Gage, Matilda Joslyn

▪ American suffragist
née  Matilda Joslyn 
born March 25, 1826, Cicero, N.Y., U.S.
died March 18, 1898, Chicago, Ill.
 American women's rights advocate who helped to lead and publicize the suffrage (woman suffrage) movement in the United States.

      Matilda Joslyn received an advanced education from her father and completed her formal schooling at the Clinton Liberal Institute in Clinton, New York. In 1845 she married Henry H. Gage, with whom she settled in Fayetteville, New York. She attended the National Woman's Rights Convention in Syracuse, New York, in September 1852 and made her first public address. From its founding in 1869 she was a member of Elizabeth Cady Stanton (Stanton, Elizabeth Cady)'s National Woman Suffrage Association and a contributor to its newspaper, The Revolution (Revolution, The). In 1869 she helped found and became vice president and secretary of the New York State Woman Suffrage Association.

      Never entirely comfortable on the speaker's platform, Gage was an effective advocate with her pen. Her writings included the pamphlets Woman as Inventor (1870), Woman's Rights Catechism (1871), and The Dangers of the Hour (1890). In 1875 she was elected president of both the state and national suffrage organizations, but she relinquished the national post to Stanton in 1876, retaining the state presidency until 1879. With Stanton and Susan B. Anthony (Anthony, Susan B.) she drafted the "Declaration of Rights for Women” that was presented at the Fourth of July observance at the Philadelphia Centennial Exposition in 1876. (See Declaration of Rights for Women.) During 1878–81 she edited the monthly National Citizen and Ballot Box, published by the National Woman Suffrage Association. She was a coauthor with Stanton and Anthony of the first three volumes of the History of Woman Suffrage. In 1880 she lobbied the national conventions of the Republican, Democratic, and Greenback-Labor parties in an unsuccessful attempt to have them include woman suffrage in their platforms.

      In 1890, after several years of growing friction within the National Woman Suffrage Association, Gage broke away to found the Woman's National Liberal Union, of which she was thereafter president. That organization was more radical than the older suffrage groups, and it reflected in particular her belief that the established churches were a major bulwark of male supremacist teaching, a view she expanded on in her book Woman, Church, and State (1893).
