Women walk the streets of Chicago as they are now a firmer part of the political system within Teddy Roosevelt's Bull Moose Party. These Suffragettes have joined the Bull Moose Party, as part of its platform they will finally give women the vote. It did not happen for real until 1920 and the passage of the 19th Amendment. Some of the Suffragettes who are potentially in this photo are Jane Addams of Hull House, Helen J. Scott, Jane Addams, Alice Carpenter, Agnes L. Riddle, Mrs. Kellogg Fairbanks, and Ruth Hanna McCormick, but you will have to try to pick them out of this crowd yourself. Original paper caption. EX. 7x9".
