THE SUFFRAGETTES.
THE LETTER-BURNERS. London, December 9. Speaking at a suffragette; meeting on Saturday night, Miss Christabel Pankhurst, referring to the pillar-box outrages, said: “We are told that these attacks on letter-boxes may cause the most heart-rending distress to many innocent and needy persons. “We are reminded that postal orders may be destroyed, and never reach those for whom they were intended. Well, suppose a poor charwoman loses a postal order. She may be thankful if at such a price she makes a step nearer the great goal of enfranchisement. Those who burn letters are fighting above all for poor under-paid women.”
