VOTES FOR WOMEN

tes8 fsa q
London, Dec. 14.--Anti suffragists
have been aroused to action by the re-
cent violent demonstrations of the
suffragettes. An important deputation
Of the National Anti Womans Suffrage
society, under the leadership OF Lord
Curzon, OF. Kedleston, was received by
Premier Asquith at the ofFicial resi-
dence on Downing street this morning.
The object of the deputation was to
secure the prime ministers co-opera-
ton In blocking the threatened en-
REIMBURSEMENT of women by means OF
an amendment to the governments
forthcoming franchise bill which in
cludes the granting of votes to wom-
en-.
Asuuith expressed hearty sympathy
with the object OF the deputation and
agreed with them that to grant a
franchise to women would be- d politi-
cal mistake or very disastrous kind.

pairs; 60 their present condition

It is Senator Tillman's intention
when the naval appropriation bill

to have the senate fortified with in
formation as to the plant which it is
proposed to abandon, and if possible
to have the sentiment of the senate
aroused against such a move. The
friends of New Orleans, Pensacola
and New London are also aroused
and will assist in the movement to
prevent the movement of the Port
Royal yard.

brother saying, in his slangy way,
that you were a great booze fighter!
Oh, he was in earnest. Why, he said
that you had punished more of the

Cleveland. I am proud to know you,
will you ever pardon me for misjudg-
