In the United States the stoutest enemy of the movement acknowledges that woman suffrage is ultimately inevitable.
The voting strength of the world is about to be doubled, and the new element is absolutely an unknown quantity.

Women have ceased to exist as a subsidiary class in the community.

They are no longer wholly dependent, economically, intellectually, and spiritually, on a ruling class of men.
They look on life with the eyes of reasoning adults, where once they regarded it as trusting children.

Women now form a new social group, separate, and to a degree homogeneous.
