THERE is a steadily growing sentiment
favorable to granting TO women the right
10 equal nights with men. and while the
men who now represent the State Of
Delaware have expressed opposition 10
women having the right to vote, yet there
is no indication but what public senti-
ment in Delaware favorable 10 vote for
women is increasing. The expression
Of the newspapers in all parts Of Della
ware, generally are favorable to this Just
measure witness what the Sussex Re
public says editorially about it
Slowly. but surely, the States are
wheeling into line for Woman Suffrage.
Nearly every State grants to women who
own property the right 10 vote at school
and town elections. II woman is quaE-
fed and entitled 10 vote TO that extent
II is an admission that she is qualified in
all other respects.
Il Is hardly worth while to advance
any reasons. of which there are so many.
why women should vote, il is sufficient
TO say that in States where suffrage has
been extended. she has more than proved
worthy Of the trust reposed in her. and
the additional power entrusted to her.
and has used It to the betterment Of her
State.
The suffrage granted to women in other
States will never be taken from her. II
the women Of some States have the riQh,
70 vote, other States cannot long with.
hold the SAME privilege 10 the women OF
their States.
II is coming, and the cause Of woman
suffrage is gaining such an impetus that
its coming is not going to be long de-
layed in any State. Y0u might as well
tryt0 sweep the ocean back with broom.
In the meantime other Senator's and
Congressmen will continue to make an
amusing spectacle Of themselves in their
efforts to avoid committing themselves
on this important question.
Give the women the right 10 vote
Those who then desire to take advau-
tage Of the privilege can vote. and those
who do not want to, do not have TO. We
venture the prediction, however, that
some Of the women who now oppose.
would be the FIRST to vote.

TIE lecture delivered in Armory Hall
on THURSDAY nigh, Of last week by Dr.
Sears vas one Of the most appreciated Of
the series Of entertainments given by the
Milford hremen; and although the night
was stormy, nearly three hundred people

evening S entertainment. This was the
last Of the series Of entertainments ar
ranged by the Milford fremeu TO raise
funds for their equipment. Its a morti-
fying fact to admit, but nevertheless it
is a fact, that the people Of Milford evil

criterion. Out Of a population Of 1000.

the state of Ulster may be a month
hence, and this caution, continuing
over long period is having the in
evitable effect"
The Belfast provisional govern
ment'-the great rebel Carsonite
body-was expected to have been
started during this Whitsuntide
period, but it did not come into
being! The astuteness of the Ulster
Unionist council is given as the rea-
son but, of course, cynical folks
smile and whisper the word bluff.
We have still military and naval
movements occurring to remind us Of
the watchful government forces. The
Dorset regiment has been brought
from its distant camp to a place some
six miles from Belfast on the north.
But the removal was not effected
without a semi-apologetic explana-
ton from their commander, Count
Glecohen, that indeed nothing ter
rible was at all meant The poor
soldiers were being merely shifted
and the Ulster Volunteers had
nothing to fear, The warships are
about, too. One day they appeared
in Tralee bay in county Kerry; an
other evening they were overhauling
a fishing trawler and a private
yacht off the Antrim coast. They
found nothing, but there are rumors
all the time of rifles and ammuni-
ton being brought into the country
at various points.
And now Parliament has met again.
It's opening session yesterday was
quite unexciting. But before it
closes its sittings early in August
many exciting moves will have been
made in the game-moves full of
fate for the fortunes of Ulster and
Ireland. L. d. LAMB
