Irish Sea, between Ireland and Scotland, having a population of 29,272 women and 25,486 men. [35] 4 Clement's Inn, Strand, London, W.C. [36] See E. Robin's novel, _The Convert_. [37] By Lawrence Housman, Feb. 11, 18, and 26, 1909. [38] See E. C. Wolstenholme Elmy, _Women's Franchise, the Need of the Hour_. [39] Wolstenholme Elmy, _ibid._ [40] This right is possessed by women in Scotland and Ireland also. [41] This is in direct conflict with the statute (13 Vict., c. 21, sec. 4) providing that women enjoy all those rights from which they are not expressly excluded. [42] London, like other capital cities, is regulated by a separate set of laws. [43] Applying to England and Wales. [44] The right to vote is a condition necessary for the holding of office. [45] See the Married Women's Property Acts of 1870 and 1883. [46] See the article by Mr. Pethick Lawrence in _Votes for Women_, March 3, 1909. [47] London, S.W., 92 Victoria Street. [48] Valuable information concerning women in the industries is given in the programme of April 4, 1909, of the London Congress of the International Woman's Suffrage Alliance. [49] Ansiaux, _La reglementation du travail des femmes_. [50] See Mrs. Pethick Lawrence, "Women and Administration," _Votes for Women_, March 12, 1909. [51] See the article of Alice Salmon, _Zentralblatt_. [52] For a survey of English conditions affecting women we recommend _The Women's Charter of Rights and Liberties_, by Lady McLaren, 1909, London. [53] In Canada there are municipal elections, provincial parliamentary elections, and elections for the Dominion Parliament. [54] See the Report of the Woman's Suffrage Alliance Congress, Amsterdam, 1908. [55] See the Report of the International Women's Suffrage Alliance, Amsterdam, 1908. [56] The last two arguments are easily refuted. [57] Woman never reaches her majority; she must always have a male representative. [58] The husband still remains the guardian of the wife. To-day the wife controls her personal earnings, but merely as long as they are in cash; whatever she _buys_ with them falls into the control of the husband. [59] See the Report of the International Woman's Suffrage Alliance Congress, Amsterdam, 1908. [60] See the supplement, "Opposed to Alcoholism," in _One People, One School_, for April, 1909.
