History of Woman Suffrage Volume IV By Elizabeth Cady Stanton History of Woman Suffrage Volume IV CHAPTER XXXIII RHODE ISLAND Senator Anthony in North American Review—Convention in Providence—Work of State Association—Report of Elizabeth B. Chace—Miss Ida Lewis—Letter of Frederick A. Hinckley—Last Words from Senator Anthony. Rhode Island, though one of the smallest, is, in proportion to the number of its inhabitants, one of the wealthiest states in the Union. In political organization Rhode Island, in colonial times, contrasted favorably with the other colonies, nearly all of which required a larger property qualification, and some a religious test for the suffrage. The home of Roger Williams knew nothing of such narrowness, but was an asylum for those who suffered persecution elsewhere. Nevertheless this is now, in many respects, the most conservative of all the States. In the November number of the North American Review for , Senator Anthony, in an article on the restricted suffrage in Rhode Island, stoutly maintains that suffrage is not a natural right, and that in adhering to her property qualification for foreigners his State has wisely protected the best interests of the people. In his whole argument on the question, he ignores the idea of women being a part of the people, and ranks together qualifications of sex, age, and residence. He quite unfairly attributes much of Rhode Island's prosperity—the result of many causes—to her restricted suffrage. His position in this article, written so late in life, is the more remarkable as he had always spoken and voted in his place in the United States Senate (where he had served nearly thirty years) strongly in favor of woman's enfranchisement. And the Providence Journal, which he owned and controlled, was invariably respectful and complimentary towards the movement. While such a man as Senator Anthony, one of the political leaders in his State, regarded suffrage as a privilege which society may concede or withhold at pleasure, we need not wonder that340 so little has been accomplished there in the way of legislative enactments and supreme-court decisions. Nevertheless that State has shared in the general agitation and can boast many noble men and women who have taken part in the discussion of this subject. The first woman suffrage association was formed in Rhode Island in December, . In describing the initiative steps, Elizabeth B. Chace in a letter to a friend, says: In October , while in Boston attending the convention that formed the New England society, Paulina Wright Davis171 conceived the idea that the time had come to organize the friends of suffrage in Rhode Island. After consultation with a few of the most prominent friends of the cause, a call was issued for a convention, to be held in Roger Williams Hall, Providence, December th, signed by many leading names. No sooner did the call appear than, as usual, some clergyman publicly declared himself in opposition. The Rev. Mark Trafton, a Methodist minister, gave a lecture in his vestry on "The Coming Woman," who was to be a good housekeeper, dress simply, and not to vote. This was published in the Providence Journal, and called out a gracefull vindication of woman's modern demands from the pen of Mrs. Sarah Helen Whitman, the poet, and Miss Norah Perry, a popular writer of both prose and verse. The convention was all that its most ardent friends could have desired, and resulted in forming an association. The audience numbered over a thousand, at the different sessions, and among the speakers were some of the ablest men in the State. Though the friends were comparatively few in the early days, yet there was no lack of enthusiasm and self-sacrifice. Weekly meetings were held, tracts and petitions circulated; conventions173 and legislative hearings were as regular as the changing seasons, now in Providence, and now in Newport, following the migratory government. Mrs. Davis was president of the association for several successive years in which her labors were indefatigable. Finally failing341 health compelled her to resign her position as president of the association. Since then her able coadjutor Elizabeth B. Chace, has been president of the Rhode Island Suffrage Association, and with equal faithfulness and persistence, carried on the work. She steadily keeps up the annual conventions and makes her appeals to the legislature. Among the names175 of those who have appeared from year to year before the Rhode Island legislature we find many able men and women from other States as well as many of their own distinguished citizens. In this State an effort was made early to get women on the board of managers for schools, prisons and charitable institutions. In a letter to Mrs. Davis, John Stuart Mill says: I am very glad to hear of the step in advance made by Rhode Island in creating a board of women for some very important administrative purpose. Your proposal that women should be empanneled on every jury where women are to be tried seems to me very good, and calculated to place the injustice to which women are subjected at present by the entire legal system in a very striking light. In an effort was made to place women on the Providence School Board, with what success the following extracts from the daily papers show. The Providence Press of April , , says: A shabby trick was perpetrated by the friends of John W. Angell, which was certainly anything but "angelic," and which ought to consign the parties who committed it to political infamy. Yesterday, for the first time in the history of this city, women were candidates for political honors—in the fifth ward, Mrs. Sarah E. H. Doyle, and in the fourth ward, Mrs. Rhoda A. F. Peckham, were candidates for positions on the school committee; both, however, failed of an election. Mrs. Doyle received the unanimous nomination of the large primary meeting of the National Union Republican party, and Mrs. Peckham was run as an outside candidate against the regular nominee. These ladies would undoubtedly have made excellent members of the committee, and unlike a great portion of that body, would have been found in their places at the meetings, and we should have been glad to have seen the experiment tried of women in the position for which their names were presented. When the polls opened in the fifth ward, instead of Mrs. Doyle's name being on the ballots for the place to which she had been nominated there appeared the name of John W. Angell, esq., and until about o'clock a. m. he had the field to himself. At that hour, however, Mrs. Doyle's friends appeared with the "regular" nomination, and from that time to the close of the polls she received votes; Mr. Angell, notwithstanding his several hours' start in the race, only winning by a majority of . From this fact it is clear that had Mrs. Doyle's name been in its proper place at the opening of the polls she would have beaten her opponent handsomely. Mrs. Peckham's opponent obtained but majority in a poll of . It is evident from the vote yesterday, that if they have but a fair show, women will at the next election be successful as candidates for the school committee. Had the intelligent ladies of the fifth ward been allowed to vote, Mrs. Doyle would have led even the gubernatorial vote of that ward. The Providence Journal makes the following comment: We are sorry to observe that the two estimable and admirably qualified ladies whose names were presented for school committee in this city, failed of success. Their influence in official connection with the schools could not have been other than salutary. The treatment accorded Mrs. Doyle in the fifth ward was wofully shabby. Without her solicitation, the Republican caucus unanimously nominated her for a member of the school committee. Being a novice in political proceedings, she naturally enough supposed that the party that desired her services so much as to place her in nomination, would make provision for electing their candidate. There was not gallantry enough in the ward, however, for that duty, and it was not until o'clock on election day that any tickets bearing the name of Mrs. Doyle were to be found in the ward-room; but a ticket with the names of two men was on hand at sunrise, and the time lost in procuring tickets for the regular nominee proved fatal to her success. Mrs. Doyle has now learned something of the ways of politicians, and is not likely to put her trust again in the faithfulness of ward committees. At a meeting of the State association, held in Providence, on Thursday, May , , the following preamble and resolutions were, after a full and earnest discussion, unanimously adopted: Whereas, It is claimed, in opposition to the demand that the elective franchise shall be given to women, that they are represented in the government by men, so that they do not need the ballot for their protection, inasmuch as all their rights are secured to them by the interest of these men in their welfare; and, whereas, in February last, in view of the appalling facts frequently coming to our notice, consequent upon the mismanagement of poor-houses and asylums for the insane, this association did earnestly petition our State legislature to enact a law providing for the appointment of women in all the towns in our State to act as joint commissioners with men in the care and control of these institutions; and, whereas, in utter disregard of our request, the Committee on State Charities, to whom it was referred, in reporting back our petition to the House of Representatives, did recommend that the petitioners be given leave to withdraw, and the House, without (so far as we could learn) one word of protest from any member thereof, did so dispose of our petition; therefore, Resolved, That this association do most solemnly declare, that so far from being represented in our legislature, the rights of the women of this State were in this instance trampled under foot therein, and the best interests of humanity, in the persons343 of the poorest and most unfortunate classes, were not sufficiently regarded, under this system of class legislation.

Bonham Philanthropy is an important facet in communities around the world. It is a practice that provides many important services that may not exist if it were not for the generosity of others who donate their time and money. This paper will be focusing exclusively on monetary forms of philanthropy. Philanthropy exists in many different forms and is motivated in many different ways. It comes from the wealthiest of individuals to the most financially challenged of people. This paper explores what philanthropy is, the different types of philanthropy, and motivations for philanthropy. It will cover information about some of the most famous of givers. It then will make a local connection by talking about the Philanthropists for Eau Claire, their lives, and the benefits received by their donations. 3 Introduction The City of Eau Claire is filled with buildings and places dedicated to individuals.

    We Interviewed Prominent Rhode Islanders Who Now Slumber Beneath Our Soil

    They’re Everywhere: We interviewed prominent Rhode Islanders who now slumber beneath our soil As the veil between the worlds thins this Halloween night, this time-travelling Irishman stepped into the land beyond the horizon to learn more about Rhode Island’s illustrious departed. Julia Ward Howe, abolitionist, suffragist and poet; May 27, 1819 – October 17, 1910 Julia Ward Howe was an early and commanding voice of the suffrage movement. Her mother was a skilled wordsmith, a powerful skill for any young woman in the early 19th century, and inspired Howe to pick up the pen and eventually write the “Battle Hymn of the Republic.” After the Civil War and the success of the abolitionist movement, Howe focused her passions on pacifism and women’s suffrage. She helped to establish the New England Women’s Club and the New England Woman Suffrage Association, later becoming president of the New England Women’s Club. She also went on to found the Association of American Women, as well as an extensive slew of foundations advocating for women’s education. In 1908, Howe was the first woman elected to the American Academy of Arts and Letters. She died at her home, Oak Glen, in Portsmouth in 1910. Vahram Papazyan, Armenian athlete; September 2, 1892 – March 6, 1986 In the summer of 1912, Vahram Papazyan was one of two Armenian athletes to represent the Ottoman Empire in the domain’s first appearance at the Olympic Games. A reputedly fine athlete, Papazyan participated in the men’s 800 meters and 1500 meters, and although he did not win any medals, became a cultural hero.

Now, many of those movements and ideas we can trace to our own founding, our founding documents: the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. And we can then follow those ideas as they move toward Seneca Falls, where 150 years ago, women struggled to articulate what their rights should be. From women’s struggle to gain the right to vote to gaining the access that we needed in the halls of academia, to pursuing the jobs and business opportunities we were qualified for, to competing on the field of sports, we have seen many breathtaking changes. Whether we know the names of the women who have done these acts because they stand in history, or we see them in the television or the newspaper coverage, we know that for everyone whose name we know there are countless women who are engaged every day in the ordinary, but remarkable, acts of citizenship.” —- Hillary Rodham Clinton, March 15, 1999 Women’s History is Everywhere: 10 Ideas for Celebrating In Communities A How-To Community Handbook prepared by the President’s Commission on the Celebration of Women in American History Commission Co-Chairs: Ann Lewis and Beth Newburger Commission Members: Dr. Johnnetta B.

    Introduction

    Cambridge University Press 0521832810 - Gender and the Poetics of Reception in Poe’s Circle Eliza Richards Excerpt More information Introduction poe’s circle In 1845, at the height of his career, Edgar Allan Poe asked popular “poetess” Frances Sargent Osgood to write a poem “equal to my reputation” that he could present at the Boston Lyceum (EAP 286). The request presumes Osgood’s ability to emulate his work so closely that her poem could pass as his own. The mimic powers of poetesses intrigued Poe, and he was not above imitating them. That Elizabeth Barrett’s “Lady Geraldine’s Courtship” was a rhythmic prototype for “The Raven” is commonly known, but there are many other unacknowledged occasions when women’s poems inform his work. Soliciting his attention, poetesses also imitated Poe, writing tributes in the style of “Israfel” and “The Raven.” While this fluid exchange of copies renders the project of identifying an original questionable at best, critics have persistently credited Poe with the powers of innovation and the force of genius, even in recent studies that place him within the context of antebellum mass and print culture. The “poetess” tradition, on the other hand, has long been associated with the generic repetition of feminine forms that silence women’s attempts to speak as anyone in particular. This study of a male genius figure who impersonates women poets, and women poets who personify mimesis, offers a way to understand the collusion of genius and mimicry in the nineteenth-century lyric and its legacies. I aim to show that seemingly opposed poetic modes are inseparable aspects of a process of cultural transmission; that men’s and women’s literary traditions are overlapping and interdependent, though not identical; that the gendering of poetic practices is far more fluid and complex than has been previously portrayed; and that the poetics of creation are inseparable from the poetics of reception.

She was in Philadelphia during all the contest about the admission of women to hospitals and mixed classes, maintained her dignity and self-respect in the midst of most aggravating persecutions, and was graduated with high honors in from the Woman's Medical College of Pennsylvania, of which Ann Preston, M.

After graduation Laura Ross spent two years in study abroad, and, returning, commenced practice in Milwaukee, where she has been ever since. By an act of Congress approved May , , Wisconsin was admitted to the Union. Its diversity of soil and timber, the healthfulness of its climate and the purity of its waters, attracted people from the New England and Middle States, who brought with them fixed notions as to moral conduct and political action, and no little repugnance to many of the features of the old common law.
