Predicts Woman's Suffrage.
Atlanta, March 9—Congressman J. W. Bryan of the state of Washington, who was among Atlanta's distinguished visitors last week, expressed the opinion before leaving that the women of Georgia would be voting in state and city politics in the very near future.
Congressman Bryan said he had found that the suffrage movement was gaining strength enormously throughout all the southern states.
Mr. Bryan, himself a Bull Moose adherent, said that he believed the espousal of the suffrage cause by the Roosevelt party would in the near future force the two other parties to take it up.
