A Progressive Archbishop.

The Archbishop of Canterbury is
among long list Of distinguished
persons who have just signed a
petition to the English Parliament,
reading as follows:
"That your petitioners hold that
the recognition of the full rights of
women as capable citizens is essenti
al to the establishment of social
justice, and to the wise and efficient
government of the country. Where
fore your petitioners humbly pray
that your honorable House will pass
measure securing to women the
right Of voting for members of parl,a-
ment on the same terms on which
that right is or may be exercised 10y
men,"
The Archbishop of Canterbury is
the highest dignitarv of the church of
England. He is the primate Of all
England, has prominent place in
the House of Lords, and by immem-
orial usage he presides at the coron !
alton of the. kings and queens, and
places that crown on the head Of
the sovereign. Many conservative
Episcopal clergymen will shudder a,
the action Of the Archbishop in sign
ing a woman suffrage petition; bur
the late Phillips Brooks, whom
Americans look upon as an even
higher authority, used to sign the
woman suffrage petition every year

Insurance Commissioner Carr takes
a strong stand in opposition to the Bill
recently introduced by Representative
Norey Of Lewiston, repeating the arbl-
tration clause in the Maine standard
policy. The bill itself is attracting
wide attention. The clause in question
nrovides that in case of loss under the
nolicy and failure of the parties to
agree on the amount Of such loss the
company and the insured each name
three disinterested men. Each party
selects one of those named by tbs
Other. and the two thus selected choose
a third. or if they cannot agree inc
third is chosen by the insurance COM
missioner. These three referees deter
mine the loss Mr.. Morey's Dill woulo
remove this arbitration clause on the
ground that the insured is denied his
constitutional rights to have the case
settled by jury of his peers.
The objection seems to be based on
tho idea that the two referees hrst
chosen never agree on a third re1eree
and that he is always appointed py the
;,s,,rance commissioner in the interests
IF the company. Mr.. Carr states that
since the law went into effect IN 1879
over $500 losses have been settled under
the standard policy. and in all THESE
eases the third referee has been ap
nointed bv the commissioners only foul
times. and in one of these cases the
,oss was settled without his help. This
does not look like one-sided court OF
arhitration which Expresses the IN
c,,red Most losses are settled without
resource to the arbitration clause.
The Maine Standard policy is an ex.
OFT copy of the Massachusetts policy
and during the is years that it has been

.t,.t II has been in operation here, the

states have not had complaint from
