Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, within the book we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.

Suffragist *Writer *Peace activist
She was born in 1878 in Eastport, Maine.
She was elected in 1913. She was elected to the Colorado State Senate for one four-year term in 1912, and took office in 1913. Among the progressive laws she passed were a minimum wage law for women and an abatement for property used for prostitution.
Both were efforts to reduce prostitution.
Women were not allowed to serve on juries at that time, though women received the vote in Colorado in 1893. All of Helen"s bills on this issue failed.
Consequently women could not serve on juries in the state until 1944. She died in 1923. Her body lay in state in the Capitol rotunda before her service.
She was buried at Fairmount Cemetery in Denver.
