Militaney on the Wane.

At the present moment and this IS the
new era into which the suffrage move
men seems 10 be passing, 'militancy'
appears 10 be on the Wane The reaction
which always follows a period OF violence
seems 10 have set In The splendid
demonstration Of the "constitutionalists'
their many thousands marching through
q whole month from all parts OF the
kingdom and holding outdoor meetings In
every village and city-has awakened
the sober sense OF the people and made
them realize the tremendous orderly. law
abiding force which forms the basis OF
this great movement for justice and
equality OF rights. Many OF the audiences
numbered from 1900 10 1000 and their
good will was shown by contributions OF
about $4,000 toward the expenses OF the
pilgrimage"
The "militants." for the present at
least, have evidently fulfilled their mis-
sion. They give as the reasons for not
stopping their tactics that II they did 70
the people and the government would
drop back into their old Indifference and
inertia, and that, although II is now too
late for the House OF Commons 10 adopt
bill which could be passed over the two
probable vetoes of the House Of Lords,
1t might be possible 10 obtain one which
that body would accept.
The latter suppositon seems too un-
reasonable for consideration. The Lords
would rot be likely TO accept any wom-
ems franchise bill coming from Liberal
government, but II they did Il would
have TO be one OF a much more limited
character than the Liberals could afford
10 propose Besides. Premier Asquith has
made 1t perfectly clear that the present
government: does not intend to pass any
bill whatever giving vote 10 women.
Would Bar Pankhurst Lectures.
As to the other excuse for continuing
"militancy," the suffrage movement has
become too strong and is supported by
too many thousand women for II 10 be
longer necessary 10 keep public senti-
ment alive by burning hogses and de-
stroying the mail intrusted 10 the care
Of the government
In conclusion II is impossible TO refrain
from saying that since militancy has APP
parently reached its last stages In Great
Britain, II would be extremely foolish 10
attempt 10 introduce 1t in the United
States through lecture tour OF its chief
exponent. That the militant campaign is
10 be carried on under the present popular
title of white Slavery" makes II none
the less TO be condemned. II Mrs. Pank-
hurst really feels that she has mission

which already is doing more than any
other 10 exterminate the evil she pro-
poses TO discuss, let her come simply for
her expenses. She has carried away
many thousands of dollars as the result
of her two preceding visits. and II this
privilege were TO be denied her she WOULD
very quickly abandon 1t. Under what
ever guise she may come she represents
militant suffragism" in It's most extreme
form. In the present critical situation OF
the movement, in the United States moth

MOTHERS MEETINGS DURING

The mothers meetings in the
Houehton public school kindergarten

these meetings 2,l5j.
According To Supt. Doelle this show
ing l. the best ever made by the par-
cnts' meetings and he speaks of ii as
most gratifying
The mothers meetings are held at
infrequent intervals. about four per
Year at each Of the schools They
are arranged for the purpose OF bring
ing the mothers into contact with the
work Of their very young children, in
the kndergarten and the primary
grades. At the meetings the mothers
are invited TO take part In the actual
class work. the instructive games and
exercises arranged for the children.
The result is that parents grow into
sympathy with the work of the schools
ana supplement this work AZ home
II will be observed that the report
Of parents meetings, as distinguished

The result is that West Houghton par

the work Of their children in the
