Court House Bonds
For Polk County Were
Carried by Woman Vote
Lincoln. Oct. 14.-(Special) The
women have made the building of
a new court house in Polk county
possible.
At a special election held in that
county on September 21, 1920. the
male vote was against the Issuance
cf bonds for a new court house, but
the women vote in favor of it was
sufficient to put the bond issue over.
Then, the bill paying men ap
pealed to the court, claiming that at
the time of the election the women
were not enfranchised under Ne
braska statutes. The case finally
reached the Nebraska supreme
court which held the women vote
was legal because at that time an
amendment to the federal constitu
tion had been officially proclaimed
in which suffrage had been ratified
by a three-fourths majority of states.
