    What’s next after the resolution about Wagon Day? It has come and gone, and then? Is New York going to celebrate its centennial in 2017? So many other states made a good showing on their Votes for Women centennials. Oregon, for starters. And Indiana this year. And California, Arizona, Kansas, and more. It would look stupid if New York put on a poor showing.
