The Yakima Democrat -- Vol 5. No. 33 -- May 6, 1899.

Abstract

"A woman in order to vote at the approaching school election must be 21 years of age, according to some of the local legal luminaries. That a lady might vote, who had reached the age of 18 seems to be the general belief. It seems too bad to shut the sweet girls out, 'don't you know?'"
