II is now absolutely certain that the
extremes resorted TO by certain OF the
militant suffragists have absolutely
killed all chances of the least conces-
sion being made to the clamor for
votes for women. The dynamite plots,
attempts at arson and brutal attacts
upon cabinet ministers have caused
complete repulsion OF feeling against
the women leaders
This was shown few days ago at
Norwich. where an attempt made by
prominent suffragists to hold an out
door demonstration resulted in gener-
al riot The leaders of the women were
pelted with stones and ancient eggs
and driven bodily out OF the city as
"disgraces to the name of woman.
