FEARS WOMEN
That. Lord Northc1iffe Says, Is Why
Suffrage Will Fail.

Chicago. Oct. 2.-Lord Northcliffe
English publisher and editor, tells why,
in his opinion, the women of his coun-
try will lose their fight for equal suf-
frage.
There are 100000 more women of
voting age than men in England, Scot
land and Ireland said Lord North
cliffe. IF they were given the same
franchise rights as the men they could
dominate the empire. No self-respect-
ing man is going to be dominated by
women. The men of England will not
tolerate rule by women.
''Ninetynine out of one hundred men
in England, 1 will venture to say, are
opposed to women suffrage for this
reason. Both political parties stand to-
gether in opposition to it.
The late Mayor Gaynor of New
York sized up the situation about as
we'll as anyone when he said, There
are not enough husbands in England
to go around. If these women had
homes and husbands they would not
be worrying about the vote
Lord Northcliffe drew attention to
the fact that Englishmen scatter
the colonies while the wo-
men remain at home, this creating the
great disparity in numbers.

possibly tell that you darkened your

WRONG. JANE adams SAYS.
Declares NOrthcliffe's Opinions Arc
Based on Mistaken Ideas.

Chica go. Oct. Miss Jane Adams,
returning from a trip through the east,
takes issue with Lord NOrthcliffe Lon
don publisher, who told Chicagoans
that woman suffrage is doomed in
England, because men will vote almost
solidly against it,
Il think that Lord Northcliffe is
mistaken when he says that 80 out Of
every 100 men in England are opposed
to woman suffrage" said Miss Adams
There is an old and very mista ken
idea that when women get the ballot
they will all vote one way and men
the other. That is wrong and has been
proven wrong. Women are Just as
broad minded as men and will split on
q candidate or public question as we'll
as they. I believe Lord Northcliffe
gets his theory from this mistaken
idea
