ably be made that even II they are not

rived. But there IL nothing In the objec-
tion that the country Is already burdened
with many ursolved problems" II women
are competent to vote. their votes are all
the more necessary because Of the ex-
istence Of such problems as q present and
q permanent condition Of the political or
ganlzation OF the State.
However the question may be decided at
this particular time, the controversy over It
which Is now waRing among women who
only lately have given serious thought TO
the subject, will be profitable for them and
for all society; and 1t will help to prepare
them for the political equality which is
likely to come as the ultimate consequence
OF discussion 30 unexsmpled. The mere
circumstance that at last women generally
have begun to talk about voting suggests
that the time is approaching when they

A Very Significant Discussion.

To-day the women organized In opposition
to woman suffrage will open headquarters
at the Waldorf Hotel. In the Fifth avenue,
where they will invite signatures to q pro-
test against the proposition so enthusi-
astically supported by other women estab-
lished at SHKRRYs.
Those opponents OF the measure enter
into the field Of contest after Its advocates
have already been at work for many weeks
to influence feminine sentiment in its favor;
but evidently they intend to make up for
the lost time by the expenditure OF the
greater energy during the remaining ten
days in which they can receive signatures
TO their protest. They will not intermit
their activity even on Sunday. On all days
OF the week. from now until May 8. their
headquarters will be kept open. Moreover.
1t is probable that they feel that they have
far less difficult task before them In ap-
pealing to the natural feminine indisposi-
tion 10 a change SO radical as woman suf-
frage would bring about. The other party
have to stem the current OF tradition; they,
themselves. need only to drift with it.
The precise ground on which the Waldorf
Hotel party protest against the measure
cannot. however. be called well taken. 1t
Is that the admission OF women to the fran
chise would be "an irrevocable step at a
time when the country Is already burdened

suffrage from women now. IL will be
decisive against the innovation al
ways. The time will never come when
there will not be unsolved problems
before the country. and they will be as
many and as important in the future as
they are to-day. The division OF the people
into political parties Is due to differences OF
opinion as to the true solution OF such
problems. and the popular disagreement on
such subjects will continue so long as the
reason OF man remains. AS soon as one set OF
problems has been disposed OF. or rather re-
moved from popular controversy, another
set not less serious and not less disputabls
Is sure to arise. Men can only make expert

At this time there are believed to be
twenty-three British sehooners engaged
in seal hunting somewhere between Cape
Flattery and Sltka. II may seem a hard
task for the Pheasant and Hyacinth to mo-
tify all these vessels. but they are following
along the herd OF seals which is now re-
turning to the Pribylov Islands. They are,
therefore, not far from the coast. and even

comply with the prohibition against cap
turing seals in the North Pacific, which
takes effect on that day.
Some OF the sealing schooners may return
to Victoria with such catches as they may
have made. since they will not be far from
port. Others may go over to Russian or
Japanese waters, where the same rules and
dates do not yet apply. But the practical

course our own patrol feet will make sure
that all the sealing schooners have been
properly warned. and are continuing to
obey the restrictions. The British Colum-
bia seaers some time ago expressed de-
sire that the notifying OF their vessels
might be done by British war ships, and
this Is probably one reason why the latter
are first in the field. But our own feet will
take care lest some Of them may elude OBJ
