Newspaper: 12-1/2"x 18"; 4 pp.; printed on news stock; folded twice with tears along horizontal fold at center; two 1-1/2" or so edge tears at right margin (a little affecting text); about very good.

With "FAILURE IS IMPOSSIBLE — Susan B. Anthony" in bold, black 1/2" letters across head of first page. This issue records a bequest from Mary S. Anthony to the NWSA, prints a letter from Mrs. [Catharine] McCulloch; the formation of new suffrage clubs in Mississippi; notes regarding prominent women; a meeting of the Equality League of Self Supporting Women of New York City with Harriot Stanton Blatch presiding and Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Rabbi S.S. Wise and Rose Schneiderman among the speakers. The issue also notes that the Newtown club has 25 members and recently hosted Rev. Anna Howard Shaw as a speaker (p.2). [See scrapbook for clippings on the NAWSA announcement of its new publication Progress]. Progress, the official organ on the NAWSA, published its first issue in October, 1901 and ceased with its last issue in June, 1910; edited by Harriet Upton Taylor who during this period of time largely ran the day-to-day affairs of the NAWSA. It appears to have had a relatively small circulation; this is the first issue of PROGRESS we have seen.
