Women's Democratic Club (Salt Lake City, Utah)

The Utah Women's Democratic Club was organized under Ellen B. Ferguson in 1896. It was originally organized as an auxiliary to the Country Democratic Committee, but withdrew with its own charter in 1899. The major purpose of the organization is to support the Democratic Party. It also promotes legislation of special interest to women and involves them in the political process.
