PREMIER iN
SUFFRAGETIES

Hon. R. L. Borden Polite but
Firm. in Conference with
Delegation

THREATS OF NO AVAIL

Canadion Government Not to be Swayed
by Threats or Militant Tactics—Wam-
en of Canada Capable of Forming
Their Own Opinions on Question

A complete report of the re-
ception by Hon. R, L, Borden of
the suffragette deputation in
London has just reached us. The
Catiadian premier, in dealing

ri with the ladies of the deputation,
Flexhibited the firmness and tact

which might have been expected
of him. After explaining the
provincial control of the fran-
chise, which alone would prevent
the introduction in the federal
parliament of any suffrage mea-
sure, Mr, Borden gave his rea-
sons for refusing to express any
opinion as to the woman’s suf-

frage movement in Great Britain, |‘

and added:
‘Now, so far as your action at
the present time is concerned, I

would like, with all respect, to
make one observation, and that

is that I think the women of
Canada are sufficiently capable
and intelligent to judge these
matters for themselves, 1 would
like to add that I should be most
happy to receive any delegation
from Canadian women for the
purpose of laying before me and
impressing me with their views.

“T do not want you to be led
into likening too closely the con-
ditions in Canada with those in
the United Kingdom. I do not
profess to understand those of
the United Kingdom as well as
you do. It would be very foolish
of me to assume otherwise; but
Idoknow something of the con-
ditions in Canada, and I am not
aware that the laws of Canada
in any of the Provinces at the
present time are unjust to
women.
Dominion Legislature is concern-
ed, we should be most eager and
willing to make any change in
the” laws in that regard if it
could be demonstrated to our
satisfaction that such injustice
exists.

“You have made comparisons
between the conditions obtaining
in Canada and those of Australia
and New Zealand. I-am not pre-
pared to discuss that subject.
We have made our laws in Can-
ada wisely and fairly so far as it
seemed. possible to do so, and I
have no doubt that the legisla-
tures of those dominions have
done the same thing. Ido not
propose to dwell on the compari-
gona. .

“Allusion has algo bean made
to emigration, andI have little
to say with regard to that. ‘If it
seems good to your society or to
any other society in Great Britain
to give advice on that subject, it
is your own responsibility and
your own matter. _ We shall en-
deavor to deal with our affairs in
Cariada according to what seems
to us to be just and equitable,
and the responsibility. for any
action which you may take in
that regard will be your own and.
not‘ours. |.

Mr. Borden then referred to

Social and Political Union might
advise the women of Canada to
-résort to militant methods, and
said: ‘I de not know whether I
am to construe that a3 8 threat
or ridt.?”"

Miss: Bitratt here interposed,
“Mt, Borden, it is a mere atate-
merit of.fact.”
“Then! paid). Mr. Borden;

whole, and in the interests of
humanity, and any suggestions
of methods of any kind whatever
would not have the slightest i in-
fiuence upon me.” ~

Miss Barratt.--I think it should,

Mr, Borden. If as a statesman
you are informed that a certain
movement— .
. Mr. Borden (emphatically).—
No. I am perfectly willing to
listen to reasons, arguments and
suggestions, and to weigh them
with the utmost possible care.
But if lam to be told that my
political life is to be made incon-
venient, or even perhaps to be
shortened, that lam to act on
this and net on reasoned judg-
ment and in the interests of
humanity—then I tell you quite
frankly that these considerations
would not have the slightest
weight with me,

Miss Barratt.—I had ventured
to hope that you would have seen
that there was reasonable argu-
ment, and that it was the denial
of this argument . which has
given rise to the rebellion of
women iin this country. Like
causes produce like effects,

Mr. Borden:—You will permit
me to remark that the women of
Canada will draw their own con-
clusions and form their own
judgments. I do not at all
imagine for one moment that
they will be wholly guided by
instructions sent from here, I
should not expect it of the
women of Canada, knowing what
I do. -

Miss Barratt.—I was referring
to the memhers of our Own 80-
ciety,

Mr. Borden.---And 1 referred
to the women of Canada as a
whole, and all I can say is that
while I am prepated to give the
utmost consideration to any rea-
sons, arguments, or sugpestions
which may be put forward, I
and my government ‘would not,
if those considerations did not
appeal to us, be influenced by
your attitude or any suggestion | #
of that sort, namely, that militant
methods would be employed in
Canada, to introduce anything of
which we did not in conscience
approve. . ;

British Premier Attacked
Dernoch, Scotland, Sept. 16:—
Prime Minister Asquith and|¢

attacked by two suffragettes
while going on the Dornoch links.
‘The women started by haran-
guing Mr. Asquith and when Mr.
McKenna tried to push them
away, scufflefollowed. Mz, Me-

to his assistance, with difficulty
prevented the women from get-
ting at Mr. Asquith. The suffra-
gettes were marched to the police
station.

Predicts Desperate Struggle

London, Sept, 16.—A Paris des-
patch gives an interview with
Miss Christobel Pankhurst, who
evaded arrest when her mother,
Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst, and
Mr. and Mrs. Pethick Lawrence
were tried for conspiracy, in|n
which Miss Pankhurst, admitting
that she had been living in
France for six months, declaring
her intention of settling perman- |’
ently in Paris, from which city
she will direct the agitation’
against England.

She added: ‘The struggle will
be: carried on more desperately
thah ever, We are ready tomake
every sacrifice.”

gette named Clunas went to the
