GLADSTONE ON SUFFRAGE
An Expression Of His Views ON the Ous..
tion by the Son of Engiand's Foreuo.,
Statesman.


Mr.. Gladstone was much blamed Nv
English advocates of woman suflrars
for refusing TO include women in hi,
franchise bill by which suffrage wm
extended to the agricultural laborers
and other persons previously excluded
from it. Mr.. Gladstone acknowledge
that the women had exercised munci.
pal suffrage without detriment and
with great advantage" He ntimated
that when the question Of Parliament
airy suffrage for women came up as an
independent measure, he would sun.
port it; but he was unwilling to assoc.
ate the women with the agricultural
laborers in his bill at the time, for fear
of defeating the bill. He wanted the
rights Of the agricultural laborers to 10
secured first The women felt that
this resembled the Hindoo-custom by
| which all the men Of the family have
their dinner first, and the women then
make their meal of the leavings. They
represented, also. that there had been
a much greater demand forsuilrage on
the part of the women than on the part
OF the agricultural laborers. and they
| felt il hard that their claims should be
postponed to those of body OF men
who had scarcely shown enough inter.
est in their own enfran chisement to
get up single petition, or hold single
public meeting. However. there was
no help for il. Mr.. Herbert Gladstone,
the son of the ex-premier. has just
written letter declaring his belief in
woman Suffrage, and giving his rea.
sons, as follows:
"My experience, such as II is, every
year leads me to believe more and
more strongly that the social and com
mercial position of women is not what
it should be; and that, consciously Of
unconsciously. men do not give then
fair play, speaking generally, whert
there is or where they suspect dan
ger Of competition.
"The evil in London is very great
and ! don't think it is getting less
Their wages are starvation; the result
is obvious and disastrous.
Further, ! don't think women get
full justice from the law Sometimes
the law is to blame, but more often the
administration of it.
"Now, things won't DO remedied
without great pressure of some kind,
and fail TO see how this pressure can
be got except by giving the vote to
women. When they have the franchise
they will not only have n powerful
lever for their own interests. but the
possession Of it will inevitably lead
them to combine. Then they will get
full justice from us. ! am only giving
in very general and somewhat vague
manner my feelings and views on this
very great question.
you will observe that | only con-
sent for myself to extend the suffrage
to spinsters and widows. ! know the
position is illogical and full of incon-
sistencics, but ! can't help this. No

PARKERsBuRG, W. va, May zS.-ln-
formation has reached here of the hor-
rible torture of a boy named Jesse G..
Henderson, on Thursday last, by luna
,ic. Henderson was working in u field
some distance from home near Long
reach, when a fendish looking man came
up, caught the boy and bound him TO "A
tree. With needle the lunatic pierced
the boys flesh repeatedly. When the boy
made an outcry he would strike him in
the face. The madman then took a large
knife aud scored the lads hands in sew
cral places. The boy was thus tortured
for an hour, when some men appeared
and the lunatic ran away. He was cap
tured on Friday.
