If they do show her attention their notion mily be Interpret ed us un upprovnl of mllltnnt methods This Is the choleo of ovlls which Mm. Puukhurst's visit hns forced upon tho American women, and a good many of them nro resenting It. The Woumn's I'olltlcal union litis taken tho bull by tbu horns nnd cabled to the prospective visitor nn Invitation to a public dinner. The Invitation has been accepted. Hut never wus hospl tallty preceded nnd accompanied by so much hostility. A solution Is to follow Mrs I'nnk- hurst's own cxnmple nnd leave her alone.

But the Pankiiurst society, nlono among the English organizations, tins never extended a slnglo courtesy to an American leader, not even to Mrs. Catt, the International president "Why all this tnlk or what wo shall or shall not do for Mrs. I'linkhurst?" said Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, presi dent of tho National society. "Why not do Just as Mrs. I'linkhurst docs when wo visit England? I have been thero repentedly, Mrs. Catt hns been there, other presidents of our organi zations have been thero. Hut 1 have yet to know of a luncheon or n din ner or n reception being given by Mrs. Pankiiurst or her society for nny of us.

Tho National society gnvo n reception for her, nnd thero were dinners nnd luncheons nnd flowers nnd carriages for her wherever she went Since then we. for our part, hare been In her country, but the Women's Social and Political union has never extended nny of these cour tesies to us. Wouldn't the natiirnl In ference bo that Mrs. Pankiiurst hud signified thus her own desires and that we should be doing the simple and sen sible thing If wo did not extend to her the courtesies she forbore to extend to us? "It is true that, as I was reminded by some one the other day, 1 have spoken and lectured many times In England. But I never received one penny for ltl Not only thnt, but I never had n carriage furnished to tako mo to tho hall. I hired my own. if I marched In ono of their parades 1 bought my own snsh. And what was truo of me In these circumstances wns truo of other American women. "I honor Mrs. Pankiiurst ns n wo man, while I disapprove of her meth ods. 1 regret for two reasons thnt sho Is coming to this country now first, because at this time wo need to focus all our'owu attention nnd all tbo pub lic attention on our own work. Her coming wfll dlstrnet the attention from our Issues nnd our methods, "In the second place, she Is coming here to raise monoy for her work In England. Thousands of people will pay to pee and hear her, nnd that money will go abroad with her. 1 am sorry, becauso this Is n critical 0m .Wttti as, ud we need money," ha..
