It is the delight of the glass
eyed, corset-covered dudes of the
eastern papers, says the Wheat
land World, to write long articles
picturing a peculiar kind of women
in Wyoming, all because woman
suffrage is in vogue here. These
articles are becoming tiresome and
it is to be hoped that some day
the eastern dudelets will learn
that the women of Wyoming are
the same as are found in Illinois,
Ohio or New York, except that
probably they are above the aver
age of those states in intelligence
and education. Perhaps it w’ill
take a long time for eastern people
to discover it, but it is neverthe
less a fact, that there is less illiter
acy, less ignorance and less im
morality in the west than in most
of our eastern states.
