TREBILCOCK. 0 A bill is now before the Provincial Parliament of Ontario, having for i1a .object the granting the power to nnmarried ladies and widows of voting at Parliamentry electionsa. The members of the W.C. T.U. have been busily employed during the past week circul~ti ng petitions and gettin!l signatures to them, the object of which ls to show to the 1nembers of tl;e Legislative Assembly how desirous public opinion is that the bill should become law. As to the justice of th eir demands, there can, .we think, be b"Jt one opinion. If l ~tdies can holrl property in their own name and have to pay taxes on the same, why they certainly can claim the right to vote on all questions which effect the welfare of the country. They have been given franchise for Municipal and School Trustee elections, and in all probability they will soon have the full power of the franchise granted to them. There is, however, a strong prejudice in the minds of m any people against women being mixed up with politice. They say it is unwomanly and unladylike to see women crowding around a polling bonth nn election days, that women's true sphere is ia the home, 11ud that ae a goneral thing women know nothing about politic~, because they d o not care to read political matters, and 1 ,he majority of them are strongly prejudiced one way or the other, and therefore it would be better for them to keep out of political arena. The ladies urge that were they given the franchise they would mostly be on the side of good enactments and that they would be a strong power on till temperance questions, and their vote and influence on that side would q uickly drive intemperance from our lund. We fear the ladies are a little too sanguine in their expectations on this q u1>11tfon of ttimperance, and our reason for thinking so is that the power t o vote is not to be granted to all women, but merely to unmarried Indies and widows. Now, if tho women- the wives imd mothers of those who have been ruined through drinkhad to lmve votes we have no doubt that they would soon drive intemperance from our land. But such i~ not the case, they have no power in the matter, but m ert!ly spinsters and widows. Auel it h as been our experience that in their case they are just as much divided on this question as the meu. In fact in nearly eYery case their opinion is just the opinion of their father or their late hul!lband ei>:pressed. Were they strong temperance, then their d aughter or wid0w will be of the same opinion, and were they of a eontrllry opinion, wby then the ladies will be found likewise, and on all other politicai questions they are very much the sama. But, then, we are living in an age of greai. changes and pro~ress, and we frequently have to throw away old ideas 1d cherished notions and in11titute for a1 t hem more advanced and radical idea.a ; and no doubt this question as to the a<lvisibility of giving ladies the franchiae is on ti of them. Of late years, by force of circumstances, women h·aTe been crowded into numerou~ spheres formerly occupied by the male sex, and now they are entering politics, and perhaps before Jong they will be running for parliament. If things should come to that pass, we may expect great measures enacted. No doubt one of the first will be to put a h eavy tax on old bachelors, and we shall surely have a law passed compelling all married men to be in off the streets and home with their wives every night at 9 o'clock.
