Well, I think Wyoming gave women the vote around that time, but it might have been a bit later, so at least in some places women were speaking out. My guess is that most would have griped about it among themselves, but not too many would have spoken out publicly, or if they did, would not have been taken seriously.

I gather that there were active suffrage movements in the west/ midwest at this time. And, there were also a lot of strong women who may well have spoken out.
