women's Need of the Ballot.

What need of the ballot have wo-
men? Ask men why they need it..
"For our protection" they will re-
ply, "for the protection of personal
property and family" If women
be the weaker sex, then for those
objects they need suffrage more than
do men. "Not So" we are told,
"for men, especially husbands, are
the natural protectors of women
and their rights" But there are
more appeals by women to the law
for protection against those natural
protectors" than for any other cause.
In our earlier history, after man
had acquired certain amount of
property and taxes paid, he was
allowed the suffrage to better guard
his possessions. Women now own
and control property and pay taxes
but have no vote to protect their
property against inequitable taxa
ton, or against other infringements
of their property rights. In 1874
it was brought to the notice of the
Connecticut legislature, that color
ed men though not allowed to vote,
were taxed, in violation Of one of
the basic principles of our nation.
Our lawmakers readily saw the
wrong of this and promptly exempt
ed the property of colored men from
taxation until they were given the
elective franchise. Men had no
difficulty in perceiving the injustice
of taxing colored men while denied
the suffrage, but continue blind to
the wrongs of taxing women, black
and white, while still holding the
ballot from them.
The Connecticut legislature lately
defeated a bill to relieve women
from taxation while disfranchised !;
and subsequently rejected a bill CIV
ing women the right to vote at all
town, city or borough elections. The
only reason urged against the bill
was that not one-third of the women
wanted to vote. But, ifit were right
for women to vote when all desired
that right, it is equally just to grant
the right to less number who wish
to use the ballot. Many men care
nothing for the elective franchise
and seldom or never use it. But to
suggest that all men for that reason
should be disfranchised would be
deemed preposterous. There are
few women whose conditions are so
pleasant that they want no change,
and a much larger number who
have become accustomed to the
Limitations imposed upon them;
they have walked SO long in the
narrow grooves cut out by custom
and habit, that they refuse to try
wider and better paths. While the
law withholds its protection from
young girls, whose minds are too

THE LITIGATION ENDED
c., III. & ID. AND UNION RAILWAY COM
PANY ADJUST DIFFERENCES.
Visiting Railway officials Speak En-
cOuraginaIy of the Business Out
look for the Roads.

The differences between the Cincinnati,
Hamilton & Dayton Railroad Company and
the Union Railway Company. which have
Leen pending since 1891, when Alabama
street was closed. were yesterday adjusted.
The Cincinnati Hamilton & Dayton asked
damages from the city and the Union Rail-
way Company for shutting off its city
freight depot TO its patrons by closing South
Alabama street; the damages awarded by
the arbitrator for the city and the Union
Railway Company were not satisfactory to
the c., II. & D.. suit was brought against
both for damages, and the matter has been
in the courts since 1892. The burning of the
c., H. & DIS freight depot in 1893 further
complicated matters. A few months ago
the Cincinnati. Hamilton & Dayton people
were asked to meet committee by the
Union Railway Company and see if some
agreement could not be reached; this the
c., H. 81 d. consented to do and James
McCrea, first vice president of the Penn
sylvania Company; Z. f. Osborn, secretary
of the Big -Four, and " T. Malott were Sc
lected such committee. Yesterday they
met with c. G. Waldo, general manager; ;
General Solicitor Marshall, and the chief
engineer of the Cincinnati, Hamilton &
Dayton lines, and after a couple of hours
conference reached an agreement as to
what damages should be paid to the Gin
cinnati, Hamilton & Dayton Company
which was satisfactory to all parties. After
the close of the conference Mr. Waldo
stated that the result Of it was highly
satisfactory. An agreement is to be signed
by the presidents of the respective COM
panies. The sum of damages fixed upon was
not made public however, it settles the
case, as the three persons named have full
authority to adjust the matter. Mr.. Waldo
said last night that this removed all OBJ
stacles to the company going ahead and
building new freight depot, but he was
or when the improvement would be COM
menced. Mr.. Malott, in speaking of the
fair to all parties and should have been
arranged years ago. This ends the litiga-

James McCrea, first vice president of the
Pennsylvania Company, speaking of the
business situation last night, said: THE
outlook is very promising. There is no
boom, and we don't want one, but in all
business lines l find general improvement.
With manufactures on our lines business
is steadily improving; they are working
more men more hours. and there is a much
better feeling between the employees and
employers than year ago. The Pennsyl
vania Company through the period of the
miners strike handled a good deal of coal,
but with the resumption of work in the
Pittsburg district the business will still
further increase. Aside from this the lines
are handling a good deal of grain, live
stock, dressed meats and miscellaneous
freights, and the earnings are daily be-
coming more satisfactory In passenger
traffic the last few weeks have shown great
Improvement.
Secretary Osborn, of the Big -Four, takes
an equally bright view of the situation He
thinks business is Improving in a legitimate
manner, and that the Improvement will con-
tinue until the volume of traffic is at it's
maximum. He looks for a good business
through the fall and winter months, so
much freight is there to be moved of Vari-
Gus kinds.

The New Mileage a Success.

In speaking of the new interchangeable
mileage which has been adopted in the Cen
trail Traffic Association territory by forty
roads, Commissioner Donald, of the Central
Passenger Association, says THE inter
changeable mileage book is proving a won
derful success. Few however, comprehend
the magnitude Of the work to be performed
by the bureau. We already have four ex-
pert examiners working on the returned
slips, all of which are sent to the bureau
from the various railway ticket officers that
have exchanged tickets for them. These
signed papers to verify the signatures, and
this is the work of the experts. Then, the
asserting of 10000 mileage slips daily is
great undertaking, and we find that soon
we will have to add to our number of clerks
doing this work. We find that the main
purpose Of the tickets, namely, to prevent
scalpers selling mileage from one book to
several personals successful. Within the
next thirty days the sale of the inter-
changeaple mileage books will increase inn
mensely, for the reason that by that time
all of the old-style books will be used up.
/ believe that the system will commend
itself to the railway interests that it will
become practically universal. 1t is the only
way so far discovered to prevent unscrup
uous persons from getting 2-cent mileage
through Misrepresentation, according to the
method successfully used with the old mile
age tickets

c. G. Waldo, in speaking of the affairs
of the Cincinnati. Hamilton & Dayton. said
that the lines were now making the hand
soonest earnings at any time in the history
of the road, both freight and passenger
earnings being highly satisfactory. Every
locomotive and car the company owns in
running order is in service. While the ship
ments OF grain to Toledo and Detroit are
not quite as heavy as a month ago, they
are still quite large, and the coal traffic
has set in heavily, the road now handling
from 200 to 225 carloads of coal for the
manufactures on it's line and to the lakes,
and this business, like that in all classes
of freight, is limited to the cars to be
commanded The track of the entire syS-
tenn is in excellent condition, as is the pow
er. Chief Engineer G. A. Wilson has the
plans for the new shops at Lima completed,
and will let the contract next week. The
shops complete will cost $4,000, and the
work will be pushed after once started, the
company hoping to get a portion of them
to be constructed on the most modern plans
and provided with the most improved ma
chinery. Mr.. Waldo says the outlook for
business over the c., H. & D. could hardly
be more promising. The last year the bus
mess of the indianapolis division has been
much more satisfactory than in many form
er years The company hope to get the
terminals at this point and the city freight
depot soon in shape to handle business
much more satisfactorily to their patrons
and the company.
