Unless some of tho candidates spoke hastily, there were some women in the last cougro..s who were not honest politicians, as they did not stick to their promises. Mrs. Mantling is spoken of as having a well indicated preference. At all events, she has been quoted as saying: ! "1 hope tho coming congress will be a I dignified and successful one.
