Published on the 100th Anniversary of the day that 4 ex.-Quart eat, gfaafoa submitted the first resolution in the world demanding the Elective Franchise for Women Seneca Falls, N. Y., July 19, 1848 Elizabeth Cady Stanton was born in Johnstown, New York, on No- vember l2th, 1815. Her family was wealthy, judged by contempo- rary standards, and she could have lead a life of ease and luxury, but the seed of divine discontent was A within her. The sad lot of most women penetrated her soul at an early age, and she chose, instead, a life of continual work, hardship and battle. She had to contend with op- position within the family, also. Her determination to speak in public, and her stand for the enfranchisement of her sex caused her father to disin- herit her. Yet she was never hitter , and her dignity, humour, unbounded health and energy carried her through the ocean of ridicule, frus- trations, prejudice and intolerance to the ripe age of 86 years. She was ageless, , and could en- _ thrall my English and French cous- ins and me with stories of her youth as easily as she could move a vast audience with her oratory and logic. Her lectures and writings covered the whole field of human progress———— “Motherhood”, “Sex”, “Our Boys”, “Our Girls”, °‘Woman Suffrage”, “Dress Reform ”, “Woman, the Church and the Bible”. She was a diligent Greek scholar and a great student of the Bible. She inveighed against the degraded position accord- ed to women by the orthodox churches of her generation. She was a Unitarian, and a firm believer in the brotherhood of man and the right to political and economic equal- ity of all human beings regardless of color or sex or race. Seneca Falls was her home for 16 years from 1847. The little town seethed with activity from the day she set her foot there, and on July 19 and 20,1848, the long-discussed plans of Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott to hold a Woman’s Rights Convention were realized. One hundred well-known men and women attended and signed the “Declaration of Sentiments”, but it was Mrs. Stanton who moved the reso- lution that women should be granted the elective franchise, a motion sec- onded by Frederick Douglass. A storm of protest arose, but the motion was carried by a small margin. Over the cries of ridicule and denunciation heaped on the Convention and its sponsors by pulpit and press arose the clarion voice of Wendell Phillips. ————“This is the inauguration of the most momentous reform yet launched upon the world, the first organized protest against the injus- tice that has brooded for ages over the character and destiny of half the human race”————, and Frederick Doug- lass in “Lone Star” and Horace Gree- ley in New York Tribune published the only editorials in praise of the Convention and its objectives. Often reformers of one generation _ become the conservatives of the next. , Thiswas not true of Mrs. Stanton. She wrote a letter which was read at the celebration of the 50th anniver- sary of the 1848 Convention, which ended as follows: “. . . My message today to our coadju- tors is that we have a higher duty than the demand for suffrage. We must now, at the end of fifty years of faithful ser- vice, broaden our platform and consider the next step in progress, to which the signs of the times clearly point,———name- ly, co-operation, a new principle in in- dustrial economics. We see that the right of suffrage avails nothing for the masses in competition with the wealthy classes, and worse still, with each other. “Women all over the country are working earnestly in many fragmentary reforms, each believing that her own, if achieved, would usher in a new day of peace and plenty. With woman suf- frage, temperance, social parity, rigid Sunday laws and physical culture, could any, or all, be successful, we should see changes in the condition of the masses. We need all these reforms and many more to make existence endurable. What is life today to the prisoner in his cell, to the feeble hands that keep time with machinery in all our marts of trade, to those that have no abiding place, no title to one foot of land on this green earth? Such are the fruits of competi- tion. Our next experiment is to be made on the broad principle of co-operation. At the end of fifty years, whose achieve- ments we celebrate here today, let us reason together as to the wisdom of lay- ing some new plank in our platform. “The co-operative idea will remodel codes and constitutions, creeds and cat- echisms, social customs and convention- alism, the curriculum of schools and colleges. It will give a new sense of jus- tice, liberty and equality in all the re- lations of life. Those who have eyes to see recognize the fact that the period for all the fragmentary reforms is ended. “Agitation of the broader questions of philosophical Socialism is now in order. This next step in progress has been fore- shadowed by our own seers and prophets, and is now being agitated by all the thinkers and writers of all civilized coun- tries. “The few have no right to the luxuries of life, while the many are denied its necessities. This motto is the natural out- growth of the one so familiar on our platform and our official paper, ‘Equal Rights for All’. It is impossible to have ‘equal rights for all’ under our present competitive system. ‘All men are born free, with an equal right to life, liberty and happiness’. The natural outgrowth of this sentiment is the vital principles of the Christian religion. ‘Love thy neighbor as thyself’. In broad, liberal principles, the suffrage association should be the leader of thought for wom- en, and not narrow its platform, from ‘year to year, to one idea, rejecting all relative ideas as side issues. “Progress is the victory of a new thought over old superstitions!” If she were living today, she would no doubt be a champion of civil rights and just as many unpopular causes as in 1848. She would be de- manding the full emancipation of woman and equality of rights under law, inveighing against intolerance and bigotry, imperialism and monop- oly, and championing the rights of the common man throughout the world. Until 1900, she held, the pre-emi- nent position in the feminist move- ment, not only in her own country but throughout Europe too. During the last years of her life, she was uni- versally known as “The Grand Old Woman of America”. Some of the high lights of her long life were: In 1848, was the principal organ- izer of the first Woman’s Rights Con- vention, and moved the woman suf- frage resolution. In 1854, the first woman to ad- dress the New York legislature from the speaker’s rostrum. She was president of New York State -Woman Suffrage Society in 1854. She helped form the first National organization for woman’s rights—— The National Woman’s Sufirage As- sociation, and was its president from its inception almost continuously for 20 years (1869-1890). When later the American Woman Suffrage Association merged with the National Woman’s Suffrage Associa- tion to become the National Ameri- can Woman Suffrage Association, she was elected president. She made the principal address at the great Cooper Union mass meet- ing in 1861, calling on Lincoln to free women as well as the Negro, and enfranchise both. She ran for Congress in New York State in 1866. In 1869, when the family finances were at a low ebb and the education of the five younger children in jeop- ardy, she registered with the Lyceum hureau, and toured the country from Maine to Texas on the famous Or- pheum Circuit, earning from $100.00 to $200.00 per lecture. She did not stop this arduous work until Bob, her youngest, was graduated from Cornell University in 1881. She and Packer Pillsbury edited the periodical, “The Revolution,” from 1868 to 1871. She made the principal address when the W7oman Suffrage Amend- ment was first introduced in Congress in 1878. She wrote her coworker, Su- san B. Anthony, who was lecturing in the West, an account of it. This amendment was identical with that finally passed in 1919 as the 19th Amendment (sometimes erroneously named the Susan B. Anthony Amend- ment). s The three first volumes of the “His- tory of Woman Suffrage” early edi- tions, bear the legend, “Edited by Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony, Matilda, .1 oslyn, Gage.” She initiated the International A Woman Suffrage Committee in 1882, in England. On her 80th birthday in 1895, there was a huge celebration at the Metropolitan Opera House of New York City, with memorials and pres- ents from every state, anddmany from abroad. In the Smithsonian Institute at Washington, there stands a large goblet presented to her by the Wom- an Suffrage League on which is en- graved, “Defeated Day by Day, but unto Victory Born”. The reforms she advocated and for which she was ridiculed have largely come to pass: Higher education for women; won1an’s political enfranchisement; dress reform; short skirts; the aban- donment of corsets; the abandonment of swaddling clothes and tight ban- dages for babies; the abandonment of seclusion for women during preg- nancy; getting up soon after child- birth, and continuing one’s duties; liberal divorce laws; a single stand- ard of morals; equal guardianship; property rights, etc. But some of her demands of 1848 still remain unaccomplished, as for instance, complete emancipation of women so that they may have equal- ity of rights under the law, and the full protection of the Constitution. And with all this public activity, she bore and reared seven children, five boys and two girls. There is a letter from an admirer of hers, my grandfather, writing from Washington, January 16, 1857, to my aunt Margaret Livingston Stanton, then five years old. He said: “Tell your mother that I have seen a throng of handsome ladies, but that I had rather see her than the whole of them :————hut I intend to cut her acquaintance unless she writes me a letter.” My memories of my Queenmother, as all of us grandchildren called her, are of a delightful person to live with and play with. Backgammon, chess and checkers were our almost night- ly amusement. I have memories of men and women, colored and white, of high and low estate, seeking her counsel and advice. The mornings she spent writing endless letters and articles. During those years, 1897 to 1902, she wrote her autobiography, “Eighty Years and More”, and also “The Woman’s Bible” (her delight- ful commentaries on the women characters of the Bible and her inter- pretations) . Indefatigable to the end, the day before she died, she wrote a letter to Theodore Roosevelt urging him to include sponsoring woman sulirage in his inaugural address. A great writer, author, feminist, philosopher, orator and reformer, friend of Phillips, Douglass, Carri- son, Greeley, Whittier, the Brights and McLarens and feminists through- out the world, passed on into history the 26th day of October, 1902. The author lived with her during the last years of her life, at 26 West 61 st Street and 250 West 94th Street, New York City. Additional copies can be obtained by writing Box 436, Greenwich, Conn. Price 25 cents, postage paid.

In July, 1848, history records the first movement among women for the discussion of their political, religious and social wrongs. Since then the demand for the right of suffrage has extended over many countries and has been granted, in one form or another, in the United States, in England and her colonies, in Australia, New Zealand, the Isle of Man and New South Wales. I Tax-paying women have voted by proxy in several nations of the Old World for many years. In the long history of woman's srongs there never has been so favorable a time to demand her complete emancipation in the United States as now, for we have for the first time in this Republic a President who has declared himself in favor of woman‘s political equality. When President Roosevelt was Governor of New York he recommended the enfranchisement of the women of the State in his message to the New York Legislature, and expressed the same opinion on several public occasions. Now is the opportune time for leading women to ask the President to make the same demand in his coming Message to Congress for this act of justice to thirty~six million American citizens new defrauded of their most sacred right, one that underlies all others, a voice in the laws. For, as the Fathers said long ago: “No just government can be formed without the consent of the governedg“ & In a speech made by the President at Fitchbnrg on Labor Day, he said that he was “in favor of an amendment to the Constitution of the the United States, conferring ndditionel power upon the fefierel government to deal with corporations." To control end restrain giant monopolies for the best interests of all the people is of vast import, but of far vaster importance is the establishment and protection of the rights end liberties of one half the people of the United States ~« the most moral half, too ~ namely, women. Surely there is no greater monopoly than that of ell men in denying to all women a voice in the laws they ere oomoelled to obeye Qotober 203 1902. Elisabeth Gndy Stanton. Note: This is a copy of the appeal written & prepared for mailing to the press by Mrs. Stanton e few days before her death. October 26, 1902. An envelope addressed to Oswald Villerd, Editor of the Nation is attached.

You never reply or comment on anything I say, so that I never know whether you get any of my letters. It is most unsatisfactory. I sent you two letters last week each containing $50. Let me know if you get them. Just received one here from you. I had thought it might wellibr you to remain another year in Boston, spend your summers in reading. I want you to be thoroughly prepared before making your debut sotshat you may feel satisfied with your own work I suffer the miserable feeling all the time of condemnation of my own efforts. 2” If another year at Boston would, you feel, be of great service there is no hurry Take your time, all the culture you need Ofcnurse I long to have you.with me, but I desire your improvement first. Tell-me-my~sweet—ene;-why-yea I have just returned from my lecture.. Am sitting alone in a little Hotel on the prairies away beyond the Mississippi in Kansas & shall be going west in this state & Nebraska for a month yet, further, further from my precious girl baby I cannot tell you how happy the thought that in two months we shall meet again, to part no more, for if you go to Boston next winter I shall go too. I intend to stick to you like a burr closer than a brother. But I must to bed. Good night my pretty one. Tell Marmie all about your blues, who advised you, & if you lack any of the comforts of life. Lay all your little arms on my shoulders With love & kisses $ 7,: ‘VV V ‘-31! Mother‘

Especially mignonette. I have never succeeded in raising that flower yet. Henry is busy gardening & I am nearly through house- cleaning. We have been home just two weeks, - found everything safe y& sound. It seems a long time since I parted with you & Cousin Nancy at N. Y. How is dear Cousin N.? How utterly vain all the a must seem to her as they do to any sick body.i Wilkeson is getting better at the water cure & now Gate is going. She has sent Maggie to Johnstown. who nurse & two younger children are to come tozme next week. Bayard is to go with his mother, so she will shut up her house & be free from all care for a time. "Dear Cate she has had a hard winter of it. The old house at Johnstown is being pulled down. We looked for you there every day for a week. Why did you not come? My children have all been through the mumps dispensation.i How do yours manage the whooping cough? When you write which I hope will M be soon tell me all about your household & how the house at - ‘f gets on. That trunk Dear Liz was elegantly packed & the satin ress came without a wrinkle. I must give you Mama's last for Cousin Nancy to laugh at. She was reading David Copperfield & when she finished the last nunber, I said, Well Mans how do you like it “oh! said she, “I did like it,depend upon it that Stenotyge is going Eogrun away with Emily", almost equal t3““61a Dobbin & Susan~ Knifer . I Give a great deal of love from Henry & me to each & all. The spirits seem to be making some new manifestations. I am,convincedy that it is all humbug. How strange is not that these very minds that reject Christ & his miracles & all the mysteries of the Bible because they are opposed to reason & the truth as we see it in other revelations of God's laws, should be deluded by this miserable piece of humbug. I believe this is all done by some human means. There's nothing more wonderful about this than the preformances of the necronancer. My Seneca women wish to know when they get their land. Ask Charley if we sent our list. I wrote mine out last fall if he has not got it I will make another I 4 Margaret Pryor, Wate2mlo0 Seline Birdsell, Waterloo Harriet Roberts, Seneca Falls rhe names of the other two I have forgotten but I will find out a send them again. will you mention these to Charley, or Cousin Gerrit whoever attends to this securing of bank billsyamongst the ranks of humandty or if the bid must be made out in a business manner I will add mine to Henry's. When you write to aunt Bell give ny love to her. When you come hither we will go up & see her. You must not postpone until grape season this year, it will be too late for you.* Good night your Cousin Lib Aadr.ss.a to Elizabeth Smith Miller Peterboro, Madison Co.,N.Y.

Good night to thee angel we have thee alone May loyal celestials welcome thee home A May eherie spirits enter, And kneel round thy bed So thou tell us tomorrow All all they have said And tell us moreover if in that whole train There comes one more noble than Gerrit of fees. General John Coohrane A void is in our feast tonight Where‘s Gen.John the brave He's gone to point the northern light To the anxious shipwreck slave When he comes back we'll deck his bros with leurels ever green. The figurehead on the old ship of State Shall be Gen. John Coehrane. (Verses written for her guests by Elizabeth Cedy Stanton)

She tells three lies this month. She says she was next to you to wear the dress. I wore it several weeks before she did. She says she does not wear a bodice I have never seen her without one, & a very long one too. She says I write over my own signature as much- as to say that I donot write any of the editorials. In this very number are six editorials written by me. The whole column share your name is mentioned is mine, then “The Detroit Tribune", about the Lowell girls & the man in pettiooats.y Which one of us is responsible for this lack of moral senmiment in child? =A.man was sent here from J Boston to get a daguereotype of Mrs. B. for the “Beaten museum“ 3 paper published in that city. It is quite a large paper & the whole first page is devoted to a biographical sketch & full length out of Mrs. B. I think Julius you ought to be thankful that your name has not been blazoned about as a leader of fashion, a kind of female Beau Brummel. I am sure I am glad that I have kept out of this part of the preformance. I would as soon have my name on the bottle I family all over the country, as Lunds Sasaparilla or Stains panacea. No Julius you can immortalize yourself on something better than petticoats.l Julius you must write. You write,excellent letters. Do write one for the next Lily, about servants; children, the costume, labor, or anything. Suppose you write a series of letters to mothers.

You need not let anyone but Massa Johnson know _ ‘until you appear in print & are approved.J Now do this Julius. Amelia & I get on delightfully. We have been feasting on strawberries. My baby is very good & grows finely. I continue to be his nurse & it iiseasier to look after him than to train an ignorant Irish girl.

Y. Sunday M ercury. “A celebrated divine holds the devil responsible for “The Woman’s Bible.” -—Deu"'7'1er Post “It is likely that Elizabeth Cady Stanton’s new Bible will show clearly that Adam picked the apple himself and that he sometimes saw snakes.” —New Hampshire Mountaineer. The co—authors of this great work had one by one withdrawn as the undertaking was considered too radical to be con- nected with, by either their husbands, ministers or friends. Only Elizabeth Cady Stanton continued her Work, revis- ing chapter after chapter of the Bible, attempting to give women a place of equality in the church as well as in the state. Mrs. Stanton spent many years of her life pointing out the extent to which women were held in subjection by por- tions of the Bible, which in some cases were literally forged. For example, nothing in the original Hebrew Bible says that woman was made from a rib of man. Mrs. Stanton once answered a Bishop who quoted that chapter of Genesis by replying, “I decline to accept Hebrew mythology as a guide to twentieth century science.” Although she was born at Johnstown, New York, in 1815, ciple stage of her life. Her dauntless courage, sensational ad- mortalized especially in that section of Columbia County Where.her grandfather was one of the two original settlers, and where the Cady homestead in New Concord,township of Canaan, is today one of the show places of the county. A number of the villagers boast of fine scrap books which record her ex- periences as a Women’s Rights pioneer. ‘As a little girl she came to Canaan to visit her grandparents, and as the years passed she con- tinued to keep the friendly ties- of her youth. For twenty-five successive years Mrs. Stanton was on hand for the legislative sessions at Albany. Throughout her life she traveled up and down By HELEN WALTERMIRE the Hudson River‘Valley holding meet- ings, attending conventions, and arousing public opinion for her cause. Sometimes hecklers broke up such meetings. Police protection was often necesary to safe- guard the daring pioneers for Women’s Rights. Life was not simple for Mrs. Stanton and her followers, but successfully they kept the valley alive to the need for suffrage for women and the necessity for new laws to permit equal educational privileges, equal property rights, T and equal marriage and divorce privileges. Included in her crusades was the struggle for the abolition of slavery. - Eighty-two years old, Elizabeth Cady Stanton died in New York City, the outstanding woman of her generation in the opinion of Charles Beards. (“Amer- ica in Midpassage”). While Elizabeth was still a girl in the johnstown Academy, her brother, who had just graduated from Union College, died. Her father looked at her one day and remarked, “Elizabeth, if you were only a boy.” She told her father she wished to go to Union College. Judge Cady explained to her that there was not a college in the country which a woman might enter. This disappoint- ment, as well as her early marriage to Henry Brewster Stanton, an anti-slavery author, orator and journalist, did much to guide her in her decision to devote Elizabeth Cady Stanton andWomen9s Rights her life to the emancipation of women. While on her wedding trip in England she met Lucretia Mott, who signed with her, the first call to a convention to advance the cause of women. Elizabeth Cady Stanton first intro- duced a resolution proposing that women have the right to vote at the famous women’s rights convention in 1848. This caused such a storm of ridicule that her father, Judge Cady, came for his daughter thinking her mind was unbalanced. ‘ Mr. Stanton was an active abolitionist and with Mrs. Stanton worked persist- ently for the election of Mr. Lincoln. Opinion was sharply divided on the questions of slavery and seccession. Wendell Phillips wrote her in 1864, “You answered correctly. I would cut off both my hands before doing anything to aid Abraham Lincoln’s election Justice is more to me than Union.” Later Phillips refused to shake hands with Mrs. Stanton because she had ridi- culed his stand in their publication the “Revolution.” Of this she wrote, “Poor fellow! After "serving up every living man himself he cannot stand my satire in the ‘Revolution.’ Well, seeing that he feels it so, ‘I will give him some more.” ‘The Stantons moved to New York at tl11S.tlm€. ‘One day a mob of Secces- sionists surrounded their home. As one of their sons came in he was attacked by the men and carried down the street. He was able to save his own life only by inviting the whole crowd into a neighborhood saloon and suggesting that they drink to South Carolina. When the Civil War was over, the American women, led by Elizabeth Cady Stanton, again demanded sufferage, only to be silenced by the very men whom they had been aiding in their fight against slavery. The men gave as their excuse that, “This is the N egroe’s hour.” Horace Greeley was a lifelong opponent of women’s sufferage. As editor of the T ribuue he was able to influence the public pro- foundly at this time. In 1867, Mrs. Stanton had a petition in favor of Woman’s sufferage head- ed by Mrs. Horace Greeley pre- sented to the legislature. Mr. Greeley was so outraged that he notified Mrs. Stanton that she would only be mentioned in the Tribune when it was necessary Page 15 thereafter, and then referred to as “Mrs. Henry B. Stanton.” Men were constantly on the alert to find flaws in Mrs. Stanton’s speeches and writing. Rev. Collyer once wrote a letter accusing her of using one of his anecdotes. Her answer was short but pointed: “Dear Mr. Collyer, I have your com- munication about ‘literary righteous- ness’ criticizing me for using one of your anecdotes without giving you credit. But you forget that you belong to a class—-—white male citizens—who have robbed me of all my civil and political rights; so I feel it ill becomes you to call me to account for using one of your little anecdotes. I consider you and your fair sex fair game for literary pil- ferring. Moreover, it is man’s depart- ment in life to dig and delve for jewels, actual and ideal and to lay them at woman’s feet for her to use as she may see fit; and finally, you should rejoice that you have ever said anything that is worth quoting. Sincerely your guiltless purlioner,” E. Cady Stanton. That year when election time came the Republican wagon called for the males of the household. Elizabeth Cady Stan- ton climbed into the wagon and rode to the polls. Here she filled out a ballot and tried to talk the old Dutch inspec- tors into accepting it. The town was agape at her action. The following day the postman called and offered her five dollars for her ballot to be framed and hung in his house as a curiosity. Mrs. Stanton afterward admitted that she had thoroughly enjoyed the whole epi- sode. For many years Elizabeth Cady Stan- ton wroteand spoke in favor of women’s rights. After discussing the question of ‘marriage and divorce she would be showered with questions such as, “But what will become of home life when men change their wives every Christmas?” After addressing the Constitutional Convention, a small committee of .men asked her to discuss the points of her speech with them. All were serious and respectful except one, a small man with a crooked legs who tried to be witty at her expense. During a pause he asked in a mocking voice, “Don’t you think that the best thing a woman can do is to perform well her part in the role of wife and mother? My wife has pre- sented me with eight beautiful children; is this not a better lifework than that of exercising sufferage?” Mrs. Stanton viewed him slowly from head to foot. “I have met few men in my life worth repeating eight times,” she said. The members roared with laughter. They clapped him on the shoulder shouting, “There, sonny boy, you have read and Page 16 I1 spelled; you better go.” The scene was heralded throughout the state by the press. For three years the leaders of the suffrage movement adopted the “bloomer dress.” Wherever they traveled the town turned out to View them. Mr. Stanton courageously escorted Mrs. Stanton to the various balls and legislative gather- ings. On the streets the boys would follow them shrieking: “Heigh! Ho! the carrion crow, Mrs. Stanton’s all the go; Twenty tailors take the stitches Mrs. Stanton wears the breechesl ” Elizabeth Cady Stanton was the mother of seven children. These chil- dren she cared for wisely and well. Her home was one of the most delightful in the community. One day Susan B. Anthony wrote her again begging her to write and. speak for the cause. She replied, “Don’t press me too heavily or I shall take time off to have another babyf’ On her eightieth birthday six thousand THE LOAD ON HIS SHOULDER -r ’ CAN TAKE A LOAD OFF YOUR MIND! 23 N.

An onyx and silver ballot box was sent by the enfranchised women of Utah. A silver loving cup arrived from the New York City Sufferage League. Tributes, telegrams, letters and gifts poured in from admirers and organiza- tions all over the world. The story is told of King Tyre’s slave who first saw the sunrise. He looked to the west while the crowd looked to the east. The king gave as his reason for directing his slaves’ gaze to the west- ward, that one must always turn his back to the multitude if he would go forward. Elizabeth Cady Stanton reso- lutely did this all her life. No speech or article was ever written for popular approval but because it voiced her deep- est and most sincere convictions. She did not live to see the women of America given the right to vote but she had seen great progress made and to the end looked forward with much hope into the future. Always Ready FOR A PARTY ?

But no man deserves the title of Patriot simply because he cradles in his heart a sense of reverence for the symbols of national grandeur.
