Less than year ago someone pro-

work started, and so ably was the Job

successful operation for about a

100 horsepower, which is enough to

Inc question of woman suffrage n
now before the Danish house of com.
mons and is arousing widespread in.
terest. The reform is bound up with
tne projected general amendment Of
Fne Danish constitution. Two points
are involved: One, the manner of
election for the Landsthing upper
Aouse), and two. the lowering Of the
quah1ylng voting age for the lower
mouse, from 80 to rs years, together
WIN the extension Of this franchise
10 women. With regard to the Lands.
Fhlng, 1t Is proposed to abolish certain
privileges, such as the nomination OF
WE'VE members directly by the king.
ana to place the electoral power in the
hands OF the municipalities. Since
women have a place on these bodies,
they would also become automatically
included as voters for the upper house.
1t Is contended that the proposed
amendment is on the lines of the old
Danish constitution of 1S49, into
which the reactionary spirit of 1866
introduced baneful privileges. The
Liberals, Radicals and Socialists, who
are supporting the premier, show no
wish to exclude women, and the Con.
servatlves are also said to be in favor
of their inclusion.
one OF the most lucrative of agri-
cultural industries in Denmark is the
cultivation of beet sugar. Substantial
profits are reaped by the farmers, and
Tor many years shareholders in the
Danish sugar refinery companies have
received dividends of rs per cent and
more. The only drawback is that la.
Dor has to be imported from Galicia.
the Danish peasantry declining to
work in the beet fields, and as many
as $4,000 Galician men and women ar
rive in Denmark for the seed time and
remain until the harvest in October,
AS may be expected, the Galicians are
rude and uncultivated set of people.
They spend only fraction Of their
earnings for meals, and they have
now discovered how to save their re-
turn fare, being fully aware of the
fact that their presence in the coun-
try is not desired one single moment
after the termination of their con-
tract. On being paid they 1mmedi-
ately send all their wages home by
post, and being without a cent in
their pockets and absolutely without
any means OF subsistence, the au.
thoritles have consequently to pay
their return fare. Thousands of these
cunning Galicians have this year
played this game at the expense of
the Danish taxpayer, and the govern
ment has promised to consider what
steps should be taken. 1t is suggest
ed that the farmers should deduct
from the final payment the amount
necessary for the railway fare, but
against this is to be placed the fear
of the Galicians causing a riot should
they not receive their wages in full.
It is possible that special act may
have to be passed to deal with the
question.
