Miss Cornelia McKinne talked beforethe Kbell club of Oakland last Tuesdayand told why women should have thevote, and her opponent In opinion wasMiss Bronson, who decried the advant-age of the ballot for women. The suf-frage question is the. topic of greatestInterest just now and there is no doubtabout the sympathy of society womenon the subject. There will be suffrageclubs without number in a few monthsand already those that have begun areprogressing gloriously. There were twolectures last week that were arrangedby '25 . society women and these talkswere given in the colonial ballroom atthe St. Francis with hundreds of guestson each occasion. The speaker wasProf. B. B. Baumgardt, who provedconclusively that the ' influence :' ofwomen in politics was one to be soughtand commended. He gave illuminatingexamples of reforms successfully "in-stituted in Sweden. '.Norway and Switz-erland with the assistance of women."He cited the brilliant example of EllenKey, world famous, and working forthe advancement of women in Sweden.He gave statistics that were a creditto'the women these foreign nations,who have interested themselves In mu-nicipal affairs. The -first, lecture wasentitled, ; "The jTrend of Modern *Euro-pean Thought .in '-: Regard to Women,"and the second was about the Gotten -berg system* as it regulates'the liquortraffic. There was a large and fashion-able audience at each affair and the en-thusiasts who arranged: the affair werewell pleased with their plan of educat-ing their friends In the cause. .'

Here is a comment on the progressof: suffrage ?"ln Philadelphia from thepen at Peggy Shlppen. She says:"Apropos of ;the7"wouldbe ? lady voters,,and In spite of so called interviews and

other more or less imaginary expres-sions, the action of the legislature withregard to the bill introduced this ses-sion, and which led the fair ones to thecapital in amicable belligerency, thefate of the bill- surprised no one, un-less the 'antis.' I think that the suf-ragettes went up to Harrlsburj simplyas a tactical step to keep the subjectalive and before the people. It wasaltogether an educational measure,and to many of their leaders It was, Isuspect, a pleasant surprise to find thatthe committee had done them the cour-tesy of a report. At least those with,whom I spoke expected it never to beheard from again. On the whole 'it ismy own personal opinion that hadfavorable action been taken now by thelegislature and had the measure beensent now to the people it would havebeen "\u25a0 disastrous to. the cause, as thepeople are not yet prepared for it, andit must have been a crushing defeat,likewise a terrible setback. Onlya fewpeople, you know, enjoy being on thelosing side. As a rule, nevertheless,the losing side is that of the advancedthinkers. When your measures win ItIs because the rank and file havecaught up with you. Then it is 'up toyou to take a brace' and do some morethinking."

Such, according to this comment, isthe intellectual aristocracy of the suf-fragette, who Is only a little in advanceof her time in thinking that women areon a political as well as mental parwith their big brothers.
