THE GREEK CABINET CRISIS.

that 1t will give rise to outside OF that country is
mild curiosity as to how long the Greeks will permit
governments TO rise, live a few weeks, or a few days,
and then collapse because Of a trife, while the polite.

SURFACES DEFEAT.

HERE is not much comfort for the opponents Of
woman suffrage in the fact that the matter was
voted down in all four eastern Estates where it was
submitted to the electorate this fall. In no one Of the
states was it defeated in a manner decisive enough to
discourage the proponents OF the movement, while Just
across the line In Pennsylvania the adverse majority
was so narrow as to encourage the belief upon the part
of the s~uffragists that it will win easily the next time
1t is submitted.
The history of the woman suffrage movement shows
that hitherto its greatest strength has developed in ag.
ricultural sections. The American states whore women
vote fall into that general class. and the same may be
said Of the European countries that have adopted the
equal suffrage principle. The attempt to put four dis.
tinetively industrial states in the suffrage column was
viewed with much interest by students Of economies
and applied politics irrespective Of the views they en-.
terrain on thessufrage question itself, and The fact that
in the state where the cause. made the best showing its
strength largely. came from the countries where the la.
Dor vote is strong while the agricultural counties voted
against it win. be studied carefully.
Almost every county in the hard and soft coal regions
Of Pennsylvania returned majorities in favor Of suffrage.
This fact, doubtless. will have an important bearing up.
on the suffrage campaign which will take place in this
state next year.
