An early prediction of the way our society will decline if women's suffrage is adopted.
"Women having once gotten the polls will have them to the end, and if we precipitate our American society down this abyss, and make a final wreck of our public virtue in it, that is the end of our new-born, more beneficent civilization. The race must now look for some other and second new world - where shall it be found - that can set on foot still another and better experiment. Our sun is set; is there any other sun to rise?"
