The meeting was called to listen to an address by the Honorable Rlngrose on the-suffragette movement in England, but the debate that ro'lowed took' a wide range. " .' Louis J. Marshall was the' offending speaker.- He was for votes for women, he said. "HI mother wss a woman and he had married three." He had no vott himself, an he was born in Nova Scotia and he had never been naturalised. Mar shall seemed to have a grkivanc that he did not explain, but he "wagted them to know that they couldn't touch him." Then followed the reference to the pres idents. ' :; Rlngrose told the speaker as. an Eng lish barrister that "his speech was in execrable taste'" and that he' needn't imagine that the British empire would worry about him If he got into trouble through breaking American laws. , ' Rlngrose said that while the suff ragette movement lri England had at tracted, many freak advocates, it was yet a sane and serious-one, and woull make Itself felt Women, he said, could measure up to any of the- requirements for the ballot that the state might ask of men, and that the, American prin ciple of government resting on the consent of the governed and no taxation without representation, ' demanded that they should have the right to vote. ..
