When David Lloyd George, the Brit
ish Premier. in that year offered two
methods Of settling the vexed Irish
question, it was Redmond, who, as
spokesman for the nationalists, reject
ed the proposition for a partition of
Ireland, and instead, accepted Lloyd
Georges alternative plan for the con-
vocation of the Irish convention in
which Irishmen of nearly all parties
and creeds might meet in the effort
to compose and draft a constitution
that would afford justice to all.
Redmond was one of the delegates
to the convention which sat at various
times in Dublin, Belfast and Cork, in
1917 and 1918.
Born in 1851. son of w A Redmond,

Women of Russia have proved
their equality with men. in the opin-

Gently returned from Petrograd. Mrs.
Somerville is visiting relatives in
Richmond.
Women are serving as members of
the cabinet, they are holding respon-
sible positions in the government and
in industrial occupations. They are
seen as street car conductors, street
cleaners, munition makers, and in
practically every phase of industrial
life are taking the place of men. In
the rural districts the women are seen
blowing alongside their peasant hus-
bands.
AS fighters the Russian women
proved themselves successful, Mrs.
Somerville says. The Legion of
Death, as the women soldiers were
known, was stationed in an old palace
in Petrograd. and every morning
were seen going through the exer-
cises of the men soldiers. The women
fighters looked like young boys, and
surprised persons who were not ac-

No Question About Vote.
There was no question in Russia
when the revolution was established
as to whether or not women should be
given the vote. Equal franchise was
adopted without question, and women
were recognized in every way as hav-
ing equal rights with men. Special
respect was paid by the revolutionists
to the women who had worked for a
democratic government. When Marie
Spiradanawa, the grandmother of
the revolution" entered a Red Cross
meeting addressed by Raymond Rob
ins, the entire audience rose to it's
feet and cheered her.
The Russian women rev9lutionists
have never wavered in their loyalty,
according to Mrs. Somerville. They
have urged the Russian soldiers to
defend their country against the Ger
mans and make safe the revolution.
American women who were in Rus
sia after the revolution were also ac-
tive in war service, Mrs. Somerville
says. The American women sewed
every afternoon at the American hos
pital at Petrograd. and when
