A WISE SUGGESTION.

The news from Cuba is that Amer
toned Consul General Lee to ask the
United States Government to station
two warships in that harbor. Secre-
tary Congosto has called upon General
Lee to protest against such a move
ment, declaring that it would be taken
by the people to be offensive, and that
the officials of the army and the city
could and would protect all Americans
and their property against possibility
of any outbreak due to the anti-Amer-
ican sentiment. But it is added that
General Lee replied that the presence
of American warships should not and
would not intensity feeling. On the
contrary, he thought that the exchange
of naval courtesies would do good, and
tect our people in Havana. He felt
that he ought to comply with the peti
tion and ask the President to station
two warships in the harbor, but he
people of the Unated States agree with
the petitioners that 1t would be an act
of prudence 10 locate two of our navy
at Havana. and that by no possible
stress of construction the act could be
construed TO be unfriendly to Spain We
are at peace with that country. Her
ships enter and remain as long as they
please in our harbors. and are well
come Why should there be any fear
OF offense if our ships enter a Cuban
harbor?

WOMEN IN GOVERNMENT EN-
PLOYMENT

The German Government asked the
United States Postal Department for
information regarding the employment
of women in official positions in the
United States. A report has just been
made as an answer to the request,
showing that there are nearly 5000
postoffices in charge of women, that
S0,0V0 women are employed by the
out the country, and that 116 have
especially high positions in Washing
ton in the Postal Department. 1t is
added that these women all give sat
isfaction and that they are paid the
same as men, that is. they receive as
high wages as do men for similar work.
The Record Union" in all it's pro-
testing against the employment Of wo-
men in the places naturally belonging
to men, has held that if they are to
be so engaged, they should have wages
equal to those paid to men for like
services. Otherwise the employment Of
women tends to lower the wage rate
of men and lessen their ability as home
providers. The Government therefore
sets good example in its Postal De-
partment by paying the same wages
to the two sexes.
1t would be an interesting subject Of
inquiry, however, to ascertain whether
the wage rate for men in the Postal
Department is not too low, and whether
the induction of women into the de-
| partment did not produce this low
scale. Some one should engage in such
an inquiry, for without it We cannot
form a correct judgment as to the ac-
| tual result of the employment Of wo-
men.
Moreover, while it is true that in
the Postal Department men and women
are paid alike for like service, it is also
true that this example has not been
followed in the business world and that
in commerce the girl with the pencil
in her back hair has continued to
come into competition with male labor
by wage underwriting. The recital there
fore of the Postal Department has very
little value. If that department should
to-day cut down the wages of all it's fe-
male employees 10 per cent, and leave
the wages of the male employees unaf-
fected, the women would remain just
the same.
Unquestionably the example of the
Government in employing women in
mems places has stimulated and en-
couraged similar action in trade, but
not beyond the mere fact of employ
ment. For as is we'll known in ninety
| nine cases out of hundred women re-
ceive less wages than men for similar
service, and to just that extent do a
direct and positive injury to men as
wage earners and as those to whom the
nation looks to build up homes to for
tify the Republic.
| But If women are to be employed; If
1t is hopeless to prevent injury to them
by keeping them the conservators of
home and preventing the decay of the
domestic instinct, let them demand
and insist upon receiving for their SER
vices precisely the same wages that
are paid to men for similar services.

of an ideal from years of devotion 10

And what is this upward triumph over

grows broader and yet more silent at
every forward step and backward
glance. There, alone with the Highest,

 London, April 1.-The Times will to- morrow publish dispatch from Aths ns saying that the popular impatience with the present condition of affairs is in creasing and that demands are made in various quarters for an immediate declar- ation of war by Greece against Turkey. The kings inaction is dsnounced by those who are anxious for the opening of act ual hostilfties The government journals continue to enjoin patience, but they have little effect. The eXcitable populace, which has set it's heart upon war; will not be balked in its desire.

Tfa= seed of discon.ent is sown by enemies of the government, who cir culate the rumor that humiliating sur render is meditated. Even the king, de spite the sympathy felt for him and the popular feeling in his favor, does not es- cape malignant criticism.
 The daily arrival of voluteers adds fuel to the flames of excitement. These volunteers are really source of weak ness and add to the embarrassment of the military authorities, who must pro- vide them with arms and uniforms and transport them te the frontier, notwith- standing their unfitness. One hundred and fifty Cypriotes arrived in Athens to- day. They marched through the streets bearing with them a banner demanding the union of Cyprus and Greece
