Count Won Werdenstein had invited
several reigning monarchs to attend
the trial night and suemes rivaled the
ancient Roman pageants In splendor.
Only few besides the royal specta-
tors were allowed on the plateau near
the acrodromone plant. The police
compelled the uniformed thousands
who lived In the neighborhood to
keep respectful distance.
Santos Duprel's heart beat high
when he and ROSETTA stepped into the
waiting machine. Rositta had decorat-

bravely In the morning sun.
ROSETTA was clever and studied the

ISOLATION which publishes a paper and be-
longs to the international Alliance.
This national body is hindered in its
action By division OF sentiment one
section refusing TO work for ANYTHING but
universal and equal suffrage while the
other asks for II ION the same terms as
granted to men believing this the wisest
policy.
They are not likely. however. 10 get
either. although just as able women are
connected with the movement as in coun-
tries that are nearer the goal They have
tremendous obstacles TO contend with
chief among them the German idea. en-
bodied in the Emperor. that women are
created solely Tor domestic purposes
This is even more inconsistent I'm Ger
many than elsewhere. as nearly 10000 900
women, about one-thrd Of the whole
number, are compelled to work outside
the home. This fact would be the strong
est element in securing the ballot for
them IL the working classes OF Germany
had as much political power as in other
countries, but an Anticipated electoral
system gives them but small representa-
ton in the Parliament.
This is especially true Of the Socialists,
who constitute an immense party and
in the main support the claims of the
women. The Liberals and Catholics are
not openly hostile, but the Conservatives
are unanimously opposed.
All the forces Of special privilege are
used against woman suffrage in Germany.
just as they are in the United States and
elsewhere They do not permit universal
suffrage for men where they can prevent
It. The women are persistent. neverthe-
less. and are making a little impression
on the adamant by petitions pamphlets
and large public meetings. Last fall they
actually marched in procession through
the streets of Munich and were well re-
ceived. In Saxony women who are large
land owners have a vote. In the Crane
Duchy of Oldenburg not long ago the
Diet gave a majority vote for granting
municipal suffrage TO women. BY a re-
cent decision women engaged IN business
may vote for the chambers Of commerce
and women who are insured may vote Tor
the administrative bodies OF state m
surance.
Forty pet,tions for the municipal fran
ch,sa were presented 10 the present SEES
