First Woman Delegate Noted At Wichita Democratic Convention
A single woman delegate attended the Wichita Democratic convention, said to be the first woman from the state at such an event. The People's party and Anderson county Populists had previously sent women to various state conventions. Since 1888 Mrs. Anna Chamipe attended the Prohibition national convention in Indianapolis.
