Title	Article from the Walla Wall Daily Journal titled "The Foolish Aspersions of Woman" from the E. Tannatt Scrapbook, 1885
Subject	Women suffrage--Washington (state)--Politics and government; Scrapbook
Author	Daily Journal, Walla Walla, WA
Description	In this piece written by the editor of the Daily Journal, a publication from Walla Walla, Washington, the extremist component of the temperance movement is discussed. The author derides outside activists within the movement for chiding the women of the town for their men's misgivings. He states, "Women have long enough borne the burden and heat of the day in assuming men's sins." The temperance movement often went hand-in-hand with the suffrage movement, a partnership which some scholars blame for the delay in women gaining access to the polls in the territory of Washington. Elizabeth Tannatt was very active in both movements.
