Why Women are Paid Lsss Than
Men

lcauol d. Wright In the Forum
There are potent and logical rea-
sons why women arc employed at
so low a rate which cannot be
overcome by any considerations,
either social, or economic, or leg
islatjye. The considerations are
interesting and account conclu.
sively for the present status of al
lairs relative TO women's wages.
The reasons are as follows:
Firstly, stepping out of indus
trial subjection and general sub
lection TO man, woman comes into
the industrial system of the pres.
ent as an entirely new economic
factor. If there are no other rea-
sons, this alone would be sufficient
10 keep her wages low and to pre-
vent their very rapid increase.
Secondly, a woman occupies 0
lower standard, which is caused
10 some extent by a lower stand
ard Of life, both in physical fea.
lures and in mental demands. She
is also the victim OF the influence
OF the assistance which she 70.

BY direction Of the senate sub.
committee on Indian affairs, Sena-
tor Platt reported favorably the
bill to ratify the Strip agreement,
and asked unanimous consent OF
the senate that the bill be made a
special order for the first Monday
in December next. While the
matter was under consideration
Senator Morgan observed that
eight and a half millions was a
big sum to be paid, even to the
Cherokees, and he wanted to be
very sure that the money did not
go TO line the pockets Of those moi
entitled to it.

from her family and friends. This
lowers her economic standard to n
great degree, while the lack OF
physical endurance interferes with
her industrial productivity and
compels her to stand upon a low
er plane in this respect than does
man. This reason acts strongly,
not only upon quantity but upon
quality of work performed.
Thirdly, she receives low wages
through an insufficient equipment
for life work, which is not the re-
suit of incapacitv of mind or lack
of skill, but is due largely to the
hope that the permanence of work
will be interrupted by matrimony.
Inferior work is often the direct
result of the same hope; the one
is the sure complement of the
other. The lack of technical train
ing, from which training she has
shrunk, has caused her to occupy
an inferior position, or rather to
remain in such position. She does
not feel warranted IN spending
years, if required, in equipping
herself for the best service, and
this is true to some extent in the
higher grades of employment now
sought by woman. This, in con-
junction with another fact, largely
accounts for her low remuneration
in general. The other tact is that
when occupying a good position
she does not always fill IL with
the same assiduity that accom-.
panies a mans service. She has
not the responsibilities, either of
family or society, to lead her am
bition to secure the best results,
and she is not, therefore, stimu.
lated by the powerful forces which
stimulate a man to do his best in
whatever line he may find his
life cast.
Fourthly, woman has lacked, so
far, the influence which comes
from combination and association.
She works in an individual oapac-
ity and with the weakness of in.
dividual effort. See has not learn
ed the power of combining her
forces, nor the powerful inhu-
ence which comes from combi-
nation, as men have done. Furth-
ermore, she has not been a politi-
cal factor in society. She has no
influence except as the influence
of men has helped her, and this
has been often too selfish to be of
any practical benefit to her. Com
petition, profit and business sue
cess are tar more powerful than
any sentiment or any feeling of
knightly chivalry. This position
is well illustrated by the move
ments IN England and in this
country to reduce the hours of la
Dor. Long before any legislation
took place fixing the hours in GER
tain industries at ten or less, in
those industries where men solely
or principally were employed, the
hours lad been ten or less. 1t
took legislation, positive enact
ment and the power OF the govern
ment to bring the hours of labor
of women and children to an
equality with those of men. The
lack OF direct political influence
must be considered as constituting
a powerful reason why women's
wages have been kept at the min
imum.
Filthy, as woman has come in
to the industrial field as a new
economic factor, the pressure to Sc
cure positions has uIeatvi --~-r
PIy aftogeun1r Uur VI proportion to
the demand. and thus every posi-
tion she might occupy is sought by
many, so that her remuneration is
within the power OF her employer.

The government Indian COM

weeks at Tahlequah urging our
people to sell them the Out

Then in turn the Cherokees sent a

spent more than half a year urging
the United States to ratify the
agreement, but which they finally
refused to do.

Council will have another
whack at the Strip agreement, as
it has been knocked into a cooked
hat" by the senate committee.
The question as to the title to that
country has been thoroughly set
tied and 1t is cafe to say that the
Cherokees will not worry about the
sale. But if council should de-
eide to retain the Strip, and not
sell it, there will be at least sew
enty people very mad. So it is
hard to tell what will be done.

The Grand Canon Of the Colo.
RADIO river, in Arizona. IS now for
the first time easily accessible To
tourists. A regular stage line has
been established from Flagstaff
Arizona, on the Atlantic IL Pacific
railroad, making the trip from
Flagstaff to the most imposing
part OF the Canon in less than ~
hours, The stage fare for the round
trip Is only 5000, and meals and
comfortable lodgings are provided
throughout the trip at reasonable
price. The view of the Grand
Canon afforded at the terminus of
the stage route is the most
stupendous panorama known IN
nature. There is also a trail At
this point leading down the Canon
wall more than 5000 feet vertically
to the river below. The descent
OF the trail is a grander experience
than climbing the Alps, for in the
bottom of this terrific and sublime
chasm are hundreds of mountains
greater than any Of the Alpine
range.
