'The Service Franchise, 1884. The footman complains to the maid that household servants were not going to be recognised with the right to vote. This relates to the recently introduced Franchise Bill. Gladstone's Liberal government had started work on this matter after pressure from the Radicals, and it proposed the creation of a new franchise for those occupying lands or tenements worth £10 a year or more. From Punch, or the London Charivari, March 15, 1884.
