Kansas City (MISSOURI) Star, February 7, 1904, p. 7. INDIANA'S WOMAN EDITOR She Is a Republican but Writes Editorials for a Democratic Newspaper Miss Elizabeth Williams, a bright young woman of Corydon, Indiana, is gaining distinction as an editorial writer on one of the county papers, and though she is an ardent Republican, her employment is on a Democratic paper, and her comments on public matters and policies are regarded by its constituency as having the "true Jacksonian ring" She was at first employed as bookkeeper in the office, was afterward made assistant local editor and finally began writing editorials that are strikingly original and forceful. Her list of presents from admiring friends in the back townships includes shrubbery, St. Bernard dogs, Indian relics and freaks of nature of various kinds. Occasionally Miss Williams writes a pleasing feature article for the city dailies, and altogether she is kept quite busy with her pen, she regularly attends the meetings of the editorial associations and is a prime favorite with the members. Her father, Mr. C. A. Williams, an old newspaper man, at present holds a responsible position in the census bureau at Washington.
