of Dickinson is vice president-at-large,
a born and bred Iowa suffragist, and
a tower of strength in the western
part of the state.
Although the organization began late
and is not of a very formal order, it
has made rapid strides in the last
•%J
ew
months, and includes in some form
nearly every county. Miss Harriet
«rim of Canton, 111., is in North Da
kota this month on a whirlwind tour,
and has won converts in large num
bers wherever she has spoken. Miss
Jane Thomson, the national field or
ganizer, has also helped in the foun
dation work. Mrs. Darrow and Dr.
Batt, who speaks in German, recently
went across the entire state, stopping
at nearly all towns. Mrs. Amidon,
Mrs. Buttz and Mrs. Falger, editor of
The Suffrage Advocate, the only paper
in the state entirely devoted to suf
frage, have been other speakers.
"Our obvious need is money to
carry on the work," writes Mrs. Dar
row to The Woman's Journal.
"North Dakota has no very rich peo
ple and the summer months are the
ones when money is scarcest in the
state, as every one is waiting to see
how the crop will turn out. Our whole

campaign is so short that we have
practically to convert a man to our
cause and then, without pausing for
breath, ask for money. We have a for
mula when talking to men which we
call the three degrees: 'Do you know?'
*Do you believe?' and "Will you give?'
I must say that my courage often faila
me before I reach the third degree.
With money—not an immense sum, but
a few thousand dollars at our disposal
—we would seem to have a good fight
ing chance to win."
"Except for the Joker in our consti
tution, we would feel that the battle
was won," says Mrs. Amidon.
The North Dakota W. C. T. U. is
conducting a strenuous campaign,
under the direction of Mrs. Elizabeth
Preston Anderson, the state presi
dent. Several national speakers have
been brought into the state, among
them Mrs. Lulu L«oveland Sheppard
of Utah, and more will come.
One of those most vitally interest
ed in securing equal suffrage Is the
policewoman at Fargo, Irma Erwin
PoMiler. She writes to The Woman's
Journal: "A policewoman wants the
vote because it is the one direct and
potent factor in getting the legisla
tion that she as a public guardian de
sires and needs."
Another ardent worker is Dr. Max
Batt, professor of German at the ag
ricultural college. "Our visits to the
smaller communities had the effect of
bringing together those who believed
in suffrage, but who in many cases
did not dare express their belief for
fear that they would stand alone In
this respect," he says.
Some of the best help has been re
ceived from the anti-suffragists, ac
cording to Mrs. William Falger, who
says that their coming did more to
stimulate an interest in suffrage than
anything that has yet happened.
Amid the blare of the bands,
the screeching of the hurdy-gur
dieB and the surging of the
crowds, the North Dakota suffra
gists worked where all was sup
posed to be pleasure at the state
fair. Wonderfully attractive they
were in their simple white gowns
crossed with the ever present yel
low sash upon which the words
"Votes for Women" announced to
all the cause for which they were
working. The suffrage booth was
really attractive. No one passed
it by and hundreds stopped and
asked and were answered, and as
they were answered they went
away with a "By gum, they're
right". Hundreds promised to vote
for the measure this fall, while
others caught enough of the en
thusiasm present to promise to
get others to do the same.
All were impressed with the
wonderful earnestness of these
women. Representing the finest
homes in the state, women who
have been working for years in
directly for prohibition, pure food,
and to sustain those laws, now
asking for the direct method SQ
that time may be saved, enthused
with the idea of the patriotism of
citizenship, they made every day
of the fair count for much and the
work which they started out there
will reach its culmination next
fall.
