Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 39, Number 79, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 7 June 1907 — Latch Key Suffrage. [ARTICLE]
Latch Key Suffrage.
Over in England the possession of a latchkey has lately been held in the courts to have an important bearing on the electoral rights of a man claiming to be a householder. With us the latchkey has grow T n so universal as to be no indication of a man’s status, or a woman's either, for that matter. Not so very long ago the American woman’s right to the latchkey was subject for Jocular argument pro and con, but women’s latchkeys are now is common as men’s. For an institution that dates back only about seventy years tlje latchkey has stepped with some suddenness into its place of a universal necessity.—Boston Herald.
