Description
Portion of an article entitled "Why am I a Suffragist" from Smith's Magazine, author and suffragist Anne O'Hagan argues that men have not represented the best interests of women in making the laws, but instead "discriminated against the class which had no legal voice."
The National American Woman Suffrage Association published a series of circulars written by well-known activists on the social, political, and economic reasons why women should be granted the right to vote. The circulars, along with novelties such as buttons, stationery, playing cards and other materials to advertise the suffrage movement, were included in a mail-order "Catalog of Suffrage Literature and Supplies" produced by the NAWSA Literature Committee.
