Women of Nation Gather in Washington Council and Suffrage Assembly
In Washington two major gatherings discussed women’s issues. The first triennial meeting of the Woman’s National Council hosted 85 organizations with services led by four women ministers. Frances Willard opened talks on Charities and Philanthropies, with sessions on public institutions dependent classes and women’s church roles. The second annual National American Woman Suffrage Association convention focused on Temperance with leaders like Susan B. Anthony and Carrie Chapman Catt. A Pittsburgh health group formed to curb public expectoration, and historical notes traced women in journalism back to the 18th century. A New York labor union backs suffrage for self supporting women. The British Temperance Association airs medical cautions on total abstinence.
