It had its be- ginning early last century, when women s rights began to be talked of. As`.-Julia Ward Howe says, the `expression "became at once a syn- onym for al_l that is considered un- lovely and unfeminine. The advo-vi cates of the new -theory. iewin num-. ber, were looked upon as acting from eccentricity, and both -their personal- ity and their opinions came in for a large measure of ridicule. In 1848 a convention was held at Seneca Falls, N.Y., `for the consideration of the` civil and political rights of women,` and .a national suffrage association ,was" formed. Prejudice against the lidea of women voting was hard to kill, but among the early leaders were some exceptionally gifted wo- men, who were seconded by a few able men. ` r 4 As earlv as 1869, Wyoming grant- Jed_ full suffrage togwomen. There. are now four of the States `in which? ' women have the same political riorhtsi as men` and may vote atall elections upon the same terms; the other` three, besides VVyoming, are Color-- ado (since 1893); Idaho (1896);, and!

Anstralia. the full suffrage has been ; granted to women. who voted tori` the first time in the general election. `, in 1903. In Finland, every citizen of ` i the country, male or female, aged 24, i can vote, and is eligible for election. 111 I908, twenty-ve `women were elected members of the Diet.
