Votes for Women.

There are many very sound reasons against granting the suffrage to women; but when we find opinion to be so sharply di vided amne British statesmen of both parties we cannot hug the belief that the suffrage is pover likely to be extended to women in England. And if women ara given the vote the way is pavad for adult suffrage, which would mean that the electorate of the country would be extended from less than 8,000,000 man'into ons of about 25,000,000 individuals, of whom women would be in a distinot majority, and thus the law-makers of the country would be persons who cannot join in enforcing them. Women onnot become soldiers, sailors or police- men, or take an active part in the maintenance of law and order. They are, as Lord Curzon bas expressed it, ruoapacited from discharging the ultimate obligs tions of citizenship. When we bear in mind that no precedent exists for giving women us a class an active share in the government of a great country or empire, we cannot lightly dismiss the argu- ment that it is not for Great Bri- tain, whose stake is the greatest.. and in whoso caso the results of failure would be so tremendou*, to make a change, which cannot be cancelled or withdrawn.

Our World-wide Naval Service

The phrase the "whole-world service of the British Empire" is preferred by Mr. Churchill to Imperial defence," but the de- Icision to: constitute the contrib uted ships from the Lominion into an empire fleet based at Gibraltar, enggests that the da». fence of the Mediteranean was not far from his line of reasoning when this decision was arrived at. It is intended that the fleet of colonial ships shall be able to go wherever required in the interests of the Empire; and Mr. Churchill pointed out that is was would be possibler for the squadron to reach Halifax from Gibralter in 5 days, Quebec in 6, Jamaica' în 9, the South American coast in 12, Cape Town in 13 Alexandria in 3. Sydney in 28, New Zealand in 32, Hongkong in 22, and Vancouver-in 23 days. Obviously these voyages are to be made at pretty high speed, and it would be interest- mg to know what fuel the ships would have at the end of their trip in order to do effective action. Whatever may be the difference of opinion regarding Dreadnoughts, all heartily wel- come the proposal to provide guas, refrigerated magazines, and am munition for a large proportion of our merchant ships, so that they will be in a position to resist attack by merchant cruise of an enemy.
