public meetings, but no fusion, no COM

in Sorosis. In fact there is nothing like
Sorosis, and nothing half SO good among
the women in Europe. One great adj
vantage which the women sufrragists in
England have over the American 10 that
their demands are 80 very much smaller,
They only ask for certain property rights
and the admission of certain personal and
property qualifications, while in America
they must ask all or nothing. Moreover,
their habits and instincts are strongly
against taking part in the conduct Of
affairs. If it were possible for Parlia-
ment itself to be open to all English-born
women tomorrow, belive ninety-nine
hundreds of them would Indignantly re-
pudiate it, and insist upon men acting as
their representatives. There are certain
privileges as voters, however, which peer
esses have always claimed, and an ex-
tension of these in directions which affect
their personal and pecuniary interests it
Is quite natural for women of means and
position to ask. This difference Of cir
cumstance accounts for the difference in
condition and qualification Of English and
American Women's Righters."
