or in part.
Accepting this the association has, for the last eight months,
furnished 1,000 weekly papers with a suffrage column. The cost of
it consumes nearly the whole interest of the Eddy Fund, besides
much time and strength gratuitously given. But as these papers
come to us week by week containing the suffrage items and

interests of woman suffrage; we are encouraged by more general
discussions and more favorable votes of State Legislatures than
ever before--all indicating a sure and steady progress toward the
complete enfranchisement of women.

WHEREAS, The causes of the subsequent separation into the
National and the American Woman Suffrage Societies have since
been largely removed by the adoption of common principles and
methods, therefore,

_Resolved_, That Mrs. Lucy Stone be appointed a committee of one

desirable, that she be author
