My dear Mrs.ﬁunde,

I often think of Arizona and my friends there, and wish
I could hear from you. I hope that at last ﬁrizona will win Statehood; and
then of course the euffrngiste will make another struggle for ”votes for won»
on". If California wins in October it will naturally give a great impetus
-to the cause in Arizona. You know that the National A.V.S.A. convention
meets in Louisville thin ﬂotober I9»25; at the invitation of the Kentuoky
Equal Rights-Aesooiation.; and in many reopeots it is to be a very important
convention. Serious changes in the constitution are submitted, most of which
,I;think are injurious to the National character of the Association, as you

will see by a marked *omen's Journal which I am mailing to you. But membere

ship. without individual dues, is one of the things I have advooated , and ins

augurated in Arizona. No ﬁouht that will oome up for full discussion. I read
with interest what you sent in your report to the National at the convention
in Washington City; but then it was Just in its experimentul stage in Ar»
izona. By this time you must have formed a definite opinion of its merits.
I am writing to ask if you will kindly formulate what you think of it, its
merits, ito deficiencies, where it can be improved. its results. oto.. so
that I can have your experience to refer to at the convention. “articularly.
,»I want you to say if you think it is possible to raise as much money by asks
ing contributions from those who join on the membership curds a: could be
raised by ones from the old method of membership dues. I do not meanas much
as if every card member paid dues. but allowing for the undoubtedly greater

number who will join on tho oard enrollment syatom than would join if they

 

 2.
were obligated to pay dues.

I hope you are coming to the conventiong as I know you sometimes indulge
yourself in a long trip, and I wish you might make it to Louisville at this
time. But if you do not come, or have some other delegate to represent
Arizona. I hope you will send in a report to encourage us by knowing what is
going on in your §EATE3 If California wine, which we will know by the time
of the convention. then Arizona will be a hopeful campaign tiyld, and you
might be planning how the National could help there again, though several
states already are aheddof Arizona in having campaigns on hand. At present,
the sense of the Official Board seems to be to turn all its attention to
dalifornia, as its vote is taken first. After the convention, though, other
campaigns will receive attention; and among them. I hope, Arizona, if Califor-
nia wins. If not, the states which have campaigns now must take precedence.
It is expected that Miss Gregg will be sent to Kansas to work till.§ovember
of I912, as they have urgently asked for her there, and it is her own state.

I know this will be a disappointment to you, as you and she did such efficient

work together.

“In Kentucky, we are just now rejoicing that the Democrats have put a Sphool

suffrage for Women plank in the state platform; and as this is normally a
Democratis state we are in hopes of getting this fragment of suffrage from the
legislature of I912. especially as the Republican candidate for governor is
also in favor.This is a small boon compared with full suffrage. but we will
be thankful if we get it.

PleaSe remember me to such of my suffrage friends as may still bear me
in mind." I trust that you and your family are all well.Let me have a letter

from you as soon as you find time to write. for I want information on the points;

I have written about.

I am

Very cordially your friend,

learn that you are thinking of attending tho National Suffrage Conveﬁégon
to he held in Louisville Cot.19~ 25 inoluaiVe.I am sorry that I cannot
comply with your request about being maae a oelogato, for oho aelegates
are elected, nnu not appointoﬂ, unﬁ there is no fractional represenﬁau
tion. I am confiﬁonﬁ, tnough, that I Can arrange to see that gou have
a gooﬁ seat, ounveniont for hearing and seeing all that is going on.
The time of the your has arrived for mo, as local treasurer of the
Fuyeote E.E.A. to collect donationo for the annual dues to the state
and national Associations. As tho state Association is entertaining
the National, costing about $400 outsiﬁe of what is raise& in Louisville.
I hope each local. in addition to its dues, will contribute something

to the entertainment fund.

The State Convention is on ho hold in Louisville tho any of the

last ExecutiVe Committee meeting of the ﬁationa1.~thatio, 0ot.25th.

no hapo, by choosing this day tonhave a larger attendance both at the
National anﬁ the state conventions from Kantuoky.

Dear 3:3.Cuntrill,

X waa glad to get your letter of Aug.27th, anﬂ to
iearn that you are thinking of attonaing the National Suffrage Conn
Vention to ho hold in Louisville Oct.I9~25 inclusive. I fear. iow«
over, that I cannot have you made a'oologato, as the delegates ate
elected. and not appointed. I am confident; though, that I can at»
rango to see that yon-have a pleasant seat at the convention. so that
you will have an Opportunity to hear all that is going on. There are
no fractional part8 of ﬁologations; unless you should value the right
to a voice without a tote. That is the privilogo of Lifeamembors of
the National, which is secured by the payment of $50 to the Rational
Treasurer; and I am not going to suggest at this timo that you ghould
mako that donation. for the season hag arrivod for me, a8 treasurer
of the Fayette é.R.A. to oolﬁoot the ﬂonations for the annual dues

to the stats and national associations. As the State AsSooiation ia

entertaining the national, I hope each local, in aadition to its dues,

will contribute somothing to tho funﬂ for those Hational Convention
expenses. The State oOnvention it to be held in Louistillo. the day
of the last Executive Committee meeting of the Nationa1,~that is,
Oot.25th. We hope by choosing that day to have a larger attendance
both at the nat101al and the State oonvontiona from Kontueky.

If you can make your usual annual donation, pleaso writo to ma

at Richmond.

My éear Mrs.Farmer,

I received your card telling me of your going to Duluth
»’fot the Summer. I hnﬂ no idea it uzuld he so long before I answered it; but
you know 7ho summer is my busy time. I came from Lexington quite early this

.,

time, eno nave Spent a great ooal of time in the farm.v nary has a very nice
'white tonant in tho family, anﬂ she keeps all the upporfloor, so that we havo
room for Rory, Green and myself, hno can make room for an occasional viswtor by
"ocuhling”up.

I have been greatly trouhloﬁ by the proPosoo revision of the constitution

I suppose you have been following the disouosions as they

apponrod in the Woman's Journal. If the revision carries. it seems to me the
work will be certain forms of business, such as carrying on the woman's Journal,

selling literature. etc.. with a staff of officers, all salaried, presumably;

an& the hart of the Association will be to act as patron to these enterprises.

l have no objection to the ontorprisesiin themselves; for there was no more

araent adecate for taking over the management of the Woman’s Journal than my»
aelf.' But I think they ought to be carried on by persons omployod by the Board,
and not by the officers themselves. Just as we put the business of the E.Jour-
21:11 in the hand?) of Miss Ryan, “he: no doubt aces 1’1: better than M188 Blackwoll
éould do; but Miss Ryan is nothing liko so capable as.Miss Elaokwell of serving
on the Board, and taking a hroodminded and national View of tho suffrage work.
Then I am also strongly opposed to giving ovary little looal aiuh of fifty
members the right of diroot membership with the National, though I recognize
that it 13 expedient not nooeoourily to limit our auxiliaries to one in each

state. In some statos there are such serious disagreements about leadership

 

 2.
and methods, particularly when the state is very active in anticipation of a

oamapign, that it is desirable to allow more than one auxiliary; but not every
fifty aiscontonted or factions members.

Just now to are rejoicing because the Eomooratio party adopted a School
Suffrage for Women plank in its state platform; and we hope it will carry, for
Judge O'Rear, Gundiﬁate for governor on the fopnhlioan ticket, is also for
it, and wanted it in the Republican platform. The Lexington Louder says it
was defeateﬁ thor by‘& small minority. It ﬁid ot sa', but I do not doubt it was
the whiskey inter.st.

Ye haﬁ a very severe drought ﬁuring July and a part of August; but in
last taree weeks we havo’huﬁ uhxzdant rains nnﬁ now the grass locks li'
It was very oclﬂ Lftor the L. ruins and a fire aculd have been agreeable;
I am glua the sun has now come out taro uni bright, unﬁ we are to have some
summer wonthor still.
Of course. I am Very muoh intoros;oﬁ and occupied in the arrangements
the Rational convention to be held in louiovillo. We have dooidod to have
state convention on the 25th of October. in Louisville. This is the day of
V‘last Exeﬁutive moeting of the Eaticnal; but we thought by taking this day
could get moro Kentuckians to attend the National and then stay over to the
State convention than in any other may.. We shall have only a one our oinvontion,
with all three sessions open for business. To ac not neoﬂ speakers, as all
'will have hoard the host at the ﬁntional convention. How 1 wish you coulﬁ come
