EARLY SUFFRAGE GAINS IN MINNESOTA

The effon to win the vote had taken 72 years. Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, who began the struggle at the first women's rights convention in 1848, had died long ago. So had Susan B. Anthony and Lucy Stone whose commitment to the cause and whose energy on behalf of the campaign put them in the front rank of suffrage leaders. Minnesota leaders of Chore early years had also passed on. Harriet Bishop, St. Paul's first school teacher. had been the first to have spoken on behalf of women's rights in her adopted community. Jane Grey Swisshelm, the crusading journalist who insisted that "a woman oueht to meddle in politics" had been invited in 1860 to address the

Legislature in 1867. Eight years iater the Legislature passed a school board suffrage amendment to the Minnesota Constitution which was approved by male voters in 1876 (24.340 to 19,468). In 1881 fourteen women organized a state suffrage asscciation. The organizers included Harriet E. Bishoo. Sarah Bureer Steams. and Julia Bullard Nelson of Red Wine. Steams served as the first ~resldent. and ~ e l & n . who had swnt fifteen wara teachme freedm& in Texas and Tennes5ee ierved as president from 1890 10'1 896. ~the;~residents in&ded [he well-known Minneapolis phy sician, Manha G. Ripley who succeeded Steams as the second president, and Maud Stockwell and Clara Ueland whose terms extended from 1900 to 1910 and from 1914 to 1919. Although suffragists of the period were scoffed at and ridiculed. these women atuacted others to the cause and &monsmtkd the capacity of women for leadership.

gaining suffrage by the state amendment route. Minnesota suffragists pinned their hopes on the US. Congress passing a federal amendment.

After a decade of legislative indifference and Congressional inaction, suffragists once more took their case to the Minnesotn Legislature, seeking amendment bills from 1909 to 1915 but thereafter working on behalf of legislation authorizing women to vote for presidential electors. Six successive sessions rejected suffrage. Finally in 1919 ihe opposition capitu&d, and Minnesota women won the right to vote in presidential elections. Over lhe years, the most loyal legislative supporters o f suffrage included: Senator Ole Sageng (first and foremost) of Dawson; S. A. Stockwell, W I. Nar- ton, Theadare Christianson, and I. A. A. Bumquist, all of Minneapolis (Christianson and Buroquist

"TO FINISH THE FIGHT' - THE LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS

Suffrage leaders knew, however, that this was not the end but the beginning. When Elizabeth Cady Stantan proposed in 1848 that women seek the elective franchise, she did so in the belief that suffrage would gain power far women. As they were, they had no say in the laws that governed them. Their status war contrary to democratic ideals, patently unfair and uniust.

The only defeat - due to a technicality - was the anemptio establish eight- hour day limit for women working outside the home.

Clara Ueland


I t was an auspicious beginning for a new argarlizntion with twin purposes: to educate voters and lo work for better gavernmenl. The League was an anomaly o f sans. being bolh nanpaniriln and polilical, but it resolved from the outre1 to adhere to [he conviction of Jumes Madison that "a people who mean lo be their own government must arm themselves wilh the power knowledge gives:' I t has been commonplace lo discredit suffrage because women did not vole as a block or vote in great numbers and because few women rereelected to public office. Women, like men, vote not jun by vinue of their gender but by the influences of their education, experience, class. and race. Al l human being differ in their outlooks. Women had to learn lo vole. and not every woman t w k up where suffrage lefl off. Some were caught up in the diversions of the new decade of the "roaring twenties." chnraclerized by a general decline of interest in politics. a rising tide of prosperity. and a new allilude toward sexual behavior In the 1920s women. like men, failed a, gu lu the polls because the issues were not compelling and the candidates were not inspiring. With time. all that has chilnged. Women now vote in greater numbers than do men. A small gcnder gap hss emerged, re- flecling a difference in the experiences of women and consequenlly in their issue priorities and candidate preferences. More and more women sre being elected lo public oflice and, i l lhe gains are slow, they are also sure.

ENDURING LEGACIES

The achievement of suffrage has left enduring legacies. It inspired Americm women to organize un behulf of their awn interests. I t expanded human rights. It pmmpted a commilment to advocacy and reform. It created the League of Women Voters. also celebrating 75 years of achievement as "a voice for citirenda force far change." This anniversary of the Nineleenlh Amendmenl provide women m d men with the oppanunity lo learn how long i t l w k and how hard women worked to win the vne. I t also serves to make women of laday aware that while they confront new issues in the continuing search for equalily, the opponunilies they now enjoy have been made possible by women o f earlier generations.

FUNDAMENTAL CHARTERS AND LAWS This section includes six fundamental chaners and laws which affect the state of Minnesota.

MINNESOTA UNDER FOUR NATIONS

The lmd m a a f Minnesota has been under the governments of four nations-Fnnce. Spain. England m d the United Slnes. The early territorial claims of France. Spain and England were vague and ovcrlapping. Formal government was nonexistent.


Formal dominionoverthis area was probably first cxprersed by the French when thc Sieurde Lussan. in a picturesqueceremony held al the Saul1 de Ste. Marie in 167l.clrimed forFnncethe vast northwest area of Nonh America.

However. British dominion over nanheustem Minnesota appears lo have provided the first written consriotion nominally in effect. The Quebec Act of 1774 made Minnesota r pan of the province of Quebec. England's claim to this are* was not exclusive as Virginia maintained a claim lo the same area under its colonial chaaer of 1609.

The ponion of Minnesota's land area east o f ths Mississippi River came under the jurisdiction o f the United States by the meaty of peace between England and the United States in 1783. Four years later, under the Ordinance o f 1787, the first genuine government was extended to this area, and the Minnesota country began its march to statehod.

THE NORTHWEST ORDINANCE OF 1787

One of the greatchaners in Minnesota history is the Northwest Ordinance passed by the Congress of the Confedentian an July 13. 1787. The Ordinance o f 1787 was made possible when seven1 states, including Masachusetts. New York. Virginia and Cunnecticut released their claims lo the land area west of the Appalachian Mountains extending lo the Mississippi River This area became known as the Nonhwest Territory.

The Ordinance of 1787 followed the fundamentals of Thomas Jefferson's Ordinance of 1784 and esrablishcd agovernmentover the Nnnhwesl Territory and gave impems to westwardexponsion. This outstanding governmental document gave first national recognition lo the Bil l of Rights, abolished primogenimre, provided for the cncauragement of education, prohibited slavery, and established the principle that new states should be admitted to the federal government an equal fuoting with the original states.

The ordinance provided for the fornation out of the Nonhwest Territory o f no, less lhan three nor more than five states. The states were to be admitted to the federal government on an equal fmting with the original states.

By May of 1848 five stvtes had been formed out of the Nonhwest Territory-Ohio. Indiana, Illinois. Michigan and Wisconsin.

Thc rvilte of Wisconsin was or&red out of the territory of Wisconsin. the lest rcmnant of the Nunhwest Territor): Although in 1848 the territory of Wisconsin extended to the Mississippi River, the state of Wisconsin voluntarily limited its western boundary lo the St. Croix River. This boundary limitxion by the slate of Wisconsin left the land area between the St. Croix and the Mississippi available for eventual inclusion in the slate of Minnesota.

The sate of Minnesota can trace much of its fundamental governmental principles. and a substanrial portion of its territory. back lo the Nonhwest Ordinance of 1787.

An Ordinance for the government of the territury of the United States nurthwest o f the river Ohio.

THE ENABLING ACT

Minnesota progressed under the territorial government, but many groups felt that progress would be accelerated if Minnesota were a state. Within a shun time there ilruae'a strong desire for statehood.

Henry M. Rice, delegate to Congress fmm the territory of Minnesota, at the opening of Congress in December. 1856, intmduced a bill for an act to authorize a state government for Minnesota.

The Rice bil l proposed that the nonh, south and east boundaries of Minnesota be continued, and that the west boundary be established as a line beginning at a point in the center of the main channel of the Red River o f the Nanh at the Canadian border and running south thmugh Lake Traverse. through Big Stone Lake. tothe Big Sioux Riverand to the northwest corner of lowa. I n placeof the Big Sioux River. Congress substituted a line from the outlet uf Big Stone Lake due south to the lowa border

Considerable contraversv had arisen in the lerritorv over orooosed boundaries for the state o f

In addition to establishing state boundaries. the enabline act pmvided far a constitutional convention and m election o f deleg&s to thnt convention. I t fu&r pkvided that the following propornls be submitted for the consideration of the constitutional convention: that seventy-two sections of land be reserved and set aside for a state university; that ten sections be granted to the state to complete and erect public buildings at the capitol: thnt all salt springs, not exceeding twelve, be granted lo the stae far its use; and that five per centum of new pmceeds from the sale by Congress o f public lands lying within the state of Minnesota be paid to the r tae for public road purposes.

The enabling act also authorized the state of Minnesota to haw one represenlative in Congress and such udditional representatives us the population of the state would entitle it tu at the current ratio of representation. For the purpose of determining the population. the act authorized ncensus to be taken by the United Stutes marshal. The census was completed in October o f 1857: population of the territory was 150.037.

THE CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION


betwecn the two parties was so intense thnt Republican delegsres and Democratic delegates refused to meet in the same convention. As a resull each pany held separate sessions in different rooms uf the first capilol building.

The political cleavage was so greal that the two bodics never acted in joint meeting during the entire constinxional convention-July I3 to Aug. 29. The final work was done through il conference committee composed of five canfcrees from each of the conventions. The conferees, by reporting to and receiving advice from their respective conventions, were able to dnft a constitution that would be acceptable to both bodies. On August 28. 1857. in spite of numerous protesls by delegates. the repon of the conference commitlee was adopted without amendment by both the Republican and Democmtic convendons.

APPROVAL BY CONGRESS

The procedure for acquiring statehood no1 only requires a constitution to be approved by the voters of the proposed state, the constilution must also be approved by Congress. In December of 1857 the Minnesota constitution was submitted to the United States Senate for ratification.

A cenified copy of the Demacralic constitution was transmitted lo the senate by the territorial secretarv-a Democrat. This c o w was allached to the bil l for the admission o f Minnesota into the

The committee system is a vital component of the legislative mechincry. The volutne of legislation pending beforea single session is toogreat to permit all legisliltaa to work closely with all proposals. Camminees hear testimony from proponents and opponents of legislation before they make recommendations to the full leeislature. A committee mnv decide the fate of anv lecislative oro~osnl. ARer study. hearing. resenrch>nd deliberation, a comm~tlee may amend. recam&nd p&g;. re-refer to another cornminee. or wble a bill.

The number of committees in each house and the number of members serving on each committee varies fmm session to session as swte concerns and problems dicwte. In addition to the standing committees which operate during esch session, some committees continue to study specific problems during the legislative interim to repon findings to h e next legislntive session.

Convenlnrthelerislatum: On the first dav ofa rceularsersion both houses ofthe lezislature convene at nmn. & lieut&ant eovemr. havine &adv t&enthe oathof office, calls the s&tetoorder and

The tempanry adjournment between the session of the firs1 year and the second year of the biennium is no1 a final adjournment, as the biennial session is considered to beanc conlinuous session. Far this reason the iournal paws of both houses are numbered consecutively lhruugh both years and bills are numberedconsecu&ly in order of introduction through both years.

Bills which have not become law or been defeated by legislative action or vetocd by the end of the t int half of the session are still avnilable far possible action in the second half of the session. This means standing committees may hear such bills in the interim recess and make recommendntions on their passage.

Passage a f laws: Al l revenue (tax measures) must originatc in the house. Al l othcr matters may originate in either the house or the senate. There is no stated time schedule: speed is often related directly to the legislative suppon a proposnl gathers.

ENACTMENT OF LEGISLATION A bill for an act is an idea for a new law or an idea to changeor abolish an existing law, Ideas follow ten steps on their way to becoming Minnesota laws:

1. The idea: Anyone can propose an i d w for a bil l - an individual, a consumer group, corporation, professional association, n governmental unit. the govemor - but must frequently ideas come from members of the legislature.

2. Thechiefauthor: Each bill must have alegislatarta introduce it.Thechiefauthor'snameappears on the bill with the bill's file number as identification while i t muves through the legislative process.

3. Other authon: The chief author of a bill, under legislative rules. may select other authon. but no more than a total o f five in the house and five in the senate. These authors' names also appear on the bill.

5. Intmduetion: When introduced in the house a bil l receives a house file number (H.F. 2312, for example): in the senate. a senate file number (S.F. 503. for example). These numben indicate the bill's chronological order of introduction in each body.

6. Committee consideration: Next the bil l has its first reading (the Minnesota constitution requires three resdings for all bills - on three separate days), and the presiding officer of the house or senate refen i t to an appropriate standing cammittee.

Al l committee meetings are open to the public. A committee may:

recommend Dassage of a bill in its aripinal form . - recommand passage after amendment by the committee. milke no recommendation, in which case a bil l may die when the session ends refer a bi l l to another committee (one requiring funds to the finance committee, for example).

After acting on a bill, the committee sends a repon to the house or senate, stating its actions and recommendations.

7. General orders: After adoption of the committee repon in the houv and senate, the bill has its wand reading and goes onto "general orders of the day". Acting as a committee of the whole legislators discuss bills on general arden. They may debate the issues, adopt amendments. present arguments on the bills, and they may vote to recommend:

that a bil l "do pass". that a bi l l not pass. postponement. funher committee action.

By cammittee recommendation, bills o f a nonconmversial natur; can by-pnrr general orden and go directly onto a "consent calendai', usually passing without debate.

Every bil l requiresumajorily voteofthe full membershipof the houseandsenate topass. Voice votes may be used in house and senate votes until the bil l is being voted on in final passage. That final vole and vote on any amendmene are roll call or recorded votes.

9. Conference committee: When the houw and the senate bath pars the same venion of a bill, that bi l l goes to the govemor for his appmval or disapproval. I f the house and senate do not agree, a conference committee, including mcmbcn ofbath houses, meetsto reach an agreement. Ifboth bodies then p a r the bill in campromis; form. i t goes lo the governor

.

10. The governor: When a bil l arrives, the govemor may:

sign it and the bill becomes law. veto i t (return i t with a "veto message" stating objections) to the body where i t originated


pocket veto the bill (after final adjournment of the legislature). e re rc ix the right to line veto ponions ofthe appropriations bills.

Ifthc governor doer not sign or veto a bill within three days after receiving it. while the legislature is in session. the bill becomes a law.
