthony
amendment. I will do nothing against
the law. If I am sent to jail for that
which is our legal right, - America
must be made safe for democracy."
Newspaper announcements Wednes
day morning that Mrs. Bartlett had
been taken into custody at Washing
ton created a flurry of interest in this,
Mrs. Bartletts home city. For sev-
eral years she has been one of the
most ardent, active and efficient of
Connecticut? s suffrage workers and
has traveled the state over in the in
terest of the cause, speaking before
scores of subordinate granges, at Po
mona grange meetings and her ad
dresses to these and other organiza
tions number hundreds.
Her successful work won her quick
recognition from the leaders of the
Connecticut Woman's Suffrage asso
ciation arrd led to hep appointment as
a member of the executive committee
of the state organization and her ap
pointment as chairman for Tolland
county.
Untiring and zealous, she has kept
up a constant campaign for equal suf
frage rights for women in Connecticut
and has lent aid to the national move
ments have their center of activity at
the national capital.
She is the first of the suffragists
from eastern Connecticut to be caught
in the swirl of the picketing cam
paign and the fact that she was taken
into custody came as a startling sur
prise to the people of this city.
Mrs. Bartlett's message above given
indicates that her spirit is indomita
ble and that even a threat of jail has
no terrors for her. Her message is
characteristic of her attitude toward
any effort to check the onward sweep
of the suffragist movement to victory
and she does not believe that the picketing-
campaign is in any way injur
ious to the success of the movement,
but, on the other' hand will hasten
the triumph of the woman,! cause.
