ballot in England.
True, the magistrate was good
enough to give us places in Jail
which were better than those to which
the ordinary drunkard of the dens of
Cheapside is sentenced. but the care
which we received was not such that
our lives in the confinement of the

fact that our vigorous prosecution of

Are there not in England among
the male population minds of far
lesser caliber than those Of the women
who believe they should vote? There
is no doubt of it. Yet we, who have
greater grasp of the political side OF
life In his majesty's domain, are de-
MED the privilege. Is our condition
not like that which you Americans
fought back in l776: taxation without
representation?
From reading the cable news from
America in the daily newspaper here
in London | learn that several states
of our former colonies have bestowed
upon their women the right to cast
ballots in rendering decisions as to
state and city officers. If the offspring
of England shall have so far prog
ressed as to recognize that the femi-

is 1t not time for the mother country
to cast from her back the black cloak
of unequal suffrage?
There is suffrage lesson in Amer
lea and well may England profit by 1t.
The thought that voting is unwom-
anly is as obsolete as the old stage
coach system. to my mind, and some
day the eyes of our country will be
opened to that fact. We women have
simply formed ourselves into band
of leaders and we hope soon to see our
way clear to the voting booth.
Our struggle commenced in humble
little mass meetings on the street.
The success of these resolved itself
into the desire to do greater things
and to-day you Americans who read
the newspapers are viewing fight
which is nearing the mountain top OF
victory.

is too often attached? To my mind
that would be the result.
l have said that l would deal i'm
partially in this article and so l am
giving the other hand of the ques-
tion. Men have opposed equal rights
because they say that the influence
which a woman of evil intentions
could throw into political fight would
disrupt organization. | answer: There
is now much evil in the manner in
which our male citizens are carrying
out their policies and it is certainty
that the purifying influences of woman
would be felt in national questions.
But woman has not the training
for political career" some of my
skeptical friends may declare. True,
has been accorded to the men, but just
now she is not looking for political
office for she is after her primary
right-the ballot. Then after that is
won the political training will natural
ly follow with the interest which the
woman must take in the affairs of the
country, which she will necessarily
help in deciding
do not suppose that enlightened
readers will want me to again go over
that thread-bare motto, which arises
to the uppermost part of the brain of
man whenever he is arguing against
equal-rights, viz. that ''womans place
is in her home"
or course woman's place is in her
home. So is a mans. but that does
not prevent either from participating
in the decision of who shall govern
the rights upon which that home is
! sbuilt. Think 1t over. Does 1t?

right here that votes for women" Is
in my mind a certainty within a de-
cade.
The idea has been driven home
among the men who are the ruling
powers of Great Britain and they can
not help but see the beauty of our
arguments. This opening of a vista
of light in the stubborn minds OF the
men who construct English law is to
the suffragettes a certain indication
that if the fight is carried on in the
next few years with the same vigorous
measures which have marked the
pursuit of votes by the feminine Brit
ish of the past few years, our cause
is won.
1t is an enlightened age. The wom-
an who spurns the thought of partici'
pating in the political activities of her
country has not yet reached plane,
according to my belief. where she can
possibly appreciate the benefits to be
derived from the little ballot. Why do

ply because they believe the political
side of country's life is the degraded
one. They connect politics and votes
with drinking, graft and other evils,
which, l may say, beset the safety of
political government today.
And let me ask the woman who
does not believe that she should vote:
Would not the introduction of the
feminine into government affairs serve
to cleanse them of the stigma which
