SUFFRAGJTIS.

Thirty-one women Of London were
sent 10 Jail yesterday for fortnight in
default Of a fine Of SO each. which
they were all quite able TO pay, but
which they scOrnfully refused 10 pay
because it was levied by government
composed OF men. They announce that
they will go on hunger strike" IN jail,
which means that they will refuse to eat
oi drink ANYTHING and will thus confront
their cuStodiaus with the disagreeable
alternative Of administering nouriSh-
ment forcibly with stomach pumps or
mourning the odium Of having their
prisoners starve themselves TO faint
ness and perhaps 10 actual illness. On
the whole, that is not q pleasant sltua-
tiOn.
These ladies were arrested and sell

Mr.. Lloyd George. the Chancellor Of the

they called upon him at his place Of

shown poor taste or faulty Judgment on
Mr.. Georges part. and even regrettable
Inconsistency. seeing that he is an out
spoken and ardent champion OF the
cause which these women have at heart
and which they wished 10 advocate in
his presence. But it is really difficult
to see why. on that account, Edwin Of
Camberwen and Angelina OF Brixion
sbould have their sentimental CORE

shipping offices Of Cockspur street
should have their windows broken.
There is involved In the proceedings a
REGULARITY Of logic which is fer from

A FEDERATION OF PEACE.

Professor samuel T. Dutton. in The indie
pendent
Has not the time arrived for steps to be
taken toward federating all these forces,
such as the Japan Society. the American
Scandinavian Society. the Pan American
Society. the German American Society
and the China and Mexico societies. In
New York, looking to cooperation, econ
omy and efficiency The most practical
means Of accomplishing this seems to be
the establishment OF joint headquarters
for the Offices OF these organizations, and
in having "A governing or advisory board
10 devise plans FOR more united and con
ocrted action. Each society would, Of
course continue to be AUTONOMOUS, carry
ing on It's own special work, but through
some simple method or federation CO.
oberatton would be secured. Thus these
societies devoted to world peace would
.pitomiZe In some way the great aim for
u hich all such societies are working,
namely the fedora ton OF the world
The idea OF joint headquarters points at
cree 10 the need Of an international
building digritled and appropriate. which
" ouid become great centre III all these
undertakings. Such a building might be
dedicated as "A memorial 10 one hun
bred years OF pace between English

persons and events which deserve an en-

should be n large lecture hall, confer
.nce and comn4ittee room. The different
national groups would naturally have
suites of rooms furnished and decorated
ia tn. style of the nations represented.
Hospitality would properly be a feature
OF such "A centre. hence the need OF

Al present the societies, being scattered
and having no co-ordinating agency. they

the proposed plan all their combined ma
