Maryland suffragists dismiss the idea that women voters are a danger or a minority. They argue proportional voting matters, that bad women would be negligible, and note prostitution and church attendance patterns as context. The piece cites Denver’s 30,000 women voting, 130 by prostitutes, and Maryland penitentiary data showing 72 women among 1,032 inmates in 1910. Published by the Just Government League of Maryland.
