Founder and Former President of the National Woman Suffrage Association
Position:
Con to the question "Should prostitution be legal?"
Reasoning:
"Women here, as everywhere must be able to live honestly and honorably without the aid of men, before it can be possible to save the masses of them from entering into polygamy or prostitution, legal or illegal."
