Letter to the editor of the Argus, written by Mrs. W. Winslow Crannell, Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Women's Anti-Suffrage Association of the Third Judicial District of the State of New York. Crannell is responding to an article in which the author makes the asserts that the fact that a greater number of the women registered to vote in Utah in 1895 than the number of men who actually voted refutes the idea that women would not vote if given the opportunity.
Crannell argues that Utah cannot be compared to Eastern states because of the different values that exist, particularly in the Mormon religion. She also provides statistics from states including Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Chicago, that support the notion that women do not vote.
The letter was reprinted by the Women's Anti-Suffrage Association of the Third Judicial District of the State of New York.

In 1870, Lucy Stone and her husband, Henry Browne Blackwell, founded The Woman’s Journal, a weekly newspaper. Their daughter, Alice Stone Blackwell began work as an editor in 1883 and became the sole editor until 1917. At its founding, the Woman's Journal absorbed the Woman’s Advocate. In 1910 it absorbed the National American Woman Suffrage Association's (NAWSA) publication, Progress. In 1917, Woman's Journal sold the newspaper to Carrie Chapman Catt's Leslie Woman Suffrage Commission, which merged it with the Woman Voter, and National Suffrage News to form The Woman Citizen. From 1917-1920, the Woman Citizen was the official organ of NAWSA and was published weekly, biweekly, and finally monthly until December 1927, when it was once again named The Woman’s Journal. It ceased publication in June 1931.
