It was "Snobbery with Violence" by M C Beaton - the suffragettes were only mentioned briefly at the beginning, when the heroine gets into a bit of trouble for supporting them. They're by no means the main point of the story though, just really appear briefly to show that the heroine is a spirited gal with a mind of her own.
