We are delighted to see that those able and efficient

organisers, Lord Cromer and Lord Curzon of Kedleston, have not let the grass grow under their feet, but have issued, in conjunction with a large number of other prominent men, an "Anti-Woman-Suffrage Appeal," which appeared in all the newspapers of Thursday. The letter thus influentially signed points out that there is every reason to anticipate a renewed outburst of activity on the part of the supporters of the Conciliation Bill. It therefore becomes an immediate and urgent duty for those who hold the opposite view to make the country understand the gravity of the issue before it, and to realise that " modified and restricted enfranchise- ment can only lead to much bolder and more dangerous proposals at no distant date."
