Dundalk welcomed Mrs. Pankhurst today and tomorrow- the people of Belfast will listen to her recital of how suffrage will help the sweated wo men of that city, and on Friday, she will officially wind up her tour at the ancient City of Derry. It is more than likely that before she returns to Kngland. she will also visit Portrush. the fashionable Irish watering place near the CJIants' Cause way. Here Lady Sybil Smith, Miss Eva Macnaghten and her brother, the Hon. Malcom Macnaghten of the famous Clan MacnaKhtcn. assisted by Mrs. Cousins, Mus. Bac the local suffrage organiser, and by II. T. Barrle, the Nationalist M. P. for the district, have been hold ing a regular woman suffrage "fest." and have succeeded In arousing some spirited enthusiasm for this cause among the "smart set" of the north of Ireland. If Is expected that Mrs. Pankhursfs visit will give a new lease of life to the suffrage agitation In Ireland. Still there has been nothing sluggish about the Summer activities of the Irish, suffragettes. The Irish Women's Fran chise League has been particularly active around Dublin and frequent out door meetings have been held at Phoenix Park and down at Kingstown by the shore. The campaign has been hotly waged all over Donegal, Derry and other northern counties, especially in the country districts. Farmers Take Interest. At a big meeting at Dunfanaghy Courthouse, attended by farmers for miles around. Hugh Law, the National ist M. P. for north Donegal, made a powerful speech for woman suffrage and offered a resolution supporting It to those of his constituents who were present, which was passed unanimous ly. Peter Kerr-Smiley. of County An trim. Is another Ulster Nationalist who Is tacking the cause of the suffra gett. All told, a majority of the Na tionalist party have pledged themselves as friends to votes for women." The suffrage societies of Belfast have been doing their level best during the past few weeks to force a public in vestigation of the conditions of sweated female labor in the linen trade recently laid bare In the annual re port of Health Inspector Bailie. The incredibly underpaid women of Bel fast, many of whom earn less than cents a day for making "band-made" sh;rts. constitute an obvious example, they urge, of the callousness of a male electorate In dealing with the ex ploitation of women labor. Miss Wary Galway, the well-known labor leader, has been especially promi nent in the agitation, and Is pressing on the women of Belfast the great need for united action In this and the other social exposures that so particu larly concern women. From here ft la only a short step, for Mlys Gal ay Mrs. D. W. Elliott, and the othen wo men leaders to point to the ote as the only remedy that can permanently In sure decent conditions of working and livelihood for the working woman.
